Melanicus 5,208 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Hazard-Oscar-Willian is orgasm upfront. Oscar MOTM, although he deserves a slap for that dive. Mata situation is worrying. Mou was spot on with the subs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Perfect start to the year Oscar changed the game. Hazard was brilliant. Cech Equals Bonetti's record of 208 CS. Perfect blue day! :blue scalf: :blue scalf: :blue scalf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weckerz 3,781 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Hazard-Willian-Oscar, you could make a case for any of them as motm, Hazard should have had 2 assists (oscar dive) and was great throughout, but the way those subs and especially Oscar changed the game edges it.

Special Juan 28,141 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Win of the season away for me, those subs changed the game and proved Oscar and Willian are the main men in attack for us, as well as Hazard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only place to be 11,313 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 A great win although another disappointing first-half. Mourinho's subs won us the game and we look a completely different team with Willian and, in particular, Oscar in the side. There's a pace and directness that they add to the game. Torres was good. He created chances for himself and was in exactly the right spot for his goal, but he needs to be more clinical (how many times has that been said in the last 3 years?). Ramires and Mikel were very solid too especially after the 50th minute, but it really does look like Ashley Cole is a mistake waiting to happen.The headlines will probably be all about Mata though and that's understandable, but he's simply not as important to this side as he was last year and we're a much better team this season without him. But this was a great win against a good team in tough conditions and it's been a fantastic Christmas period for us. Now we get a chance to make a few changes in the transfer market too....bring on 2014!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jusek 2,031 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 José did great job with subs. Willian, Oscar and Hazard were dominating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enes 153 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Willians goal was really nice. But imho Oscar was MOTM. Happy that Torres scored, you really see how he is working on the pitch for the Team, with passes and making places. So the Game was good, the result is nice. I am pleased with the performance of our players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Flash 1,144 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Poor first half so many chances. Then second half we were brilliant. As much as I like Mata, Jose was right with his substitutions, how many managers switch players and BOTH score great goals. Good team performance, but Oscar MOTM just Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane 2,275 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Nearly as impressive of a win as the one against Liverpool. Get in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustafa 885 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Great stuff from the boys ! As pro-Mata as I am, I have to say, Jose's subs changed the game. Lets all take in that last season we got just 1 point off Southampton. This season, we comfortably got 6. :blue scalf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laylabelle 9,535 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Poor first half..Oscars dive stupid and pointless.Great result though!Got there in the end against a tough side.Still right in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMS 382 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 and still my timeline is filled of Mata fanboys saying shit about Mourinho, although Oscar changed the match for us. How they call themselves Chelsea fans is beyond me.I'm tired of this shit, I'm honestly am. We play much better with Oscar but all they can say is complain about Mourinho taking Mata off in a match he could nothing for us. I want to throw my laptop at the wall. If only I could block people without unfollowing them...The most annoying are the ones that keeps saying Mata should be played in the middle. Oscar played on the left and mostly on the outside and was still very effective and dominant.. The chemistry is just not there for Mata with Shurrle in the line up.

Sheva. 5,373 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Tough game, beautiful 3 points.Well done Mourinho for making the subs early, that was the key here imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toli 977 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 subs won us the game. feeling poor for mata (playing out of position while we have hazard as a winger on the pitch...) and also kinda for schürrle...even though he is more at fault than mata.great result and very important 3 points. sucks that arsenal, city and pool all won their matches.

HD3D 1,038 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Slowly Mourinho is finding his best 11. Willian, Hazard and Oscar should all have a place in it from now on. Perhaps Ramires too. Oscar - This game was a football lesson for him and the manager needs to make sure he doesn't forget it. Dribbled the goalkeeper and instead of making the tap in, went for a ridiculous penalty and got a yellow card. It could have cost us the game too. After that, he actually went for the goal and scored. Had he been given the penalty the first time around, he would not have learned such a valuable lesson. And regarding Mata, it's sad but I think he won't find a place in this new Chelsea team... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
