bloody 209 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Mata was so impressive! Haha Malouda's going to panic now! that's good, keep malouda on his toes. flo's also on the wrong side of 30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoopz 183 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Cant help but feel that Mata could become our very on Iniesta. There are so many similarities to their game. I wouldnt be surprised if AVB plays him more centrally rather than on the wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoFear 23 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Like we saw in the Norwich game, he is given a free role. Pretty much like Silva in Man City. They roam around everywhere - left, right, center, deep - he was everywhere. The pass that released Nico for the 2nd goal from the counter attack was a classic. He almost found Ramires with another brilliant long punt on another counter attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OReillyD36 311 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Still can't believe he is our player, I know he has played and we've seen him in the blue jersey but still hasn't sunk in TopDrog 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amblève. 4,995 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Hopefully Mata is our long-term solution for the left wing position, would like to see him and Kakuta fighting for the starter-job in 1-2 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bababoom 4,478 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Still can't believe he is our player, I know he has played and we've seen him in the blue jersey but still hasn't sunk in I know, I still cant believe AVB is our manager.

Share Posted September 2, 2011 Still can't believe he is our player, I know he has played and we've seen him in the blue jersey but still hasn't sunk in I barely believe Torres is our player... probably because he's a striker who doesnt score for us :mellow: BlueLion., OReillyD36, francozola and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnykeogh 3 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Brilliant little player. Will bring the best out of Torres (which at the moment, any improvement is good) and the best out of Lampard and Meireles. These 3 linking up and Sturridge either side, looks bright for us.Mata is fantastic and hopefully he becomes a Chelsea Legend!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Lukaku_ 13 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Still cant believe we've signed him tbh. This lad is only 23. Hes only turned 23 so he hasnt even reached close to his potential. His performance against Norwich was both enjoyable and exciting. OReillyD36 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomCFC 357 Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Mata can write his own headlines - he studied journalism at university while on the books of Real Madrid. He will also have the support of his sister Paula to call on, as she lives in Brighton. The two of them had their faces all over billboards and buses in the Spanish city of Oviedo when they were children as part of an advert for a local bank.The winger, 23, scored 33 goals in 129 league appearances for Valencia. He made 12 assists in La Liga last season - more than Frank Lampard, Florent Malouda and Salomon Kalou's combined nine in the Premier League.He appeared once, as a substitute, during Spain's triumphant 2010 World Cup campaign and then helped the Under-21 team win the European title this summer.Lawro's verdict: "He can play left, right or in the middle and can see everything, giving Chelsea lots of options. He could be the key to releasing Fernando Torres."http://news.bbc.co.u...ll/14110039.stm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kieran. 6,317 Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 If Mata comes on for Malouda as a sub, this will be accurate: :subs: BlueLion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
