@ ritchboi,

I agree with u 100%
Bojan is the most promising player in the just concluded under 17 championships.
He has already featured for Barcelona this season where he got the whole Nou Camp applauding his rare skills.
Bojan looks the real deal and i expect him to blaze the world in 5 years time.

@ nateevs,

At this point, i must say u under-estimate the potentials of Chelsea team.
Son, these players earn millions of pounds every year and that makes em professionals.
Lemme ask u one question? Where does the loyalty of these players lie? In Chelsea fans or in Jose Mourinho?
Jose Mourinho doesn't pay their wages . . . .Chelsea fans do.
You buy merchandises, pay for subscriptions online and TV plus matchday tickets and Chelsea magazines(These expenses pay their wages).
There can be no excuses from Terry and co. . . . . . They are professionals.

As per Avram Grant, The jury is out on him.
The only thing i can guarantee at this point is he will NOT WIN 2 Premiership titles in his first 2 seasons at Chelsea.
Weird as it may sound, the only place where u can get a manager that will match Jose's records is at Emirates and Old Trafford.
Obviously, Roman will support him and funds will be available to buy more players in January. You can now expect RONALDINHO.
Chelsea announced this guy will be permanent but he will be sacked if he does not produce results . . . the fans don't like him.
Few minutes ago, Chelsea fans were singing JOSE MOURINHO's name as the team bus was parking at Old Trafford.
Grant is under a lot of pressure . . . He needs good results fast to get Chelsea fans behind him.
Failure to do that will be CATASTROPHIC.

@ nateevs,

Drogba and Lampard didnt travel to Manchester.
Chelsea would still give a performance with or without Mourinho.
These lads are professionals and not cry babies . . . . .
Its the players that do the job on the pitch and not Jose Mourinho.
I dunno why y'all are losing hope already . . . . I still see Chelsea finishing top 2 with at least 1 or 2 titles this season.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Chelsea Fans: Identify Yourselves Here (Old) by Jackal(m): 10:56pm On Sep 22, 2007
@ Mustay,

You are still missing the point.
Roman bought Sheva and Ballack because he felt such players will add vibe and colour to a boring Chelsea side.
There's a difference between winning titles ugly AND winning title playing breath-taking football.
Barcelona of 2005/06 won the La Liga and UEFA playing expansive and attractive footie . . . THAT IS WHAT ROMAN WANTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Be honest with yourself . . . . . . . .Did u ever think Shevchenko and Ballack will be flops at Chelsea?
As a Man Utd fan . . .I was saying hail marys when Roman bought those players . . . I thunk this is it . . .Chelsea will blow everyone away.
Roman felt the same way as well . . . . He thunk the addition of world class players in Chelsea will make em play beautiful football.
It was up to Mourinho to PLOT/STRATEGISE and find a balance between winning and play expansive football.
Jose with all the money he had couldn't achieve that AND that to Abrahamovic is regarded as FAILURE.
Dont blame RA for doing what he did. . . . . . . .At this level, its a thin line between SUCCESS & FAILURE.

I hope to God he gets booted off by November.
Grant ma ass . . . .  . . . . he can never match Mourinho's aura on and off the pitch.

Cant wait for Man Utd to play Liverpool/Arsenal.
Chelse V Man Utd is not a head to head game anymore.

@ Akolawole,

Whats happening tomorrow?
Are u refering to the match?
The match has lost its colour . . . . I cant be bovvered about it.
No Jose . . .No pre-match banters about Ronaldo not diving or the Referee favouring Man Utd.
Furthermore, no wines to share between both gaffers . . . . . Jose even vowed he wld not watch the match!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its FUCKERY!!!!!!!!!!
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Chelsea Fans: Identify Yourselves Here (Old) by Jackal(m): 7:21pm On Sep 22, 2007
@ Akolawole,

Did Jose turn it around last season?
Why should Roman exercise patience when its obvious teams dont fear Chelsea again.
Jose's Chelsea dont concede 7 goals in 7 matches played this season . . . . . They hardly concede goals or draw games.
Birmingham's 3-2 defeat was the day i started suspecting something was wrong . . . .
Then the loss to Villa, scrappy results against Blackburn and Rosenborg plus Chelsea is not even playing the agreed attractive footie.

Secondly, if Chelsea says the fee is undisclosed . . . what makes u think the selling club wont disclose to the tabloids.
It works both ways . . . .If the buyer is not revealing, the seller might reveal and THE SUN will go any length to uncover the truth.
That is why they are THICK . . . . . . . .
I am pretty confident Kalou's deal was around 8-9 million pounds . . . . . .
What else do u have to say on this?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Jose Mourinho Sacked! ('Resigns') by Jackal(m): 7:13pm On Sep 22, 2007
@ Akolawole,

Debosky was right.
Jose Mourinho was a lucky bastard who came to reap where he didnt sow.
The spine of Chelsea was already fashioned out by Ranieri.
CECH-TERRY-MAKELELE-LAMPARD-GUDJOHNSEN.
Jose came in and change Gudjohnsen with DROGBA and they won titles.

