I'm not Mourinho's biggest fan either but we can't keep changing managers at the drop of a hat. As we found out over the last decade the grass wasn't always greener without him. It's clear you'd like someone else in, but realistically who do you think is up to the job?
The guy who i would like to take over is now playing in the USA.

Doesn't seem like Terry was injured. I guess that will be this weeks OUTRAGE.

Looking at the replay the Ramires goal wasn't offside.

Oh no..Cuadrado !
Come on then, prove us all wrong. I'm quite happy to eat a slice of humble pie. |

Then please explain why our fan base grew after Jose left us?
Please explain why our away support was so poor during his time? I think it's very significant that, for the first time in a very long time we have not taken up our full allocation for today's game. If Jose stays, I can see this happening more and more. He wins things but at the price of turning people away.![]() Ignoring the facts of City giving more away tickets this season of course |

We're not supposed to concede goals like that.

Just look at the defences rather than the strikers of the top four rivals.
United, garbage, Liverpool, garbage, arsenal and city are dodgy. That's where it will be lost, when the defence lets in 6 against Stoke with no strengthening. Five in two games now.

3 - 0 !
The team has given up. Disgraceful! Sloppy by Ivanovic, and as said before something is seriously wrong. No fight, no heart, no desire to win. That is not a Chelsea team, and all week to prepare. The excuses are running out

A draw against a good team when we had ten men, and a loss away our biggest rivals. A bad start, but let's keep it in perspective.
I imagine the anti Chelsea press will have a field day, but I expect Chelsea to bounce back next Sunday. We look tired, cuadrado is useless. Even I can't excuse Jose for that sub. |

Begovic is the only player who performed today. Players don't look interested, much like the latter stages of last season.

All those pundits who said they couldn't find anything wrong with Chelsea at the start of the season have egg on their faces now...

Compared to City, we are so second rate our defence of the title is already over!
It's now all about wether we finish in the top four and how long he stays. This is Jose's team! A team that can only compete against mediocre teams playing mediocre football. At least maybe a few more might start to admit that the likes of William are just not good enough when up against good teams playing well. I'm not jumping on any bandwagon! I was saying before the season started we could easily finish outside the top four. Our football for half a season was of a quality that should not have been good enough for the top four. We got lucky because the opposistion was so weak! Please go now, Jose!!!!!! |

Cardinal rules
The first rule at the end of the season is improve the squad. The second rule, ensure there is competition for places in every position.
First rule - the squad is weaker, and there's plenty of money to improve it. Second rule - Where's the competition for Ivanovic? Where's the competition for Matic? Mikel?! Where's the competition for Costa? Fabregas? Not acceptable. This is not about having a go because of a draw and a loss. The warning signs were there in pre season, and nothing has been done. It's not looking good, and I think it will get worse.

Looking at the pre-season games, the Charity Shield, and our first two league games, something does appear to be wrong. Shaky at the back (which just isn't the normal Chelsea) and we never look like scoring from open play.

Jose has never been one for building teams" He has always worked as a short term boss. He runs out of ideas and the players get bored of the rigid tactics and not being allowed to express themseleves . |

That scoreline came as no surprise whatsoever considering how rank they've looked since pre-season began. Starting the season with a weaker squad than last was just asking for trouble. Something's inherently wrong and whilst I'm not advocating another change of manager yet, I wouldn't be too surprised if Mourinho doesn't last the season.
Bringing on Cuadrado and Falcao as subs was just taking the piss. Those two would struggle to get a game for Sunderland. If I was Moses or Remy I'd be preparing the transfer requests now. |

To be fair, without Oscar I would have probably named the same team. I wouldn't have played Fabregas in the pivot though, Ramires would have been there. Not that it would have made that much difference in my opinion, several players are considerably below par at the moment.

If Jose stays, I can see this happening more and more. He wins things but at the price of turning people away.
