The Razorbacks have decided to let go of our under-performing manager, mr Mourinho no-good . The 2014 FA cup winner are no where to be found in the top 20 of any league, currently 26th in the FA cup and 253 in the league shocked shocked .. With the next game against the current number 1 in the league cup, we feel it's about time we let go of this sham of a manager.
Hahahaha. Ozil done kill this nigga.

He was leading with 2 points with 3 players left. . . I only had Ozil.

I finish 5 points ahead. . . thanks to Ozil!

Seriously I don't know what's só difficult in Lai Mohammed's statement to understand. The man was asked how the fuel scarcity came about. Simply that the oil marketers went on strike for their Subsidy arreas since August 2014. Who doesnt know that the outstanding Subsidy payments caused the strike?
You dey mind these Nigerian eediots. Most are illiterates.

May their fathers leave them in debt like PDP did to Nigeria.

A Government that inherits massive debt in the face of dwindling oil revenue has no choice but to state the debt they were left in, especially when the previous Government looted us into debt instead of saving money when oil was $100 pb.

We've lost to City Leicester westHam Everton Stoke(twice) Crystal Palace Liverpool and Southampton and Drawn with Newcastle

Are you genuinely saying the our midfield is not as good as the teams up there?

Wow.

Maybe Jose truly over achieved with that team then.
Are you willing to bet your balls that Kurt Zouma walks into West Ham or Leicester midfield? Yes or No?

Nobody said that there aren't any other problems...BUT...look at our performance in our last game and compare to the performance in any other game this season...

Are you genuinely saying that Bournemouth has a better midfield than Chelsea? Or Leicester even with Kante? Or West Ham? Or Everton?

I can understand if we were losing to big teams with Vastly superior midfields, but saying that we lost to Bournemouth's midfield of Arter, Gosling and co is itself an exercise in facetiousness...
Bournemouth was an anomaly. They scored from corner not from overrunning our midfield as everyone else has done.

The others all have more stable midfield than us defensively.

Unless you are willing to bet your balls that Kurt Zouma walks into Leicester, West Ham or Evertons midfield, THAT IS A FACT!
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Ibime(m): 2:44pm On Dec 21, 2015
Lets get one thing straight. . .

A team does not drop to 16th in the table just because players are unhappy with the behaviour of the manager. . . there are clear structural and tactical issues which compounded with the players unhappiness brought us to this position.

An unhappy team does not concede 3 goals a game when it has Makelele, Ballack, Essien, Lampard sitting in front of the defence. Even a normal able bodied midfield would prevent the disaster we have witnessed eg Meireles, Tiago Motta or any midfielders that can do the basics.

A team that relies on the wingers to do its defending in the absence of a solid midfield will drop to 16th and that is a structural issue excarcebated by the players unhappiness.

Case in point. . .

Chelsea team under AVB were in open revolt against the manager.

Lampard said he didnt get on with AVB and AVB doesnt play him. Ashley Cole and Drogba clearly hated the manager.

Alex and Anelka openly challenged the manager and AVB SACKED them from the club mid-season which all their teammates were unhappy about.

Any issues you think players had with Jose pales into insignificance compared to the open war between AVB and his players.

This was a clear and open revolt against the manager, yet that team never dropped below 6th on the table despite CLEAR animosity between the players and the manager.

Half of Real Madrid team were at open war with Jose in his last season, yet they finished 2nd.

So anybody that tries to reduce Chelsea problems this season to simply player unhappiness is being facetious. There is a clear structural weakness we have all seen in the midfield especially which contributed greatly to where we are. A structural weakness we had to use Kurt phucking Zouma to plug for half of last season due to lack of stable midfielders!

Infact I fully believe we could have arrested our slide somewhat if the right midfield was in place.

debosky:
When I told Ibime months ago the issue was with JM alienating his players and everyone else at the club he disagreed. hammering on his debunked 'no midfield' postulation supported by oft-repeated Emenalo is at fault thesis. One would think the midfield of Watford, Leicester, Crystal Palace, Stoke, West Brom, etc. were better than Chelski's.

Sow the wind and you reap the whirlwind - encouraging bad behaviour by Costa and co till they finally decided it was OK to also display the same behaviour to their own manager.

Now Emenalo has left a team of wingers and wusses LOL. Weren't y'all crowing about Costa and Fabregas a few months ago? Now they fall in the wusses category? cheesy

Revisionism is de rigueur for Chelski fans right now anyway so no surprises there .
It be like say something dey scratch your nyash today.

I have never deviated from my stance that Emenalos poor stocking of the midfield is a serious problem for Chelsea. One I repeated all summer and over the last 4 years.

Neither have I failed to state as I have for months that Jose has been behaving erratically all summer due to issues at boardroom level. I stated so severally before, during and after the Caneiro incident. It does not take away from the fact that a stronger midfield would have put many games to bed, Joses behaviour notwithstanding.

Your attempt to paint my long-held stance that this is a team of ninnies as 'revisionism' further shows your duplicitous nature. It is a mantra I have sung for years, without question.

Stick your silly attempt to pit my oft-repeated positions at odds with each other where the sun dont shine. I dont have time for your obfuscation today.

Then which player made the "I would rather lose than play for José statement"
I see you pick your least favourite CFC player as a possible candidate grin
The journalist who alleged such story should tell us. . . Im not into guessing what is likely to be a fabrication.

I only know the regular player who never once offered his support for JM in public, and thats Oscar.

