Well money can buy you the most expensive players and skillful ones out there. But it will never buy you HEART. Those are men who went through despite not having their best midfielder in the competition, despite losing 3-1 away, despite having their star player injured in the first few mins, despite,despite despite. ONLY MEN WITH HEARTS KEEP ON GOING TILL THE END.
It is never over, till the final whistle is blown. Congratulations to fellow fans, Chelsea, Mourinho and THE MEN

This is why Schurrle (and Salah when acclimatized) actually balances the team out quite nicely. Hazard, Oscar and Willian are too similar; we need someone who makes runs in behind and -- as you say -- can stretch the play. I think we should only ever play two of Oscar, Willian and Hazard going forward. Probably means Willian / Oscar rotating a bit more.

So many decisions have gone against us in this game. Torres "offside" that wasn't offside with him through on goal, Hazard handball that wasn't a handball, two ridiculous yellows for Willian, Hazard offside that wasn't an offside. Foul on Ramires when he was the last man. Kick across Schurrle when he was through on goal. How can all these things be a coincidence? When I say Cunt Foy was going to be the ref, I knew we were in trouble.

We've relied on Mata really on the last few seasons. In a way, we relied on Mata as much as Liverpool did Suarez and Bale to Spurs. Where would we have been last season without Juan Mata? Not in third spot anyway. Probably fifth. Wouldn't have won the Europe League last season either.
But Jose comes in and fixes all that. We're a well oiled machine. Jose deserves enormous credit for doing this. We're challenging on all fronts now, Looking like we can win the league, FA Cup and really challenge for the Champions League, which I have no doubt we will be for challenging next season and beyond.
Juan has fallen out of favour. Why? He doesn't fit Jose's system. He isn't changing his game to adapt and to be honest he's probably right not too, But unfortunately for us that will mean his departure. I will still love watching Juan, as I do every player who plays the game with such beauty, Its a shame, but Chelsea F.C comes first in this instance, and so does Jose's philosophy.
£35-40m pounds for a player who sits on our bench week in, week out? For Jose, who must have his mind made up that Mata won't fit into his plans, Is a no brainier.
Will I miss Mata? Yes, of course I will.
Does it feel good to have Jose back, Calling the transfer shots, having some balls and making us a superpower again? Of course I do.
Unbeaten against the top teams, and challenging for honours. This is the Chelsea I missed. This is Jose Mourinho's Chelsea, that won back to back titles and was robbed of a Champions League, when Juan Mata was merely a kid.
The name of the front is more important then the name on the back. Thanks for the memories Juan, but we were Chelsea before you and we'll be Chelsea after you.
In Jose we trust.

I hope Torres realises that if Jose joins Chelsea, Torres will be going.

i seriously doubt that. the club(RM) have confirmed that jose wont be there manager from JUNE1. if jose signs a contract with us saying he will be CFC manager from JUNE2 and we announce it in this way, i dont see anything wrong. ther is no point of ethics here. dint bayern-borussia make a transfer concerning gotze? that dint stop him from playing for them. man united confirmed MOYES to be their manager before the season ended and there was nothing wrong in that.

There aren't enough facepalm gifs in the world to do justice to this piece of crap article.

Err transfer fee is just one part of the financial side of things. What about wages? 175-180k a week for a 5 and a half year contract = another £50m. That's a 100m investment.

seriously??? without torres and just add any bloody striker in this world we would still have won the europa league, scratch that we would not have even been in the europa league in the first place. and secondly 5th in PL. seriously? the way city played this season we could easily have been 2nd, we would have won the club world cup and the only reason we dint win or atleast take the game to extra-time was torres missing a sitter, there is another couple of million. these stats are total bullshit because if we dint have torres, we would have had lukaku/sturridge/DD/falcao and dont prove a single thing. otherwise u wanna know mata's worth for chelsea. take out all his assists and goals and lets see where we stand then.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you possibly the greatest gif on the internet...

Love this. 'Not as good as 7.7 but not as bad as 7.5. Hmm, 7.6 it is!'
