Juan Mata

[Rapkun 668]

How do you think the ManU fan would receive it if he said Juan isn't happy to join them.. Seriously people..

[Roquila 1,335]

Screw Mourinho, lets chant against him at the Bridge. Mata will be happy at United and thats all what a Chelsea supporter wants.


Plastics Logic.

Meltdown time again!!!!

stop this petty love in for mata. he isn't what we think he is. when people like didier, jt and cole got dropped they worked hard to get back.

they are the winners that jose wants, the people who really get chelsea. if he decides to leave after half a season, where he hasn't even been very good then that just shows what type of character he is. jose wanted him to stay and he bailed on us

hope he has a terrible 16 games at united, thanks for the corner in munich.

Give Mata a break people. He's a footballer and he wants to play football. It doesn't mean he doesn't appreciate us and it doesn't mean he's ungrateful and that we should start burning shirts with his name on. :confused:

He's served us well but we simply have no need for him so of course he'll be happy to move somewhere we can can be fully utilised and also earn twice as much as we were paying him (that's another issue...eventually he would've wanted to receive the wage he felt he deserved and he'll get that at United).

It's a good move all round. We've got rid of a player we don't need for a healthy profit, we've already replaced him with Willian, we've bought in a young player who seems to suit the team a lot more (proper squad depth vs the fake squad depth Mata offered us - depth only counts if you're prepared to actually use it) whilst denying Liverpool a player they wanted and Mata gets to play football regularly again. The only downside is that it might reinvigorate United but there's a one word answer to that thought.....Moyes.

Mata is gone. Chelsea goes on without him

[gary gordon 1,777]

Relax people. Juan isn't Chelsea FC. In Jose we trust. You can also pretty much guarentee that Man u won't be beating us for a while too. Mata won't make the Spain team regardless, and Manure will be lucky to make Europa League next season.

I remember this goal very well, this game was crucial for us to win in order to finish in the top 4. I enjoyed his celebration that time.

But as some has said, we are Chelsea FC and we will not stop functioning just because 1 great player left.

This. Sad to see him leave, especially to manu, but that's just how it is now. It's not the end of the world.

It's a shame he'll end up never winning the Premier League now. I thought this could be his year.

[Fernando 6,585]

Thank you mata for your time.

Enjoy your time at United.

I know you will do great!

[Thendo 1,088]

It's a shame he'll end up never winning the Premier League now. I thought this could be his year.

Is he eligible to get a medal if we win it this year, since he've played some matches for us? Not saying that he should get one just FYI.

[Special Juan 28,100]

So from Jose, he's happy, the clubs happy and we got huge amounts for him.

That's good enough for me, and as Jose said it's more than football now, it's a business.

Thanks Juan, good luck but not too much. Always remembered for just that one corner alone.

CAREFREEEEEE!!!

Well I think it's the fact that more information is coming out...that's the way it is for me personally.

Well the zealot part wasn't aimed at you, but what you say about information is my point though:

In psychology and cognitive science, confirmation bias (or confirmatory bias) is a tendency to search for or interpret information in a way that confirms one's preconceptions.

People will never really know what happened even though they'd like to think otherwise from the snippets of information we'll receive. We hardly expect Mourinho to say he was pushed out the door for the money, the same way Mata isn't going to say he would've preferred to stay at Chelsea, at least for the time being. But some people will take these little things ('Mata was happy to go') and interpret it to suit their ideals (again, not really you) and I expect it to be brought up in later arguments.

My point is that there's not really any point in focusing too much on this information because it's just a translation of events for the media and everyone has their allegiances to stand behind. It's all conjecture right now and we probably won't get a real version of events for quite sometime.
