De Bruyne, De Bruyne, De Bruyne,

BBC and sky reporting this crap? Scary!

Seems Hazard is moving to the middle and Mata to the right. Id rather have Eden on the left: he's not the passer Mata is. Also seems Oscar will be a sub.

yea I remember Mata being very influential the few times he played on the right for us and the Olympic Spanish team. But Eden is much more effective on the left for us, and Oscar should be tried in the middle.

Jose from same article posted above "We will play 4-2-3-1 in the first game, my favourite system, though sometimes I change the triangle and play with one in front of the defenders and two players up," Mourinho said. "Other times I play with double midfielders and a No10. This is a team where we have not one or two but three or four players who like very much to be a No10: [Kevin] De Bruyne likes it, Oscar likes it, Mata likes it, [Eden] Hazard likes it. It is a natural system for all these players to play. "But in another match I could change it. If we are losing, we might need to have two pure strikers. It is something we will work on because I would like to have this capacity to have it ready to play, independent of the players we have. Naturally, we will have four at the back and in my team, the attackers are attackers. Some guys say we play 4-2-3-1, blah blah blah blah, and sometimes the attackers have a defensive job so it is more like 4-5-1. But it is not 4-5-1, it is 4-3-3.

Mata on the right will work better than Oscar on the right.

Is this gonna be televised in the USA?

I still get upset when I think of his line ups early in the season, with Bertrand as a winger.

why didn't he turn down the Chelsea job then?

I actually don't think we need anymore signings. I don't see any player that'll win us the CL and I think our current squad is good enough for the EPL tittle.

ok, so he's more a Mikel than a Alonzo?

Does he have much of an offensive contribution??

no way Van Ginkel is ahead of Podgba or Sterling. Or even Courtinho!

identical to 4231 though.

if Callejon was given playing time under Jose, I'm confident guys like KDB and Lukaku will get their chance if they deserve them

the reason ppl don't want him playing in a 433 is due to his defensive weaknesses. Mou. will use Oscar like he used Modric, and he'll use Mata like he used Ozil.

Mata should be demanding close to 170k

Jose dorsnt decide how much we spend on a player.

What's happening to that guy?

these players help raise billions of dollars for their clubs, would you rather the club executives pocket most of the money? or do you want something similar to the NCAA?

There's more to signing a new player than talent. Attitude is a big factor.

perminant retainers amps" post="708418" timestamp="1372206362"] Imagine Mata, Oscar, Lamps are out, we face a big fish in the CL and simply decide to sit back and field a Defense ---------David Luiz------ ----Ramires----KDB Hazard--Cavani--Schürrle lineup. The counter-attacking prowess of that team can bury any opponent as soon as they lose the ball. David Luiz can make one of his mega aggressive tackles to hand us the ball when we have no right to get. KDB and Ramires can easily break through the midfield, Hazard and Schürrle will race to give Cavani a tap in. lol. KDB over Mikel, Oscar and Mata in a big game. Talk about new signing hype. As things stand right now, Kdb and Shurluer will not start over anyone we currently have. Maybe Schuler at RW

most ppl saw Eden as a Balon dor type player. I don't think you can find o post were anyone would say Mata was significantly the better player.
