I think Mourinho is a little overrated. He has one of the more expensive players of the world (lot of them requested by himself) and three years later Real Madrid doesn't play anything. I still dont understand today Madrid gameplan.

Then He talks after the game: He has blamed the referee, The Calendar favoring Barcelona, the Madrid president and directive, and his players... He always blame everyone after a loose, he never says anyhing about gameplay.


mourinho gameplan is to win, simple as that

hes already won cup and championship beating the arguably best team ever created


I dont think that "Cuentrao" making long passes to the enemy area while Kaka and Modrid watch like yesterday is "play to win".

Team: Cech (c); Azpili, Ivan, D Luiz, Cole; Ram, Mik; Mata, Oscar, Hazard; Torres.

vs

Team: Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany (C), Nastasic, Kolarov, Yaya Toure, Barry, Silva, Milner, Dzeko, Aguero

Should be interesting.

Just heard this from Tyler on Sky Sports; Mano Menezes (manager of Brazil) was sacked during the week.
http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/1237782/brazil-sack-coach-mano-menezes-

Not surprised considering they choked in the Olympics again.

Chelsea defending alot better, i guess thats a plus sign :D

Offensively we are looking a bit short though, oh well! Can only improve in that sense.

By the way, Oscar is so good no?

So Guardiola manager of Brazil? What better way to take some time off as Club manager and possibly winning himself a world cup.

^Pandemona, defensively there was still a glorious chance for Aguero which he should have buried. It could have been worse though.

Except it's not really a step down in pressure, managing Brazil is a vicious job, probably just as much as Barcelona.
Yeah, well, you know, that's just like, your opinion man

It's a high pressure job for a couple of weeks a year and of course you have an entire nation of critics, but I do not believe it's even comparable to the pressure most managers face at club level. Also no mourinho.

The pressure will be insane during the world cup, but that is still some time off.

Looks like none of these guys have had any sleep. Terrible passing and ball control all around the pitch.

I'll take that, a nice 0-0, clean sheet vs City. Good start Rafa, now good luck vs Fulham and West Ham. Need to win those games for him to start the way he wants.

You seem to have accepted Rafa quite quickly

Do you not find what Abramvich is doing cancerous to the team? Or did I miss this discussion a few days ago?

You missed it.

I don't have a problem with the way Abramovich works, i know it's very very sad the way things have happened but if you look at results and how he has saved us from EXTINCTION (pompey/rangers style) i can't just jump on his back for that.

Rafa is a good manager, i like how he organises teams, things went wrong at inter, but he won 2 trophies in 3 months. Not that wrong for me, he won 12 out of 25 games not that bad considering Inter still were shit for 2 seasons after he left. They have only just got back to some sort of form.

Chelsea were playing so bad under DiMatteo defensively, that is HIS fault no one elses, he failed to address that situation and that is the reason we have lost/drawn games, plain and simple.
He also is pretty bad tactically, and his subs were non existent.

I hope Rafa is just a stop gap anyway, and if he isn't and we go on to win the league and do well in the cups, then I'll support him. He said in his press conference that the shit he said at Liverpool was basically either misunderstood or mind games because he was playing against a big rival/good team when they played vs us.

It is still only reports that Abramovich was demanding to play Torres etcetc, look at the Mourinho situation. He left because "supposidly" he was being forced to play Sheva. Look what happend that summer, Sheva left. Maybe the same will happen with Torres this summer who knows.

The only bad thing he has done imo, is not give Lamps and Ashley new contracts, they are still awesome players for us, and today you saw Ashley is the best left back for England and in the Prem still. Be a FUCKING sad summer when those two leave

lol, this just shows you cant believe what anyone says in this world, pretty sure chelsea fans were pissed and liverpool fans were happy back when he said these things

Disgrace, just shows football players have no passion, commitment, anything. They are just mercenaries.
