Nick Chelsea said:
Is he good Nick? Seriously I have no idea. Hope he is better than Luiz at defending.

He has a lot of potential, and has a bright future. Rash at times, but somewhat expected. He'll grow out of it considering the amount of experienced heads he will be surrounded by and, of course, Mourinho.
 
Good result for us with Arsenal dropping points ... Hopefully City do the same

Yes well, neither are your other strikers.

Very harsh to be fair. Eto'o does so much good for this team even the fans have noticed it in recent weeks. He's a leader on the pitch, he's opportunisti, he never never stops charging down the goal keeper/defenders and he is a very good link man. As Mourinho said after the Newcastle game because of him trying to do so much on his own at Anzhi and with Camaroon at times he has played deep and can play that sort of role. Lets not forget, everyone was writing us off at the start of the season because we didn't have a striker who would score 20+ goals in a season, how wrong they were.

Nobody was writing Chelsea off for that reason.. You haven't had a 20 goal a season striker for like the past 4 years. It's nothing new so stop making out you're defying the odds by being top. You're not.

I personally never heard many people tipping us for the title in the summer because of that reason and more so Chelsea fans especially once we let Lukaku go on deadline day. Your point of us not having a 20 goal a season striker is a point i always bring up when people say that we need one.

You still need one. Your team is far from perfect.
 
Mourinho on Wenger: "He is a specialist at failure. I am not."
 
Van Ginkel should be back playing for the first-team in a month or so which is very good. Excellent recovery from the ACL injury. He will have a big role to play next season if Lampard leaves which looks likely. Don't think we need to spend on a midfielder with him returning ... Shaw and a good striker would make be excellent business in the summer

It's a shame he got injured because a midfield 2 of him and Matic would be epic.

Huge blow because this was a season which he could have used to get used to the EPL before assuming a bigger role next season ... Let's hope he can hit the ground running when he returns
 
Playing with fire? Didn't he just say it's Chelsea's to lose? Not exactly playing with fire, just making the observation that Chelsea are top
 
Shame that we are going to the Etihad without Cahill and Terry ... I personally don't mind losing this as it will give the squad much needed rest for the business end of the season

I do! City have Barca mid-week and we have a weeks rest so i fully expect us to go all out to win. Will be much tougher without JT and Cahill mind.

I rather not get tangled up in two competitions and end up winning none of them ... Will be ecstatic with a win obviously but don't mind a loss at all. A premiere league title and CL quarter-finals would be a very good season considering we have no striker and had no proper midfield until about a month ago
