Juan Mata

[The Skipper 20,609]

I wouldn't give AVB the credit for getting Mata, I think it was more to do with Emelano etc. who chose him as an alternative after we were prized out of a Pastore move.

We're so lucky. The best player in the league for me and a pleasure to watch. You can bully him physically, but later on he'll find a way to humiliate you. His importance for the team cannot be highlighted enough and after every game I'm convinced of that.

Does anyone else think Mata looks kinda weird without his usual beard?

Maybe its the source of his powers. If so god damn it.

Mata is so much more effective than Silva. Struggle to see why he is not played more for Spain. Mata scores, assists. Really underrated. He is up there with the best IMO. His beard that he often has often makes me think he is a old man but he is only 24. Many years to go at this club

Torres played a part in getting Mata here.

Would it be easier if we pretend we spent £74m on Juan?

Well, then my thanks go out to Fernando, because bringing Mata here is the best thing he has ever done at Chelsea!

I just buy a chelsea shirt with Mata's name last week...

[Milan 17,956]

Found this -

Juan Mata finished this year with 27 Assists, 2nd highest in Europe's Top 5 Leagues behind Mesut Özil.

Really? I knew he had a lot but this number?

Oh I remember Pastore. Thank fuck we missed out on him! We got something 10 times better. The best player in the league.

just imagine how much dangerous he is going to be in coming years with his fk's

Every player needs a rest. Even a human monster like Mata is in his core just a human. The squad we played last night should've been good enough to beat QPR.
