Oscar did well, always felt he would do better away from a #10 role. He's a jack of all trades and master of none so put him in a position where that works best. Still has a ways to go but its a good start for him.

Play the man and let him learn. Its not like Ivanovic is outplaying him...

Easy to blame a youngster and claim he hasn't performed. But Baba truly needs the full backing of the manager which means he should be starting LB regularly allowing him to grow in confidence and reach his potential. I've seen enough in the handful of games he has played for us to say he has the potential to be a fantastic LB except here at Chelsea we'd rather play a right footed RB as LB paired with an old donkey in Ivanovic.
I am empathic to Baba speaking to the media like he has. Seems like he's not a stupid kid just to sit and warm the bench while watching donkeys like Ivanovic and Oscar starting every game irrespective of performance and ability. Maybe with the stupid hierarchy we have at Chelsea he will become another Bertrand or De Bruyne and shipped out as shit goods but turn out to be a gem in another team where they appreciate investing in youth with great potential on the pitch and not just in their transfer & profit policies.
 
 
 

You always sugarcoat Ivanovic's performances but him you call awful. Come on, Tomo.

Oscar would make a great sub but I can't see him as a starter anymore. He is what he is.
Get a certified #10 and either let Oscar's sale finance the move or push him to the bench.

I know Mou is Mou and people think that's the end all be all.
What many people are forgetting is that world class managers don't start off as world class managers. They develop into that role. They have to start somewhere. What I'm trying to get at is that sometimes new blood is the way to go. You never know who the next high level coach is until they actually get a real opportunity to apply their ideologies. I can understand the uneasiness of the future and if things go wrong (or in this case, worse) then that's a hole you probably never climb out of.
Thinking Mourinho is the ONLY way we can be this elite level squad or maintain it will actually make it come true. I will and can admit that our rise will be stunted for the time being. I can admit that I was on the fence at first, then slowly but surely was pro "Mou out". I can also admit that as much as I wanted him to go he's still the managerial legend of this club and it shouldn't be forgotten. Just remember that sometimes loyalty will drag you into the depths of misery if the figure you are loyal too is starting to cause you harm as well and eventually you have to disconnect to preserve yourself.
I'll also admit that A. players must take some of the blame for this because its clear they didn't care to compete and B. Mou clearly wasn't the only issue amongst the staff as now we have people questioning the board's direction as well. Mourinho is the loudest problem but not the only one, I'll definitely give him that benefit.
The future will show us what the organization is truly about.

It had to happen. It was time, can't let his legacy be dominant over the best interest of the team in the long term. I appreciate what he has done on both his stops here but enough is enough. Let the youth movement begin, this is just the start.

Baba did decently against Stoke. Yeah Shaqiri had fun against him, it'll happen you aren't going to lock up everyone especially when you are still learning and adjusting. Ivanovic would've been twisted and turned also but at least Baba provided something offensively and actually played with effort. He's 21 and with more games should come into understanding how to handle his role.
I got a lot of hope for this guy.

I think the writing is on the wall. Personally I'm in the middle myself...there are legit reasons why he should go and there are legit reasons why he should be given a chance to correct this. But I think he's gone.

Probably because Mourinho is a bit of an asshole. He's a great manager, I'm happy he's here and in no way shape or form should he get the boot for this. But he isn't the most endearing person and just because your a Chelsea fan doesn't mean you have to justify and defend everything he does right or wrong.
Mou was wrong, whether it's Eva or Evan, if she was a dude. The fact that some of you put the outcome of the game over the health of a player can be seen as weird too don't you think? If Hazard was truly in a bad way and our team doctor waited, then the physio gets blame for not being on the ball.
Who gives a damn about 8 men when one of your guys could potentially be in a bad way?

Eva being woman has nothing to do with this. That was a doctor doing their job to ensure the health of player....who cares about the game after that if he's actually in need of help. She did what she's paid to do. I would say the same thing if she was a man, if we were down 2-0, if we were up 2-0 or whatever it is.
