I think this discussion has been complete and utterly derailed. Instead of having a mature, calmed discussion about where Jose wants to take the club and what is needed in order to improve our team and the style of play, it is reduced to petty arguments focused solely on tainting the next guy. Please stop it

I know you have not been suggesting that we are ready, but other posters have. I was merely referring to those

Agreed. Investments are needed and investments in plural indeed. We all pretty much know where we need to strenghten, and it is fair, IMO to criticize our team for not playing better football despite the money previously invested. Fair enough. But to claim Mourinho has a team that can play expansive football AND win is a stretch. I agree that we probably need 3-4 new players to compete for the title, let us hope we do get those!

Can't wait for the reaction if we draw the last two or, even worse, lose them. I remember at the start of the season when José's return was announced, and quite a few members told everyone to calm down, and that the team was still lacking players in key positions, a winning mentality, stability etc. And I agreed. Even though we have spent so much money, we are still in transition, whether you like it or not. The fact that we are is a fair point of criticism, but we are. What I dread is the fact that some would rather have Rafa back to replace Mourinho. I mean, if we want managerial stability and we can't get behind fucking Jose Mourinho then who the fuck are we going to support? Yes, you can criticize Mourinho and still want him the be our manager, but some people are taking it too far. On the other hand, you can't blame all our bad results on the lack of a true striker, but it remains a valid point that if we had a 20 goal striker, we would probably be better off. What I would love is a relaxed discussion with no subtle references to sacking Mourinho or blaming only him. Too much to ask for I suppose. The players have let him down several times this season, and while Mourinho has also failed, I wouldn't put his defensive attitude towards him. After that Sunderland game I would have done exactly the same.

Now THAT was a shit performance. The season end can't come quick enough.

Enough of 15 weeks of Torres then?

If we come 2nd instead of 3rd, don't we get a 10 % bigger allocation of the TV money in the UCL or something? If so, that might be worth it.

He's a mug mate, don't mind him.

Some people, perhaps. But I don't care how well it is set up and etc, I and all my real life friends still hate them. Hate doesn't need to be logical.

Lol, wat. Every supporter of other clubs I know hate them, so your 1 article means nothing to me.

Lol, yes, Bayern did.

Very good idea, I support this, great way to get to know the person 'behind the screen'. Would be happy to help, if I am found adequate to do so

My take on this, although I agree with many: Hazard didn't do well enough, but it is wrong to accuse him solely for the defeat, not that I think any serious member do. He should have done better, Ramires should too, but we know that Hazard is worldclass, thus we have come to expect so much of him EVERY TIME. That's what you do with worldclass players, they can't just turn on and off from time to time. He has some way to go before he reaches that level IMO, but he will be so if he follows José's advice. Hazard shouldn't comment on our play to the media in general IMO, but he did, and what he said has been twisted out of proportions. But that's what the media tends to do, so hardly a surprise. I just hope Hazard feels he has something to prove to Mourinho and pushes on. Only thing he can and should do is let his football do the talking. Can't wait to see him with a real fucking striker upfront, and a decent midfield supplying Eden.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I am slowly getting used to see people bashing Jose for his tactics, even by Chelsea fans, but to say you want FSW instead of José is out right cringeworthy and pathetic.

Bring him back. Simple as that really. What a talented young man. As much as I love Cech, we cannot afford to let this guy go.

Fuck off, seriously! Where were you when we beat Liverpool or City? Rafa was fucking shite, apart from maybe playing your beloved Torres. Newsflash mate, TORRES IS FUCKING SHITE. Seriously get off José's back, it makes me cringe and feels so plastic to turn on him AFTER NOT EVEN A SINGLE SEASON. We've improved in the League, played for the title, almost got in a UCL final > Playing for top 4, winning Europa League, watching too much of Torres, watching Rafa's fat, enormous ass.

We gave it a shot, but we were simply not good enough. I don't buy the sentiment that the ref was awful, yes I believe the penalty was a little soft, but it can be given. I actually think the ref had a good game, compared to what else we've had this season. Well done to the boys, the semi finals are not bad considering we're without Matic and it's the first season with José back. Let's bolster up this transfer, get rid of the deadwood and try again! KTBFFH

PARK THE FUCKING BUS! IN JOSE WE TRUST! CAREFREE! And all the complimentary shouts! LET'S FUCKING DO THIS CHELSEA!

Nervous but in good spirit. Whatever happens, happens. We have come so far with a team far from complete. Well done to Jose, the players, the staff and the club. Let's do this!

SLOWLY GETTING PUMPED FOR THIS GAME, LET'S FUCKING DO THIS!!!!

Chelsea TV and ITV4 at 7:45 mate

Rest in peace.

Totally agreed, what a fucking disgrace. Liverpool deserving to win the league because of Hillsborough? What the fucking hell? How about focusing on football, since Hillsborough has fuck all to do with them deserving the title or not? Fucking mugs.

Mate, I am a leftist, but I am merely stating what most Danes think of the current immigration situation, which I am, partly, inclined to agree with. The press is no doubt vilifying immigrants, that is a fact, but they do so because of those rotten apples that make it so tough for everyone else. Radicalized Islam is not making the whole mess any less complicated.

80 % of home robberies are immigrants (in DK). The Peoples Party (nationalist) is predicted to be the biggest party after the next election, surpassing the Social Democrats and Liberal Party. Immigrants are generating a huge deficit when looking at the tax revenue generated by immigrants and subtracting the amount of money the state pays the unemployed and those unable to work. They are overrepresented in criminal statistics, and I could go on...
