Bigger question is what was Brendan Rogers doing at the game? Also who win the race for the top? Man City of Leicester?!

Nothing controversial but most thing he said were wrong, being in defense doesn't mean that team that attacks but has 0 chance of scoring beacuse they have no idea how to break the defence is better. Also saying stuff like if Hazard scored it would be 1:1 and Chealsea would have advantege is dumb because if City scored their chances it would be 6:0. So overall it's pretty typical Mourinho nonsense people are used to already. It's nothing compared to the preschool level of replying to Benitez wife to care about her husband diet.

But every time Chelsea wins you have a chorus of voices going on about how Chelsea was the worse team. Lucky to win 4:0, anti-football ect. Obliviously its possible to say you can play one half better than the opponent and lose because you slip up twice in 45min.

Personally I think our team has problems that are going to get sorted out and it will turn out fine in the end

No one has every accused Chelsea of playing anti football when they win 4-0 or play good footy. Thats just your defensive complex kicking in.

And you have seen what happens to JT when he has to leave his 6 yard box..

In other news Rahman to Chelsea has been confirmed, also there were a lot of rumours about Otamendi to City and Kovacic to Real recently.

Kovatic to Real is "done" according to Sky Sports. £22million deal or something agreed

I think its crazy that Manu's Defence is the shining star of the start of the season and its offence+ midfield is whats suspect. I have no idea why they don't just get the buyout clause of pedro and get into the bid war for stones. I can understand paying 30m for a 29 year old might give you pause but stones is the thing all the pretty ladies of the epl want.

the defense is a vastly different thing than your back 4. You can make any team really good at defending, the problem is that most of the time it hampers too much your offense. The hardest thing is to find a good equilibrium between both leading to score more goals than the opponent most of the matchs.
Zest fanboy.

Well since Turkey has apparently blocked Imgur, are there other countries this applies to? It will be used quite extensively especially in the new CL thread so it might be worth looking for an alternative.
An example here would be puush.me, Pande will have to embed something because I can't right now.

Nana its cool, I'll be in the UK for uni most of my time anyway and I'm sure Mensol (rip) can find some proxies if he's still around.

Its common knowledge that the editorial staff of the BBC's sports section is heavily biased. But I guess name calling and straw-manning is easier than thinking for some people.

The quote in full;

"If somebody has the free mind and the right to have these kinds of decisions as a manager, I am the one because I am the one who gave him the chance to be what he is; a fantastic player and fantastic captain


Yet BBC turn it into huge click bait by showing a bit of the sentence xD
