Hybrid Angel

You don't seem to understand my point, or maybe its just me not being able to deliver the message. I never complained about Drogba starting, I was completely fine with it. Read my two posts again, I was trying to point out that using 'the manager knows than you lot' is wrong and critics should be countered better than that. Everybody has the right to criticize and the others have the right to agree or disagree, and if they disagree they shouldn't come up with counter arguments like that.

While I agree with everything you have said, but my main point wasn't that Mourinho shouldn't be supported all the time, I was trying to say its wrong to counter someone's argument like that. Yes he has earned the right for 100% backing from the supporters, but that doesn't make him immune to critics. Critics are pointing out mistakes and we shouldn't agree with anything Mourinho does blindly. Yes we do have to support him all the time but that does not necessarily mean that we shouldn't criticize him. Those two are completely different things and can be done at the same time. To me its kind of a similar situation to Hazard, when people say he should improve his finishing ability it doesn't mean they're not supporting him, they're just criticizing. You can't go out there and say we shouldn't do that because Hazard is a better player than all of us.

If you're saying that we should agree to whatever the manager does solely because of the fact that he is the manager, then that is just wrong. People judge everyday, all the time. If you don't accept that then you're living wrong. If I cannot question someone who has a higher degree than me in a certain field, then what is the point of the word 'criticism'? What you said is just like saying Obama is the president, so nobody knows more than him. The kings and presidents who lead their country to war back in 1914 all knew more than us so we shouldn't say anything to them. Jose is not perfect. He makes mistakes too. I agree with everything you said and I think people who doubted Didier were very wrong, but saying that their point is invalid because they know less than the manager is just wrong.

It would make it an unfair poll mate.

Seems like the king is having fun.

Oh god, it feels like the last time I watched Chelsea play was a year ago. I don't think the West Brom game is going to be enough.

I'm sick of complaining about the international break. I might actually try to enjoy it this time.

Ladies and gentlemen, Demba ba has scored a fucking missile. 124 km/h. And of course, the world should be proud that they have witnessed a Demba ba goal without him falling over.

Why do we always face these cunts in November?

The Premier League stadium's have a bad atmosphere in general. As much as I don't like them, Palace are the only team with excellent home support in England. There are lots of reasons, main one being the ticket prices. I wish one day the PL would have the same atmosphere as Bundesliga. They are fantastic.

Courtois must feel like shit. I feel so sorry him. The man has been brilliant but he can't get clean sheets because of our defensive mistakes.

I think soon we'll have to include Costa as a candidate as well. He IS a great leader, and he runs his socks off. He kind of reminds of Drogba, of course not in playing styles but in terms of mentality. If he could speak English I would say why not.

Sure, but did Drogba have an understanding of those he was playing with? Since Drogba left, all of our midfielders and attackers have changed. Since he wasn't at full fitness and Remy had just scored against Swansea, that would have been the perfect game for Loic.

As much as I hate them, I must admit qpr is actually in a pretty decent form now. It all started from that game against the Scousers, and then they beat Villa comfortably. I wouldn't take this game lightly, however, Costa against Rio will be something to remember.

I've just noticed something. His style of goals so far is almost exactly like his goals in the 2012 Champions League, except he is going backwards. His first against Maribor was just like the penalty against Munich, the header against United was exactly like the header against Bayern, and today's goal was a left-footed shot down the middle after a pass from his left, like that goal in the first leg against Barca.

Long live the king.

We've all missed his celebrations, haven't we?

I wish Drogba could keep playing forever.

Costa trained without problem. And apparently this is a picture of him in training lol.

I don't want any Ramires or 4-3-3 bullshit. They don't deserve the same respect as City and we should go and 'kill' them, as Jose would say. Play with our normal 4-2-3-1 and Drogba up top if Costa and Remy are injured. Drogba is good enough for that pile of shit at United's defense. However, I'm pretty sure Costa will start. We need to keep the same level of consistency and not take them lightly.

This legend will wear the captain armband of this club for the 500th time against Crystal Palace. I don't think there will be a greater captain than Terry in the future. Who can get the captain armband at such a young age and keep it until this age, still being part of the best defence line in the premier league? And about the picture in the spoiler, all I can say: Captain, Leader, Legend.

Two reasons that sometimes make me hate living in North America, I can't watch the UCL games, and there is nobody on talkchelsea when I'm here lol. Anyways, Has Thiago magically played on consistent basis for Spain or Barca that somehow makes him a better player than Cesc? No. Again, you can talk about Thiago's potential all you want but the fact that Fabregas is miles ahead of Thiago leaves no question behind. Thiago as a 23 year old is not comparable to Cesc at 23, let alone being comparable to what Cesc is now. I don't need any Youtube videos to prove that. The amount of disagreement you've been getting speaks for itself.

Fuck me you're over-rating the fuck out of Thiago. The argument started when you said he is better than Cesc's prime. Utterly ridiculus. You keep posting videos of Thiago, mate complations can make Victor Moses and Peter Crouch look like Ronaldo and Alan Shearer. If you said Thiago will be better than Cesc one day I would be ok with that but now, Cesc is a class above Thiago in terms of assists and controlling the game. There is no question about it.

I love my desktop theme (Windows 7). @Sh0n3x you should try using Rainmeter, its pretty sick.

I would not want to drop points here, since the game after will be against United in Old Trafford. Dropping points in that game is not unlikely so beating Palace is a must.
