Mata | Mourinho says it's just a Mata of time

[Suedesi]

With these recent allegations with Mourinho not wanting Mata, should we make a cheeky bid?

I've seen posts and news before that Jose doesn't want Mata. Now I see this one and I wonder where would he go?

Thats not in English, and its all bullshit, there is no way Jose would be getting rid of Mata, hes been our best player all season.

 

[KingEric7]

Find it more than a little hard to believe that Mourinho would go to a new club and just immediately sell his best player for no reason. He's controversial, not idiotic.

 

[ItsEssexRob]

Its not as if hes a good player but doesn't fit a certain manager or teams style, any team besides maybe Bayern Munich would be improved with Mata, and hes a respectable figure with no controversy. If Jose was to sell him I would instantly question us appointing him as manager, as it would be insane.

 

[Robbie Boy]

How much did Chelsea pay for him? He really is a fantastic little player.

 

[KingEric7]

Yeah, it is basically equivalent to Moyes coming in and selling Van Persie. Off the chart levels of madness.

 

[ItsEssexRob]

23.5 million.

There's a fine line between genius and insanity and it almost always gets crossed at some point, too.

 

[Robbie Boy]

23.5 million.

In today's market that is an absolute steal for a player of his age and unbelievable productivity.

 

[JaffyJoe]

No way does he sell Mata he is quality so consistent the type of player Mourinho will like he's a fighter as well. He is the most likeable player Chelsea have.

I think there could be something in this. Mourinho likes to play counter attacking football and essentially on the break. Relies on getting the ball forward quickly. Nara is a great player, but maybe slows the ball down a bit. Certainly a lot of clubs would like to have him.

 

[ItsEssexRob]

Im not sure where or why these stories are coming out, but they might be attempts to destabilize the player to try and get him to move, as I am aware the Spanish big guns are interested and it always seems to be Spanish sources this story stems from.

I agree, but what about Mata?

 

[Mr Anderson]

Waffle. Mata is Chelsea's best player. Mourinho would be a fool to offload him, and a fool he ain't.

 

[Sassy Colin]

You're all in denial, he's ours I tells ya, he's ours!






not really...

Fact.

 

[Gio]

He's not going anywhere. It's just filler for a news-starved press at the moment.

 

[gza the genius]

They can have Rooney if we can have Mata.

 

[Devil may care]

They'll be putting the special one on the special bus if he sold Mata.

 

[Vato]

I'd love it if he would end up at United. I'd absolutely love it!

Very good player and likeable bloke.

 

[JustAFan]

There are times you have to be smart enough not to believe everything you read even if it is on the internet.

 

[Summit]

This. No new manager coming into Chelsea would entertain this, surly not.

 

[cesc's_mullet]

No chance Mata would be sold, why would Mourinho want to sell most probably their best player?

Exactly. Mourinho is a lot of things, Stupid he isnt.

 

[rimaldo]

mourinho is not stupid. he may be a liar, a pig, an idiot and a communist, but he is not a porn star.

 

[Burrow]

Hah, Simpsons references. You are so cool, rimaldo.

 

[rimaldo]

are you kidding me? this sarcasm detector is off the charts!

Ozil is no quicker than Mata and he found a place for him. Mourinho will copy his 4-2-3-1 Real formation probably.

Ozil is quicker than Mata but that is irrelevant Mata is too good to let go.

 

[pablotatt]

Mata in the flesh is up there as one of the best players I've seen live. And I've seen some bloody good players.

 

[Vato]

Apparently Barca are interested in Mata. How the hell would they slot him in the team?

Really hope he never moves there, too much of a nice lad to end up with that lot.

 

[Sir A1ex]

too much of a nice lad to end up with that lot.

Odd thing to say about a player currently at Chelsea!

But, but... oh well feck it. You're right, we're cnuts too.

Sell Ramos & well talk again!

At Madrid Mourinho built his midfield attacking around Ozil's playmaking skills. Thus, I find it weird that people think he'd sell Mata, an identical player to Ozil.

Plus he will have Oscar as well in that same position who looks a class player already.

He'll love Mata more, Ozil lacked the stamina and isn't as willing to listen to the manager's instruction as Mata does.

I agree Ozil isn't as consistent also and he does not work as hard he is hit and miss hence why Mourinho found him so frustrating. Mourinho has had Lampard, Snejider and Ozil as his attacking midfielders. I don't think any of those is much better than Lampard though Lampard goals make him almost another striker.
