That would be a mistake Henrique.... He's earnt his place in the team and he provides speed with a great ability to switch the play at will. He also works hard and we need that for this away game especially with players like sessegnon buzzing around.

He's a very well balanced player and he's one that'll probably establish himself. He doesn't give the ball away he's fast and driven and he's got good technique. He offers a mixture of oscar's work rate and drive and shurrle's pace. He's also got a very good pass, he's one of the most 2 footed players you'll see too.

He's really moulding into the player we need. I think he has that hunger to make it so I'm not worried about him. I'm concerened about KDB, his form is dropping and he really needs games. I really think we should loan him to Everton in January or even a side like Newcastle were there is pressure from the crowd. He's down the pecking order at Chelsea and at the moment he's turning into stale milk.

Lol ramires rampaging run and pass into mata ! Mata pass to den a and just missed !

.

He'll probably get more goals then all our strikers this season being supplied by Leon osman as opposed to juan mata.

He deserves a ban for that, I can't believe he actually did it !

Did you have cow dung smeared on your screen at home ?

The problem is why was he allowed to score all those goals in pre season and look our best option upfront then be loaned out. I agree the loan at Everton is a fantastic situation for his own development but we really need him back home. We've got these rusty strikers who can't even find the onion bag if they were presented with open goals its hurting us. Even if Lukaku doesn't score he provides a huge distraction with his power and hold up play to open opportunities for others.

Mourinho doesn't like mata purely because he doesn't dribble and take the ball on himself ever. I'm shocked people in this thread have missed that out. I honestly think that is more the problem then defensive work. A cam has to have a certain level of ''go it alone'' in certain situations and mata hasnt got that. Mata is the superior player because his passing and vision alone is far greater then that of the brazilian ! Mourinho believes you can get away with playing a lazy player like deco and Wesley in slower more technical leagues but not the premier league.

You have to be a real sad to care about the MOTM award lol me and my friend are in absolute stitches here. What is happening to people these days ? Sometimes I just wish the internet didn't exist and everyone had to live in reality.

Can't watch the game, how is willian playing and how is eto'o ?

I remember Jose talking about putting mata on the wing then on Saturday he puts him in the cam role. I really don't think mourinho likes a playmaker in the premiership. He's ok with a deco in Portugal or Wesley in Italy because those are slower leagues.

Oh and MIkel had an absolute stormer today he was incredible ! He give the team so much more steel and he has a good touch in tight areas !

I was at the game and we dominated it from start to finish intact there was times when they were clearly out of their depth. We just lacks that finish and we probably needed a target man today to hold the ball !

I've got it back in a way ! I think it was just a phase and it went away. The thing is I don't think i'll ever be as fanatic as I was when I was 10-16 years old !

I got my tickets whooooooooooooooooo this is hopefully gonna be another classic ! With Chelsea winning with aplomb !

Josh has really disappointed me ! He has more talent in his little toe then someone like Cleverly but Cleverly put the work in because he had a manager that knew what he was doing.

WHAT A BUMP LOL !

HOLLAND HAVE QUALIFIED AND WE WILL BE IN BRAZIL WITH OUR ORANGE BALLOOOOOOOOOOONSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What planet do you live on that Ballack was inferior to any midfield player of the last 10 years bar maybe Zidane ? A prime Micheal Ballack was the ultimate midfield engine the type that took a poor German side to the 2002 world cup final !

I just wish he still has the fire in his belly ! You know that Sammy Eto'o fire... the type that grabs the game by the scruff of its neck and leads by pure example. Pressuring the centre back making runs into the space and being a genuine danger for 90 mins !

Wait there has Portugal ever won anything internationally in its history ? Diddly squat ?

No not best friends he'd just play with us on a during the week. It really makes me feel like shit watching him I can't believe it.

Oscar isn't fast enough or potent enough to play in that three. You need at least 2 players that can shift in that three then you can afford to have a player like Mata who is 100% technical. Oscar should take Lampards role next to Rami ! Willian should play on the right switching with Hazard !
