The Mourinho Thread

[sdrcfc 461]

Sorry to bust your bubble but Suarez release clause is 100m for English teams and 60m for European teams

Nope, 80m.

[Jype 6,398]

Out: Mata, De Bruyne, Bertrand, Essien (?), Ba (?)

In: Matic, Salah, new defender (?), new CF (?)

Some of these have already happened and some are heavily rumoured. Mourinho turned this January window into real life Football Manager, players coming and going like crazy.

So all that change in philosophy in our playing style was all BS then. Too bad.

I'm not complaining about the results that it'll give us...but we've already been there, done that. Mata was practically made for that kind of football. Well, at least I know to never take José at face value again. I was looking forward to the change, even if that meant taking a few losses along the way.

So just because our philosophy is not possession based it means we're playing boring football? right...

[Rubber bullets 1,183]

It makes me laugh those who are slagging of some of the posters here as Mata fan boys or Plastic fans because they said something that was not praising Mourinho all the time are in themselves not Chelsea fans but just Mourinho worshipers who think of him first before the club

Exactly!!

People just assume everyone loves possession football. I very much prefer quick counter football. I think the bayern vs dortmund champs league final was one of the best uefa final. And it was between two teams who play quick counter attacking football. How bayern played last season on the counter with robben and ribery terrorizing on the wings is how I pray we play.

Not passing for 10mins just because you can.

What about the UEFA super cup against Bayern?

We counter attack and they just attack and attack and attack.

I love that shit!

It was amazing, total futbol from Bayern, not that boring tiki taka from Barcelona.

David Luiz gonna be sold next, probably our last expensive departure under Jose. Maybe £30-£40m from Barca as well, use the money to sign Shaw, Zouma and then left over for a top class striker like Costa in the summer. The only other big name leaving is probably Cech if Courtois is recalled, but it appears Jose don't give a fuck about that so we might sell Courtois for like 25m or swap with Costa or something.

GK: Hilario leaving

Def: Luiz leaving probably, Cole too, Bertrands career here is also over

Mid: Essien definitely, maybe Mikel if he isn't needed for the next 6 months, Josh as well and a lot of loanne

Att: Eto'o 100%, Torres hopefully even though impossible, Ba probably

The likes of Shaw, Zouma, Costa/Martinez/Rooney or any top class striker coming in. CANNOT WAIT FOR THE FUTURE UNDER OUR BEST MANAGER EVER.

I don't think Luiz will go, he has unlike Mata changed Joses mind about him, he now think he's great player.

He can't go anywhere

[Christo191 173]

Fucking hell, Jose! I can't study for 15 minutes without us signing or selling someone. If I fail my exams, I blame you!

Same here mate!

If we lose Ba, Etoo and Torres who we going to play?

People tend to forget rather quickly and be without respect to those who have achieved never-seen results in the club's history. You can organize something uniform, but if you lose your creativity and personality with selling the grey cells, you will never win anything. The more people keep on saying you-know-who knows better, the more people will believe that they think the same and approve such a dumb act like selling the player who belongs to our history in an organic way.

I actually think possession football is boring as fuck... I hate watching Spain and Barce-yawn-lona play...

[duo11bluecl 207]

Diego Costa or Jackson Martinez or Rooney along with Lukaku

[The_Flash 1,144]

Please not Rooney :/

He was our best player in our 2 worst seasons ???

Yes he's good

BUT the team looks much better now - anybody can see that. Teams win trophies!!!

I'm gutted he went to Man U - but that's life, I wish him well and no luck at all to the Mancs.

Take it on the chin. It's got nothing to do with brainwashing - it's called 'manning the fuck up' - life is cruel and unfair, the quicker you realise that, the better!
