André Schürrle

[Shakez 755]

Some bad touches here and there but it really didn't matter. He was vital, and again proved his killer instinct. He will get a good run into the team now that Hazard is injured and im looking forward to it!

[TorontoChelsea 4,064]

Absolute hero, my MOTM for stepping up and not being intimidated about replacing Hazard in the team when we needed him the most.

I absolutely love his movement and his cold, cold finishing. What a baller.

I've also been very impressed with his pressing. He really agitates opposing defenders, blocks their clearances, and forces them to make bad passes. He also tracks back quite well. He's a very valuable player for this side even when you look past his scoring ability.

Schurrle—"You saw the supporters after the match, it’s the best feeling in the world, I had tears in my eyes & had so many emotions."

[Special Juan 27,429]

He just loves playing for this football club, I love that in a player. He even got involved dancing to Madness......Unlike someone!!!

Andre I think I love you more with each passing day.

I really like players who enjoy and love playing for their clubs. The admiration always makes them put that extra effort and well for supporters,thats just amazing to watch.

Also the off the field interviews make you really proud to have such kind of footballers in the team.

Speaking as a True Blue - which is btw and I've been saying as much since his first interview. He seemed sincere when he said he was a fan of this club since he was a kid and that it was like a dream come true playing for us.

Now he's also one of us, following Mourinho's footsteps and saying things as they are and defending us downright.

Haters are gonna hate til they're green in jealousy... oh, wait, they already are

I chose my faves quotes, but he delves into what Mou asked him and Salah to do.

I just love this boy!!!!

Andre Schurrle says the Chelsea haters are jealous as midfielder hits back after Jose Mourinho is criticised for Anfield tactics

“If people look at us and say ‘Chelsea can’t play’ even when we win, it’s just because they’re jealous,” Schürrle said. “Winning is what matters. It’s the most important thing. You can play perfect football, lots of one-touch stuff, and you lose.

"But that’s not what you want, you want to win. There’s no point in playing well and losing. If our plan is to win playing this way, and we win, then it is perfect.”

and to illustrate that, I've found this on tumblr

I grabbed that Mark Schwarzer quote that I used in the Jose thread from this article. Excellent that the players believe in what Jose is setting out & they are trying to implement this. Schurrle & Ba are good examples of this. Both don't get the headlines much, but have made some very important plays for us this season.

Wait till he joins United in two years time.

Wait till he joins United in two years time.

Second player in a week you imply will pull a 'Mata' on us.

Two things though: 1) how many of our players did it in the last decade?

2)That joke got old pretty fast with you doing it every time a player says they love this club or that they want to stay long.

Also maybe some of our current players aren't afraid of fighting for their spots in the main team and won't leave at the first bump in the road. Just saying...

Firstly, like you mentioned there, it's only meant to be a joke. Nothing more and not sure why it's even being taken seriously anyway. And secondly, since when I've gone around saying "Wait till he joins United" or imply player X will pull a Mata on us whenever a player says he loves the club and want to remain here for years? That was like only the second time I said that.

If anything, what I meant to say or imply in the past is that, forgive me if I'm being paranoid or skeptical, I don't necessarily trust or believe 100% whenever a player said things about loving the club/want to stay here etc out of the blue even if it's great to hear it. It feels almost like a PR thing at times but that's just me. Other than that, nothing more.

Also maybe some of our current players aren't afraid of fighting for their spots in the main team and won't leave at the first bump in the road. Just saying...

Well, can't be bothered to debate about that again.
