Closed Bayern Munich 2-2 Chelsea

[Melanicus 5,208]

I'm so fucking proud of this team, that's all I have to say.

[╫rue Blue 47]

that is why we should try out 4-1-4-1

Cech

Ivanovic - Luiz - Terry - Cole

Ramires

Willian - Oscar - Mata - Hazard

Eto'o

that good option

but to be honest, i doubt mourinho will change his prime formation and team tactic

because this is football philosophy he believe to defeat big and strong team who have good attacking possesion football

[bushman 2,043]

Personally, I believe Mata was not played because of his knocks & not game ready. Perhaps, Jose does not feel he should be playing with all 3 amigos on ? I believe, we should wait & see. Soon, Jose will play him.

maybe but what i know, mourinho confirmed mata already fit to play

what make him not being mourinho selection

i think purely because mata not already good and yet to learn how #10 player in mourinho system work

i just hope, even though not become as good combative midfielder as oscar can do

but mata can really improve alot in his backtrack, helping the midfield and awareness in transition play

if he want to choose by mourinho for big game

[Ljpaddock 187]

Schurrle was dynamite

Well, I am not sure whether Jose confirmed Mata is ready to play. He played him for 20 minutes & not much thereafter.

If I were to compare Oscar to Mata. Incomparable in my view. Mata is a better finisher, I feel. Even last night, Oscar could have put the game away, but he didn´t.

It's always shitty not to win a game, but there was so many positives in there that I can't help but also just be kind of happy and excited for what the future holds.

[Peppen 934]

Shame about the defeat, but it might be a good thing. We know now that we, despite being a young, upcoming team can compete with the very best. If we had held onto the lead, we would of won against Bayern. Fucking Bayern Munich. The supposedly best team in the world. That's astounding. Considering they are all players in their absolute PRIME and we are yet to reach the peak of our talent/potential curve, I am proud of the performance put in by everyone.

Schurlle was class. Oscar was superb defensively. Ramires, stupid red card. Cech, our hero once again. Lukaku, chin up lad, an occasion like this will come by soon enough.

Let Bayern have some banter, they were a very good opponent. Afterall, we did beat them in their own backyard, didn't we?

GO CHELSEA, ONWARDS AND UPWARDS! :blue scalf:

[bouletje 82]

it's a shame we didn't manage to keep playing our own game until the end, we got that second goal in and dropped back, while imo we were still able to keep giving them a hard time.

hazard was out of this world, unstoppable for their tiring defense towards the end of the game.

shame for me tho that de bruyne wasn't in the selection, any known reason for that?

[Billy. 2,742]

Great fight from the lads, got unlucky in the end, and what a brave lad Lukaku is stepping up for the 5th pen, just hope he keeps his chin up and comes back stronger.

Fucking love this club CAREFREE And KTBFFH

Still feels a bit horrible this morning. Bayern have never won the Super Cup and obviously none of these Chelsea players have so it is a revenge for them. They won their UCL last season so the UCL doesn't really hurt that much for them now like Moscow doesn't hurt as much for us. Their players have now won everything.

I'm still disappointed with the way we played tbh. If we had kept the ball better we coulda scored a couple more but we just let them have it and despite us defending and parking the bus, they cut through us time and time again and missed so many chances. With the players we have at our disposal, we should've done more in possession.

Hazard and Schurrle were good but didn't have the ball enough. Still, as i've said before. Bayern are settled and we're still pretty new and inexperienced. This game was a great game for us to have and the acquisitions of Willian, Alsu and Eto'o will make us much better.

I don't particularly like the way we're playing away against the big teams with the ball but we'll humiliate lots of the smaller teams that's for certain. I can see some more 7's and 8's.

Totally agree with you.We have the players to play like other top teams and the parking the bus technique should not always be used.I want the top Europe clubs to fear us now.

[Ollie 4,400]

I just wish we'd take the game to the top teams and stop being pussies. Anyone that thinks we were unlucky yesterday and hard done by are so wrong, even Jose.

[polo 18]

The end for KDB in Chelsea.

[hjperdeath 2,226]

What a legend -

[Melanicus 5,208]

Big words from Drog.

Big words from Drog.

Haha beat you.

[johnnythefirst 1,076]

He appears to be very well loved among fellow players. Good to see.
