Pacquiao 1,834 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 That reminds me.I knew the international break would do feck all. I knew that these players won't be motivated. It wouldn't add up at all.Stop trying to be the TY of Chelsea. How can you defend Mourinho after 5 poor performances (just because we won at West Brom doesn't mean it wasn't poor), what he says in the press conferences and him adding unnecessary drama?And tell us we have short memories! We aren't dumb, we don't suffer short-term memory loss. We fucking remember.Last fucking season was last fucking season. Just because Mourinho won us the PL last season, don't mean he now has the right to sink Chelsea to the ground like this. He is suppose to improve us, lead us, guide us to better things. Not make it worse and turn us into a major crisis. 4 points in 5 games is way beyond terrible.You cannot defend him that he continues to use his favourites including the worst player in Chelsea right now - Ivanovic. "But there isn't anyone better than him!" - BS. What is something special about Ivanovic now that anyone else can't do? Ivanovic can't cross, can't defend, slow as fuck, looks like he doesn't give a damn...Literally almost anyone will be better than Ivanovic, just bench him.I'm tired of people defending players (or the manager) that have been absolute woeful, and use "history" as their defense to try and make us shut up. No. I won't accept these consistent terrible performances from Chelsea at all. They are getting paid big bucks to do feck all at the moment. It's a disgrace for a top club like us to have an increasing negative goal difference, sitting much close to the relegation zone, 11 points behind and no signs of improvement.We are suppose to play like defending champions, not like chumpions or Derby County when they were in the PL.We are suppose to look forward to the next game, having confidence that we'll beat said team. Right now, most of us have ZERO confidence because of Mourinho's stubbornness.having meltdowns after 5 games isn't my style, I'm afraid. I will come back and quote you once we sort ourselves out and see if you're still having a meltdown. In the meantime, Chin Up.

Azul 1,615 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 If people who really understand about the game were rulling the club Mourinho would be sacked at this point. But it seems that Gravoskaya girl is the one playing the cards, and according to reports she was the one responsible for Mourinho return and for his stupid contract extension months ago. I see Mourinho keeping his jop even the club can't even reach the UCL next season.Abramovich calls the shots though, he really does not give a f*ck about contracts.

Oscar 441 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Sorry what?Azpi is as good as it gets from a defensive POV.He's good defensively, but offensively he's not as a fullback, especially a Spanish fullback. I blame Jose, but even if he plays on the right side, I don't think he is that good as a offensive fullback.come on, what? two of the four are not quick enough. Cesc is not strong enough back there.I say 3 of the 4 are not quick enough and Cesc is better suited in a 4-3-3, but in terms of the EPL, outside of City, I can't imagine a better combo than Matic-Cesc.In europe, most definitely, you are 100% correct, England, not so sure.

Furthermore the ones who are great going forward leave a lot to be desired as an actual defender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! striker 43 Posted September 12, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted September 12, 2015 that's the thing... the problems from last season aren't this big.There has been problems, many people pointed them out. Let's not pretend we played this bad last season. The players look disinterested. It's like they're resting in their laurels (winning the league) and won't bother. Further proof of that is if they all sudden show up in the UCL.Mourinho made mistakes then and now, but he isn't the only problem. That's an ignorant statement and giving the players any excuse for their behavior is a bigger one. They're very well paid by the club, they SHOULD at least show up.We play exactly as bad as at the end of last season. The only difference is that now we don't have the luck we had last season and Hazard is not as exceptional as he was then.A great coach should have looked through the luck and the individual brilliance and he should have done something about the problems that were already there.Because he neglected to do that he should be sacked!So that is not A small mistake. That is A big mistake and for that he should be sacked!I never understood why they extended his contract! zolayes, tawee75, Mana and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eidur the Spider 4,515 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 I'm still trying to get my head around this ridiculously poor form. It's not like this is a totally different team that was shutting out teams towards the end of last season and blowing away teams at the beginning. I'll go through some points that are rattling around in the old noggin that should be addressed. - The team selection. We've been found out, simple as. We were far too reliant on Eden last season, especially towards the end, and now that he is misfiring (in a passing and dribbling sense as well as finishing), we are floundering. I have never been a fan of Cesc playing alongside Matic, don't get me wrong he's had some great performances attacking wise from there, but defensively it always felt like Nemanja was doing two jobs. The right back position is a massive worry but it shouldn't be, We have one of the best full backs in the world playing out of position because Jose for whatever reason he has in his mind (be it leadership or whatever) thinks Brana is the man for the job. I will never understand this, his goals/assists last season were just painting over the cracks of a dreadful season in a positional sense and I hope we part ways in the summer. He is too much of a liability positionally. - Mourinho doesn't become a bad manager overnight, much like the team doesn't. I do worry about this 'third season syndrome' but I do genuinely believe he is the man to get us out of this. I hope he has seen the light now (finally!!) about our defence, but who knows. We shouldn't be too quick on the trigger finger. We need consistency in our management. I don't want to end up hiring a manager a season for short term success. I know that sounds crazy to most on here who would want Klopp, Simeone or another flavour of the year. I just hope he gets his head out of his ass and finds his 'special one' manual again because the moaning/covering up for bad performances isn't helping anyone, especially the players.- Speaking of the players, they need to take responsibility for this,. From the start of this season we have been coasting, some more than others, Cesc, Eden, Diego in particular, They need to shape up, I know there is some problems with team selection but in my mind the attacking players we put out should be producing more and working harder than they currently are. We know what they can achieve, we saw it last season. - Transfer window, that was a bloody disaster for me. We have coasted in a different way here. We have focused on squad depth rather than improving and challenging the current crop of players who have become complacent. While Man City, Man Utd and even teams like Swansea have strengthened, we just floundered. Begovic was a great signing as was Pedro, Falcao is always going to be a troublesome one (especially when he's preferred to Remy for whatever reason), and don't get me started on the defender we got. It was a weak window where we needed to be strong like the year previous. Anyway I've got it out of my system now, I just hope we start getting results, even if its a midweek game against Maccabi, that would put a smile on my face, it feels like there's no win coming.

