Merged it with this thread and moved to here. Was in the wrong place to begin with that new thread..

Torres possibly facing a 4-match ban because of 'that' scratch... For larger image, click this link - https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BVXB4irCAAALyyE.jpg:large

I know Oscar is your preferred No.10 and that you have provided reasons for it, which are not wrong but judging by your posts in this thread today, seems that you suddenly feel insecure that suddenly Mata did more, as a No.10, than your Oscar yesterday....

Can we just get back to talking things related to Mourinho here? It's getting a bit off right now..

Slightly off topic but somewhat related to the Madrid fans reaction towards Mourinho. Ancelotti whistled for the first time by the Bernabéu

This is almost like when Liverpool were in bottom 3(!) at one point and basically languishing in the bottom half under Hodgson before Dalglish came back in..

Oscar will probably still play as the No.10 with Mata out wide and then rotate their positions as it goes.

Like how he just somehow casually announce Mata will play against Steaua on Tuesday.

Errr, weren't you championing for Mata to start over Oscar and now suddenly worrying that the latter will be dropped??

Real lost the Madrid derby to Atletico today and apparently Real fans were found chanting 'Mourinho' twice outside the Bernabeu then. HA!

Looking at the incident again on MOTD, it look as if Torres didn't actually clip Vertonghen. More like a dive from him.

As funny it may be, that was pretty silly and needless thing for him to do. Wouldn't have been sent off if he hadn't done that.

Juan Mata has scored 3 goals and produced 4 assists in 6 appearances in all competitions against Tottenham. Juan Mata has scored 3 goals and assisted 2 others in 4 appearances in all competitions against Arsenal.

At the moment, one may say Kalou is a better finisher than Schurrle but if anyone says the former is better overall than the latter, then they clearly have a short term memory. Apart from scoring the goals, have people actually forgotten how many brainfart moments Kalou usually produced when he's on the ball?! His final product is very average. He often loses the ball and very easily too as a result of overdribbling with the ball. I remember back then fans were going frustrated and tearing their hair up watching Kalou and his silly moments..

Apart from Mike Dean's brainfart moment to send Torres off for no good reason, thought he did well. He allowed the game to flow and was calm in handling the foul or any skirmishes between players for a big game like this.

Yes, only a 1 game ban for 2 yellow cards. Will miss next weekend's trip to Norwich.

Cannot afford to drop points here. A must win game.
