Still Champions of Europe [2013-14]

[derok]

isn't it too early to talk about transfers?
with 2 games left on the premier league Chelsea still can be champions.
Chelsea go and get it!!! I love uuu!!!

Liverpool ain't dropping points, man.

Liverpool ain't dropping points, man.

You never know. That's why we should keep fighting until the end.
How many surprises has history gave us.

 

[chygry]

City are in the pole position to win it. If they win all their remaining games it's theirs. They have a better goal difference than Liverpool, and Chelsea have to rely on others dropping points. Will be interesting nevertheless.

 

[Sepak]

I didn't know Manchester City still had chances to win, cool. I really don't want Liverpool to win.

 

[chygry]

Yeah they do, i hope they won't. : ( What do you have against Liverpool? Here's the table for you right now.

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Much rather Liverpool than City.

this debate was released after the 1-3 with atletico madrid.
I'm not posting this video to criticize Mourinho, but to try to understand how the next seasons will develop for Chelsea.

If one analyzes Mourinho management over the seasons in different teams one could say is all the same, right?
In Porto, defensive strategy. One could say that was an ok thing to do because Porto is not a big team like Chelsea and doesn't have the millions to spend a lot.
Then he arrives at Chelsea, and he creates a successful defensive team. He did had a lot of money this time, but he stayed defensive.
Then it came the Inter era and the same thing happened with lots of money.
Then he went to Madrid, and some changes were made because to play in defensive style in La Liga and to win it would have been to difficult for Real Madrid.
Now we are in his second era at Chelsea and we see a defensive team with good counter attacking football.

So, if our manager thinks that this style is the best for Chelsea and is the one where he feels most comfortable at, then I SUPPORT HIM ALL THE WAY!!!!
LETS DO THIS BABY!!!!!!!!!

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

I am yet to have explained to me what exactly is wrong with playing defensive football.

 

[chygry]

Yeah as the last years have shown, possession football has been destroyed by defensive pressing/counter-attacking football. It all depends on the manager though, and how he adapts to the opponents' tactics. Simeone who is the perfect example of this, even outclassed Mourinho with a squad of lesser players (it's a harsh thing to say to be honest). I'd honestly like to see another manager do the same that El Cholo has done with Atleti.

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Yeah, I dont mind what he is doing. I personally find "possession football" far more dull to watch than defensive, counter attacking football. I LIKE solid defensive play, it is highly watchable for me, and exciting.

 

[chygry]

Do you remember the Chelsea vs. Bayern Supercup final last summer? Although it didn't mean much it was one of the stand-out games of the season for me. That drama in the extra time etc.. : D

agree

 

[Sepak]

What do you have against Liverpool?

I really really hate Suarez and dislike Gerrard. I hate that man so much that if he ever arrives to Chelsea, I would no longer be a fan.

 

[chygry]

Haha.. I don't have anything against either of them. I like Suarez and other players like him, not because of his antics, but because of his passion for the game. Same with Diego Costa. They might seem like idiots on the pitch at times, but it describes their passion. There aren't many players like that.

And which one do you hate that much? The latter? You aren't a real supporter then if you'd stop being a fan because of one player. :P

 

[Sepak]

I meant Suarez. I wouldn't be able to celebrate. Fuck him.
But that would not mean that I would change of team, I would wait like 10 years after he leaves to trust in Chelsea again.

 

[chygry]

The guy has picked himself up during this season, he still might be a bit of a ****, but who cares as long as he's delivering for your team.

 

[Mus]

I like Suarez but hate Gerrard and liverpool

 

[N-Razvan]

I find it odd that a lot of people are bashing Mourinho for not getting any trophies this season, disregarding that last year's Chelsea couldn't even get out of the UCL group stage and finished with 14 points less than the first place in the EPL. He was close to getting the title and reached UCL's semifinals with almost the same squad, and with no World Class strikers, in his first year.

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Agree 100%. A trophy would have been nice and I did get my hopes up, but come on, semi finals of the CL and within 5 points of the title is really not bad at all for his first season in charge of a team in transition. The press and public seem unwilling to praise anyone but Liverpool and Rodgers - Mourinho, Wenger, United, Tottenham all taking massive flack and so was Pellegrini until City took the driving seat in the league.
