The Barclays Premier League thread 2015/2016

It'd be almost sad for a team to fall this far... if it wasn't Chelsea. >_>

[Jimmy]

haha wtf is going on 

[MJB]

What the fuck is happening at Chelsea? Where is Eden Hazard of last season?

Right on cue, what was Hazard doing giving it away there?

Hazard, Matic, Fabregas, Ivanovic, Terry. All been pretty piss poor.

[Jimmy]

Mane is fantastic, how was that not 4? 

[FLiam]

Chelsea's defence are playing like children. Embarrassing to watch Cahill, Ivanovic and Terry being bullied so easily.

By little Mané of all people.

As hilarious as this is, it makes it all the more frustrating that they beat us so easily.

Agreed. Although special circumstances certainly helped that day.

I'll enjoy this whilst it lasts. I'm sure it'll be our turn tomorrow.

[Jimmy]

If Chelsea somehow miss out on top four this year, I'm sure we'll find some spectacular way to not get in again, so I shouldn't get my hopes up in any way

[ZJ Penn]

The way it's going the top fours going to be Man City, Leicester, Southampton and Palace.

I fully expect us to get 4th in a season that the Premier League lose the 4th CL spot

Jose's lapsing into self-parody at this point.

Everything he says is ironic now.

You did it already in 11/12.

[ZJ Penn]

Does Mourinho not have anywhere to be?

[FLiam]

That was a fucking long interview, and all I got was that he was daring the FA to fine him and Abramovich to sack him. Not sure what that will all achieve.

It's that thing where big teams managers can always deflect when they've had a bad game or two, but when it gets to this many you have to actually take some responsibility otherwise your deflections end up getting you banned when you're blaming refs and almost universally condemned when you throw your physio under the bus. Throw in some standard childish jibes at Wenger and he's basically at his most cunty.

Edit: Falcao's dive.  Idiot.

To talk about not getting decisions after a game in which you got away with more than you were "robbed" of, is just stupid.

[Lineker]

Not seen it but apparently it was his most astonishing interview ever. 

[Dynamite]

The only bit of that interview I was surprised by was him talking about the sack so openly and why they shouldn't get rid of him. Everything else was standard 'blame literally everybody else except myself' Mourinho rubbish. 

[Gazz]

He's angling for the Sunderland job.
