I just spent 30 seconds in the current player section looking for the mata thread before it clicked. it will take a while to get used to him being an ex blue

Really?! Seriously?!!

Would appreciate it if you guys want to post up pictures of Mata in THAT color, do it so inside a spoiler tag..

It's going to be sad seeing Mata lose....

A really good description of Mata's departure I read was

"I still can't believe it. It's like a worst dream I am living. A gun shot right where it matters..:'( "

[diskoviolente 425]

I am devastated. I can't believe it. Rationally, it all makes sense, but then again it makes no fucking sense. Him and David Luiz are the players I got detached to the most over these last years, and now one of my favorite players ever is leaving for the club I hate most. It makes no sense. I actually feel "heartbroken" over this.

And I would appreciate if you didnt actually quoted the picture to complain about it...

And I would have really appreciated it if you didn't quote what I said to remind me of what I quoted and complained earlier...

C-c-c-c-c-c-combo breaker!

Spurs fuked us over Modric, Utd fuked us over Rooney and here we are selling one of the best players we ever had to utd. still can't see how the board allow this to happen. so when City come in for Hazard next year, there is a chance we sell him? that's worrying.

Not really, because you complained about something you did yourself!

If Hazard became a reserve player like Mata, then sure.. why not. We're not a selling club, but it's only rational to sell your reserve player for £37m.

@TweetChelseaFC: Mourinho - "We are not happy Mata has left the club, we are just glad Mata is happy with his move"

@TweetChelseaFC: Mourinho - "We wish Mata good, not very good because it will affect us"

[Special Juan 27,182]

A normal club would have a go at Mata, what a class act our manager and club is.

[Ollie 4,400]

Mata wasn't playing... we've let a squad player go for nearly £40m. £55m for Mata and de Bruyne is fine by me. Selling Mata this time last year woulda been a disaster. Selling him now was a perfect time to sell him at the best price. He's not even been playing well tbh.

Will the admins remove mata from the banner? Horrible to see him there now he's gone!!

[sk21 11]

anyone else feel like matal is a total pretender the way he makes it sound like he was forced out of the team? first time ever dude had to fight for his place and he left us as soon as he could.

he really didnt want to fight for his place so he really didnt like the club i guess

[Blue Armour 4,195]

All the best, Juan.

On a lighter note, does that mean we'll move from Ma-za-car to Ma-roo-sie?
