I've got to say, watching this AC Milan game, Mario Balotelli is the last striker I'd want to see in Chelsea blue. He's throwing his hands around, hardly running, such bad body language. It's dreadful, and he has such a short fuse, which is proven in the BPL.

First of all good win 2day nothing too fancy just a comfortable 3 points couldn't have asked for more, but really the main reason i'm posting is cause of the lack of respect for Mata the whole using him in a swap deal and every one just saying ship him off. Show some respect to someone that has served the club in great fashion over the past 2 seasons. Some of you on here make me sick acting like spoilt kids that always want the new toy in the store. I mean most people on here don't even post constructively or have a decent bater about the team or the games we play just on here asking Ed loads of random questions. Its sad how some of you see the game. I know Juan doesn't fit in to the team at the moment and might leave but some of you should really show support to players especially one like Mata I hope Mou. Keeps him and he slowly gets it the way jose wants cause to me he's'a great footballer, a good servant and the word out there a great person that deserves a little bot more. Feel free to have a go at me its all good but i'm just saying it how I feel it should be nothing personal.

100k+ aweek not sure he will worry to much
Will sign for a top team
Not going to get into the side we all no that
SO if the rumours are going rd that we could swap him for someone that will play and make us better don't think that's showing a sign of disrespect just a FACT

Agree0 Disagree0

Not a lack of respect not wanting to as
Such brilliant layer not play and maybe miss a World Cup. I'd love him to stay and wouldn't swap him for Rooney in a million years but the blokes to good
To be on bench not fair on him.

Agree0 Disagree0

What rubbish ELI! How bout trusting the manager in the team he picks! If he doesn't fancy mata then so be it we are 12pts better off than what we were at this point last season! Team comes first b4 any player am afraid

Agree0 Disagree0

Totally agree with you eli! Pinky probably have to watch few games before commenting! Oscar again was bad yesterday! Haven't done anything!

Why not play mata? At least against weaker teams give him a chance ffs

Just a thought on mata. I think ozil was never a work horse at madrid, seldom tracked back and when on ball used to be a magician like mata. But he was one of mou' s favourites at madrid. So why do you think his approach is different with mata? My thought is that, when he took over, mou clearly understood the deficiencies in our defence. We did not have a proper defensive midfielder who could shield our defence. He tried lamps, ramires, essien, mikel, and he probably realized Lamps and ramires where more interested in attacking. Essien isn't the bison anymore, mikel is prone to mistakes when pressed. Van ginkel' s injury worsened the situation. So to balance attack and defence mou wanted his " no.10 role" player to track back. Oscar adapted well, but mata on the other hand had to change his natural game and lost his ability to influence games that made him our best player for last 2 seasons. Now that we have signed matic, a physical def mid who is comfortable on the ball, and our defence looking more solid, hopefully mata will be relieved of his defensive duties so he can play his natural game and I think mou will start using mata more often in second half of the season. What do you lot think? Will the matic signing help mata? By the way, brilliant work eds, you guys are awesome, keep up the good work.

Silv3rzz ;)

Id love us to sell him at the end of the season and replace him with Barkley. Barkley can cover CAM and CM for our team. He has the size, physical attributes and all round game that Mourinho loves. :)
