Fuck.

Is that Wilkins next to him, to his lower right?

Looks like the bloke who used to present the Crystal Maze.

Last night I started to watch Belgium vs Colombia. Since I did not understand much of Spanish, I turned it off, then.

As we know, Jose was there. His checkbook open, closely watching Falcao.

Not really sure whether KDB played well or not. Nevertheless, the kid must go in January to play football, anywhere.

Some of you guys are giving up on him too soon. Given the recent results, I'm sure he'll get his chance rather sooner than later. Two squad selections in a row. First midfielder to come off the bench against Schalke & solid performance there. Immediately set up a goal scoring opportunity, would've scored himself if not for bad passing by Ba. Yes yes I can feel his momentum arriving.

KDB never once said he wants to leave Chelsea. If you want to quote the papers, quote them properly.

Agreed that people are giving up too soon on him. He absolutely has the required talent to succeed at the top teams in Europe. He's a different player then Mata or Oscar, but in form he'll always create chances for his team.

However, De Bruyne has always been a player who needs games to be at his top level. Even at Genk in his early career, after being injured he needed a few games to get back to his best level. His first games after an injury have always been bad. He's lacking in experience and is playing unnatural this season because he's trying to prove himself. At Chelsea, he won't get the run of games he needs to be at his best. And frankly, if he plays like yesterday with the national team, he won't get in the team at Chelsea. The difference with the De Bruyne of last year or Chelseas preseason is enormous.

There's only one solution for De Bruyne : he needs to start playing games. It's up to Chelsea if they loan him or sell him in january, but it's obvious something will happen, becaus I can't imagine Mourinho was impressed after seeing him play yesterday.

Did the Belgian fans actually boo Mourinho because of KDB? Was it only in jest or?

I was there at the game, and yeh they booed him every time they showed his face on the side screen.

Bit much isn't it? I mean Lukaku, Courtois and Hazard are all getting regular playing time, it's only Kevin who's having a hard time at the moment. And the players who play in his position aren't exactly bad either...

Booing Jose because KdB isn't playing That will teach em lads....

haha, but you need to understand, KDB was the one who pulled us through the qualifiers almost single-footedly ... he was supposed to make us world champions next year and now he's playing at about 10% of his potential due to lack of game time. There goes our world cup ;-)

that's why they were booing Mou

I sincerely hope Sweden eliminates Portugal, only way to get KDB back in the Chelsea line-up. Mourinho won't have to fear for KDB taking away the WC from Portugal then next summer haha

The only way KDB is gonna get back in the Chelsea lineup is by actually playing well, something he hasn't done since this summer.

True that. I don't even recognize him any more on that pitch. Shadow of his former self lately.

Yep, and he's trying too hard which makes him look silly. At times it looks as if he's trying to mimic Hazard.. problem is he's not nearly as fast, his accelaration is average at best. He needs to play to his strengths, positioning and passing.

Most of those ppl dont follow Chelsea , the only thing they know is that Mourinho is benching their "starplayer"

Thing is that KDB doesnt take his chances,most say he need some matches to get to his best form but at a top club like Chelsea you need to be ready whenever you get your chance ,something KDB has problems with it seems

This!

I was going to say that it seems Mourinho thought he was capable of this (being able to perform whenever called upon); so he obviously rated him highly at the start of the season. If he didn't, he would've just been sent on loan with the likes of Moses, Marin etc.

Hopefully he can improve his mentality in this regard because all he needs is one really good performance to push himself back into Mourinho's plans...but at the moment I do think he'll end up on loan.
