Barbara 15,149 Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11668/9920342/jose-mourinho-says-chelsea-do-not-need-to-make-big-signings?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=TwitterI especially like the part where he says"So we have to improve what we have already. We are trying to give them some new qualities, try to be a little bit more unpredictable and go through the season with high motivation." I love unpredictable teams and I think we should prepare ourselves for something along the lines of our first half of last season. I believe that's where we're moving. None of our key players played during off season, so I expected a rested, confident and in-form team. The only first team player who's missing part of pre-season is Willian. Give him a proper rest, start playing him a couple of weeks into the season and we basically have the first team rested and prepared. I'm confident we'll win titles again even if it feels a bit underwhelming to know we didn't sign any first team player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlas Lion 1,223 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Judging by his quotes, we are in for a frustrating season. Puts more reliance on work rate rather than technical ability which is frightening. stroey, Peace., TheIceMan and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Pedro and Witsel in before transfer window closes or this will be happening more often next season. Can see this season a repeat of 2010-11 but with Jose not getting sacked at the end and we go spend big again next summer even though we should be doing it now.

Jase 43,479 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Even though our current squad does need improvement in certain area, Mourinho isn't going to panic over one defeat in pre-season, especially with the NY Red Bulls game being our first. We did lose 3-0 to Werder Bremen last year after all.But if we also lose to PSG, Barcelona, Arsenal and even Fiorentina... jeronimo, darrus and Fernando 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellzfresh 7,229 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Our first pre-season game but our finishing was woeful as usual. Griezmann, Reus, Pedro on the right can solve this. Holding the ball against pressing teams with ramires playing is a disaster if either fabregas or Matic gets injured. Witsel, aranguiz, javi Martinez will solve this. But we're happy with what we have... Let's hope our first team starters don't injure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henrique 9,133 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 After last season it was clear the team need improvements. I don't get why people realizes it after a pre season friendly match. stroey and Peace. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! Fernando 6,585 Posted July 23, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted July 23, 2015 People are ridiculous freaking out over a pre season match. I didn't even watch it and even after looking at the score I didn't care. Because you know what? Pre season means nothing. It's just there to help your players get in shape. A training session nothing more. Heisenberg, supporter, kmk108 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! Pizy 18,944 Posted July 23, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted July 23, 2015 This quote scares me a bit. It doesn't really sound like a typical José mind game where he lies to the media about transfers. We HAD the best team in England LAST season. There's no guarantee that everyone will perform as well as they did last season or even stay fit. Plus ALL of our rivals will have improved drastically.City, Arsenal, United, and Liverpool have all splashed the cash on players that will directly improve their first XI. Are we seriously not going to sign any quality additions!? zolayes, TheIceMan, didierforever and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! Despiadado.Maleante 1,046 Posted July 23, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted July 23, 2015 Mourinho: We have already sold Filipe Luis. We do not need a substitute. We have a squad already complete and in that role there is Cesar Azpilicueta, who is the best left-back in the Premier LeagueSeriously starting to piss me off. Does he not understand that squad depth/ qulity depth was our biggest issue last season. Not only has the squad been made smaller its lost quality aswell. xPetrCechx, Henrique, Vybz Kartel and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! zolayes 14,489 Posted July 23, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted July 23, 2015 last year we were very lucky with regards to injuries especially in comparison to the other top sides . We MAY not be so lucky this time , I fear we do not have the depthto deal with an injury crisis. stroey, Henrique, RoyalBlues and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
