Bosingwa played there, guess Cesar can

Paulo was versatile

Remy has been the striker for Newcastle this season - another goal - but they have always struggled with the follow-up season. Papiss is no longer the man with the representation he had during his wonder season.

I am sure if anything else not fails Jose wouldn't be afraid to go with a 3-5-2 or something to battle against it. Jose's opinion always will have back-ups, one advantage to his mastery

I don't see that though. I think that he wanted to come back to Chelsea after all the shtick he tuck from Madrid fans last year, as he said, he wanted to be somewhere he loved and where he is loved. He's probably supporting the fact he will a large support behind at Man Utd, and that there will be patience if them to get themselves up and running - call me deluded, but i don't think Jose would want to be the successor of one of his best friend's in football and be in the same kind of atmosphere he was treated with last year.

Know he has probably stated numerous of times: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/25773875 But i love this man! Surely the only ever man to be the stop-guard to the resolving door - after-all, it was him who we tried to cover the shadow of.

SkySports was just waiting for me to post that lol Like a second later it was confirmed

Nothing been confirmed on either BBC Sport or SkySports of any transfer nor Loan

Lol all i remember from his first tenure here was coming into his player thread on TC and see this picture Being compared to this Guess times have changed much, ha?

Nice! Steal the signing Man Ure fans wanted - now, only to get Zouma

The fact we actually have a manager in the dugout instead of a waiter?

I dunno why, but i feel like Oscar will score. With a bottom feeling of Torres or Eto'o to score also, but i think that is more down to my bottom meaning my arse - and that to be full of shit

CaughtOffSide being noticed!

If true, would be nice to see another option in defence with JT coming to the end of his career, though i guess, i would like to see someone like Omerou or Kalas (though he can still be a choice at RB) as competitors. With someone young and JT still going strong at the moment, we could rotate the other CB position till then to get him used to the defensive style/reputation that will be on his shoulders.

More importantly, have the terminator board been terminating the managers as much as the current one!

I think this story kind of shows of what twisted scum these 'fans' are! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-25575833

clearly the club has some interest in the lad, surely the successor of Petr. But it is done to the balls of Jose then anything imo. Will he be able to drop one of his 'friends'?

How is Jimmy doing in management? Another successful Chelsea offspring?

With Mourinho, the transition will be supported around a good foundation - and with money incoming from players that are deemed unneeded (ie. Marin, Moses, KdB, etc.) maybe then we can promote from within and then buy for the actual eras within the squad that needs more depth and quality. We have more depth now then we did last season, and players are finding the consistency they will need in order to become 'elite'. With Jose, we have a great transition potential that can keep pace short-term as well as building for the future

stream link anyone? athde isn't working

A gem in a poor team, but outside of the poor team isn't really a gem - but a golden turd

Always had the compact and attacking mentality that fused with the 'always a winner' philosophy, which was shown in the first half exceptionally, but he just seemed to be a completely different image come the end of the game. Whatever happened inside that locker-room changed the philosophy of the players, and instead of trying to break down the passing space, we decided to break into their space in order to counter - and then completely folded that for holding onto a draw! I get the 'a point on the road is better than nothing at all' but with the results not going our way lately, and the fact that it was going to plan, why change a potential winning formula for a drastic average one? All i heard from the commentators is that Jose has changed, and i guess we will have to expect that - or wait and make do, till he can create his perfected team once more.

A game that started with hope and determination in the first half that was shattered by a sudden change in the second half, and albeit reluctance to go for the win. January can't come any quicker, hopefully we can sign a striker who CAN score and will help bring a change to the style.

So disappointing to see this

In the first half we were, but the pressing has become erratic and desperate - taking off Hazard who was the biggest threat kind of was a sign to me that we are not going for the win. Hell as i type this, David Luiz is coming on for our STRIKER.
