When he had his first spell at Chelsea I loved his interviews, he was funny. These days I think he's lost all his charm and just comes over as a moaner. There's a picture doing the rounds of him at a press conference after the 0-0 with Arsenal saying that a team that can't score at home are boring.

Yep.

Double yep.


And agree with Jah about ManC - if we end up going there on the last day of the season needing a point a fleet of charabancs won't be enough. Last night exposed Chelsea's limitations - they weren't baffled by BFS's genius, they just lacked the ability to overcome a group of players desperate for points and sick of being spanked.

From the Mourinho back catalogue of hypocrasy


A 1-0 second-leg defeat could not prevent dogged Inter, leading 3-1 from the San Siro, heading to the May 22 final against Bayern Munich.

Mourinho even received congratulatory texts from his old Chelsea friends.

Reacting to criticism of Inter?s defensive approach, Mourinho said: "It is a style of blood not skill. When the moment of leaving everything on the pitch arrives, you don't leave the skill you leave the blood.

"We were a team of heroes. We sweated blood. It's a pity I could not play because I have got the same blood. I have already won a Champions League but today was even better.

"We made huge sacrifices. It is always difficult to play against them with 10 (after Thiago Motta was dismissed). Barca are the best in the world with the ball. I am happy not because Barca lost but because Inter won.

You're either just shit stirring or you still don't get it.


I'll just say a good victory for the club... and for Allardiccio's strongdefence/long ball/bombs into the box muscular '?lan'.


Carroll out for three now though.


ETA: Though I did get the score right on the EDF Predictor League :)

I know - red rag and all that


Don't WANT to be relegated but would happily suffer it IF it got rid of SA. Unfortunately it might not even manage that as the porn brothers would probably think he was the best option for the Championship.


- and it looks like the style of footy that Allardiccio always said he wasn't "just all about" is at Upton Park to stay (as long as he is) and may be good enough to see off enough teams like Swansea (at home) to avoid the drop.


Like EP said - something about cogwheels and diffidence.

AM, come on, don,t be so logical. Football should be a game of passion, when we lose I hate it and I think the reason we are where we are falls squarely on BFS' shoulders. Do I want us to go down really? No, of course not. A small consolation if we did is that he,d (hopefully) go and I really hope ( against expectation) that he'd go if we stay up. You want logic...follow chess or something.

    • In just two days, we’ll take to the streets to show Donald Trump that he and his politics are not welcome here. On Saturday the global far-right mobilised their biggest protest for decades. We want to show that supporters of Trump and fascism are not the majority – far from it. Here are all the details you need for the day. The march assembles at Portland Place, near the BBC, at 2pm (see assembly blocs below). After speeches here, the march will move off at 3pm. It will then march down Regent St, through Piccadilly Circus, on Whitehall (past Downing St) to our rally at Parliament Square. The rally at Parliament Square will begin around 5pm and finish at 7pm. If you can’t make it to the march, feel free to join the rally after work! (Nearest tube: Westminster). The short, accessible version of the route assembles at the top of Whitehall (SW1A 2DY) at 4.30pm to march to Parliament Square for 5pm. You may also prefer to just join the rally directly at Parliament Square.  Join a bloc – and make friends! Our movement is diverse, and various elements are forming ‘blocs’ on the march to emphasise their visual presence collectively. You can join these blocs or form up behind them:   A) Palestine, near BBC, W1A 1AA B) Climate, W1B 1NS C) Amnesty, around junction with New Cavendish St, W1B 1LU D) Migrants' rights, W1B 1LS E) Jewish bloc, W1B 1QQ F) Ukraine, around junction with Weymouth St, W1B 1JL G) Europe, W1B 1NR More stewards still needed Stewards are a crucial part of keeping the protest safe for everyone to participate. They are a visible point of contact for attendees who may need directions or other assistance. Experience of stewarding is useful but it's also fine if you haven't done it before. You will be issued with a hi-vis jacket and briefed in advance and on the day.  Sign up to be a steward Staying comfortable on the day The demonstration lasts for several hours, so we suggest you should:     Bring a bottle of water and snacks (and eat beforehand)     Charge your phone fully the night before, and bring a portable charger if you can     Go to the loo beforehand (really!)     Buddy up with someone, or stick together as a group – it can be hard to find people easily if people wander off     Coming alone? Protests can be a great place to meet like-minded people. If you feel unsure, you can always talk to a steward     Consider the weather: bring a waterproof jacket or wear suncream where necessary     Wear comfortable clothes and footwear, and use our accessible route if you need to (see above) Bring your friends and family on Wednesday. Let’s make this massive! In solidarity, Stop Trump Coalition
