francozola 2,040 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Things i like about him is that he will always prefer to have an assist then score a goal himself.That shows he isn't thinking about himself only rather than the better for the team.His goal against Arsenal was a class act and it is a shame it didn't end up as being the turning point for our win.Agreed. Sometimes I'm yelling at him to shoot when he gets into a good position but he keeps the ball and makes a pass and it's always the right decision. His footballing brain is unbelievable.

Term-X 7,891 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Slightly concerned about his long term future, he moved from Valencia to be 'successful'. If he wanted to be apart of a team that merely aimed for a CL spot, he would have remained at the Mestalla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Term-X 7,891 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Real Madrid, PSG, Malaga.. who knows.He left Valencia to lift silverware and be successful. If he wants a bigger paycheck one of the above clubs will certainly offer more than he would receive here. Roman better dig deep in January/summer, or Mata’s tenure will replicate that of Robben.

manpe 10,861 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Real Madrid, PSG, Malaga.. who knows.You saying PSG and Malaga have better chance of silverware? PSG have only the chance to win domestic titles, Malaga will never overtake Barca and Real. Those 2 teams aren't even close to being CL contenders either, while we are. He seems like an intelligent guy and thus has to know that he was brought in to strengthen the squad, with new players coming along in the future, we will be able compete on every front.

Except Malaga/PSG will be able to pay him far more in wages. The current state of affairs must be concerning for him, apart from financial gain, there was no point in leaving Valencia.

manpe 10,861 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Maybe he doesn't relish the prospect of winning the French league? And joining Malaga would be a no hope of winning the Spanish league or CL, he would have been better off staying at Valencia than joining Malaga. Saying barca and real are equal to manu and city is nonsense. We have greater possibility of winning the league (and CL) than Malaga and Valencia ever will. It's undeniable that joining Chelsea was more ambitious than staying at Valencia, joining PSG or Malaga. Barca, Real and City didn't seem to want/need him... only Arsenal (and 'pool?), and he snubbed them.Sure if we decline to Arsenal level (once a great team with no hope), then big players wouldn't want to join us and would leave us. But we're far from becoming an Arsenal/Liverpool type of no hopers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
francozola 2,040 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I honestly don't see him leaving unless we finish outside the CL places 2 or 3 years on the trot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whinni09 37 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 In my opinion, Mata would suit more as a COM in a 4-2-3-1 formation than a winger in a 4-3-3 formation. I do think he easier could become an worldstar player in the 4-2-3-1 formation too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manpe 10,861 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I absolutely LOVE Mata's personality.. humble, polite, down-to-earth. Even if he starts sucking suddenly, I still couldn't bash him because he's so simpatico James and laura90 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisey11zola25 142 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I'm taking huge risks in my own morals aswell as others by saying this but......He gets more and more like Gianfranco with each touch of the Ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW_Blue 71 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 He's just one of those guys who makes me feel proud to be a Chelsea fan. Incredibly skillful on the pitch, never playacts, seems to get along with everyone in the team and behaves like a total gentlemen off it as well. Seems to have the team's interest in mind all the time. Best signing in YEARS for me. I'm sure he'll lead us to many great things, with the right support of course.
