P45Mustang Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Yet another one of those "stand up and be counted games" is only just over 7 hours away. I am not a lover of Frank Lampard as some off you will know (past his sell by date by 2 years imho) but with players cup tied suspension,players on yellow cards etc i can see him playing a part tonight. This shapes up a to be a very slow and tactical game with probably very little pace invovled (right up Franks street),but if it wasn,t for 2 fantastic passes by Frank over 2 leagues against Barca.......well. That's some pass, over 11 Kilometers. I think perhaps you meant rods or perhaps chains. Furlongs mate. Furlongs.Horse analogies are the new black. Mourinho said so. A 440 yd pass might be considered over hit..... Sent from my SM-N9005 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app As the crow flies, yes, perfectly correct. But if it's a curler....absolute fkcing magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P45Mustang Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) So, for the benefit of the knockers with not a good word to say: Chelsea are the ONLY EPL club remaining in any European competition. Never mind the injuries, the only way to approach the first leg against At Madrid was DAMAGE LIMITATION and hope for a lucky break. We have to beat them at the Bridge. At Madrid knocked Barcelona out and are top of La Liga. Tbh, if we beat them on penalties, or if the ref has a shocker and hands us the match I don't give a monkey's toss. Cech and Terry are both OUT for the rest of the season. And we've got Liverpool on Sunday. BBC reports Mourinho as saying he is prepared to rest players on Sunday and save them for the At Madrid game. His focus clearly, especially in light of the injuries, is winning the Champions League. THROW YOUR FKCING STONES AT US WHEN WE HAVE BEEN HUMILIATED IN THE EPL AND CL. Until then, try and keep some perspective.

StevieH Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 "BBC reports Mourinho as saying he is prepared to rest players on Sunday and save them for the At Madrid game." course he is. he's cried wolf and talked balls so often now nobody believes a word that he farts out of his trap any more.

Popular Post StevieH Posted April 23, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 23, 2014 you're using a lot more stroppy upper case lately sunshine. are you tired or just hungry? it's not called fear of failure, it's called getting his excuses in once again. if they lose at anfield and/or get knocked out by atletico, it's not his fault, it's the league's. he's a massive sh*thouse gobsh*te and nobody apart from chelsea fans believes a word he says any more. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P45Mustang Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I'm sick and tired of people knocking success. Believe what you want to believe about Mourinho. Your statement: "it's not called fear of failure, it's called getting his excuses in once again." This does not fit with his winning CV. It fits with the CV of a loser. You understand that concept I assume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P45Mustang Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 He's going sh** or bust for the CL. He obviously needs a conversation with Abramovich before the Club commits. "Fear of failure", despite what Wenger says, is NOT where he is coming from. He's a risk taker. The paradox of what many see as a negative style of football is not easy to grasp unless you can completely understand Mourinho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