Let it be known that there were other players in Robben, Joe Cole and Damien Duff(Ranieri's imports)
Ranieri took Chelsea to the 2nd spot in the league and lost narrowly in the S/finals of UEFA . . . .How is that different to Jose's record last season?
The tinkerman defeated the UNBEATEN TEAM of ARSENAL at Highbury in the Q-finals . . . That was an achievement on its own.
Claudio was cut-short and any manager joining Chelsea when Mourinho did couldn't have performed less than Jose with the unlimited funds.
Lets compare Mourinho's buys to Ranieri's and evaluate which group is better.
Mourinho was a brilliant chap but part of his success came as a result of pure luck.
LET HIM BUILD/MOULD HIS OWN TEAM before he can be mentioned in the same breath as FERGIE/WENGER and RIJKAARD.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Chelsea Fans: Identify Yourselves Here (Old) by Jackal(m): 6:59pm On Sep 22, 2007
@ Akolawole,

It is not too hard to figure out.
Those contracts are have got price-tags and these days u hear it can be up to . . . .  .so-so-so figures.
Wayne Rooney's price tag is up to 27 million pounds with an initial payment of 20 million pounds to Everton.
The remainder depends on the number of appearances for Man Utd/England and the successes.
I agree the exact amount cannot be too clear to any of us but Jose hasnt spent less than 200 million pounds(no matter how).

Stop deluding urself.
Jose's results had nuthing to do with what?
Are u telling me if Jose had won all the league matches/UEFA match he would have been sacked as well?
I cant believe what u spew sometimes . . . . . .Jose was living on the edge before the season started.
Some couple of matches . . . .ASTON VILLA, BLACKBURN and ROSENBORG was the final straw.
Jose's bad run in the league and UEFA is the catalyst for his departure.

P.S. Salomon Kalou signed a 8 million pounds deal for Chelsea.

@ nateeevs,

You make me laugh, son.
Do u realise the stakes are now higher?
Roman is a Russian for crying out loud so what do u expect?  These peops are cold-hearted and being a billionaire makes him RUTHLESS.
He is not getting what he wants from Jose Mourinho and if u look at it critically . . . . JOSE got worse.
UEFA branded Jose Mourinho/Chelsea an enemy of football in the Anders Frisk saga.

There's bad publicity everywhere u look . . . .Ashley Cole, Public rants and various outbursts.
Chelsea's image is being dented with Mourinho's loose-cannon behaviour.
Roman is furious with Mourinho's moans about not having enough money to buy the players he wanted.
The EGG press conference didnt help matters as well when Mourinho was saying he doesnt have enough quality to make an omelette.
Roman constantly asked his allies why Chelsea couldnt play like Arsenal and Man Utd . . . . . . .

Points and prizes were the only 2 things that matters to Mourinho.
Obviously, Abrahamovic wanted it to be pleasing to the eye to attract more fans.
Barcelona and Man Utd convinced Roman that beautiful football and winning titles can CO-EXIST.
Chelsea’s wretched performance against Rosenborg in the Champions League on Tuesday hastened the departure.
Stamford Bridge was half-empty and Chelsea hitting long high balls in the direction of captain John Terry as a makeshift centre forward smacked of desperation especially when 300 million pounds have been splashed on the team.  A good manager should have planned against contingencies and playing your central defender in the attack to win a match for u does not show brilliance. Rafa Benitez with a tighter budget than Jose couldnt have drafted Carragher as a striker!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Son, u cannot blame ROMAN. He simply felt this was the best time he could part ways with Jose . . . . . . .

@ nateevs,

The timing of the decison has nuthing to do with it.
Jose Mourinho's exit is like the death of the Queen mother.
You are expecting it to happen but then it SURPRISES u when it happens.
This wasn't a sudden developments . . . . there have been rumours about the relationship between Jose and Roman.

Jose promised Roman he would play a more attractive and expansive football this season.
Mourinho brought in some exciting players in Malouda and changed his formation to accomodate more expansive football which hasnt worked.
300 million pounds is a huge sum of money to splash on a team and i dont think Roman was asking for too much if he demands champagne soccer.
Winning ugly all the time can sometimes be boring and to think Arsenal plays crisp footie on a mean budget is enuff to make Roman green with envy.

I think it got to a point where Roman couldn't take it no more.
Chelsea selling just 24,000 tickets in an European night, Drawing against Blackburn, Rosenborg and losing to Aston Villa.
Big decisons had to be made . . .Heads needed to roll and they came up with a decison to let Jose go . . . How is that unwise?
I understand Jose has done significantly well at Chelsea and replacing him will be a huge task but life has to go on.
He will be sorely missed but saying Roman is unwise is ludicrous . . . . . .
Trust me . . . . he loves Chelsea more than u fans and that was the reason why he brought in Jose in the 1st place.

Chelsea will never spew the truth about this issue.
Dont be too surprised if u keep hearing different versions.
They didnt spew the truth when they met Cashley in a London Hotel, did they?

How can a bust up between player and manager cause the exit of Jose Mourinho?
Anutha theory is . . . .If Jose had resigned then he shouldnt be entitled to any compensation.
If he was sacked . . . .why would Chelsea claim it was a contractual mutual agreement?

Its a mystery.
The truth will never come out until Jose speaks out or a Chelsea player leaves and writes a book.
Fuckever the case might be . . . Jose Mourinho will be missed and i think England has lost one of the finest managers in the game.
