If the rumors are true then why would he hand in a transfer request after missing a penalty? Jesus christ...... talk about overreacting and being idiotic both at once. Feel for Jose though, everyone thought he was stupid letting him go but not really if Rom was wanting to go, he needs to shut his mouth though and remember he's only there because he wanted to leave (apparently he originally wanted to go permanently because he missed a penalty LOL... which the club obviously rejected) so to say I hope Jose is watching and to hint that he shouldn't have let him go although it was his choice is really really really really really really stupid.

Fuck me this thread makes me laugh 9 times out of 10! Anyway congrats to Jobi on the award... yes I called him Jobi...

Read somewhere he has created the most chances in the Europa League, impressive.

Looked much more like himself tonight, in the thick of the action, breaking up play, using the ball well, hopefully he can get more games for Valencia I really like this guy and think hes going to be a good player.

Lol Spurs sacking AVB would be worse than when we did it. He still has to find his best team, plenty of players need to adapt. Its funny he went from last season being a great manager for Spurs, breaking the points total to a failure by the sounds of it now haha, stupid Spurs fans.

If Jose keeps faith with Oscar after that dire performance then I don't know. Mata should play against Southampton, be it as a #10 or a right winger or whatever, he needs to feature. We didn't create much tonight, Mata can unlock teams, he needs to play...

Why did Jose blame tiredness? He knew Oscar, Lamps, Ivanovic would all be tired having played more or less every game this season. Hes got Mata/KdD/Schurrle in his squad, he needs to start rotating players or we will end up like this every week, looking very lethargic.

Another fucking box to box player, hes similar to Yaya Toure in a way, powerful and can carry the ball but he's nowhere near as good. Lacks technical ability, blows hot and cold. We shouldn't be looking at him tbh.

Very impressed with him yesterday, was hoping for a good performance from him as hes been quite average for a player with his talent recently but that was much much better. His link up with Eto'o is getting better and better and hes starting to get into the spaces Eto'o leaves when he drifts out to the left wing to get shots off etc. Hopefully he'll get a few goals in the next few weeks.

Match of the day pundits are stupid cunts along with sky sports pundits, you are not going to take them seriously are you right? Oscar was blatantly MOTM by a mile. Anyway Lampard when he doesn't have as many defensive responsibilities makes it easier for him to play, Mikel playing gave him and Ramires the platform to push on and get into the areas they prefer to play, as well as allowing Branna and Azpi to get higher up the pitch. I'm not exactly sure if Ramires was playing right wing or as a central midfielder but he seemed to tuck in at times and we looked like we were playing a 4-3-3 at times and Lamps also looked to be playing behind the striker at times with Rami - Mikel sitting. Interesting as it worked but its still something when you look at the squad we have I'm not so sure if we will see every weke.

Got to say it looks increasingly likely that Mata will be sold in January...

Watched the game back again, our pressing was excellent, the first times its really been effective this season. Hope to see the same against Basel.

Spurs are fucking shit looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

Outstanding against West Ham, Lampard, him or Oscar MOTM in my eyes. Well I'll go with Oscar.

Best performance for Chelsea since the Juventus game I reckon. Did it all, created chances, won the ball back, scored a goal.. what else could you want?

Cabaye is good but Newcastle will probably want 20m plus for him... and as good as he is, I don't fancy Jose paying that. To think he cost them 4-5 million and no top club really went in for him despite a few successful years at Lille.

Fuck me the Belgian media really hate Chelsea and Jose, trying to indicate he wants to sell KdB... Jose likes a really strong squad, he doesn't want to sell anybody, he would maybe loan him but can't see him selling him unless it was a ridiculous offer of £25 million or more for a pretty much unproven player with one good season in a very good league but for a pretty average team where he was the best player...

That ship along with Falcao passed when AVB didn't try and sign him from Porto in 2011. Gustavo won't leave the Bundesliga but would have been an interesting player to buy, naturally a holding midfield player but was given more freedom under Jupp Heynckes at Bayern when he played next to Bastian. Not big physically but a real grafter and someone who wins a lot of tackles and makes a lot of interceptions. Vital player for Brazil.

Wouldn't have been a good idea to rush him back into a game against a physical team like West Ham whose CBs would probably kick the shit out of him.. needs to get back to full fitness, with his injury past no point rushing him, thats ultimately why he ended up so fucked in the first place.

yeah but your both provoking each other and this thread will go on and on and on and on before bannage/someone leaves

its both your faults, stop being immature and leave it for fuck sakes.

yous two need to settle down I think.

jesus what a shitstorm of shit the last few posts in this thread have been

Fuck me not gonna happen, if this is what creating threads has come to wheres the Messi to Chelsea thread....

The thing that has impressed me the most isn't how well he goes forward, unlike the usual traditional flair players he does all the dirty work and he has a good attitude towards it unlike Hazard at the start of last season casually jogging back against Man United, Norwich and other teams when Cole was basically against 2 players at times. Sure you could say thats down to Jose's philosophy/style but I think its more down to the player if I'm honest, he does it a lot better than Hazard, Mata and Schurrle even though they all try to do it as well. Like strike said, I was also quite skeptical and also worried about spending 30m on a player who had played so many years in Ukraine and one year in Russia, he seemed overrated when we first linked with him but hes not. If he can start scoring some goals and getting more assists, the money will have been very well spent. Thank fuck he didn't go to Spurs.
