Very true and I agree.

But still does not deflect that we where dog shit and got lucky.

People just like to create controversy instead of focusing what is really going on.

I wish I was a reporter so can I ask smarter question then what these guys ask.

If reporters had any brains they would ask a lot questions to alot of people

PLEASE START MATAAA IN THE CENTRE. Hazard on the left and Willian on the right. Mikel and Rami at the back. Mikel holds Rami goes.

Think he was smart in starting Mikel, Ramires and Lampard in the mid.

West Ham are a very physical side, so we needed also strong bodies in our team.

I thought Ba would have also been a better starter for this game then Eto.

But overall when playing against West Ham you expect a very ugly tough tackles game.

He got shit from most people, including me, for picking this formation and yet we played our best game so far IMO. I'll proudly eat some humble pie.

[kellzfresh 7,229]

Have some too guys

[Henrique 9,133]

Great today, have to admit.

[The_Flash 1,144]

He was great tonight, loved the bit after penalty he looked like he was saying to the officials are they going to get a phone call as he made a phone signal, lol

JOSE IS THE MAN TO LEAD US TO VICTORY

[Henrique 9,133]

Im afraid the team will keep using the 4-3-3 formation...

[Strike 7,262]

I feared the worst with the lineup. A refreshing performance in the end. Best since Hull on the opening day

[Jase 43,479]

Have some too guys

Don't see what was wrong with people questioning Mourinho's selection before the game. It's not like everyone, or some at least, were doing that just because they didn't like Mourinho or hated the fact that their favorite players were sitting on the bench and not playing. The reasons thrown out were rather justified given the recent happenings with players' form, team's performances and Mourinho's decision making.

The team selection yesterday did indeed proved to be worthwhile after all but more importantly and thankfully, the players actually turned up and put in a convincing performance for a change - was arguably the best away performance of the season - though that was also partly down to the rubbish-ness of West Ham. A win is a win nonetheless I supposed and hope we can continue with this!

[Strike 7,262]

This picture is the best thing to come out of this game other than the 3 points

Exactly. I was furious with the selection too but gladly he didn't really plan on just keeping ramires on the right and it looked like a 4-3-3 with lampard bombing forward like he used to do beside ballack.

Oscar and hazard finally played very well in the same match together was another unnoticed positive.
