and to add to your point, with that sort of thinking by chelsea and jose, we would have never had ashley "the best english leftback in history" cole in our team... someone who's embraced chelsea, its fans and its culture and has become a club legend forever, not to mention being the best LB in the world for an entire decade (still top 5 imo)

maybe if you don't respond well to threats then you should stop calling people idiots for no reason and act civilly

What's wrong with you dude? calling someone an idiot for defending a player who has great history at chelsea, loves the club and always gives his all... Seriously? He had a bad season but so have plenty of other players in the past, so what? He obviously deserves to stay and try to improve... Thankfully our board and jose aren't as shortsighted as you

this guy usually is in the know about chelsea transfers and calls them before they happen, will be interesting to see if he follows up this tweet with any more...

good so now you have an answer as to why other people are posting tweets, articles etc

then why are you in this thread?

thanks for the updates XpetrcechX, much appreciated!

lolz what are you on about? it's not the easy way, it's just the truth... our strikers are pathetic at the moment. In truth it's a miracle we even got so close to the title and the CL final! which other manager could have achieved what jose did with ba, torres and old man eto'o? with the worst strikerforce out of any top team in europe we almost had the best season in the team's history.... this nonsensical mourinho bashing is annoying (not to mention off-topic)

Chelsea to offer Cesc Fabregas chance to return to London from Barcelonafrom the telegraph a couple of minutes ago

yeah read that too... i think koke won't move and we'll be in for cesc

the only thing he is worth is what the market is ready to pay for him, if its 40M then its 40, if its 50M then its 50... having said that, absolutely gutted, luiz and mata were my favorite non-spine players and now it seems they're both gone

i don't even get how he can be behind this... they're saying he convinced toure's agent to make up the birthday snub claims to manufacture a move to chelsea? lolz seems very farfetched

apparently according to the guardianman utd aren't in for kroos anymore edit: telegraph also reporting the same now it went from "done deal" to "not interested" in less than 24 hrs lol... maybe ManU got rejected by him and are trying to save face

eurosport saying jose is behind all this.... https://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/video/euro-papers-mourinho-behind-toure-103609199.html

Garth crooks should be an embarrassment to all football fans.. His main (and only) "contribution" to football is race baiting

couldn't give a flying fvck to be honest, as long as it makes city weaker

"[Mourinho's comments are] good and it's true. I would prefer him to speak like this rather than say he's the 'best and doesn't need to work'. I know I have to do better, in training and on the pitch. If I can score more I will score more and next season I hope I will be better. I want to be the best, I hope one day I can win the Ballon d'Or, maybe not now but if I work every day and take pleasure from my game then why not?" -Hazard from CFC site all this bs about hazard leaving , everything seems perfectly fine according to this

sorry, wasn't clear... didn't necessarily mean the 3 players i mentioned aren't chelsea quality but rather that for one reason or another, they ended up not working out ( kdb = attitude, moses = not enough quality, marin = not enough consistency)... at least imo

we'll see next season but from what i've seen, he's not chelsea quality and he'll end up like moses, de bruyne and marin.. hope i'm wrong

i think he can be groomed into a lampard-like #8 role, has all the attributes for it...

we'll see, i think there may be more ins-and-outs this summer than people think

for everton's sake? lol who cares IF we want him now, and he wants to come now, what's the problem? we need some english players and he can maybe be a long-term lamps replacement (not exactly like-for-like but there is only one super frankie lampard after-all). I really like him and would love to see him at SB but i think we might need to sell someone to find a place for him...

the way i see it, we'll probably get rid of either torres and ba or torres and eto'o, but not all three.... this means we'll be left with ba/eto'o and two more spots to fill. So if the rumors are to be believed (and i think they should be in this case), costa is coming in as #1 striker... This means we will have a first choice striker in costa and a third choice striker in ba/eto'o, leaving a spot open for a second-choice striker... lukaku will probably spend pre-season again with chelsea and jose will be able to see up-close where his development is at... so if towards the end of the summer in august jose tells him he wants him as 2nd striker and lukaku says he wants to be a guaranteed first choice starter, then he can seriously f*ck off and we should sell him... I was already annoyed at how he decided not to fight for his place at chelsea last summer and pussied out, asking to be let go to another team all because he was more interested in his chances to go to WC2014 than to do what is right for the club that pays his wages.... if he does this again, as far as i'm concerned he can f*ck off and we should get the max cash for him and send him abroad somewhere

maybe i missed somethibg but why is everyone saying lavezzi is a cunt, costa i fully understand lol but what has lavezzi done?

don't know what some here are posting but to my recollection, luiz has NEVER complained about not playing, has NEVER given anything less than 100% and has NEVER said a bad word about the club, a player, a manager.... basically anyone. He's also never failed to show up in a big game, be it champions leg final (whilst being injured, mind you) or any other big game, especially this season when paired with matic in midfield... very very sad to see him go (if this is true)
