Comfortably the best? That's an enormous statement for a man who spent 3 years and 400m at Real Madrid, won virtually nowt and was roundly hated by everybody bar his players. Even some of them hated him.

Would be happy for Chelsea to lose to Athletico but don't want them to lose heart in the league. Not when they have Norwich and Cardiff left to play!
I am delighted that we got the decisions and a bit of good luck. We deserve it.
If those decisions had gone against us we would have been just as pissed off.
However viewing thing from a Chelsea viewpoint:
Larsson should have been off and a pen awarded for his assault on Ramires.
Our's was never a penalty.
Counter-balance - Ramires should have been sent off. However if Larsson had gone for the Ramires tackle the second incident wouldn't have happened.

What Larsson red card? Do you mean the shoulder-charge that Shearer and Hansen described as the 'best piece of defending all day'? Has somebody claimed it as a pen??
. Literally nobody I've watched has even mentioned it being close to a foul, not 1 Chelsea player (not even Ramires!) complained and the fans didn't react to it...

Guard idols probably wouldn't as he's a bit more classy than that. His record would do the talking.Pep Guardiola might have something to say about that, mind
Chelsea, aka Chavski - led by JT and managed by Mourinho. Hope they remain classy forever and a day.

Viewing it from a Chelsea point I would ask how they missed the chances they did especially the Ba one.
I dont think he is clever at all.the media try to give him the perception of being "special" I actually think he is a petulant child, needs his arse kicking

I can't for the life of me understand why he was so upset, he always reckoned they wouldn't win the title.

Agree. He's painted himself into a corner with all of his clever mind game comments.

Agree to a point - however he was being disingenuous when he said that, as could be seen by his following comments congratulating Mike Riley and Mike Dean for the way they have influenced the way the "championship."
Mike Dean for an 'unbelievable' and 'fantastic' performance with Riley getting praise for the 'fantastic' way which teams involved in the title race were being handled. He was being sarcastic and other than deflecting attention away from his own players failings - he took it out by praising them, praising us 'however we won it's fair enough so we deserve praise.'
Keep the faith lads - it can be done, but after our last two games Cardiff and West Brom will definately park the bus now as we are within touching distance. And we knownhow we struggle against this sort of set-up!

Mad thing to say. There's a few that are obviously just as good as him if not better.
His mate Pep did a canny job on making him gan mad like.

Klopp, Heynckes, Guardiola, Ancelotti, Hiddink could all be considered as good as anybody in management.
Heynckes in particular, did a better job at Real Madrid than Mourinho, with a weaker squad depth and a fraction of the finance.
He also turned Bayern from a side that finished 10 points behind behind Dortmund and won nothing, into treble winners in 2 seasons, knocking out Mourinho's Madrid en route. He even got Robben and Ribery tracking back.
Whilst Mourinho did an excellent job at Porto and Inter to counter Heynckes successes, the difference between Mourinho and Heynckes (and Pep, for that matter) is humility. Never once did I see Bayern's players or coaching staff assault the opposition, question the integrity of the referee and FA, blame everybody else for his own failings, and create a whingy, self-obsessed, victim attitude into his players and staff.
The number of red cards in big games against Mourinho managed teams is absolutely staggering. There is no conspiracy, he imprints this aggression and petulance on his sides.
No doubt he is a very good manager, but he will never be as good a manager as the the one he thinks he is.
The other gripe, is his criticism of Allardyce for playing a negative style of football. This is quite astonishing, considering Mourinho won the CL with Inter playing exactly like that. Defend rigidly in mass numbers and then counter attack with Sneijder, Eto'o and Milito and nick a goal. His current Chelsea side are hardly a carnival of tiki-taka, champagne football either; extremely boring and efficient.

Not sure how people can describe his deflection of criticism onto the referee as clever mind games or manipulation when, as clearly shown on this thread, both media and supporters have seen right through it. A beaten man in Mour ways than one.
