Hd123 5 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 He will surprass Silva. What a player, just fabulous. I don't think he's even playing in his proper position. Give him more time to settle and fully develop, will be a top five in the world player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TacticalBlues 2,817 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 “I am happy every time Fernando [Torres] plays. He is a person who helped me a lot when I arrived and he is still helping me. He deserves to triumph," he told Marca.“[Whether Torres goes to Euros] is not my decision, but from a selfish point of view I would take all the forwards possible. Obviously we can't, but there is a high level and we can choose [from some great players].”The 23-year-old has admitted he is surprised by how quick he has adapted to the Premier League, scoring five goals in 24 appearances for the club.“Even I have been surprised at how quickly I have adapted, but that is largely because I have been playing. When you get playing time it's easier. “The saddest thing [at Chelsea] has been the defeats. What I experienced against Valencia was a double sensation, because I would have liked another team to have gone out.“It seems as if teams like Chelsea are expected to pass the first round comfortably, but it's not that easy. Now we have Napoli, a difficult team but one I like a lot. Let's see what happens.“[City and United] are two teams that are going really well in the Premier, but despite our ups and downs, we are still in Europe. We are even in the fight for the league, and I don't know what will happen. For now we have won our first game in 2012.“Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard have taken the penalties. I'm sure I will take one between now and the end of the season.”Mata singled out the pace of the game, refereeing and fixture congestion as the main differences he has noticed since making the switch from La Liga.“Sometimes games get difficult and the play is less attractive, but in Spain that happened as well. I am pleased with my playing rhythm. You run more and the games are more end-to-end [than in Spain],” he explained.“In the Premier League there is more respect for the referees. Their way of officiating is different. There are fouls that aren't given , but for me they are fouls.“[Playing at Christmas] is a different feeling and it's strange, but playing football is never bad news for me. Also, my family came over and they got to see me playing.“It was awful [playing on New Year's Eve], but because we lost that day.“You notice a special atmosphere, especially on Boxing Day. There's a festive atmosphere and lots of children.“It's a very old tradition; I don't know if it would work in Spain. In Spain the tradition is to rest for a few days.”The availability of David Villa for Spain at next summer's European championships is in doubt after the Barcelona man picked up a serious injury and Mata also stated that he hopes the forward will recover to feature in Poland and Ukraine.“I honestly think that because of how he [David Villa] is, he will be ready for the Euros. I have spoken to him and from the first week [after his operation] he has been almost running and is highly optimistic.”Such a great guy.

Milan 17,956 Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 He scored for us in his first Premiership game, in his first FA Cup game and in the first Champions League appearance for us. Not a bad start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peace. 4,352 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 We should stop playing him week in and week out. It will lead us nowhere. He does look worn out, and as a result his end products (notably his finishing) and his inspiration suffer from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liquidator 5,176 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I am getting worried about him. It seems like since arriving and settling at Chelsea, being surrounded by a team devoid of any creativity whatsoever has meant that his creativity has started to drain out as well. He looked a bit like Malouda mark II today which could be because we have become over reliant on him and so he needs a rest or because he is being forced to do the work of 3 players to create anything and has started to copy his team mates more and more in just playing dull football. It is vital that we keep him the player that he is because it is a monumental waste of a talent if he becomes another one of our useless wingers.
