We didn't play better football last season, that is a myth mainly created by Rafa lovers and there agendas.

Robbie tried to change the style we played and the end result was a catastrophic nose dive that saw us win twice in 9 games prior to his sacking (a run that was extended to 2 in 12 after Benny's horror start) and one off them was against United's B team/youth after extra time.

The football we play just has to be better really. How do you explain the fact that we played better football last season with less resources? The line-up yesterday was quite frankly ridiculous. Jose seems more concerned with not losing than winning and it shows.

Our general build-up play when we play against lesser teams we are expected to play has been appalling for most of the season, tbh. There is simply zero fluency and we have been relying far too much on the individual brilliance of Hazard. How do you explain the fact that teams like Everton and Liverpool play much better football than us. Look at the flair/ball-playing players we have : Hazard, Willian, Oscar, Schurrle, Salah, Matic. Most teams in the league will die for those players. This is why Roman has signed these type of players for Chelsea. To play good football, not to play with Azpilicueta at right wing. That's a joke and a slap in the face to Schurrle and Oscar and to our so-called "evolution".

Taking sentiment out of it, the fact is that through out his career, Jose has never built a team that plays expansive possession based attacking football. It's almost always counter-attacking football. Now this is all fine and dandy when you are winning stuff, but when the trophies stop coming, people will get bored very quickly. Jose said we should judge him by what he will do in his second coming and that is what I'm going to do.

The excuse of having the "physical" and less "technical" players like Drogba, Essien, Ballack, Malouda and so on no longer holds water. The job of a Chelsea manager, and any manager at a big club is to win trophies and play attractive football. We have taking massive strides in the former which is brilliant, but we have failed woefully in the latter. And that could soon become a problem for Roman and that is what I fear.

Good post. Carlo sacking is still one that makes me angry. Crazy to sack him, we did the double breaking the record for most goals in the Premiership, If it wasn't for a Jose masterclass at the Bridge, We probably would have won the Champions League. Now at Real he's doing to Di Maria what he did to Malouda. He needed to be given the money AVB got to bring in a few new players for us.

It was the sacking that pained me the most after mourinho. We played our best football in 10 years and we sacked him, I almost cried hearing that news

As I said so many times, Jose is the best tactician around, but are we not brave enough to admit, to criticize some of his shortcomings or the other players?

After all, these threads are here to write our opinions or are they not?

How can anyone be happy to see Chelsea under his guidance playing this shitty parking the bus?

Don´t we remember why Roman was not too happy with Mateo´s style of play?

Do any of you think, Roman is going to pump millions into this club just to see parking the bus, Chelsea being ridiculed, laughed at in every newspaper in Europe? Well, have I got news for you. Roman will give Jose until December to change the direction of Chelsea, play decent football as expected & if Jose fails, he is packing his bags again. I have no doubts about it.

I am almost certain, Roman loves this club, wants to see this club to be considered among the best, but is not willing to wait for four years for Jose to deliver the goods.

Because:

1) our previous two campaigns saw us struggle in the Prem for CL qualification

2) As the holders we got knocked out at the group stages

Jesus - how short is your memory?

Mourinho has stabilised the team and when he has the attacking players he needs - will redress the balance!

You're acting like we have a world beating team at the minute - WE DON'T

Jose is extracting the best from what he has - whilst reaching the Semi finals and keeping us in with a shout of the league!

So yeah - I have a problem with people talking shit about the team and Jose.

I have a problem with people being blind & not seeing the squad that can play much better than parking the bus.

No we couldn't.

[bushman 2,043]

No we couldn't.

Yes, we could.

[iseah100 5,612]

Yes, we could.

Nuh uh.

[Reddish-Blue 2,370]

No we couldn't.

Yes, we could...it would just mean we would concede a few more goals throughout the season

Parking the bus isn't the only option Jose seems more concerned about conceding goals than scoring freely...

[bushman 2,043]

To say, Chelsea could not have played better against Aston & Sunderland has been just clueless viewed, in my opinion.

Concede a few more goals???

LOSE MATCHES YOU MEAN?
