Benzema & Pepe being the main 2 springing to mind, should remind people that it's nothing new, players playing despite awful form. It is what it is with Mourinho and so fucking sadly it won't change

Not playing Luis was terrible. Buying Cuadrado just to have such role for such big money is terrible. Not playing Remy more was questionable. Giving Ake #6, first team etc was plain bullshit from Mourinho. Ake should play more in certain games IMO if he was given place.

Sure first team members have performed, but there is no doubt Iva, Costa, Willian, Oscar should be dropped more. Mou fucked up in this department no doubt.

If he was to play Ake and then Ake made a mistake that cost us the game, how many of you would blame Mourinho for the loss?

Also Mourinho made it clear that Cuadrado would have a bigger role next season.

It's not like our current midfielders are playing perfect football without any mistakes...we clearly need a burst in energy, someone fresh in midfield

And anyway, if Aké did make a mistake on the pitch, I'm sure he would learn from that and make a better decision next time (just like any other youngster in world football)

I wouldn't blame Mourinho, I would praise him for having the balls to play Aké

I think that on a club like ours where every loss / draw is an authentic drama that seems the world is running out Jose does well be very cautious with young boys.

If Nathan Ake or Ruben Loftus-Cheek had played on Sunday they would probably be the focus of all criticism. It's sad, but a bad result brings out many unjustified criticism.

With 20 years a player is not ready for criticism. The press makes a fierce criticism against players for Absolutely dramatize everything.

I think that Jose managed well the policy of our young players. He uses this process with young players:

1. First they hit Jose makes training every day with him to internalize their methods / philosophy.

2. After Jose gives them an opportunity without any kind of risk.

3. If the youngster has good acting / performance, Jose gives him another chance in several consecutive games.

4. Jose puts him in a more or less important match.

5. If he has responded with its performance, Jose puts him in a big match.

6. If the player manages to pass each level, he is important for us (Kurt Zouma).

I think it's a wise not to "kill" the progress of our young players process.

In football sometimes critics are crazy. One day you are the best ever and the next you're the worst garbage of the universe.

For me go step by step with young kids is the best policy.


About Cuadrado, For me it is impossible to criticize him because he has not played practically. but Jose warned that Cuadrado will be important next season.

He has come here at a very difficult time for us, with matches with very high demands. Maybe it would have been unwise to put a player who has just arrived.

With Jose many players need time to adapt their working methods and Cuadrado is now at that stage. We have signed a Cuadrado for the next 4 seasons, not just for four months. Step by step.

Regards to ALL.

Can you bring any examples where he's done that bar Varane and Zouma?

Hi friend!

Right now Zouma is on the fourth level (4. Jose puts him in a more or less Important match) since the end only juice that we have played this season. At the beginning of the season Zouma never played because he was learning from Jose each entrenamierto. after he had a few minutes in games without risk (excepting the game against United, but it was a different situation) and then Zouma has begun to be important to us. Right now no one doubts that he will have a great future with us.

And Varane also passes through those levels. He came to Real Madrid in 2011 but it was not important to Jose until January 2013. As Zouma, Varane did not practically minutes in his first months with Jose but gradually was still important for Real Madrid.

The time when Varane arrived at the fifth level (5. If I've Respond With Its performance, Jose puts him in a big match.) when Jose gave him his big break in the Spanish Cup against Barcelona at Bernabeu. That was in January 2013, 18 months after his arrival at Real Madrid.

Zouma and Varane are the best examples for believing that go step by step is better with young players than take risks.

Regards.

I asked to bring examples bar them two. Both of them are extraordinary talents that were brought in not exactly for small money. He's been in management for 15 years, so far we have only two very recent examples. Any more? I'm genuinely asking because I'm not that familiar in depth what he did outside of Chelsea.

Hi friend,

I think Zouma is already in level 6, according to your formula.

He played many cup games and some CL games an did well (level 4) and then Mou put him against Liverpool and Mancity instead of Cahill (level 5) and hem performed well (level 6). He even trust him so much to play him out of position in midfield (level 7 [emoji12])

He did the same with Ake at the beginning of the season, Ake also played many cup games and had some time in the CL but unfortunately Ake got injured. After that he didn't get back into the team, because we arrived in an important part of the season.

I also think, when Mou wins this year's EPL he will have more balls to play open football, more attacking football, more youngsters and more rotation. Currently he is too afraid to risk things. That EPL title would bring us to a total new level, I really believe.

It's hard to talk about Mourinho philosophy in bringing youth, where he only brought Davide Santon directly from the Academy.

I seriously doubt that the press would be hard on youngster. Seriously ? They rather would point what was good, especially if that youngster was English.

Remember when he put all the blame on Schurrle for City equaliser while it was Ivanovic who completely switched off in that action ?

His allegiance to his leutanents is uncanny.

I hope so too ! First thing first, start making substitutions before 70th minute.

Chelsea 1st spell - Mikel? I forgot

Inter - Santon

Real - Varane (Nacho, Morata)

Chelsea - Zouma, (Ake)

We should not forget this project is also new to Mourinho, to cope with FFP, implement youngsters, work for a long time.

When he arrived in his past clubs, the main goal was fast trophies and he succeeded.

The longest time at 1 club was 3,25 years (first spell Chelsea)

Now this is a new project, Mou wants to stay here to be our Sir Alex, and if he win things, the club wants him to stay too.

But first things first, he needs to win the EPL to be calm again and to convince the board he is still the man for this job. He has a lot of pressure, we've seen the relieve when he won the COC, the celebration and smile. But that's just the starter, EPL is the main course.

It's like a poker player desperately grinding himself into the money before making risky moves, cause he needs the money so badly.

So when it's done (win the EPL), he will have less pressure, which means more space for mistakes, more space to try new things like more attacking formations, more space to play youngsters like he mentioned with RLC next season (as he expect to win the title).

So let's hope we win the EPL, it would be the best thing for our club's stability and future improvements.

Winning the title will mean nothing in terms of Jose giving more chances to youngsters. Some managers believe in youth, give them a chance to impress...other managers prefer the short-term approach.

The biggest indicator for me was the dead rubber we played in the last round of UCL group games. Mourinho could have fielded 2-3 youngsters for the full game...but instead, he played the same lineup and gave Ruben Loftus Cheek a worthless 8 minutes.
