Everyone was asking about the Canal+ video, no one actually asked Jose about the team news! I guess we'll find out tomorrow about him, Luiz and Oscar.

Classless cowards. I hope they get banned from bringing fans to the return leg.

Yeah, it could really destroy our season if our strikers, god forbid, stop scoring!

I watched the match and thought he had a rather poor game regardless of that incident. All the Athletico players had a bad game, tbf.

Wouldn't mind him leaving now that we have Matic, although we could use him as a squad player. But I think Italy would be perfect for him. That said, it is only the Mirror..

Depends on what our approach will be. I doubt we'll play with a very high block away from home. Don't know yet about Luiz and Mikel, or even Oscar and Ramires because no one asked Jose about the team news in the PC

I'm not sure they will go with 3 at the back against us. Actually, I hope they do. They don't have proper wing backs, we'll kill them with pace down the wings.

Regardless if he meant that to be public or not, he's been saying basically the same thing in the past couple of weeks. For example, on Saturday, after the match, he said "...we could not gamble much (at HT) because I know that our strikers don'st score much..."

Yeah, I remember one in the FA cup maybe that was a Ramires shot that hit Torres and went in. The official site had it down as a Torres goal, but later the dubious goal committee corrected it to a Ramires goal.

No, they're correct. The goals at least, I have no reference for the assists. But for the goals he has 19 in the PL, 3 in the FA cup, 3 in the League Cup, 9 in the CL, 6 in the Europa League, one in the Community Shield last season, and one in the European Super this season. 19+3+3+9+6+1+1=42 goals. EDIT: Fixed. Why does the official site has him down for 43 goals, though?

LMAOOOOO Inferiority complex much? :lol: Good bye, jerk

In a bit of rush so I'm going to answer briefly: - Our defense has been key, but Iva has no way been the best of the bunch. So how is he one of our best players this season? Unless you mean one of our best 10 players this season then I agree. - He should NOT be crossing in the first place. While the lack of finisher in the box is a valid reason, the crosses that do out for a goal kick or throw in are not anyone's fault but Iva's - Azpi was never accused of not closing down crosses. And while some did criticize his crosses, others praised them and said he was a huge improvement on Iva and Bosingwa. Haven't ever seen anyone praise Iva's crossing. Beyond that, Azpi has the technical ability and pace of a fullback while Iva simply doesn't.

That's not a fact, that's just your opinion. I think in defense alone, all of Terry, Azpi, Cahill and even Petr have had better seasons than Brana. I think he's had a decent season. Some great performances and a couple of big goals, but also some poor performances and some persisting issues such as crossing and closing down crosses. Overall average or slightly above that, imo. My belief that he's a CB and should play there has only been enhanced this season.

I like what I saw from them. Their system seems to work very well and suite their players. Can't say the same for Gala.

I'm excited about having Matic back here as much as the next Chelsea fan, I think he's exactly what we needed, but there is no point in denying that his performances against WBA, especially in the second half where he went missing, and against City where he left many gaps and was often ball watching, were below par. I'm not criticzing him for them. He's just arrived here and inconsistency till he settles in with the team is only normal. I'm just saying that he was back with a great performance after a week rest so maybe we do need to work on his stamina and not over play him.

Quite fast? Maybe for the Turkish league, but compared to the likes of Ramires, Hazard, Willian...etc. your players are quite slow. I don't mean this as intimidation or mind game or disrespect, but as far as I'm concerned, Galatasaray are the worst team left in the CL. I'm quite happy that we got you in the draw.

I love this one too.
