Eidur the Spider 4,515 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Jose Mourinho would prefer not to comment on the foul on Matic. #CFCJose Mourinho says there were four key moments over the course of the game that were decisive. #CFCJose: 'Minute 69 has a big relation with minute 30. This is the story of the game.'Jose: 'I am happy that I am not stupid. I understood everything a couple of months ago.' #CFCJose can't remember a run of 'non-decisions' like this that is currently happening to Chelsea. #CFC NiclasCFC, supporter and darrus 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrique 9,133 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 About the game today, the team was robbed.But se cant forget it was a game against a team in the botton of the table. You cant accept that kind of pressure because the team was down to 10 men.We cant also forget that 1-0 is never a safe result. The team barely created chances and seemed happy with the 1-0, and never really went for the 2nd goal.Never a football from a UCL winner or even a PL winner. laura90, Peace. and Roquila 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dee25 1,044 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 When is he going to learn that defending isn't the best form of attack. He needs to learn and coach better time and game management to this team. sitting back deep to defend isn't going to cut it as it's a strategy that has backfired on us throughout the season. Man city for example wouldn't have retreated into their shell like a pussy if they were in a similar position. In fact they thoroughly outplayed us at the etihad with 10 men.Then got thoroughly outplayed themselves by 10 men Utd at the Etihad. Fyi, the same City team lost a 2 goal lead against Burnley. It's not so black and white, is it? kellzfresh, Blue-in-me-Veins and Barbara 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

didierforever 7,349 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 So jose should bring on willian when defending a 1-0 lead or should he substitute cech for courtois when chasing a game to be "unpredictable". The amount of nonsensical dribble that is written on this forum after a poor day is just @#$@@$I mean we were a goal up. We were denied 2 fucking stone wall penalties. Barnes should have atleast been red carded too for once his tackle on zouma and then iva. We were a man down, defending a 1-0 lead with our only recongnised DM in the natch day squad red carded. What , in the name of lucifer, was jose supposed to do?Keep cesc on the pitch as a DM? Play oscar as a DM? what difference would bringing remy on have made when we hardly had the ball. Our only hope was to bisect the mid and go long. Dont people remember the newcastle game. This blame game on jose is getting beyond ridiculous now. That too from the fans of the club that he manages, the club which is atleast 5 points top of the table, final of league cup and with in an awesome position in CL. Un fucking believable. darrus and kellzfresh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmax 9,219 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Should they be held as an example? They are an example when bashing Mourinho but when their failings are pointed out, it's time to shift the goalposts.

lionsden 4,689 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Your right about City.They were 2 up vs Burnley went for more and drew, there's no right and wrong when defending a lead. You are missing the point. No one is talking about going gungho especially when ahead by two goals. I used Man city as reference because they manage the game much better than us ,and bar one or two games this season, they rarely lose or draw from a wining position because of it. How many points have we dropped this season from a winning position? quite a lot is the answer. which would suggest that our way isn't working. if you keep losing leads then you need to rethink your strategy.

Popular Post! Styles 9,790 Posted February 21, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted February 21, 2015 Also his tactics have become ridiculously predictable and repititive.play strictly defensive in big gamesBring on drogba when we are chasing the game despite already having a similar player in costa on the pitch, a strategy that usually disrupts the balance of the team and has proven ineffective.Bring on a defender for an attacker in the closing stages when a goal ahead.Sit back and defend deep as a way to see out a game which usually invutes pressure and makes the players nervous and panick.And so on and so forthYou shut your mouth.How DARE you criticise Mourinho.He is the best ever.We are 5 points clear.You are such a spoilt brat.You don't know how to support a manager or the players.When is the last time you were HAPPY after a Chelsea game, eh? :worship: :worship: Peace., lionsden, laura90 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellzfresh 7,229 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I think the press make a lot of money when Mourinho makes controversial comments, so they keep costing us matches. He should just shrug it off with little comments as possible. Give the press and fa no headlines, bore them to death Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the little game we play in The Mourinho Thread on Talkchelsea.Preach. Dropped points from a winning position against Everton. Dropped points from a winning position against Burnley. Surrendered a 2 goal lead against Sunderland and needed a last min goal from a 36 yr. Lost by 2 goals against Arsenal. Would have lost at home to Hull were if not for a last min free kick....I gladly welcome measured arguments about Mourinho's tactics, but if some on here are actually positioning City as a reference point then quite frankly they are far and beyond devoid of rational thought.

The Chels 2,502 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 They were 2 up vs Burnley went for more and drew, there's no right and wrong when defending a lead.That's a fair point but Courtois, Luis and Costa certainly knew how to do it last year. Jose ought to ask them for advice already. I've lost count of the number of times we've thrown away a 1-0 this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Styles 9,790 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Trying hard to be funny but ironically true statements xD.Meh, it's more of a pisstake at those who seem to be offended at any perceived slight/criticism. Rational supporters seemingly can't make any criticism of the manager, player performances, tactics etc without being shouted down or being called names.
