Liverpool v Chelsea: Not anti-football from Mourinho, but simply football http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2014/apr/27/liverpool-chelsea-mourinho-simply-football

hehehe this one is good. Especially Cole and his glittering gold. Anyhow, I don't enjoy any victory as much....besides a tittle as winning against Liverpool and Arsenal. Mourinho has made this is transition period into a joy for me, beating the scousers twice and smashing the gunners 6 to 0. Thank you Mourinho! Oh men I can't wait for next season when Mourinho's team is to be complete!

Good game, but I imagine he's still piss at Mourinho? Read somewhere a couple of months back how he was mad and leaving this summer. Well if he does, thank you for today. Job well done.

Oh men, today Liverpool games has giving excitement and hope to all of us and our players. And if we do go to penalties, I have no fear. Schwarzer will shine!

Said it right at the end, this season has been a good evolution. Top 3 and semis in the cl. Well done Chelsea, well done Mourinho, well done players. Anything extra and your awesome. But really looking forward to next season when we will be tittle contenders from the go!

Uefa gains nothing from expulsions, is best to fine them...... Seems like I was right from the beginning. Just a means to get a slice out of the richest club into Uefa pockets.

Mourinho in 2010: Playing a weakened team is ‘unacceptable’ Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho admitted after his side 0-0 draw with Atletico Madrid that he would like to field a reserve team in their top of the table Premier League game at Liverpool on Sunday. With his second-placed side five points adrift of leaders Liverpool with only three games left, Mourinho is clearly prioritising next week's Champions League semi-final second leg at home against Atletico over their slim Premier League title hopes. Asked on ITV Sport if he would select a weaker team against Liverpool, Mourinho replied: "I think I will but it's something we have to speak about internally. It's not a decision a manager can make on his own." Funny how times, and attitudes, change. Back in 2010, shortly after taking over as manager of Real Madrid, Mourinho was involved in a blazing row with Sporting Gijon counterpart Manuel Preciado after Preciado appeared to do precisely the same thing. In September 2010, Preciado made eight changes for a midweek clash at Barcelona, then made nine changes in the following game as Sporting tried to cope with three matches in seven days. Sporting lost the clash at the Camp Nou 1-0, and Mourinho was furious that Preciado had not played all his regular starters against Real's title rivals noting that: "you can't do this in England." "A team shouldn't give away a game cheaply," said Mourinho about Sporting's team selection. "They should play to the maximum every match. You can't do this in England because you get punished. Let's see if they do it against us. "If they play in the Cup with their first team and against us with their second team, I would be grateful. " The late Preciado, who died in 2012, was furious with Mourinho's comments at the time and hit back saying: "It could just be a bad joke or it could be a provocation for the Barcelona coach," he said. "But if he is saying what he really thinks, I think he is despicable, and a bad professional colleague. "I don't like it at all. If Madrid don't teach him respect, I'll show him. We deserve the same respect that he has. "To say that Sporting, who have killed themselves to win promotion and stay in the top flight, would give up on a game... Who the hell does he think he is? "I don't know the guy because he comes from another galaxy. I haven't won the titles he has, but I have won promotions with teams and won games. I know how to win and lose. "He's used to winning but that will pass. He will lose. If you spit up in the air, it eventually falls back down again." The circus continued to roll on with Real Madrid then releasing a statement condemning Preciado's rebuttal saying that Mourinho had made his comments in an effort to promote the "sporting spirit" that should be present in every match and to "keep the competition clean." The Spanish Football Federation even went so far as to investigate the comments from all parties, and while both coaches escaped without punishment, all Liga managers were told to "moderate their statements" in the wake of the row. The two coaches eventually resolved their difference and Mourinho was one of the first to pay tribute to Preciado when he tragically died of a heart attack in 2012. "Manolo was always an honourable opponent, who I got to know well when he came to visit us in March," Mourinho said in an open letter. "He had everything that I like in a person and in sportsmen: character, openness and the courage to fight against blows. We have been left by a football figure and above all by a very special person. My memory of him will be heartfelt and permanent." https://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/blogs/pitchside-europe/mourinho-2010-playing-weakened-teams-unacceptable-121515648.html

Yup this is true. The club and Roman have wanted attractive Fútbol, well what the hell they expect in getting Mourinho back? If they got him back is because they said fuck it we just want to win and don't care how we do it.

Last two seasons Chelsea won in Europe without Terry. We can still do it!

That sucks about Cech. Get well soon. Is Schwarezer good at penalties?

I don't know about you guys, but I think the final would be just like the UEFA super cup, which was an amazing game!!!! Cause in one side you have two very attack minded team: Real Madrid and Bayern And in the other you will have two very defensive counter attacking team: Chelsea and Atletico. Whoever passes would make for a great final. Here hoping is us! :blue scalf:

Yeah we did that against Barcelona in 09 and fucked us really bad in the second game.

I just hope that if we are winning 1 to 0 in the next game we don't comfort with that lead. We saw what happened against Barcelona in 09, and I never want to see that happen again. If we lose, fuck it we lose, but not keeping a 1 to 0 and lose in the last minute!

I like the Tonis Pulis tactic. He's the man!

Something that pisses me of about Mourinho.....Why the fuck Torres? Please spare us the horror!!!!!!!!

Men if we win the cl I don't care who wins the pl. I'll be static all through the summer! :-P

I still like the lines woman. She was always spot on with our decision. What happen to her? She was too good, that made all the males look bad?

15 is a lot especially as you get older. You lose the desire, passion and other things.

Like if you're name wasn't telling enough. :-)

This. Was never going to be easy first season, knew the team would be inconsistent. Next season is when all this progress should pay off. If not then Mourinho would have turned into another Clough, amazing at their top and then a decline afterwards, like every manager. SAF is an anomaly, not everyone can be like him, maintain yourself at the top for a long sustainable period.

This is getting boring really. Even with the half ass strikers we had the last season we scored a lot. Somewhere the idea and philosophy of two seasons clash. One season of attacking team but faults in defense to another season of well defense minded team to faults in attack.

I take the Azpi as the best thing to come out of this season. Terry not so much, as he ain't for the future. Unless he does a Maldini/Giggs and plays till his late 30's. But I want another CB to step up to the plate like we have done with Azpi for the LB/RB positions. Hopefully next season we can start seeing the emergence of that other CB.

Yeah Liverpool won it. Going to hide under my bed now.

Maybe he should wear more tracksuits :-)

Look I knew coming into the season this is how it would be, an inconsistent team. I expected to finish in the top 3 and get to quarter/semis of cl. Anything else was just a bonus. I was expecting next season when things to pick up, never first season. If you are going to point about Liverpool this season, well let me remind you where they finished last season? So this season was always going to be like this and build for next season. Now if next season we are still like this then we can start panicking. But until then we look forward to great improvement of the team next season.
