Just about everyone on here seems to be giving Jose a pass for us not winning the inleague when in retrospect we lost it by not being able to beat bottom of the table teams. We seem to have one strategy week-in and week-out and no plan B. Although we took more points from top teams than in recent years I don't see how the problem with teams that sit back will change with Jose's preferred style of play. Most feel a more clinical striker will fix the problem but we didn't create half the chances for strikers that we created last season when we had more creative play so I'm not sure how much impact a world class striker can make without service. Also with Jose's personality and his penchant for rubbing players the wrong wayi really worry about what our team will look like next season with the Lukaku, Hazard and even Oscar situation. I don't get the impression the players are enjoying their football like the end of last year and it seems like there is more tension between players and the manager.

Saw Ashley cole, frank, jt and petr having there photo taken on the pitch after match. Clearly last season together. A big thank you to all four for great service to cfc. Without these four we would not have won what we did over the last ten years
End of an era

Ed002 what are the situations with Terry, Lampard, cole? A week left in the season?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed002's Note - I don't understand the question. If you are talking about transfers I previously answered. If you are talking about fitness I can't help. If you want a date, I might be able to get one of them to help you out.}

In regards to new contracts?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Nothing has changed.}

Frank is 36, Luiz isn't real CM, Chelsea can't relie only on Matic. Ba&Torres got 0 useful passes and crosses, Schurrle unlucky, Willian obviously tiered. All together very sad.

I though luiz played well. Matic had his worst game so far, lost the ball so many times. Willian just has no creativity, hard working but 30m? Needs to be doing so much more. Ba was awful. A striker and modric-like player needed.

Agree0 Disagree0

We all know Modrić isn't going to happen.

Agree0 Disagree0

That's why I said modric-like

R Barkley

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed018's Note - You've been talking about Barkley for some time now. He would be the perfect replacement for Lampard}

Agree PB, he would be amazing

Agree0 Disagree0

Lack of homegrown players means Barkley and Shaw are must. Hillario and Schwartzer will be of ar well as Ba and Eto'o. Maybe even Cech. Chelsea will probably sign Darlow.

Agree0 Disagree0

Exactly what we need next to Matic, has pace, technical ability, long range shooting which we are terrible at and the physical attributes plus he is HG which is something the club is looking to address.
Everton didn't get Champions League, makes to much sense :)

ED018 is Lukaku being part of a deal for him the only way Everton may even consider selling? Guessing he is going to cost Luke Shaw money £30m upwards.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed018's Note - I know Ed02 mentioned Chelsea would ask for Barkley if Everton wanted to make a move for Lukaku}

Totally agree about Barclay. If we can give them lukaku plus cash its got to be a good deal. This kid plus shaw are musts for us. They will give us back part of the English spine and are guaranteed stars of the future. These two plus couple strikers things will look good in the garden again.
Just hope we do early business, fed up with us being last minute signers

Agree0 Disagree0

Shaw&Barkley are must even if Chelsea has to sell Hazard.Shaw should play winger given his skills. Chelsea can afford another LB Felipe or Moreno by the way Bertrand is still Chelsea player. If Mikel leaves to Inter Milan Luiz will take his place. CMs Matic, Barkley, Oscar, Luiz, Ramires and MVG. Wingers Shaw, Salah, Willian and Schurrle. CFs D.Costa, Lukaku-homegrown and player-coach Drogba.

Agree0 Disagree0

I wonder whether our interest in Daehli has any merit. Whilst Ed002 said he had no knowledge of it, Daehli is considered HG.

Agree0 Disagree0

I'd want better wingers than shaw, salah, schurrle and Willian nkch. Hazard must stay

I'm sick to my stomach, the team is driving me MAD!

Agree0 Disagree0

Why it was a typical performance from a team that knows the league has gone against a team who are fighting for premiership serviceable. We worked hard some more than others. let's just see what next season brings.
Lastly all pray city win the league

Agree0 Disagree0

At least we are guaranteed third place now, which to be honest is what we deserve, and on reflection not bad for a team in transition. Jose has said all along that next year will give us a better chance of winning the league. Third place and semi final of champions league in first year in charge, give the man and team some credit.