When your getting the piss taken out of you tactically by the likes of Pardew, Monk and Martinez it goes to show your being left behind by managers who just pinpoint a couple of weaknesses in the team mainly Ivan and Fairy Ass and exploit them.

His passing ability is also significantly better and his decision making....His movement maybe looks average because he has this guy that occupies all the space inside the box aka cristiano.

Also, what happened to the idea of dropping players who simply aren't pulling their weight!! A bit of tough love needs to be in full force!

Popular Post! kobematabryant 400 Posted September 12, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted September 12, 2015 l'm sorry, but what the fuck are you talking about? too much blame? are you kidding me? he's playing Iva all the fucking time even if the whole world knows he's wbeen shit. he doesn't take responsibility blaming everybody else. he picks a fight with every body... he can go fuck himself and fuck anybody defending him todayWell Mourinho, for one, was not able to sign his number 1 targets in the summer. We were after John Stones and Abdennour as our primary targets in the transfer windows as full backs. We had to settle down signing second tier players like Papy Djilobodji. Mourinho has been a victim of the transfer window, not working for him. Yes I agree, his love for Iva is actually getting annoying but who else is he going to play? Baba Rahman? Unproven still.Listen, every manager has these moments where nothing is working out. It happened with Pep, Klopp, Ancelotti, Hiddink, you name it. Mourinho should not be sacked for the form of our attacking players like Hazard or Cesc. Only Pedro has been decent. The fans need to work closely with Jose, and put faith in him. Listen, this man has won us 3 titles of the 4 PL titles we've won. This man is Chelsea, and it's disgusting to see fickle fans treat him like this. We Chelsea fans need to learn from Dortmund fans. They were in relegation zone for 2 months under Klopp but still trusted him. As Mourinho said today, http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34233979NOBODY is better than him, in terms of managing Chelsea. He knows best and I have faith in him still. Name me ONE manager that can take over Chelsea tomorrow and bring success. No one would. Actually, what would be funny is if we win the Champions League or FA cup this year, fickle fans will be back celebrating Mourinho.

Don't want to see him replaced as he's better than this. Besides, we'd only go back to that constant 'transition' phase with a new boss every 6 months. I really don't want to go back to that.

Actually, what would be funny is if we win the Champions League or FA cup this year, fickle fans will be back celebrating Mourinho. 1. Dortmund fans are patience with Klopp because it is not entirely his fault for their shit season last year, Gundogan and Reus were out for the majority of it, losing his best mid the previous summer and then best striker for free. Jose will get similar sympathies have we gone on and sold Hazard, Costa with Matic suffering a serious injury and ruled out for 5 months.2. No shit he would say that, what else would he say? I am out of ideas and don't know what to do, please hire someone else? haha and funny you should say, I can name at least 10 managers in the world who would WIN A TROPHY WITH THIS CHELSEA TEAM. Unless you mean success by consistent league and CL success then no shit, obviously no one can.3. Your last point is hilarious, erm yh we would celebrate if we win something like that. Do you think people are demanding for Jose to be sacked because we all hate him or something? No we want change because it seems he is out of his depth now and his presence here is causing more harm than good. That is like saying a striker is good if he scores goal, captain obvious...

If Chelsea had two other strong and capable box-to-boxers, we wouldn't have anything discuss but the manager. But as things are, the squad and the manager are to blame.

Pizy 18,963 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 We're all salty about this whole situation but I think people are being a bit harsh on José. Yes, some of this is his fault. His stubbornness and ego are huge issues.If I'm assigning blame I'd put 60% of it on the players and 40% of it on Mourinho. What excuse do players like Hazard, Fabregas, Costa, Terry, and Ivanovic have for just going to complete shit so suddenly? It's seriously mind boggling. These were all PL team of the season players just a few months ago and are now just shit? Come on. That's not all on José. These guys have to pull their fingers out and play to their true standard.I'm not sensing any animosity or getting the impression that players are unhappy with him or don't want to play for him. It just so happens that all of the players in terrible form are the most important ones in the XI.One more week like this one, though, and I'd fear for my job if I were José. If we get humiliated by Arsenal and all of our rivals pull even further away it could be curtains.
