Doesn't really make much of a difference. Using only 'mobility' to justify effort is clutching at straws. It's like Arsenal fans using the 'Distance Covered' statistics to prove Ozil is always active against every opponent in matches.

Think you will need some other stats (e.g tackles put in, tackles won, passes made) along with the distance covered to fully justify Fabregas put in the effort against Porto. Otherwise, anyone else could easily run up and down the pitch but if they don't do anything else, then there's no point.

And Terry started that West Brom game...

No doubt he'll get a 3-year extension by the end of the season.

The frustration with Mourinho is understandable but I think it's ridiculous to say he's now a shade of his former self after just a few bad months in his career. Even Fergie went through bad periods and he still managed to bounce back each time and become one of the most successful managers in history. Mourinho certainly needs to change, adapt but it would take a lot more than the current situation to say he's past it.

Well, the article below kinda talks about that issue. Jose Mourinho's methods could be wearing thin among Chelsea players

Yet more BS. His love for Ivanovic is truly astonishing even though he's made 436643538535974 mistakes. Even Cole wasn't this lucky two seasons ago.

Don't forget @stroey too. at you fellas.

He's a pretentious twat who thinks he knows everything that's going on inside the club. Fucking pest!

STOP POSTING NEIL ASHTON'S ARTICLES FOR FUCKING SAKE!!!

Here's something positive - Southampton haven't won any of their last 10 Premier League away matches - D4 L6. However, 3 of those draws have come in their last 3 away games while the other came in last season's corresponding fixture back in March.

Courtois?

They have hardly shown their qualities as a captain, especially in the mess we are in right now.

The Mourinho hate is real.

But that has nothing to do with the donation. Last month wasn't even the first time that no one donated. We appreciate it when there is one but we don't think the members are rich and expect them to donate. Afraid of losing the admin title? Some of you fellas are really more self-entitled than the forum staff here. When you call other people things, you'll find excuses to say like it's nothing. When the mods/admins do it, all hell breaks loose and you'll suddenly turn into a moral police to condemn us.

Oh the things that I would do to see us return to our old selves and get a boring 1-0 win.

But that's not exactly the point here, is it? Besides, you calling others glory hunters isn't much different than what the other members said.

We, the forum staff, can never win, can we? If we are too strict with the rules, people will moan. If we are too lenient, people also moan. If we are as 'evil' as some of you lot make us out to be, at least half of the members will be gone by now. And taking pot shots at the forum for not getting donation is just unnecessary and pathetic.

C'mon fellas. There's no need for petty arguments here. Let's just get back on topic, aye?

Seems 'convenient' of Terry to milk the situation by doing a solo warm-down after the game, knowing the fans will chant his name, the media will pick up on it and write more negative stuff about Mourinho and the club.

While I do understand the reason people are (still) upset over letting Mata, De Bruyne etc go, let's not be a hypocrite here. When we sold them for like 30, 35, 40m (or whatever it was), no one complained about it. Practically everyone was celebrating we got a huge sum for a squad player and people praised Mourinho, the club for that. On top of that, no one really bothered in mentioning those players when we were romping to the title last season. Now, because we are doing shit and they are doing well, people are crying and questioning why we sold them. Silly knee-jerk reaction.

Reactive.

Traitor.

Time to get Mane into the fantasy team this weekend.
