Jase 43,479 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 You have to take into account the rise of Gary Cahill. I don't think any of us saw the improvement he would make this season. He's one of the top centre backs in the world at the minute in my opinion. It would be foolish to disrupt him and JT to allow Luiz, who is good defensively, but doesn't have the concentration or composure to play at CB.People are missing the point. All I said was the irony in Mourinho's comments where he said one thing but does another. It just felt silly he kinda backed himself into a corner by saying he won't do A but does just that (maybe as I said previously that was just mentioned as part of his attack on Benitez). That's all, just on the comment alone. His subsequent actions is beside the point. Henrique 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rmpr 8,977 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 and when he was at Madrid Pepe played in the midfield too. It's a tactical move instead of an enforced move.Not really!It was not like he played Pepe in the midfield once in a while or whatever. It was just in that series of 4-5 matches against Barcelona in 2011-12 when he was trying to stop Messi... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His subsequent actions is beside the point.Yes, I see you point, but I'm saying that even Jose didn't know that Cahill would be this good, meaning Luiz wouldn't get a look in at CB, but still thinks he could use him in the pivot.Mourinho said at the start of the season that he lies, Its all in his character.

I'd personally like to see Bamford get the chance here. Obviously Ba is the better player, but I desperately want to see an academy player do well here.Besides, Ba is delusional to believe his situation is going to change.

The only place to be 11,313 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 In the latest instalment of Fuck The FAChelsea coach Rui Faria has had his appeal against a six-match stadium ban and £30,000 fine in relation to the Sunderland game on 19 April 2014 partly upheld by an Appeals Board.Mr Faria was handed the punishment after he admitted using abusive and/or insulting words towards the Fourth Official and that his behaviour following the Match Referee's request that he leave the technical area amounted to improper conduct.The Appeal Board ordered that the final two matches of the six-match stadium ban be suspended for 12 months and so they will only be invoked upon a proven breach of FA Rule E3 during that period.The £30,000 fine he was given at the original Independent Regulatory Commission hearing remains unchanged.Read more at http://www.thefa.com/news/governance/2014/may/rui-faria-appeal-partially-upheld#fbQxxUyqDp3P1J0d.99Meh, not too bad.

If Costa gets into his strike, he won't even get half the games he got this seasonits overkill if u ask me!!! lukaku is 21, as will be balmford when the season starts. u cant have 2 kids leading your line if suppose costa gets injured for a month or 2. also JOSE does not seem to strike as someone who would do that. with matic in, we might start going into games as 4-1-3-2. or atleast at the start of second half if we are trailing/drawing the match.

We support the club. If the club is on par with Mourinho philosophy then so be it. But just like the club is supporting Mourinho, it won't support failure for too long.

But that has not happen, so until then stop bitching and moaning and support the club. Exactly, he will be sacked if we don't anything major next season so people need to stop hating on him just because he sold Mata and Luiz. Just like if Hazard sulks and demand a transfer to somewhere like PSG, we will sell him for a world record fee and sign a proper replacement. But all of these are just possibilities, just support the present atm and don't look too far into the future.The last line of your post is spot on.

Most of the players that have left / will probably leave are at the end of their careers. Only Luiz and Mata are in their prime and Luiz wasnt offering much this season anyway.Cant believe the negativity has started before the season has begun. darrus and Duppy Conqueror 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