Azpi, Matic, Ramires, Cahill, Costa, Willian and Hazard all publicly showed their support. . . most of all Terry and Cesc.

The only quiet nigga was Oscar. Even his agent told us in November that he is extremely unhappy at Chelsea.

Whether Oscar is unhappy is irrelevant, because the player is irrelevant. Just like Mikel, Djoliboli and Rahmans feelings are irrelevant. Every squad has unhappy wastemen on the bench whose feelings dont matter.

Quote from Daily Mail:

Hiddink will not find it as easy as 2009. Then the club were in 4th place and had strong leaders in the dressing room like Drogba, Lampard, Cech, Terry, Ballack and Essien.

This summarises totally the damage Emenalo has done to this club in the last 4 years. All that is left is a team of wingers and wusses.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Ibime(m):
A lot of uninformed people labelling Cesc, Hazard and Costa as snakes.

First off all Cesc was NEVER a snake. He was just a player out of form due to the fact he was not physically capable of performing the role required of him. He just does not have the legs but he is one of Mourinhos greatest supporters.

Even JM does not believe Fabregas sabotaged him as below:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/chelsea/12060568/Chelsea-news-Jose-Mourinho-and-Cesc-Fabregas-were-allies-not-enemies.html

Hazard was also not a snake and continues to text JM till today. Costa behaved spontaneously at Spurs but is not an enemy of Jose either. He also expressed his support and blamed himself for turning up for preseason out of shape.



I would not call anyone a snake per se, just to say the players were all passively unhappy due to Mourinhos eratic behaviour since summer . . .when you are passively unhappy, you are not a saboteur, it just means you wont push yourself past your limit for the good of the team, which happy players do without thinking.

The source of Mourinhos eratic behaviour was of course his disagreement with board over the needs of the team, and especially Emenalo the only football man in the 5 man board who does not recognise the weakness of the team and vetoed all his plans in front of the board (Roman, Marina, Bruce Buck, Eugene Tenebaum and Emenalo the snake)

Joses problem was transferring his aggression to the players and staff under him who do not know what transpired at board level. I cannot fault players for being unmotivated to give the extra blood and sweat for a boss who had been behaving eratically since summer.

If you ask me, there are no snakes, however one player in particular has been ambivalent to Mourinho and offered zero support and that is Oscar with his grumbles even going back to last season. He must be the happiest of the lot when JM got sacked.

That fool of a technical director is at it again. . . . championing a wuss manager who is severely underacheiving with Man City to do boy boy for him. . .


From FoxSports. . .



Emenalo has long been an admirer of Pellegrini's calm and unfussy style of management, advising Roman Abramovich to appoint the Chilean instead of bringing Mourinho back to Chelsea in 2013. The former Nigeria international, who was brought to Stamford Bridge by Avram Grant in 2007 from a position coaching a girls side at Tucson Soccer Academy, is again championing Pellegrini's conciliatory style of handling players and public relations -- historically, key concerns for Chelsea's billionaire owner.

According to senior Chelsea sources, financial terms have already been discussed with Pellegrini's representatives and a pre-contract deal put in place. Abramovich is also understood to be considering installing Didier Drogba as one of Pellegrini's assistants, with the hugely popular former Chelsea striker already on record about an agreement to return to the club in a coaching capacity after his spell in MLS at Montreal Impact.

Looks like it was Emenalo's recommendation that led the board to make this decision. . . Its no secret the dude's felt threatened of Mourinho's power at the club. . even though he was 'Director of Football'.

Ibime. . Your Emenalo is at it again grin
Emenalo is the slimy rat who told the board in the summer that Chelsea do not need new players when Mourinho told em he had just overachieved with that group.

This is the origin of all the problems. That disagreement with the board is what made Jose to come back at season start in a foul mood and having short temper with his staff.

Now Jose is out the way, expect announcement of contract renewal for Mikel before a permanent manager is appointed. Its the same way he used to give Mikel contract in 2012 as soon as RDM got sacked.

Mou had almost 6 seasons. Ancellotti had just 2.
Ancelottis second season was derailed by the Ray Wilkins affair. He is up there as one of the top 5 names in coaching.

Yet Ancelotti never made us feel like Jose - who made us feel completely dominant to the point of racking 95 points in a season, conceding only 15 goals and not losing a home game for 3 years.

Its 2 different feelings!

All these in less than 7years. Nothing JM did others didn't so and some more. I still believe without money JM would have won nothing. Nobody should mention Porto abeg. Flukes happen.
But nobody won the league in 6 years except Ancelotti once.

Jose won the league 3 times in 5 attempts.

That's Leicester's game plan to a T though. Ngolo Kante is making the joint second highest number of tackles per game in the league. They sit deep and choke the space, leave you to pass the ball around in your half, then Kante steals the ball from you and passes it to Vardy or Mahrez.
I like to study central midfielders and their functions which is why I keep harping on about the utter incompetence of Chelsea midfield. . . .

N'Golo Kante is a solid ninja, skillful and energetic at the same time. . . . soon as I saw the nigga play, I was impressed.

Leicester didn't harm us on counterattack yesterday. We were in our own box when they scored.

Funny how niggas won't mention that since Courtois came back, he has lost us two games.

Against Bournemouth, he gave a weak arse punch from the corner that led to Bournemouth winning the game.

Yesterday, he was busy playing head tennis instead of catching the ball. . . . which led to Mahrez goal.

This is why I don't compare newbies to my legends like Cech who are tried and tested. You need a record of performance before I start to even compare you to my legends.
