Did Jose Mourinho trust Chelsea players too much?

Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas stated Jose Mourinho failed at Stamford Bridge this season because he put "too much trust" in his squad.

Mourinho, 53, was sacked in December, with the club one point above the relegation zone, seven months after he led them to the Premier League title.

Fabregas, 28, says the players "let him down" after being given extra holiday as reward for winning the league.

"I have huge respect for him," the Spain international told Sky Sports.

"The biggest problem was he trusted us too much, gave us more holiday because we were champions and we let him down. That was the main reason he had to go - and for that, myself and the team feel bad."



Quite possible but why this this never happen during the first season though.

Chelsea prepared to offer Antoine Griezmann substantial contract to seal deal!

Chelsea still hold out any expectation of fixing the exchange of Atletico Madrid assailant Antoine Griezmann, reports say.

The France worldwide has scored a noteworthy 29 objectives for Diego Simeone's men this season, with the London club edgy to land him as they hope to spruce up their striking choices.

Also, Abramovich's delegates will offer a lucrative contract to guarantee the arrangement completes, as indicated by The Mirror.

In spite of not being in the Champions League next season, Chelsea are sticking to conviction that a heavy wage will convince the 25-year-old to move to Stamford Bridge.

Whether the Frenchman would trade the Spanish capital for an absence of Champions League football remains to be seen.

He has developed into one of Europe's top strikers and an effective Euro 2016 could see the larger brands endeavoring to prise him away.

Chelsea 2 : Manchester City 1

These colossal brands are among the highest spending in the world over the past 10 years and we probably witnessed the most expensive fixture ever.
With less than a minute remaining Joe Hart and Matija Nastasic make a brazen mess of a clearing punt from William. When the hapless centre-back attempts to header the ball back to the goalkeeper he unbelivably nods it back to him. A determined Torres, who was an absolute dynamo throughout the match, never gave up and his efforts were subsequently converted into a goal.
Not quite a convincing victory but would surely prove to be invaluable in Chelsea campaign this season. Chelsea supporters will also be rest assured that under Mourinho’s wing Torres will progressively return to true form.

What will Demba Ba’s role be at Chelsea next season?

Although Neymar and Radamel Falcao will be going somewhere else attention may be focused on Edison Cavani of Napoli and Steven Jovetic of Fiorentina or perhaps Robert Lewondowski who is heavily linked to Manchester United. This means that Ba and Torres could find themselves on the bench or on their way out. The sensible move for Torres would be to off load Torres in exchange for Cavani where he could reunite with Benitez at Napoli.
Ba will, however, remain as they would need another striker even if a big name joins the squad. His role will be secondary of course. Maybe his move to Chelsea was after all pointless as the club is still searching for the ultimate Drogba replacement. Ba could also possibly be a surprise casualty of Mourinho’s return to Chelsea unless he can change the manager’s mind.

The explosive Hazard ready for Spurs clash

Rafael Benitez confirmed that the injured Harzard will be available to apply his trade to face the rampaging Spurs in a vital mid-week clash on Wednesday. However, John Obi Mikel and Ryan Bertand are not due to persistent injuries.
Spurs have become more that a mild irritation as Chelsea enters a points frenzy to consolidate their Champions League position. The indomitable Gareth Bale, AVB’s trump card and the League’s most influential player could possibly snatch any hopes of a return to Europe greatest stage. Hopefully, Hazard’s pace and superb finishing and inability to be dispossessed easliy could be a key personnel boost.
Chelsea is currently in third on 68 points with three games left, one point ahead of Arsenal, who have two games remaining, three points ahead of fifth placed Spurs – they do, however, have an inferior goal difference!
Andre Villas Boas, sacked by Chelsea 14 months ago, confirms that he feels no special attachment to his former club. He was not given enough time “so it means absolutely nothing”
