Following Our Nearest and Dearest Rivals, 2014-15
That's a top4 stat, not just #1 place :) So I went a bit WTF thinking how come we had 2 days out of top4 this season before realizing it must be because we started the season 2 days later than other clubs.

José Mourinho Confirmed as Chelsea Manager!
Obviously, and it seems to be written by an English-speaking person.

Are our rivals about to catch or overtake us?
Same here. I so want Loserpool to do a good thing once in a lifetime and take points on the weekend, but I feel ashamed saying that...

Torres - The "Groundhog Day" Thread
I still wonder how we managed to dump Torres on them. That was a miracle I never believed would happen untill I saw the official confirmation. Whoever is responsible for this deal has my eternal gratitude!

How to pronounce Eden Hazard?
Eh-denn Ah-zar with "typical French R" on the end? For Mourinho's name - the closest to Portuguese J would be probably how you pronounce "s" in "measure", and also the final e is short with emphasis on it, not Jo-zay how British commentators pronounce it. And certainly not the Spanish way (though Spaniards will say Ho-se anyway or at best get some weird mix between J and H if they really try but that's because there is no sound like Portuguese J in Spanish language).

Lamps for a coaching role? Why not?
I think the most realistic scenario is he stays one more year as a squad player accepting he's not in the starting XI any more. That would give him time to look at coaching options, maybe get some advice from Jose, figure out if he likes it or not and then in summer 2015 he'll either retire for good or take up coaching. Though MLS is always an option.

Eden Hazard - Chelsea Legend
It was said referring to the first part, that lost in translation "posession football". "I have to do it all alone" was another thing and was wrong at many levels, and the manager had to react if even for the sake of other 22 players on the team. I'd trust nothing was lost in translation as Mourinho knows French.

Eden Hazard - Chelsea Legend
Yes, clearly it has nothing to do with Hazard's comments slating the manager and teammates plastered all over the media for 3 days running. And if the player is the only one between the attacker and the goal he shouldn't have to clear the ball because attacking players should have freedom from defensive duties, right?

Does this guy have any sort of credibility? His last tweets are scary. https://twitter.com/fizzyjacko

Mourinho fooled us all :p
I think Schwarzer will play. Maybe - just maybe - Cech will be on the bench for the rather unlikely situation if during the game something happens to Schwarzer. Though I'm not sure if not fully fit Cech is safer bet than fully fit Hilario.

Your opinions on Chelsea's youtube channel?
Totally agree. Almost every club has videos from trainings, team travels, some interesting features etc. ChelseaTV and Chealsea youtube channel are so frustrating in this regard :(

José Mourinho Confirmed as Chelsea Manager!
Could have pulled it off (misunderstood etc) but there is another one from him: There is just something capitally wrong with people who use the tragic death of a man to create an agenda. Really, journalists often ivent/exaggerate things, but there are things that can't be done because they can't be done, period.

One of Spanish journalists went even farther, writing this: Translation - "How unfair is the life... Both are coaches, but Tito dies and Mou lives"
