RIP Mourinho 5,219 Posted September 18, 2017 A lot of people mention his work rate but this seems to be what the Palace fans are praising him most on, never stops running. 2 ashwin and Qaz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I always thought the opinion about him being lazy was overblown by our fans anyway. I never thought he was lazy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very true, Mourinho said it once so the majority of our fans jumped on that and took it as gospel truth from then onwards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Respect works both ways though, if he respected Chelsea fans i'm sure a lot of people views would be different more recently. Fact still stands above though, he said something about RLC and all the Mourinho arse licker nodded and agreed like little minions. 1 ashwin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fendieta 62 Posted September 19, 2017 On 9/18/2017 at 10:15, RIP Mourinho said: Been shot down so many times on this forum for saying RLC is the biggest talent to have come from our academy recently. Still strongly believe with a run of games he'd thrive in a midfield 3 here at Chelsea. He drives forward a lot with the ball which I like. He is a tall, strong lad and I think a midfield of him, Baka and Kante would be a powerful centre midfield. His game does need refining, but being his first top flight season I think he is doing well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well you claiming to somehow know what "the majority" are thinking, it's an impressive talent if you can. But it's more likely you know nothing of why anyone would think he's lazy and as usual you're just writing nonsense. 1 yorkleyblue reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's always been his biggest problem, he stands still of the ball far much, but he does seem to have improved it from the bits I've seen of his performances this season.

brownindian 485 Posted September 19, 2017 Seems like a lot of revisionist history out here. I am part of the people who was on the RLC is lazy boat so this is my take: When RLC played for us - he lost the ball often. Not a problem, the problem came after when he did not track the ball back and was waiting for someone else to clear his mess and started to track back after a lost few seconds. Reasons why I felt he was 'lazy'. From what I am hearing, it seems he has improved and is not doing that anymore. Well that is good and that is why they like him and the loan move gives him the opportunity to play day and day out and improve significantly. I think the loan move was a great idea and i am happy for everyone involved. Listen people - when we are in the hunt for multiple trophies, it is important to have finished/ nearly finished product, not just raw talent. And RLC when he played for us had that raw talent. Now he has the opportunity to become a better product. 3 Nibs, Argo and Qaz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dan_cfc 1,121 Posted September 19, 2017 From what I've seen he's been palace best player by far so far this season. Not saying much I know cos they're sh*te but has given me some hope that he may still have a future here if he keeps improving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although having said that he has pleasently surprised me so far at Palace and if he keeps it up i will have to reaccess my assessment on hiim. 3 ashwin, Qaz and bisright1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The majority of people who hold that view only started thinking it after Mou said it.

Cyborg7 119 Posted September 20, 2017 I don't understand why some people said he was lazy or its game without ball is poor , I watched all her games and already say that he is lazy is wrong. It's the best player of Palace since start of the season. He works good on the pitch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yorkleyblue 6,512 Posted September 20, 2017 There you go, Dicky - posts almost obsessively anti-Mourinho rubbish, and then, when called out on it, claims "I have better things to do with my day". Yep, that'll be trawling the internet for bad things about some of our players and previous manager. I thought the schools had started back already. 1 dkw reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I posted one video of Cahill having a mare and some of you have had an absolute meltdown pmsl. As for the anti-Mourinho rubbish, that'll continue until he treats Chelsea with respect and gratitude for everything we did for him. University doesn't actually start back until October, i'm just surprised they let you have Wifi in the retirement home. 1 Chigzzer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robdog 6,911 Posted September 23, 2017 RLC started today - I saw him provide a through ball to Benteke, but that donkey messed up the chance w/ his first touch - can't wait to get RLC back to Chelsea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
