Juan Mata

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,761]

Believe it or not I've actually backed Jose on most things up until now (including the mini-meltdown on here when we were really struggling earlier this season or the outrage we loaned Lukaku to Everton). I just can't contemplate selling our best player despite him not getting a fair shot all season long and to our rivals nevertheless.

The boring football and results first mentality as well as the near-exclusion and development of youth are all staples of his management I've learned to accept during his first tenure here.

He's had a fair shot though. Its a results business and Oscar was carrying us early in the season.

Just sell Courtois and David Luiz and circle will be complete...

What are you on about?

[Alan Partridge 1,124]

Is Dzeko still unhappy at City? I'd take him

[11Drogba 2,000]

We know Jose, he'll probably use that money for defensive midfielders or fullbacks.

[Hamon 103]

fixed

It's sad isn't it?

Thank God I have got brains and eyes and can make my own judgement. some people may never know what that feels like

I like every single thing you wrote in this thread.

He said Aguero, Hulk and Falcao to us were done deals and that Ronaldo was going back to United.

And lots of other things...he is NOT reliable..

Never sell to a rival

MU sold one of the best player in football history and replaced him with Valencia, still won 2 titles in the next 4 seasons. They annually lose their best players like Van Gol, Stam, Tevez, Beckham and still do well. WHY? BECAUSE THEY GOT ONE OF THE BEST MANAGER IN HISTORY, SO DO WE. That is why we as a club will survive, this sale means nothing. Arsenal sold RVP last season, now topping the table. Liverpool sold Torres, bought an even better player in Suarez.

KTBFFH, WE ARE CHELSEA, WE WILL GET THROUGH THIS AND WE WILL STILL MOVE FORWARD NON STOP.

[Bacika 188]

Ooooo my God....and that means.......

We can't bet on it :-) as I said we are not singing guarin, we are not selling Mata...

[BlueLyon 9,359]

If only we got Rooney, that would make some sense...but obviously we cant negotiate and do whatever they say...we are chelsea, the worst when comes to transfers...

People will laugh at us as hell if Mata becomes a hit in Manu. At least Mou will look like a fool for this ridiculous decision.

[zolayes 14,489]

We can use the £40m to invest in a world class striker like Andy Johnson

or a world class diver like Young

Found a nice picture of the Chelsea board...

I doubt they would win shit if they sold Ronaldo to us.

It not the problem in selling Mata, problem is in selling him to MANU.

No, he won't. If we win the league and reach the semis, at least, in the UCL, Mata's departure becomes irrelevant.

Although we disagree on this matter, I got to hand it to you that you can take everything with good humour, good on you.

[calculatingInfinity 1,443]

Fuck this

[BlueLyon 9,359]

What are you on about?

Well if we sell Mata to ManU, we only have to sell Luiz and Courtois to look like even bigger fools.
