Sturridge's pace and a Super Saiyan Sterling could change that slightly, but I agree with the general sentiment.

We're fairly different now to the side you played at Christmas.

It's what makes the game that much more exciting. I have no clue how it's going to go down on Sunday.

 

[Mr Cola]

BBC Sport confirming what we suggested that Giggs is not in contention long term

 

[Broder Salsa]

Playing like this is fine if it is your only option.

But to have spent the amount Chelsea have spent and to still play like this is pretty shocking.

I'm sure mourinho and everyone else associated with Chelsea feels great sorrow and sends their apologies to you, for not living up to your football morals.

results matter for fans/clubs/managers. i am neither, im a football netural who wants to watch good football. mourinho is the anti chirst. his tactical prowess is very overrated

haha. Who do you support m8? Stick around.

 

[dalVlatko]

mourinho is the most overrated coach of all time, given all the resources he has and the amount of money he spends all he does in big games is camp 11 players in his own pen box. so boring, there is more to football than getting results.

[Lightning]

It's not the only way. But for Chelsea it very much of the way. .

I've got no problem with how Chelsea win. Bayern are worse imo, their pointless passing is the most boring shit ever but while it works they will keep doing it so an early Madrid goal is required.

Atletti need a goal to open this game up more.

Also I expect Atleti to park the bus at Stamford Bridge so all fair game imo.

 

[Anderson]

Liverpool should be fun to watch in the CL next year, Rogers and Suarez on the big stage

 

[Sane_Man]

This ref is a proper soft shite.

Hes the Chelsea manager. Roman doesnt give out his oil blood money for fun he does it to win, you saw how happy he was when he held the Champions League trophy in Munich a couple of years ago, that feel of victory... is all that matters.

Yeah, such as Mourinho could have easily purchased a striker this summer instead of the players he purchased, or even played Lukaka.

Lukaku bottled it after he pissed up the Super Cup, Jose knew he wasnt ready after that and he kicked off asking to leave. I dont think Lukaku was reasonably an option.

How is it overrated if it delivers results?

 

[Jarnet87]

Has there ever been a more nailed on transfer without any verified sources than Costa to Chelsea?

Fabregas to Barcelona. As soon as Moyes got the job at United everybody said Fellaini was a shoe in. those are just a few off the top of my head that equally as telegraphed.

 

[Feorax]

I'm kind of hoping we end up in a group of death tbh. I'm not expecting a big campaign first year back, but I'm really interested to see how we fare against the big guns in Europe.

 

[Sane_Man]

Fabregas to Barcelona. As soon as Moyes got the job at United everybody said Fellaini was a shoe in. those are just a few off the top of my head that equally as telegraphed.

Reus to Liverpool.

 

[Zabojnik]

Well, I know I'm putting 100 EUR on Liverpool making it to the final next year. Just like I put 100 EUR on Benfica winning EL this season. Sometimes you just know.

 

[Splatt]

The cunt is dead why

 

[Scully Scully Scoo]

haha. Who do you support m8? Stick around.

i support football.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQBriYdeNJ0

i actually like mourinho personality and if i was a manager i would be like him in regards to attitude towards a game. i wouldnt care how boring my team is to watch as long as they get the result HOWEVER i am not a manager and have 0 affiliation with any club so i dont care about the result i just want to be entertained.

also what annoys me are mourinho/cristiano fans, they are truly the worst

 

[wedward]

I'm sure mourinho and everyone else associated with Chelsea feels great sorrow and sends their apologies to you, for not living up to your football morals.

You know you can admit that your team plays shit football. It's ok. Mourinho isn't going to slap you through the tv.

 

[dark_prinny]

What a joke.

 

[Arnie]

Reus to Liverpool.

I just hope we throw whatever we have to at Simeone to get Koke.

 

[Fergie]

It's a good sign when its boring.

 

[FootballFan]

Suarez already been.

 

[Zabojnik]

I just hope we throw whatever we have to at Simeone to get Koke.

Koke is a one season semi-wonder, just like Benteke.

 

[Meier]

You'd swear it was the 88th minute the way the Atletico fans are complaining about time wasting.

 

[kmax]

Thank God it's Real - Bayern toworrow so we don't have to witness this shit.

It's like they're trying to put their opponents to sleep.

 

[Scully Scully Scoo]

How is it overrated if it delivers results?

the manner in which he delivers results. his clubs have 0 style, he spends loads of money just to have those expensive skillfull players park the bus in big games and leaves a trail of chaos after he leaves the club. short-term manager, quick fixes, doesnt deserve the praise he gets.

 

[Nero3000]

What pot will Liverpool be in?

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

Mourihnio killing the sting of the game as he does best.

 

[José Mourinho]

"....more to football than getting results"


Are you Moyes agent?

Now that's a quote.

 

[Sane_Man]

I just hope we throw whatever we have to at Simeone to get Koke.

I'd bite my own dick off for that, but in reality we're almost certain to get priced out for players like him and Reus. Sad. Still believe in Rodgers to sign some more gems though.

 

[Arnie]

What pot will Liverpool be in?

3.

High chance we get a mad group.

Be fun either way. It always is with Liverpool.

 

[Feorax]

What pot will Liverpool be in?

Pot 3 barring a miracle.

 

[Splatt]

There's no better year to rebuild than the World Cup year.

 

[The Atticus]

You'd swear it was the 88th minute the way the Atletico fans are complaining about time wasting.

Well, if you were an Atletico fan you'd swear it was the 88th minute by the way the Chelsea players are time wasting.

 

[Sviatoslav]

I hope someone asks Mourinho post-game what century today's football was from.

 

[Empty]

something almost happened. almost.

 

[FootballFan]

That's his 5th

 

[Scum]

So that's Chelsea in the final then.

We are going to win this. Jesus Gil told me that last night in a dream.

This game is nothing but background noise as I browse other threads. What a disgrace for a CL semi, it's Greek league shit.

This does not disprove a single thing he said.

I enjoy this, and especially the butthurt comments from other supporter groups.

 

[kmax]

Mou's gambling. He wants 0-0 here and want to win it over at the bridge, but Atletico is going to have the goal advantage if they score over there, which they will if Chelsea bothers to attack then.

 

[Lambda Pie]

i doozed off watching this match. is it Thursday yet?

Yurt, Zabo, pls. our match will be 50 times better than this.
