People lets first win the league and then we can debate about whether if Mata deserves a medal or not.

Very dull indeed. On FIFA there are many people who use the same tactics and it just pisses me off. Can't imagine how irritated these professional players must get.

Its amazing how a debate can be stirred for a player who did not even play for a second.

We need Mata to help his average team mates beat City.

They self destructed and it was just a joy to watch.

He's one of the many reasons why we are top of the league. One of our best signings ever so far.

Schurles hat trick showed us exactly what we are missing out in the strikers department. Frankly we don't need to build a team around for our striker,all we need is someone who links up well with our attacking midfielders and is strong. Costa fits the bill perfectly and would be a great buy for 32m. Cavani is the better striker but he's way too expensive for us so the next best option is Diego Costa. Our strikers for next season should be- Costa Lukaku Schurle

The other day I was thinking about all the players who could possibly leave this summer and wondered how much we could get from their sale. These are my predictions- Ba- 5m+ Eto'o- free Torres-12m+ Cole- free Mikel-10m+ Marin-5m+ Moses-5m+ So thats like possibly 7 players out the exit door with 37m in sales. Not bad at all.

I'd rather like to see Kalas get chances than this guy.

Jose says Ibra won't leave PSG so maybe there is a chance of Cavani signing for us.

great seeing a club like Valencia finally get some financial backing. They've trained some incredible players over the years.

Obviously not but the priority should be the League. All I am saying is that we shouldn't be disheartened if we get knocked out by the Turkish giants.

I admire your optimism and belief but it'll be better if we just concentrate on the league instead of the CL. We have a great set of players but just lack the killer instinct of a class striker. We're top of the league and have a strong chance of winning it this year,concentrating on 2 major competitions at this stage wouldn't be advisable as we may lose out on the one in which we truly have a great chance to win. Winning the league this season will give the whole club the confidence to be serious contenders for next season's Champions League.

We should either keep Lukaku as a second choice striker and give him the opportunity to fight for number 1 or just sell him and get someone like Bony. Don't think we really need to sign someone like Bony if we truly are serious about Lukaku. In my opinion,our strikers for next season should be- Cavani/Costa Lukaku Schurle.

no this kid is not overrated at all. Trust me we'd all be drooling over the prospect of signing him if he played for another team. A brief run of bad form is understandable and maybe a game or two on the bench will help him both physically and mentally also. The positive side of Oscar getting rest will be that we'll see more of Willian in the number 10 role.

Don't feel that Liverpool consider themselves as title contenders. For them a top 3 finish will be as good as a trophy because of the numerous seasons without CL football. Also, it'll help them keep Suarez and perhaps attract some stars in the summer. They won't pressurise themselves in believing that they can win the league.

Brendan Rodgers has done some great work at Liverpool so far. A great blend of youth and experience in the team.

losing to Barcelona really isn't a blow. I'd rather like to see them advance thorough as it'll make their schedule more hectic.

We all know how the Torres cycle works. He'll be shit for few games and then for a brief moment will start scoring a goal or two, will look sharp and then BAMMM! will either get injured or suspended.

guess they've moved to the Oscar thread now.

true but that was mainly because Everton had done their homework. Their defence was impressive as well.

The whole game was like a FIFA 14 match. High intensity and solid defending throughout. Glad we came out on top,it was a great match to watch. Proud of the players and Jose.

Signing someone like Shaw will not only improve our left side but also our right as Cesar will get to play his natural position. The future looks good for Chelsea FC.

Argued more with the ref than shots on target.

He won us that free kick! lol but in all seriousness,it was a good performance.
