the Clare Balding show tonight BBC2 10:00pm has the Mourinho interview.

I suspect that for about 60% of the forum, that's going to be absolutely heartbreaking :(

So why do you bunch of pussies have a connection with Terry, Lampard, and Drogba, all of which were involved in the sackings of Scolari and AVB?

 

Is it because they weren't your boyfriends? Different standards depending on how close the 2005 players were signed?

Oh, Scolari got sacked less than half a season after winning the double?  AVB won 3 BPL titles and smashed a record each time with CFC?

 

 

Ya, I guess the standards are different for managers who are our most successful ever and just tasted great success versus managers who acheived nothing.  I suppose that difference also translates to players who have won everything under the sun with this club and have a firm bond with the fans versus players who've (comparatively)  barely tasted success with the club and some of which have been here not much longer than a season....and sold out the manager who brought huge success to them and the club.

 

Jose already beat you to it, it was done by Jan 2015.

This is bullsh*t.  If I could deliver drywall for an average of 12 hours a day for a year and a half and "not be run into the ground" then how the f**k can a footballer cry about their work load being too much?  Never mind I didnt make in that year in a half what they did in a week,  This is bullsh*t and shows nothing more than the lack of mental toughness from some of these players.  Boo hoo, I have to train a few hours a day and its all diddums.

 

You never hear it from serial winners.  You never hear it from players grateful to make a living playing the game.  I can't recall ever hearing a player with genuine affection for any club citing this BS while playing for them.

 

 You hear it from whiners who need an excuse for why they shouldn't have to try their hardest every time.  You certainly don't hear it from "our boyfriends" mentioned above, all of whom have put in more of those "grueling" seasons and often staying on the pitch and influencing the game while carrying injuries. 

the Clare Balding show tonight BBC2 10:00pm has the Mourinho interview.

 

saw a bit of the interview where the title of the video was "mourinho explains his love for chelsea" or something similar, where claire balding asks him which club means the most to him. he goes on to say because he spent more time at chelsea he has a deeper love, however he also mentions inter milan too, then porto and real madrid to a lesser extent but still all important. I am always dubious of the claims he made mentioning love for chelsea and that bit of the interview kind of confirmed that he doesn't have a particular "love" for any club he's managed. 

just found the interview anyway, so enjoy! the question i mentioned above is at the beginning

interesting...I've not seen it yet but will watch it with your interpretation in mind

Thanks Jose, you've been let down badly by the footballers.

We'll be sure to let them know about it tomorrow.

All the best, and I wish you all the success in future.

For now it's all speculation but it's weird and rare to hear Nevin points the finger at one individual, there's probably something there and it's not hard to believe. Fabregas is not and never will be Chelsea, he has been an absolute disgrace on the pitch alone, without adding anything else. Easily the worst player on the pitch in 90% of the games he played. I still remember him coming on for 15 minutes against Newcastle away, carelessly giving the ball away 4-5 times and walking back to stop the counter. If I need to bet he's poisoning the dressing room the same way he does on the pitch. He's a liability anyway that should never have a starting place in a top club with ambition to win everything, he was at one, they threw him out. He belongs at Arsenal with the rest of the mentally weak bottlers.

 

With Hazard it's different but can you really go from consistently one of the best performers in the team to the unproductive disaster he has been this season? 2 assists in 30 games or something? Not buying that which is a shame because I liked the player but he showed his true personality, he's not going to be the great he could have been, he has the talent to do it but lacks the killer instinct. He doesn't have it in him.

 

Get rid of this group of backstabbing pieces of sh*t, unfortunately we have too many of them now to actually do it, from the players to the staff to the board.

He doesn't even point the finger, read the article, he even asks the person asking him "wasn't it?". It's speculation on his part from what he's read or heard, we have no idea if anyone even said it also. It's a non story if you ask me and tbh I am very doubtful anyone said it.

If any things clear I think it's that some of the players have not done enough on the pitch and have been downright disgraceful at times.

f**king traitors in the dressing room.

I couldn't bring myself to support Jose anymore if this rumor is true

Did you just compare being a professional footballer with delivering drywall? Not trying to be rude, but its pretty clear you never played sports at a higher level.

whoever didn't show up for his farewell this morning where the judases. Lots of rumors but do we know who ?

Nevin replied: ‘Yeah, that was Cesc Fabregas, wasn’t it? He added: ‘I thought it came out it was Cesc Fabregas. If it was, he’d been one of the strongest and it just shows in his game.

 

I find it hard to believe that a person as intelligent as Nevin would publicly accuse one individual for no reason, knowing the damage he can cause with his comments. Not even talking about the "rather lose than win" quote, because that can be fabricated, more about the overall attitude of players that led to this happening.

It's in the line he even says 'if it was', Fabregas seems to be an easy target for a lot of fans because he played for Arsenal & Barca.

He doesn't even accuse him though read the f**king line seriously.

He mentions one name, that's what seems weird to me. And I can't talk for anyone else but for me the way he plays for Chelsea is the easiest target, I don't even care that he has been terrible in almost every game this year, the majority of the team were rarely playing to their potential, it's the disgraceful, careless attitude that bothered me.

He's saying it like he's not sue himself like he read it in the papers or saw it on TV.

I think it's fine to talk about his disgraceful performances on the pitch but I think it's unfair to label him a rat and accuse him of saying something we don't even know was said, he's also backed Jose publically more than once,

no way Pat Nevin mentioned Fabregas like that by accident. He's telling us what went on. As if Fabregas's performances on the pitch weren't enough evidence.

He was asked about it and he says 'it was Fabregas wasn't it?' Like he doesn't know for sure himself.

Bobby you are wasting your time.

Folk will have the pitchforks out for Fabregas regardless of speculation. They have no interest in reading the actual facts

Exactly. it's like a hidden message, imagine the media storm if he said 'Yeah it's Fabregas.' IMO Pat Nevin has slipped, and tried to cover up mistake.

Actually my disdain for Fabregas has nothing to do with him being the dressing room rat (or not). It's to do with him being a lazy, unprofessional coward on the pitch, who treats his teammates and the fans with contempt.

Well you must really hate Hazard, Costa, Matic and a few others as they have been the exact same.

If you think this is all about one player being a rat or whatever you are mental, the dressing room was against Jose and that's never down to 1 player.

I hope all the players you mention are drummed out of the club, together with a few more. However, Fabregas has been the worst of a bad bunch.
