Closed Chelsea 3-1 Sunderland

[Rhino's Skin 972]

Recently? Fabregas few times was on bench but it was clear he is under form but Jose picked him to many time. Costa was dropped 1/2 times? And he once showed his angry. But he played many matches when Remy was fit.

But it's still supposition. We cant know what really had done between Jose and players.

We will never know the full truth but match going support that follow Chelsea are very forgiving.

They support their own through thick and thin....Torres being a prime example when it would have been easy to turn on him.

Today was a rare occassion....just to let them know that the club is also about the fans and they had better not forget that.

They will all be cheered again soon...dont worry about that.

Lets hope this wakes a couple of them up and they put in decent shifts

Pretty much. See Man Utd, booed their whole team off for the second consecutive match. We've been far shitter than that but it only took the sacking to finally release some anger.

Next match will be far more unified - although the Jose chants will probably stay a little longer.

Can't even spell Hazard right but sure a "real fan".

Wind it in mate it's a hastily constructed poster and I'm fairly sure illiteracy is not grounds for exclusion from being a fan...

Your missing the common denominator. Mourinho is not bigger than the club and that is what I think a huge chunk of fans have unofrtunately started to believe. There is more support going around in the stadiums and forums for him than the actual team. We were hovering 1 point above relegation and yeah players have been bad but people think Mourinho is this god when the truth is he deserved the sack. He definitely has a huge cult of followers though. More allegiances to him than the actual club. Just WOW.

I wanted it to work out so much, put my heart into it.

No one can deny that Jose Mourinho is a special person for this club, so a lot of people cut him more slack than others,

it hasn't always been the most rational discussions, but that's love, at least for some of the fans.

It's already been said but it's like a get together with your favorite ex and for some time both of you have a great time, after it especially one part tries to get back to it but impossible, it only gets worse. Most likely not rational thinking but you don't fuckin' care till the end.

I have seen it all before...

It was the first game after Mourinho's sacking, so very emotional for some fans.

But we all go to matches because we want to see our team play, nowadays we don't pay to have Jose Mourinho around,

but we're still going, so priorities are clear, imo.

Chanting the name of our most successful manager ever is a class act, he's our legend, imo.

But that's the legend, we come to see our team and appreciate the beautiful game, sticking it to some Spuds or Goonettes is nice too...

Cheers, mate.

I dont like the singling out of individual players, but theyre not fucking gods, and deserve to recognise, that we pay for their mansions, ferraris, and as such have to earn our respect. I am sure theyre big enough and ugly enough to cope with it today.

"Where were you when we were shit" epic and apt.

Was almost a different side in the first half, but that completely changed once we conceded. Need to start dominating matches from beginning to end, especially at home.

Oh ffs.

Why are people upset at the players? They didn't try as hard when Mou was there? How would anyone know. There is a sense of relief when something you feel was holding you back is gone now. The players are more free to play their game.

The managers job is to control the players and have them set up the way he wants. If he can't do that, it is his fault. Players aren't to blame. Only natural motivation suffers at time, especially with a personality as big as Mou's, and his actions taking up all of the media spotlight.

This kind of fans clearly shows the gullibility and idiocy that permeates the game.

[Diceflix 207]

Seems like everyone on the pitch are enjoying who they really are... a freedom to do their game...

TBH, I would not be surprised if the double ZZ part was deliberately done so the Mourinho cult make it clear they think he is a snake. Maybe I am reading too much into it but I would not be surprised if they have played on the wording of his name to elaborate their point.

Sad that they turn on Hazard just because it seems him and Mourinho were not seeing eye to eye. I am going to the Watford match next week and tbh I am quite embarrassed to be around fans that think it is alright to boo several of our players.

Especially important ones like Hazard who it is more important we keep than Mourinho. Fans will only appreciate what they had until its gone.

going through other videos as well and hardly surprising how many of them feel the same way.

love what this guy said

if pep comes in and the players think, "i dont want to play for him", will we sack him too?

and this has been the exact question i have been asking. what about the future. what precedent does this set? the players can literally stop caring about the clubs and the fans until they get what they want. does not matter who you are, not even messi should be allowed to have that attitude.

[Wizacar 93]

Stop blaming the players. Its mourinho. He stopped us playing with freedom and I will never forgive him for getting rid off. Luiz,mata,debruyne,schurrle,salah,lukaku.. all flair players that mourinho cudnt accept because they were creators and didnt believe in his anti football. I mean luiz was meant to be our next captain. He won us the champions league with terry suspended

Yeah exactly but Guardiola plays "attractive" football, so players won't be turning on him so soon based on style. But imagine Simeone to come in and plays bus parking football which he occasionally does, will the players start playing shit on purpose again because they don't like that style?

We cannot let the players run the club.

It is harsh to say the players raising the game is a sign of them having got Jose fired deliberately. Even players like Ivanvoic who Jose always sticked to played better than before. It is just something lifted from them that made them play more freely. Also the opponent was whack. I am sure we would have won this game under Jose, too.
