What's your point? Scans didn't prove it therefore he feigned it? Your metaphor is completely ridiculous and is entirely incomparable to this situation. Stealing something and accusing another is comparable with the inclusive nature of feeling pain? What if I'm in a room with someone, leave and when I come back they are on the floor in pain but I check and there are no visual signs of injury? That means they are faking it right? Come off it, you don't know what he felt at that moment and just because he didn't bloody break his hipbone in half doesn't mean he was well enough to continue the game. There are varying degrees of injury and pain and not every match ending injury has to be a torn quadriceps.
Who actually posted the information that Hazard even had scans? I don't believe it was the club, no reputable source has even reported it; if I recall the rumour was started by a less than reputable Belgian rag. Besides all sources [laughable at that] I've read have stated it wasn't 'serious' and all the sources claiming he faked it are from rubbish on Twitter. Have a word with yourself, you are just buying into what the media feeds you

What does booing your own players accomplish?
It's like when Benitez had that rant at the fans during his time with us.
It doesn't make sense to boo your own players when you need to bounce.
We need to become better and get out of relegation zone, and people booing won't help.
I'm glad Roman ain't like that, but gives support to the players.

I dont know whether Pat Nevin has credible sources to make such insinuations, but the larger point is Mourinho is gone, whether he was sacked rightly or wrongly is a different issue. Once he is gone this whole mud slinging on who is to blame for the debacle is such a pointless activity. Now everyone gets a clean slate as Abramovich himself stated and it is only fair we also give it to the team.
On another note why isn't it possible for the team to just perform badly without any bad apples? It is sports for christsake every team goes through these phases. Sometimes things don't just add up like the plethora of ways we seem to discover this season in conceding cheap goals.
When the team starts performing again and trust me it will, the board will feel it was vindicated in its decision and we will once again move on for the nth time like the hypocrites that we are. And guess what will happen the new guy will also fail and the cycle will start again only this time with milder fan reactions as it is not Mourinho.
Manegerial Stability is so overrated these days the only stability that is necessary is in procuring trophies with high frequency and that we have managed, if not without a Sir Alex or a Wenger then so be it, I can live with that.

Bertrand: De Bruyne dazzled us at Chelsea training

“It’s so easy for everyone to say how much he has improved since leaving Chelsea but the truth is he always had it. He just, for whatever reason, was not given the opportunity to show it at Chelsea.”

When your a sub you should be as focused in warming up as you are when you start a game. At any given moment anything can happen in both scenarios. A yes man or not it becomes null and void you have to be a team player, when the chips are down, your finest moment or your worst, sulking and being petulant helps nobody apart from massaging your own stupid ego.
If he doesn't want to be sold, show it, if you want to crack on, show it, stop fucking throwing the toys out of the pram and crack on.

If only he showed that passion during that half-assed warm up he might have got on the pitch today.

When are people going to admit it was a mistake to not give this guy a much better chance at earning his place? Because it's pretty obvious. He barely played and when he did was at the right wing.
If you were in his shoes, out of form, not given a fair chance to gain your spot, your manager barely even talked to you and with a World Cup to play after the season, wouldn't you ask to leave? Calling it crying is beyond stupid IMO
Fast forward a couple of years and I'd say it's pretty obvious who regrets the move the most. And it's definitely not Kevin.

I can see people's point that he's young and needs games to improve, but I also agree he's far from an improvement to Iva. They're on the same level in 1x1s if you ask me.
I saw this from Baba against Walsall, against Maccabi and now against Villa. All three VERY VERY VERY weak oppositions and he still made the same kind of mistake.
One team is from Israel league and that says all you need to know, the other is from whatever lower division in England and Villa today showed one of the worst performances I've seen recently, and given I've watched all Chelsea matches this season, it means they were really bad...
So people defending him saying he's adapting to the league, will say what when we look to the other two matches? He went through horrible streaks and decent streaks in all three matches and people think is just a big coincidence, or that he hasn't had enough minutes, or whatever else?
I think he has big flaws to his game, and yeah - kill me Mourinho haters or whatever - he's small. So being small, limited and prone to errors, especially on 1x1 isn't any improvement to Ivanovic. But I do agree that at least he has a ceiling over his head and Iva only has the descending years of his career ahead of him.
All in all, one of the biggest problems we have in this squad is lack of decent full backs. Only Azpilicueta counts as one and as much as I want youth to be developed, if Luís didn't displaced Iva, it won't be Baba who will and Luís is a hell of a FB - who struggled his first months here, just as Baba is - but lately wasn't played simply because José didn't dare to rotate.

And btw "I don't criticise player in public"

Yeah, it might send a message to the group, it might rile the player up, but Hazard is the kind of player that can win you a match in a moment of magic. Only Cesc has that ability with a brilliant through pass (how I miss those, btw), and even then Hazard is much more influencing, important and talented.
So while I don't have a big problem with him being benched today (especially because I think this is going to be a one-time thing), I think it was a mistake and I think what José said afterwards might be an even bigger mistake.
But I also disagree with people saying the problem is Chelsea or Mourinho, except for one good game for Belgium, Hazard hasn't played well at all during the two international breaks. He's in a slump, but especially given the fact he's was coming from his best game of the season - that happened to be with the NT - José had one more reason to play him, so he could carry on from that. Now instead his spirit might be a little bit broken... huge assessment mistake by Mourinho imo.

He should be but under a new coach. Pedro did not do anything. Oscar was awful once again. Willian was decent. We dropped him in midweek and apart from Willian the other attacking mids did not conver themselves in glory. Hazard is playing poor but the problems lie deeper than him.

You can keep on saying he be on the bench, facts point out he wouldn't. Your examples of Ribery and Lewandowski playing before him (as if a system with Muller behind Lewandowski and Ribery and Robben on the wings isn't possible but I'll leave that aside) are not true. He always plays. Ignore the fact Lewandowski was benched against Wolfsburg before his 5 goals in 9 min and 5 goals in two other matches, which have now turned him into the most hyped player in world football. Even though his form and functioning in Guardiola's system were questioned before his latest feats. More goals and more match-winning performances were expected.
Undeservedly so imo, he's world-class but he was simply not the focal point of Bayern before Guardiola changed his set-up.
Yes, let's forget about:
Being a key player in reaching 3 CL finals
Goals in the domestic cup finals of 2013 and 2014
A goal in the CL final of 2012
Three goals and top performances vs Barcelona in the semis of 2013. Remember 7-0, in aggregate, more comfortable than 6-2. He even scored one of those two Bayern goals when they went out.
Top scorer 2010 World Cup (in addition to three assists)
Most goals and assists at the 2014 World Cup
10 World Cup goals in two tournaments
Let's forget the 20+ goals and 10+ assists he pretty much guarantees every season. All of that and he only recently turned 26. Only special thing about Muller is his versatility. I'm getting closer to hearing it all. But I'll stop here. I thank you for the replies.

I just get her on her knees so I don't have to look at them [emoji48]

He can. And has.

Things like 'Cunt' and 'Fuck off' are more than not civil, that's just damn petty and disrespectful. I will put this into perspective....3 days ago over 30 brits were killed on a beach in Tunisia by a 'Cunt' of a gunman....Today Petr Cech left Chelsea, this isn't life or death, it's football. I can't change peoples opinions but using words like I mentioned are wrong, and it's what he hurts me more than seeing him leave.

So do I, so what?
