Jose Mourinho said that he would not watch Chelsea's matches in the next
three or so outting after his departure from the bridge.
Was he right?
Could the Blues have lost like they did to Manchester Uniteed if the "Special One"
had ben sitting there on the bench supervising the proceedings?
My believe is that they could not have .
We watch a soulless Chelsea FC for the first time in recent time.The usual fighting
spirit was not just there and that is the truth.
Some blamed the central Referree for the misfortune of the Blues.They said he cause
them the match immediately he gave Mikel Obi that Red card.Whether Mikel deserve
the card or not is for another time of debate.
Did Chelsea fans forget that it was not the first time they would be one man down and
yet they had performed in the same circumstances in the past?
Let me remind you if you've forgotten.
Chelsea played one man down against Vallencia at the second leg match of the 2006/7
UEFA Champions League quarter final match and they ended up the winners because
of Mourinho's "Winner Spirit Syndrome".
They were one man down against Arsenal at the final of the 2006'7 Carling Cup and
they won the cup all the same.
The truth is that we are now beginning to experience the effects of the departure of
The Special One, Jose Mourinho himself.
I'm yet to be convinced that there was no divided dressing-room for Chelsea on the
day they played against Man U.
My reason?
Mourinho has some players that love him so much they did not want him to go.
The likes of Didier Drogba,Michael Essien, Calvalho, Frank Lampard , Shaun
Wright -Phillips (Whom Mourinho has started to use consistently since the
beginning of the season-Did you notice the guy came in as a substitude against Man U?).
Mikel Obi- Mourinho's special jewel from Africa. And they other new players who
signed for the team believing that Mourinho would continue to be incharge for long.
It's high time Chelsea get their acts together quickly otherwise the departure of Mourinho
may spell their doom.
Somebody should please convince me that l'm wrong.
Up Blues!
