Juan Mata

“The boss (Mourinho) believes in me, he wants me to become a complete football player.It’s more important to him that I want to become a complete player, I need to show him the desire.He compares me to Xavi of Barcelona, who he rates very highly in the world of football. He says I have all the qualities”

- Juan Mata

saw it both on twitter and fb although no source in either

Fake quote. Typed it into Google and not one reliable source came out. Same on Twitter as well.

And apparently, Valencia made late Juan Mata bid..

It'd be a crime if Juan isn't offered a new contract now. God knows he's earned it.

The likes of Mikel and Luiz have been given new contracts recently so I think our best player should as well.

Yeah, feels like that!

They must have done that interview on purpose!

Fair enough as the club wants to end the rumours, too, and wants the player to be able to totally focus on his performances.

Obviously this recent interview with Juan won't get recycled in the multiple publications the way so called "Mourinho's favorite" Oscar's interviews were. This only throws egg on the faces of those who suggested he tried a last ditch attempt to sign with PSG and Arsenal. People say this midfield is overloaded but it's perfect. No more worrying about someone running on near empty towards the end of the season when there's many fresh legs to compete on all fronts. If this isn't an ideal situation for one of them, they can go. I had my doubts during the window about Juan staying but I'm glad it never materialized.

He needs to help team defensively, no more , hazard and oscar,schurrle in this aspect are more than Mata .

Mata: ”The boss (Mourinho) believes in me, he wants me to become a complete football player”

is so true, Mourinho will to help to Mata in that aspect , Mata has to play much better that the last year . He will need to be "the player " of Chelsea .

Exactly. Also it will make it clear that he is commited to the club as well as the response for many rubbish rumours out there. And Luiz too. I think both of them are really deserved it.

I remember one of our new signings of last season (anyone remembers who?) saying that Juan knows every corner of London so to say. If you tell him you want to eat a pizza or something, he knows exactly where you can eat the best pizza in London and all this stuff. It seems that he's really settled by now.

Juan Mata has moved to end speculation over his Chelsea future by insisting he is happy at Stamford Bridge.

The 25-year-old was linked with the likes of Tottenham, Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain during the transfer window but remained with the Blues despite the interest.

Mata claims he never considered leaving Chelsea throughout the summer and is looking forward to winning more trophies with the Blues now the window is closed.

"I think it's normal in every transfer window that there are lots of rumours but I'm happy here," he toldChelsea TV.

"It's been a very, very good two seasons for me here, maybe the best of my career, and what I want this season is the same.

"I'm looking forward to achieving as many trophies as we did the last two seasons and hopefully this is going to be a good season for us again.

"Has it been hard for me to focus on my football with all the speculation? For me it's not, if you have things clear in your mind and have belief in yourself. My only aim is to play here, grow as a player and do as good a season as the last two which were amazing for me.

"These two seasons have flown by, but to me this is good because when you are enjoying things and you are happy, time goes quicker."

Mata has made just one start this season under Jose Mourinho but after recovering from a thigh problem the midfielder feels he is back to full fitness and ready to reclaim his starting berth.

"We are doing a very good week of training and I feel really good. I'm looking forward to playing. Yes I am back to 100 per cent," added Mata.

"It was a difficult pre-season for me because I had an injury, I never had this before. It took me a little bit more time to get fit but now I'm feeling really good.

"I had four weeks off [ahead of pre-season training] and to be honest that's too much time for me because in the last five or six years I didn't have this amount of rest.

"For me the best thing is to play as much as I can because I love to play, I love playing at the weekend and in the middle of the week. If you are having a lot of games during the season, maybe the training is the games."

There is only Juan Mata. May he never have to play for Spain again, just focus on club level
