Mourinho on Mata, "Mata was injured for a while but he is ready to play. He's experienced&he is one of the few that has played Euro semis"

He also wrote this

"But the only risk is he cannot play 90 minutes but that is the risk of if he starts, does he finish. If he comes from the bench no problem for him to play. he is selcted and he can perfectly make a contribution.”
 
Ajax putting this tie to bed early. 3-0 up just after the break Younes with the 3rd after more sloppy defending. Ajax look like scoring every time they go forward.
 
3-0 Ajax. The French League continues to fail in Europe as it always has. The place where you gauge the strength of your league.
 
Doesn't Lyon have a few injury problems? Ofcourse they're missing Lacazette, but thought they missed some others aswell.

Anyways, Ajax is missing 3 of their defenders aswell... Lyon's GK looks horrible.
 
Dolberg gonna be a star I reckon. Can't believe this side average age 21 :0 some serious talent at Ajax atm.
 
Looks like Ajax in the final. I know Lyon can score 3 but keep a clean sheet no chance, even if Ajax only play half as good. Plus Lacaztte struggling with injury.

Now time to watch Mbappe and Fabinho (6)

Magnificent Ajax.

Fantastically exciting game of football.

Now come on Monaco! Do the same to the Juve F's!

I watch as much as Utd as i can (they are on TV 1,716 times a week so i'm bound to catch them at least once lol) but even he's other numbers are down (goal the exception as you rightfully pointed out).

His average key passes at Chelsea:

11/12 - 3
12/13 - 2.8
13/14 - 2.3

With Utd:
13/14 - 1.9
14/15 - 1.5
15/16 - 1.4
16/17 - 1.9

Its good to see his goal stats up at Utd however i'd argue he's far far better creating, maybe its the way Utd play i'm not sure.

My main gripe however isn't actually at Mata its mainly Mourinho. For the first time i can look at him from the outside an unbiast view if you will and its embarrassing the stuff he continues to come out with and i see some of Utd's fans comments regarding him and the teams form etc and i remember me and other Chelsea fans saying the same things! The mans attacking players publicly in season 1, questioning players commitment despite them being injured and contradicting himself time and time again.

You already said you have something against him. So how can you have an unbiased view?

United are playing relatively well this season, only relatively. But it still a **** of a lot better than since Ferguson, especially in creating chances. Definitely right to call out smalling and Jones. Frankly I'd bin the pair tbh.

As for Mata, he Pogba and Herrera are vital to our tempo. United play best with the three of them. Next season will probably see us field a pacy forward who will thrive better off their willingness to play through balls.

I'm getting to hate transfer windows more and more.

The rumours, which 9 times out of 10 are utter B/S, get beyond nauseating. And it's always the same (often uninformed) names piggybacking off one another.
