Re: #WellDoneFA (ft. Gunner making an ass out of himself ...... again)

Redead, it's not a disgusting opinion really. Mata has been great and I don't think that he's miles behind the rest, if at all. You're probably a tad biased like most fans are to a point, but from what I've seen this season Mata has been Chelsea's stand out player, although that has probably been easy at times.

The one thing that I will say is that RVP scored a lot of important league goals in games where United won by one goal in the first half of the season. How much of a difference did Mata's goals/assists make? Was he always a game clincher or did he rack up lots of meaningless personal stats in games against shite hawk teams like us?

Not saying that RVP was much more of a difference maker, I'd just like to see a comparison for interests sake. Again, pure stats doesn't take into account all of the other things such as opposition performance on the day and quality of team mates, but it's still fascinating.

I remember Mata GOATing against Man U at the bridge before we went down to 9 men. Even with 10 men he was dominating. Scored a brilliant free kick. He assisted the opener and scored the winner against Arsenal at the Emirates. I think he scored the opener against Arsenal at the Bridge too. He also scored twice and had an assist against Spurs at WHL.

Re: #WellDoneFA (ft. Gunner making an ass out of himself ...... again)

For me, yes

He was the clincher

Unlike Mr Fernando, when the team looks completely lost or out of idea, its Juan who bails our sorry asses out of the fire. To the degree RVP did, but the reason I chose him was due to the season-long consistency which I think makes up for it

Re: #WellDoneFA (ft. Gunner making an ass out of himself ...... again)

Saw a rumour floating about twitter last night that Pardew was getting the sack at the end of the season and Ashley wanted Rafa.


Would lol
I'd lol more if he fired Alan and hired a League 1, unproven, lunatic of a manager. :phil1

I'm going to be honest right now. I have the best sig on the forum.

Well done Gareth Bale on winning both awards and being in the Team of the Year.

Surprised Nastasic isn't there though, then again after being completely left out of the award for Young Player of the Year I was sort of expecting him not to make it, but I am quite surprised that Ferdinand made it. Midfield/Attack certainly chose itself.

You never know, they show some fight if they did :hayden3

There's supposedly a clause meaning Pardew only gets a years pay in compensation if he's terminated.

Makes sense given how tight fisted Ashley is known to be really. Length of the contract was probably just to show trust in him or something. I know two mags fans atm, one who defends Pardew completely while just blaming injuries and bad luck and one who's wanted him gone since January. It's quite funny to watch them fight.

Heads up guys, I'm going to be showcasing some of Rafa's greatest victories and achievements soon. Consider it enlightenment and the gaining of knowledge on your own part. Feel free to share them with your friends if you wish.

#1 - Uefa Cup Final - Valencia - The Early Days

This was one of Rafa's earlier years in top flight management and after winning the league (LA LIGA), his fantastic Valencia side went on to beat Marseille in the final of the Uefa Cup. Two videos can be found on the said match, I particularly like the second video as the music really brings home the atmosphere and true meaning of the event. Both videos are brought to you by YouTube.

Valencia vs Marseille

Video Two



This team did consist of some terrific players including Aimar, Albelda and Baraja, but Rafa's acquisition of Mista, (the lone center forward) was key.

I think Rafa is getting a lot of unfair stick, the blokes a top manager. He's just walked into a no-win situation at Chelsea, just like Villas-Boas did, where the players didn't want him and would push their own agenda, rather than going along with what the manager wants. If he did go to Newcastle, I think they'd become a decent force again and push for those Europa places.
