  1. He wouldn't get enough chances. Before Eto'o joined he hadn't even started a single game, and got cameos here and there. There's not many, if any, top clubs in Europe who have a 20 year old leading their line, experience is always valued, and moreso for a team like Chelsea who already have so many young midfielders, this is why/how Mourinho justifies playing Lampard behind them, and why i'm sure he got Eto'o in. About pressure, we have 2 strikers who know what its like to play in big games, who have scored goals in Euro finals to CL finals. Lukaku is still learning and his time will come, but i don't see him leading our line just yet.
  2. All about games. If he's still here, Eto'o and Torres will play more than him. He will play sporadically, more times than none off the bench. At Everton he really has no competition - Jelavic has been ridiculous for months, and Kone misses more than he scores - and also not the same kind of pressure to perform.
  3. Counter attack can beat any team, as long as you defend well. The style Atletico play is not too dissimilar, but they have really aggressive players all over the pitch, who give you no space, before hitting on counter. While Chelsea sit back and wait for opportunities to counter. We won't really dominate any decent team possession wise with Lampard and Ramires together.
  4. Atletico always have a top striker. When Costa leaves, they will get someone else and he'll do just as well. I'm jealous
  5. He does well the majority of the time, good option to have
  6. Most of the time he just passed the ball to Aogo to cross. Not his night I guess, when he tried to help out defensively Hazard always dribbled him lol.
  7. Our defense was beyond amazing. They dealt with any and everything Schalke threw at them. We had some counter chances in the 1st half and fucked up, but took them very well in the 2nd. Deserved result in the end, and a very good one.
  8. Oscar should be able to do this though, but he doesn't get his head up quick enough, frustrating.
  9. Need more from Oscar and Schurrle in attack.
  10. OMFG. Another counter fucked up.
  11. Need to pass better, space is there to play.
  12. Oscar right there has to hit Hazard, fuck.
  13. I don't degrade anyone, Swansea are a good midtable side with a formidable home record, nothing else. I'm talking of top clubs and you're talking of Swansea, who were just in Championship 2 seasons ago lol. Mata is a very good player with some flaws, but his strengths are among the best in his position and this is why his weaknesses can be worked around by most teams and managers. If Mata plays as RW or RB, he is still the most creative player on the pitch, but he doesn't have the pace for this position. Especially not now with Mourinho's counter attacking style, but he doesn't complain and still tries to do what the manager wants.
  14. I truly wonder what Mata did to you, because you seem to have some weird hatred for one of the best players in the league, who also plays for the team you support. This isn't like Kalou where people hated on an average player, Mata on and off the pitch has only done good things since he came here, yet he's now no longer relevant to some people and should be playing for Swansea, lol. If he leaves Chelsea, he will join another top club and maintain his place as one of the best play makers in Europe for a while yet.
  15. Rossi is a boss, so is Valero. Ronaldo must be licking his lips to face this Juve team.
  16. Lol Azpi only plays few minutes and never at RB since Ivan is never replaced. So it's weird to even draw any conclusion from that.
  17. Neymar wasn't very good today
