So no matter what Mou did, he would've been wrong #shedlogic
Even if mou had started them you'd have complained that he was taking too big a gamble on the game and taken Maribor too lightly

You might have a point if my criticism of him ever were that he doesn't throw youth players on in dead rubber games long since won. But that's not the case, and I suspect you know it.

The issue has always been whether he's able or willing to bring through youth in the long-term. Today's activity with Aké and Solanke is encouraging and great to see, but it does little to answer to that concern, only naturally. Only following this up with more appearances where possible for them and others will show if he's really committed to it, as he's been saying he is.

Great result against a nothing team, now we need to win the away leg and secure our knockout spot.

Glad to see Happy, Ake and Dom get minutes too. Thumbs up

All in all, a good day, minus the Remy injury, hopefully it's nothing serious.

by Kick Tue Oct 21, 2014 10:17 pm

By the way, Ake's assist :bow:

Mourinho told reporters after the game: "We played seriously. We faced the game in the right way and even at half-time at 3-0 the boys kept playing at a good speed and with good quality.

"I was surprised that Eden Hazard gave the ball to Didier Drogba for the penalty. I wasn't particularly pleased, no. I have my choices and Hazard is number one. Because it was a goal, I was happy."
