It's pretty simple Eden is an easy going type guy who people really like and who is a bit of jokester. KDB isn't an easy guy to get along with because he's a bit of a red ass. Given that Jose is a bit of a red ass it's not really to hard to imagine that the personalities of Jose and KDB clashed. In 99% of the cases you don't want that type of issue occurring. KDB appears to be the 1% exception where his talent is so overwhelming that you put up with his somewhat difficult nature.

That may be true re KDB and the PL but I'd argue the sample size in the PL was far too small to render any meaning ful judgement

Who knows. The team isn't performing given its talent and Romelu is part of that. He's overrating himself whereas the reality might be that he's the Belgian Emile Heskey

Except he's not a new phenomenon. He had 10 and 10 for an atrocious Werder Bremen team. He had 4 and 4 in 8 WC qualifying games. Now to be fair he's playing on a system that puts everything on him for Wolfsburg to score goals, but he's still dominating. He's having a Ballon D'Or type season.

The whole league is silly we still have no idea on KDB playing in the PL because he barely played. It's clear that he and Mourinho clashed. KDB isn't the easiest guy to get along with and he's the type of player who can practice like shit and play at a world class level. Not sure why people can't just accept that he's a world class player. #4 on who scored at 8.06 rating per game. 1st in Europe in assists more than Messi and Fabregas 16 goals and 24 assists in 40 competitive matches with 13-20 matches to go. Decent chance to reach 20 goals 30 assists for Wolfsburg. In the calendar year of 2015 he's been even better with 8 goals 10 assists in 12 games.

Are you sure it was crack and not some acid? In 2012 Hazard was already 2x Ligue 1 young player of the year and 2x Ligue 1 player of the year. Not to mention winning the double with Lille who had won a Ligue 1 title since 1954-1955

KDB = Kevin D'Or Ballon

Ribery is about done and he's more of a left wing and Robben is a right AM/wing

assist today

2014-2015 season 40 games 16 goals 24 assists (includes 3 Euro qualifiers for Belgium) 2015: 12 games 8 goals 10 assists (starting his Ballon D'Or campaign off well)

I'm guessing you've never been a referee as referees carry their yellow card in their breast pocket and red in their shorts

All 3 goals today for Wolfsburg created/scored by KDB. Drew the PK.

He's far from criticism but today shouldn't be one of those days. He had to play four positions today LW,CAM, RW, CM because Oscar Cesc and Willian were so shit. Honestly watch the game again Chelsea has reverted back to passing the ball to Hazard and ball watching hoping he'll beat 4-6 men off the dribble and create something. He was missing passes because bery rarely where his teammates moving to open space.

Matic should have been sent off for a second yellow as Dean was pulling out the card and realized Magic was already on yellow. Southampton was still terrorizing the back line creating chances.

Not complaining about the result as frankly Chelsea was lucky to get a draw and deserved to lose. Courtois bailed out the shambolic defense.

Gee Jose maybe if you rotated players they might not look half dead and the subs would come on looking like they've actually played football in the last year. Done with Oscar Willian Cahill Ivanovic is on my shit list. Good thing Mourinho got Filipe Luis for this squad.

Terrible personnel management by Jose. He's worn out the starters and subs look terrible because they never play and thus never get any feel for the game. Can anyone explain why he bought Filipe Luis?

Wtf are you talking about he engineered the goal and was the only one doing anything at all not much he can do when his teammates were shit.

Wtf are you talking about? He engineered the goal and was the only to create not sure what else he can do when his teammates are shit.

Oscar = pub league player. Cesc = deliciously shambolic Cahill = slow as molasses Willian = useless lump Terry = old as feck Massive overhaul needed this summer. Need new CAM RW, RB, CB and some tactics, pace, and depth

De Briuyne is quite vocal and opinionated so he's not easy going, which explains why he might of clashed with Jose. He's also the rare breed of player who practices poorly but plays at a high level. He's shone everywhere he's been except Chelsea and at Chelsea he barely played. Would he make difference? Absolutely. He can play for any team in the world, the caveat is that his play style might not fit with every team.

If you count Euro qualifiers 2 goals

With 10 Bundesliga matches to go at least one more Pokal Cup match and 1 Europa League match. Maximum # of matches would be 19. He could end up with 20+ goals and 30+ assists *shakes head*

Oh look De Bruyne with a goal and an assist so far in the Europa tie with Inter after 65 minutes.

Sorry, as a former coach in a much more individualized sport the manager is responsible for putting the players in the best possible position to win and Mourinho failed to do that. Sure, the players have to execute but Mourinho is benefitting from having the far superior side in almost every match played. He's also overworked his rotation and it has shown with lethargic performances in the second half of the season. People aren't upset that Chelsea lost, they are upset with how Chelsea tactically pursued the game especially given the red card scenario. To be frank Chelsea is talent deficient in certain areas of the team, but part of that deficiency is brought on by Mourinho's shell game anytime he's trying close out a win. Very rarely does Chelsea step on the gas pedal when they have an opponent in a tough spot. Just look at how Liverpool was able to make a good title run in 2013-2014. They'd blitz their opponent early and take them out of the game. Chelsea takes its foot off the gas and allows the opponent to salvage a result with 10-15 minutes of desperate play.
