Popular Post! Rekin 835 Posted January 23, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted January 23, 2014 Dear god, this thread really shows the mental state (and age I assume) of a lot of people here. "Dear Mr Champions League, League and various cups-winner,We, the true fans of Chelsea, think that it would be a mistake to sell Mata.You see, he has more key passes than Oscar this season, something we are sure you and your army of people working with you have failed to notice. Since this stat is everything, selling him would be wrong, and we do not care that we are currently on a seven-game unbeaten run in which Mata has played a relatively small part in.After all, you have to win titles for this club on our terms, nothing else is acceptable.The fact that you can reinvest £40m and make our squad one of the best in the world does not matter either, for Mata has more Key passes than Oscar. He was also a suberb player the last two seasons in which we were not even close to the title (which we are now), but that too is irrelevant because INDIVIDUAL STATS.Kind regards,Pro-Mata"Seriously, wanting to sell him does not mean we hate his guts or think he sucks, it just means that we trust a club-legend who happens to be one of the most succesfull managers in the world. Getting £40m by selling a player who adds very little to the team that we use today (except being an option when resting another player) is hardly being ignorant or something similar. We all want Chelsea to move forward, and surely rebuilding the squad under the stability of the same manager is the way to go?Oscar is inferior when it comes to creativity, but just saying that he "tackles well" is just as silly as calling Mata bad. He is not playing very well now, but so did Hazard under periods of time last season, they are both young and keep developing so it is to be expected.The only drawback of this is selling to Utd, but if they are willing to spend £40m no, they will do exactly the same during the summer. Is it not better to know their star player very well? Know your enemy etc.This way, we have the money to buy say Zouma and Shaw and have money left, or Costa and like 90% of Zouma. Utd have the means to greatly increase their squad either way, for all we know the difference in quality could be marginal if they buy another AM.

Popular Post! The only place to be 11,313 Posted January 23, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted January 23, 2014 Worse? Since when was the Robben sale bad? We got 35m IIRC for a glass player. He has never showed any sort of consistency; not here, not at Bayern and certainly not at Madrid. People forget just how injury-prone he was and how bad his form got.

The same player that only just helped Bayern win the fucking treble last season and was their best player in the CL.Do you watch games outside the League? Robben is one of the best players in the World and only Ronaldo and Ribery are better wingers. t1mb3r, Azpinator and couris 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Atsu. He is not significantly better than any of those. I'd be very annoyed with this signing.

He is not significantly better than any if those. I'd be very annoyed with this signing.For the sake of conspiracies and clutching at straws, would say that's just a plot to screw up both United and Liverpool in the end. We'll keep Mata. United won't get him and Liverpool will miss out on Salah. Roquila, The Skipper, kellzfresh and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Term-X 7,891 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Salah really? Is he that much better than the 20312932 "wonderkids" we have on loan that Mourinho said he wants to develop only a couple of weeks ago or KDB who never got a chance? This guy is the ultimate bullshitter lol.The state of some of our fans.If we win fuck all this season we're going to end up looking like complete mugs yet again.There is no 'our', the club have given full backing to the new Sir Alex Ferguson of the Premier League, Mourinho IS Chelsea now. You're not a Chelsea fan, you value the pawns more than the chess master. Roquila 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skipper 20,609 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Like scoring in the CL final? Or both games against Barca?Tbf, before that Robben was known as a big game bottler, and this is coming from someone who really admires Robben and has avidly followed his whole career. I was delighted with him last year because he finally stepped up in those huge games. He deserved it, I didn't want him to go down as a great player that just bottles it in big games.I don't know if you remember him spurning the best chances of the game in the WC Final...

Popular Post! Fernando 6,585 Posted January 23, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted January 23, 2014 Why do people bother with gilvorak and lionsden? They have been like that since the beginning. No matter if we win the pl they will still be against what the club and mourinho is doing. semiller1313, pHaRaOn, HD3D and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On his day, yes, Robben is one of the best wingers in the world, but unfortunately, his "days" are far in between. bababoom and haranr 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
