Eden and Cristiano Ronaldo Well, so help me, cause I haven't figured out yet. It feels like my hot seat II At the moment is past midnight here and 31 degrees, my brain has been burned

Most people I know really like him, but I do know some that think the same as some fans here and think he's a farce. He's well loved as far as I can tell.

I think his hair suits him... and he's hot and cute (cute as in good looking, not the baby-cute Oscar is). I'd date his doppelganger

not really. He looks like a teddy bear, meaning he's cute - but not cute as in good looking, just cute as baby are cute. He's okay... not my type at all. I'd rather Willian physically tbh... or Marta as they're the same person and I can't decide who's the real one.

I didn't say I didn't want him... as far as I remember - but I thought we should have done better. I was also very wrong. I said people overrated him lol In my defense I didn't watch many Atletico games so I was speaking based on a small sample, still he's so much better that I would have thought

You're confusing me... I've defended him way too many times, although I admitted being disappointed many others.

I swear I tried to take your comment on Oscar's thread seriously - when you said he could have missed the goal. No, that's a lie, I didn't try because there's no way to make sense of it. Even if he wanted he wouldn't have missed that goal. I think Schurrle needed the goal and I think you people are paranoid about players not liking him. We have a great dressing room environment... José insists on giving him many chances to recover his confidence. I think he has the manager and the group's support - I don't see us having even the slightest dressing room problem. Oscar was disappointed, but he had two other chances to have his hat trick. And to be honest that shot that he took in the second half that grazed the post deserved to be a goal.

I'm demanding blind worship for this man Everyone, cult time

@Pizy just complained about the media not giving him enough recognition. I don't care much about biased media that is basically United and Liverpool ex players or fans. What really bothers me is the lack of appreciation and not enough credit he gets in the forum. At least the fans attending matches are class and seem completely in love with him - as every Chelsea fan should (even if we criticize one aspect or other, I'm not talking about blind worship, but he deserves much more credit than he gets for his all around game and the slightest drought had people saying all kind of shit about him. Horrible)

doesn't matter, not good enough for the amazing Chelsea fans on this forum. Also, he linked up and pre-assisted (as people love to give Eden credit for this) our third goal. He had two more shots that were nearly goals, he linked up with Cesc and Hazard pretty well, he pressed amazingly, but to the hell with all this. They want Hazards in every damned position of the pitch, which makes me sad because it means they don't actually realize how blessed we are for having Hazard because players like him are hard to find. But you know... Oscar sucks. I guess he had been involved directly in 8 goals in the last 9 games he played, but that's not bloody enough for TC members. I don't give a buck about what they think though edit: also according to Squawka, shitty Oscar had a 87% pass completion (misplacing an incredible amount of five passes the whole second half) and created one key pass in the second half, but some people insist on saying he was sloppy in the second half. I should stop coming to this thread. I spent a long time avoiding Eden's thread, I think it's now time to avoid this one.

Still he had a few (2-3) horrible moments and every single Swansea relevant attack came from his and Iva's side. When we were 2-0 up he made one of the most stupid mistakes... if they make it 2x1 at home, maybe the outcome would be different. There, a few words about Cahill as you demanded.

Go back to the end of December and read the posts. Some went as far as saying he wasn't good enough... as usual most people's memory is as long as the latest match. And yes, it makes me embarrassed. I said it then and I repeat again. The last thing to find in some threads is constructive criticism - unless that's how we call moaning and spoiled attitude. The problem with so many fans these days is exactly that. They're fans not supporters...

Absolutely deadly... Oscar my MOTM, and please, we need him to play this well more often. He's been the difference there. He has the skills, the potential, but he needs to do it way more frequently. anyway, amazing match by him, not only in the attack - although he was very good there - but also in the pressing. He lacked that aspect last month. It's been slowing getting back. The passing improved too (81%). The finishes for both goals were suberb. Willian was unlucky, should have had a brace as well. But he played much better today than in other occasions. Diego Costa is immense. I love it when he bitches with his team mates when they don't help him press the goalie and the defense. I love him. He's amazing. He's been progressing incredibly. I feel like he's a better player this season than last season - despite adapting to a challenging league (that suits him in all honesty). Three shots, two on target, two goals, an assist. Fabregas simply ran the show in the first half. He keeps delivering, where are the people saying he doesn't play on second halves of season? He's running the show, he's assisting, he's creating. I don't see him slowing down at all. Luís was great too. I think he's been improving and toughening up in the 1x1s. By the end of the season he'll probably be fully adapted. We'll still have him a long time here and I see him only getting better. We look much better attacking when he's playing. Also, when he's on, Iva bombs forward less often - which is always a plus in terms of exposition, especially if Cahill is the one playing behind him.

Oscar and Eden's linkup improved so much this season. It's almost there with the good days of Mata and Eden

we can't get penalties. This rule has been voted in the FA

tbh Schurrle needed that goal much more than Oscar did... I don't blame him for 'stealing' the hat-trick at all. He needs to build some confidence. We will need him at the end of the season

Last time Schurrle entered a game like this, it ended 7x1 and he scored twice

when is Mourinho going to make changes? He's been slow to make them a few times this season...

so that's not how he looks with straight hair? my bad

LOL FOREVER

clearly trying to get Costa sent off. He's probably going to have the short end of the stick though... provoking Costa in a situation like this works for us, not them because Costa will learn some English words til the end of this match if he needs to rile him up

People keep slamming him for his 'weak' hold up and link up, and he keeps shutting them up. That pass for Oscar's goal wasn't easy in any sense and it was just right whereOscar was... He's a hell of a player and he deserves much more recognition and praise and I still feel secondhand embarrassment by all of you who jumped on him during a mini slump in his first season in English football. Please, go back and delete/edit your posts and save some face
