Fernando

I heard that City wanted the Besiktas coach....

True point. Noticed how he also pushed for goal line technology and now we have it. Next is video technology help for refs. That's what he's been talking as of late.

Well you said it, all depends what we do this transfer window. If we do more buys like Willian and Cuadradro then expect to have the same outcome. But if like Costa and Fabregas then good.

Good points but we will find out next season. I made a point how this season feels exactly like City last season. They won the Capital One and PL but with a very unconvincing display. Then this season instead of improving they regress. So it will be a wait and see mode for next season. Do we improve or regress?

Well he's jus making those comments just to downplay any fail chances he gives to RLC next season. Like I said, all talk and no show this men when it comes to youth.

Mariner: Chelsea have been hard done by refs

Nothing new, heard the same thing about other younger players. All talk and no show.

Mourinho said this: "I think we are getting great credibility with players we sell because we sell good players. Let's see what happens." As much as it sucks to see players we sell do good, that's one thing you have to look at the positive. That we are selling good players not crappy. We did that a couple of seasons ago to Hamburg and that was a horrible buy for that club. If teams see that players we sell tend to do good they more then likely will take a chance to buy from us. So that's the positive aspect of this.

You said: the games repeating themselves year after year That my friend is the equivalent of being predictable. And why you have to curse? Did I cursed at you?

Well if it was that predictable how come no one call it before the draw? A bunch off from what I see. But mostly that's what you get when you only have 8 teams. I repeat we saw the same years ago with English teams. Now it's with Spanish teams.

Because they are the best at the moment. It used to be the same a couple of years ago with Liverpool vs Chelsea....

Lol they left you torn didn't they?

Here someone posted this a couple of pages back: Premier League to lose Champions League spot? Coefficients explained... http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11095/9755210/premier-league-to-lose-champions-league-spot-coefficients-explained

A lot of Porto vs Monoco on people predictions. I bet you that won't happen.

Is Koke like Xavi Alonso? Because I think Mourinho was aiming for something similar at Real Madrid with Xavi Alonso and Modric in the mid. I believe he also wanted to get Matic to play in the mid, so he would have had a mid of Matic Xavi Alonso and Modic. If that was his intention at Madrid, then I see a high probablity that he would try to do the same here. Fabregas like Modric and Koke like Xavi Alonso?

We can play Koke at Chelsea like Barcelona does. If you see Barcelona lineup they had Iniesta, Busquet and Raquitic in the 3. Our 3 are not as great but a 3 of Koke, Matic and Fabregas might be good. And then have an upfront of 3 with Costa, Hazard and whoever else.

Manchester City make enquiry for former Chelsea midfielder Kevin de Bruynehttp://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/manchester-city-make-enquiry-for-former-chelsea-midfielder-kevin-de-bruyne-10115640.html

They have nothing to play for now and no pressure. I don't like those combinations, crazy things can happen...

So what's the stats on those coefficient? Are we losing the top 4 trophy next season?

I'll let @didierforever, answer that for you.

Yes but look at where's Dortmund right now.... The rest of the bundesliga teams don't come close to Chelsea, city, Arsenal and United.

Only Bayern Munich is of any performance measurement. Because the others are not really up there.

Don't understand why we are going for average players. And then we end up saying we suck because we have not great squad. Hello? Stop throwing money away on average players!

Real Madrid has a history of screwing up players. With Peace post a couple of pages back we can add coaches to that list....

A lot of A. Madrid players as of late to be fair. Might as well get Simeone at this point if we are going for his player.....
