Juan Mata

[didierforever 7,349]

ok so what would you prefer me to say, oh Mata is a legend, i love him, i cant believe he is gone, he is so classy! lets knock-down Osgood's statue and build a Juan Mata statue outside the Bridge for this great guy!

NO! the reason why i don't say those things is because i dont believe that! I feel Mata is a coward who didn't want to stay and fight! he wasn't forced to leave! he wanted to go! and leave for United of all teams! he will always be a coward in my eyes!

there are levels of cluelessness and you probably have surpassed all of them.

i am not going to bother to make u try to think logically. but like i said in my initial post GROW UP!!!

Saw a tiny bit of Mata's first interview with THAT club, he stuttered for about 5 seconds or so when he was asked what went through his head when he first heard the interest from THAT club...

any link of his interview with THAT club.

I'm really not the enemy. Simply an interested football fan. I would answer your questions, but I don't think it's on topic.

The funniest thing is, I actually want Chelsea to win the title as I see our hopes all but gone.

Ok, let's go on topic. How do you feel about Mata switching from a Lamborghini to riding a donkey?

Fuck you seriously.

If you watched the rest of it he even took the time to thank Chelsea...

[bababoom 4,478]

I actually like Hazard. I'm not bitter in the slightest, if that's what you're hinting at. When I say like, I mean as a footballer. He's clearly a money grabber though, so I don't mind that we missed out on him.

Think it's so clear that he didn't want to leave us at all. Just a huge shame that things have turned out the way it is.

[Melanicus 5,208]

He is a coward im afraid! People like Luiz and Azpi are fighters who want to be part of this team! Mata is a coward who couldn't wait to jump ship because things were not going his way!

He is not coward.

First of all, a lot of people knew from the very start, that Mata won't be Mourinho's preffered player, because of his low defending workrate. He started very few games, although I'm sure he did his best on every training session. Even when he started he was playing outside of his preffered position, which is CAM. Even under AVB, when he was playing on wing, he wasn't doing well. He is 100% CAM. He was played on wing by Mou where he couldn't show his true potential.

There were games where he actually tracked back, tackled and helped in defense, but was still taken off in the same match. Mata was never given a real chance. Also, I believe even by playing most games out of position he still managed to create more chances than Oscar.

Mata is an introvert, deep person and he surely sees a lot of importance in his relationships with people. Mou is complete opposite - ruthless, goal-oriented extrovert, who doesn't care how he gets what he wants. Mou just destroyed his morale. Mata started believing that not matter how hard he trains, his contribution won't be appreciated by Mou.

It's better for everyone that he left and I'm sure that if Mou talked to him and gave him a real chance, this move wouldn't happen.

Lol haha, how he couldn't answer what he really thinks, by saying , I didn't want to leave Chelsea in the first place.

[The Mak 4,459]

Could we please ignore the Manc who has nothing better to do on the day his club makes a record signing other than to troll Chelsea fans? If not, ban him or something so people aren't tempted. The day is bad enough without having to see his shit in here.

[Chels 238]

This thread has everything,

From nutters going way over the top, it's the same as a member of your family dying lol fucking hell.

It's depressing and hilarious at the Same time... Oh and throw in a few cunt's slagging off Mata.

Mata along with lamps you are one of the most cultured and intelligent footballers we have ever had at our club or even the prem a real gent which is very rare.

It's been a pleasure watching you play and thanks for everything you have helped us achieve we will never forget.

Sorry it didn't work out.

I wish you luck in the future when Madrid or Barca purchase you in a year or two.

Right back to business, lets win this prem.

Mata is an introvert, deep person and he surely sees a lot of importance in his relationships with people. Mou is complete opposite - ruthless, goal-oriented extrovert, who doesn't care how he gets what he wants.

Many players say the opposite - that he is a very caring person (Lampard, after his mother died and José sent him texts every day is just one example). Even Balotelli (today): When you are in Mourinho’s team it is a family…

No need to make him look like a cold, heartless person, surely. Sometimes things don’t work out - but José is the accountable one, the one with the ultimate responsibility for the club and that means he must make difficult decisions.

Chelsea fans grieve for Juan Mata, their Spanish Zola

Another (emotional) piece on Mata, this one in the Telegraph. :cry:
