Happy Birthday to the Special One! 51? Twenty years to continue as Chelsea boss :eyebrows:

luckily i only have to do Essays for my course so i do not know 'studying' that well

I think he will be here for generations, ie. decades, and with enamor the role of the 10# shirt - so far he is the Player of the Season and well deserved

I think one more defensive player will come in, in the sense of Zouma, and then hopefully with the sale of Marin, Moses, Torres, we can gain a player of high calibre as such of Falcoa as well as bringing in players from the youth such as Troare and Piazon to add to rotation.

Arrogance of a player over a manager is stupid. If Jose wanted a player of Mario quality, then fine, But the fact he has failed to reach the potential he has with the above video, it doesn't, imo a Jose player. A forward for Jose is someone that works for that works for the WHOLE attacking line (ie. hold up play) as well as scores goals, ATM Torres and Etto'o add that without that element. I think we will seek that kind of player during the summer transfer period, and will add to the attacking depth (hopefully with Torres and Etto'o/Ba leaving for Lukaku and Costa/Falcoa to add to the striker situation).

I see him in a DLP kind of role, with potential for strolling forward. Would also agree with the idea that Romeu might not be grand for the team, but has an equal to array of talent which can be nurtured and turned to offer different styling in a position which could be tactically decisive in games/matches.

Intriguing to see what kind of role he will play next season - Frank will be gone (or even a coach? ), Essien's gone, and there still could be the outing of Mikel also. With him, Matic and Romeu (??) battling it out for the placement alongside Rambo, would be nice to see which one plays best alongside him

In comparison, how many goals has Heskey scored against us? Remember at least one during a 2-2 draw with Villa

Essien used to play in that kind of role. Started off as a Cb, but worked as a DMC, but played RB a few times.

Still could, but with the role as the utility man he would be more effective.

Maybe Jose wants him to be a defensive 'utility' man - defining his game in all positions so he can add more depth to his squad and his overall game?

Game plan should be the same as the Arsenal game - but to be more clinical in the final third! There is no reason for us to loose against a side when they loose their identities/backbone. Not expecting a game of flourish attacking brilliance, but the result in our hand with the 3 points.

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!
