Question, so is February 22, 2014 the Day where Bad Footie triumphed over Good Footie? I just remember the argument on this very thread where CFC doesn't play proper footie, but Barca does. So CFC wins on a last minute goal today, while Barca gets creamed by Real Sociedad :o Good day for Evil Mourinho & his evil minions Chelsea Football?

not quite Arse won and Shrek scored ,,, so there is a God after all

Yeah that's true, and even some Barcelona fans that I know are saying that as well.

That being said, if City can't beat this woeful Barcelona then they are not as good as we thought they where.

Fucking hell.... "Woeful Barcelona side"

Do you reckon Scunthorpe could beat this "Woeful Barcelona side"?

Mourinho had an interview with Canal+ this week.

He said that:- Hazard is our boy, the image of the new Chelsea, here for the next ten years.

- Cavani and Zlatan are impossible to buy.

- He don't want to go to PSG or Monaco, he's here to stay.

- We won't win the league because our strikers aren't good enough.

- "I don't have a striker, Falcao doesn't have a team" (Monaco plays in a empty stadium, 2k per week)

Someone said "what are you missing ?" José:"a good striker", "but you have Eto'o", José:"Naaaah, he's already 32 or maybe 35 idk"

Did he really say that? =\

Mourinho was surprisingly very honest in the interviews with Canal+. To the British press he implies our strikers aren't good enough by saying they're not the type to score lots of goals but they work hard for the team etc. and that we're not ready this season (intimates because of lack of good striker) but in these clips he just came out and said it.

A subtle hint?

He said it would be impossible to buy Falcao as he did with Cavani and Ibra, but you do get the feeling that with the whole 'I have a team... I don't have a striker... He has no team' chat the club may pursue Falcao in the summer, although I'd rather we didn't because of his ACL injury, and plus whilst he is a very good finisher I wouldn't say he's a world-class striker (not very good link-up play) and thus wouldn't warrant the outrageous fees we'd have to pay to get him.

Pretty much although Namika's translations are paraphrased rather than exact. What's so =\ about it?

‘My team is not a team that scores a lot of goals,’ Mourinho conceded. ‘If they (Everton) had scored before us, I think we are not a team that in normal conditions would be able to score two goals and win the game. That is why I put Ramires on — to give more consistency to our midfield.’

Would you like to coach a french team one day ?

I am really really happy right now with Chelsea, which is more than a club for me, I have a special history with Chelsea. Also I like the current project/ambitions of Chelsea. But why not working in France in the future. I think that nowadays some leagues are less attractive than the BPL, because it's too easy to say who's gonna win the title, who will be the second... Right now in my career I feel that I need more suspens than that.

Qatari's emir reallu likes you, you were his priority last summer, how did you manage to deny his proposals ?

I didn't say yes or no, because I didn't receive any concrete, direct offer. Yes we have contacts and we respect each other, I had the honor to wisit his mansion in Qatar a few years ago, before he would buy PSG. But after Real Madrid I was very direct, I said to everybody my wish was to go back to England, to Chelsea, and I didn't want to encourage false hopes. Like right now when I say i want to stay at Chelsea, where I have a four years contract.

Is PSG a favourite contender for the CL this year ?

It's hard to call them favourites. PSG has some great players which are at the peak of their career, who have experience, so I think that if they win, it would not a big surprise. But if they don't, it wouldn't be a surprise either.

Would you like to have Zlatan at Chelsea ?

It's impossible. It's another topic on which i don't whant to entertain false hopes because it's impossible. I know he is happy at Paris because we have contacts. Paris doesn't want him to leave, and with their financial power, it's mission impossible.

What about Edinson Cavani, is it mission impossible ?

I think so, because PSG have spent a lot of money on him, he has incredible wages. Maybe not as impossible as Zlatan because Zlatan is more important in the club structure, but also very difficult. I don't know how the other club plan things, but at Chelsea we think the financial fair play is coming very soon. Some clubs seem not to be aware of that, but Chelsea now is working to be at the equilibrium, financially speaking. That makes some things impossible to Chelsea, or at least more difficult.

But do you like Edinson Cavani's profile ?

Yes I do, i think he's an excellent player.

How about a switch Cavani/Hazard, is that possible ?

No, Eden is our boy. It's our star for the ten years to come, around which we will build the team. He has this style of football, style of being that we want to have.

Even for 100m euros ?

That would mean there is no FFP. And even if there is FFP, we would have the money to deny such an offer.

Thank You José Mourinho, you speak french so well, you will coach Paris or Monaco one day, won't you ?

I speak english better.

(laughters)

What happened to the quotes where he said our strikers don't score? I also heard he said falcao shouldn't play in monaco??

Did he really say that??

A notion that is true and probably also want to get a reaction from Eto'o, Torres and Ba. Need them to perform and score as much as possible if we are to achieve our targets in this run-in.

Mourinho: "I have a team, but no striker. Falcao does not have a team. A player like him can't play in front of 3,000 people... AS Monaco is a club to end [your career with]" (Canal)

What does it mean...

I must know how our strikers feeling when they read Jose's quotes every week, he completely say it out loud that his strikers are crap lol

Yes, he said all those things in another video (http://www.canalplus.fr/c-sport/c-football/c-ligue-1/pid6219-canal-football-club.html?vid=1025868) which is not the "official" interview, it's a "casual" conversation with some guy I don't know, who seems to be there to welcome him in France or smthg.

As you saw, he did not talk about Falcao in the interview, he talked about him behind the cameras (sort of), when he also joked about Etoo's age, so he might of actually meant it that it is impossible to sign him. As I stated in the Falcao topic, he is my favourite CF and I won't change my opinion and as much as I want him here, at the same time I'm worried about his knee injuries. Back in 2006 he suffered the same injury (torn ACL), but at the right knee. Now, it's the left knee, so basically we have a player who suffered horrible injuries at his both knees. I'm not a doctor, but this can't be good, this is one of the worst injuries you can get as a football player. For some it's even a miracle to be back at their highest level. Add to this the money Monaco would demand and Falcao's wages and this transfer seems impossible, as Jose said.

But I wonder - no Cavani, no Falcao, no Rooney. Then who? Benzema (with Suarez going to Madrid)? Diego Costa? Balotelli? Jackson Martinez?
