    Mata doesn't play because he doesn't fit our system.

    Mourinho has justified his decision with the way we've been playing. In the last 7 games we've won all 7 and conceded 2.

    Youve been dire..... I think only slightly better than us.

    Its a case of sacrificing footballing ability for solidarity. Like us, it says a lot about your midfield and defence.

    Stupidity?
    Jose sold a player he didn't want and was benchwarming for nearly £40million, once we have already played United twice, so he can take points from our rivals.
    Short sighted maybe, but we have sold a great player to a team who arent title rivals at a good price, nothing stupid there

    Selling your 2 x POTY in the 3rd year comes across as pretty stupid.

    It would be like Barcelona selling Messi to Madrid...... ish <ok>

    I think 12 points is more than "slightly" better, we have also scored 7 more goals and concded 7 less goals and are 4 places higher, that not slightly mate.
    Arsenal and City have been slightly better than Chelsea. you have been slightly better than Newcastle.

    If Messi never played and was stuck on the bench all season and Madrid were a midtable club yes, it would be.

    In terms on actual football youve been a bit poor. Grinding out results yes, playing good football? No.

    Mata played 13 times for you. Its not as if he didnt get a single minute. 13 out of 22 while not loads is still as many as several first teamers at other clubs play.

    Yep. Thats what I'm gettin at.

    You didnt see any United fans raving about how we play, not this season or last season or for quite a while. Gritty dull football that still gets results.

    Was he that bad? Probably a bit rusty.

    Always said players cant be expected to come in and be amazing after missing a few games at a time.

    Which Chelsea fans have been raving about the way we play? You said we were dire and performing 'slightly' better than United, whereas the table completely disagrees.
