Hyper-critical fans

[Madmax 9,219]

In Hindi, we have a saying, 'Kuch to log kahenge, logo ka kaam hai kehna' which means 'People will always say something, it's their job to criticise you no matter what'. Best to ignore them.

Well said, couldn't sum it up any betters. Haters gonna hate.

stop the insults ...you have been warned before

Yeah sure mr.Mod.

Not more arguments about how much Ancelotti trusts Kalou?

I bloody hate the criticism Ramires is getting from our own fans. Seriously what the fuck? He's only 23, he is new to the English game, he was in Portugal last year and Brazil the year before that, he needs time to settle down, to get used to the English game. I think he has all the toolss to thrive at Chelsea. I think one of the reasons he is getting the criticism he gets is because his name is not Frank Lampard, a mikdfield trio of Essien, Ramires and Mikel will never be that naturally attack minded, thats not Ramires' fault, he didn't injure Lampard, its not his natural game to arrive late in the box to get on the end of things.

You dont become Brazil's main midfielder by some accident, ok granted his performances so far this season have hardly been vintage or anything but neither were Essien's or Drogba's when they first arrived in England, give him time, time is on his side afterall he is only 23 and he will come good.

Kalou appears to lack a brain and that seems to annoy people, I will admit to being one of the people who regularly rip shreds of my hair out when he runs with his head down into a gang of players and loses the ball. That being said Nani is equally as clueless and he does add something to Man Utd, their fans aren't all over him half as much as we are over Kalou, at the end of the day he is an unpredictable player and that can and has unsettled defences and he can pop up with a game changing moment at any time, all great sides need a player like that.

Kostas has proven his opinion should count for nothing.

A bit harsh. He makes some valid points in this thread

[Rubber bullets 1,183]

To be honest Ramires would have to score 3 goals against Man Utd while doing stepovers and flicks everytime he touched the ball - and then he MIGHT get less criticism from some people.

Ferreira is unfortunatly the new scapegoat, taking over Mikel from last year. He could stop Messi from having any influence if Barcelona played us and people would still COMPLAIN and nitpick his performance.

Are you serious?

He's been solid this year (when played as a right-back) but am the only one who remembers how Bale ripped him a new one last season?

Bale ripped Maicon apart, but people still consider him one of the best Right backs in the world

United's 20-year-old Rafael had Bale in his pocket in their last game, besides it wasn't just the game against Spurs, as far as I remember he was a (defensive) liability in most of the games he played. No wonder Ancelotti didn't even register him in our CL squad list last season (that's why Zhirkov played LB against Inter) .

What about Manchester United, Aston Villa, Bolton last season. Seems to have done pretty well as we won all of those games with him at right back and only concede 2 goals.

Can't remember the Bolton game but we were cruising against Aston Villa and the United goal (a blatant handball) came from his side when he should've stopped Nani's cross.

Look I'm not arguing his use but I don't see him as the concistent 7 out of 10 man anymore, age has taken a toll on his pace and he has often problems with quick wingers.

Haters gonna hate.

Funny how we were saying the same things a while ago.
