Mourinho is doing one of the things he does best after a bad team display by doing or saying something that deflects talk away I will say though, at least he had the presence of mind to not blame the result on our lack of mid-week matches. That's kind of his fault too.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Says a lot, considering it took us some games to actually change things and getting adapted to it. Keep going and growing! you can say this for every club in the top 5.

But this is hilarious. Conte asking/demanding the crowd to make noise has absolutely nothing to do with Mourinho. Chelsea produced something special and it deserved great praise so Conte was right. Typical of Mourinho to make it about him. One of the reasons I never warmed to Mourinho. Him winning titles with Chelsea doesn't change that. Maybe those who loved and worshipped him so much can now understand how a Chelsea fan couldn't love Mourinho. I am a Chelsea fan and I understand no such thing. I also do not understand why the anti Jose brigade is so grotesquely over represented on this forum. Jose is, and will remain, a Chelsea legend. If that irks anyone, then they deserve to be irked.

bluephoenix 1,131 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Quote Not even sure about Pogba in his current form. Matic looks back to his best now and was faultless again today. He and Kante are a great partner http://www.redcafe.net/threads/post-match-vs-chelsea.422847/page-10#post-19957297 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolhead23 1,147 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Great game ... Was skeptical of the 3 in the back against United but was proved wrong. After every game, the highlights/talking points/blame/credit would mainly be around the likes of Costa, Hazard, Terry/Cahill, Courtois, Matic but in this formation we cannot forget the contribution from the likes of Moses, Azpi, Kante, Pedro ... I believe this is a formation which demands the team to move into offensive mode and defensive mode in sync ... which is what has been the highlight yesterday (and more importantly we are building towards that synchronization) , every man knew his job and executed it to perfection. More happy to see that we beat ... sorry demolish the team which for me was destined to win the title. Still jumping in joy!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinAshburner 1,270 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Imagine we do this to Man Utd at Old Trafford on Saturday 15 April 2017. https://www.premierleague.com/match/14362 same Lineup and same formation and destroy and humiliate them at the ground. I WON'T BE SHOCKED IF BY THEN JOSE MOURINHO IS SACKED BY MAN UTD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parky 739 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Massive win! A great overall performance and I think everyone in our team had a great game. One thing I observed is how much confidence Conte has instilled in all our players after last season's slump. Everyone is looking motivated, hungry and focused in contrast to Jose's deflated Man Utd. There are still some things we can improve on I feel but if we back Conte in the transfer market then we sure can become one of Europe's most feared teams.

Special Juan 28,141 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Jose in shock deflection tactic after another team and manager rinse him out and embarrass him. Finest of the fine performances from us, from start to finish and we never looked out of control here. The formation/system looks and suits us so well. The balance Alonso gives and the way Moses is playing is so easy on the eye. Fabulous weekend after all the other results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmin 2,484 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Unfortunately for him, Mourinho's antics don't work anymore. And they won't ever work again. Chit chat can only deflect attention from your flaws for so long. The man has only won two relevant trophies since 2010: Primera and Premier League. There are a lot of other managers who did better than him during this period, even if he only managed great clubs. Also, he was fired under bad terms by both Real Madrid and Chelsea. Now United are worse under him than they were under Van Gaal or Moyes. He lives in the past, he's old news. I will always respect what he did here, but let's be honest, his PR machine did him more good than his results since 2010. I don't even care what he says or does anymore. He's not relevant. I'd rather listen to Klopp, Poch or even Wenger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either he genuinely believes that and is deluded OR he thinks everyone is an idiot and can't see what's happening on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said that they had the chance to make it 2-1, but we scored the third on a counterattack and then they had the chance to make it 3-1, but again we scored on a counterattack. Afterwards, he even went to say that "probably, if there were 10 more minutes, we would've had the chance to make it 4-1, but they would've scored the fifth on a counterattack". I watched his statement, so yeah, he did say that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
