Filipe Luís

As Ajax fan I remember when our hero Jari Litmanen was playing in Liverpool in his final years. When he didn't get playing time, even the Liverpool fans said that "if we are not going to play him, let at least some other club's fans enjoy seeing the lad play." Same can be said about Filipe. Absolutely top player and Mourinho might want to think of ways he could accommodate all our three star fullbacks on the field same time. Luis has some serious skill in the offensive end and could be a major asset. Nobody in our team par Fabregas crosses the ball better than him.

Should have brought him on midway through the game. Would have made Hazard's job - who was playing fantastically - much easier with his overlapping runs and also give us an alternative in terms of attacking with his crosses.

He'll win a couple of titles and earn good money. I hope he goes back to Atleti next year though. They are a perfect match.

If he was a couple of years older that would be a fair point, but he was one of(if not) the best in his position last year and is in his prime. Big big mistake to be riding the pines at this point.

We have players with a technique of a 10 year old like Remy, Ramires and Cuadrado coming off the bench for us, while the guy with probably the best technique in our squad after Eden and Cesc warming the bench. We can easily slot him in midfield due to his technique, but no. Jose prefers to play Zouma instead.

To be fair Ramires did fantastic today. Looked a lot safer than the show Matic was putting on.

It wasn't a great career move for him but there are some positives in it. It really is a shame to see someone with his technique, intelligence and intensity rot on the bench while the untouchable Ivanovic continues to neglect his defensive duties, vacate the entire right wing and regularly gift the ball to the opposition in dangerous positions. I'll be very surprised if Luis is here next season.

The most bizarre signing of the summer. He was at the top of the world before he joined Chelsea.

You could tell how excited he was to move here with his first interview, his tweets about the score (even when he didn't play) and the story about how he told Courtois he'd 'see him in London' when Atleti had just beaten Barca to the league. Mourinho undoubtedly sold him false promises.

I still have a faint hope of some turnaround though. I'm not a fan of Azpi on the left. But at the same time, Mou seems so adamant on sticking with him there...
