You won't be able to tell whether JC had a good season or not from that, although he's found himself out of the starting line up for Lille more recently whilst he's been fit.

Yeah I realise that. Considering he plays as a midfielder I would've expected more assists. He has 4 goals and 1 assist in the league I believe.

A lot of it's bullshit & Chelsea fans will know. Saying that, he isn't flawless through as a season there's always a handful of mistakes, there are only miniscule, I have nevvvvver seen Terry have a half like he did at Liverpool, which was why I found it hilarious. To his credit he pulled it back 2nd half.

Terry done the slip against Arsenal, some people forget that against City he made the mistake to let Balotelli in early (at home)
I can't remember too many other glaring mistakes, but, I remember with the high-line there were a few more at the top of the season.
Same w/ A.Cole under the AvB tactics he was so much more exposed.

this, wouldn't really as mind as the only people who don't rate terry are considering personality or don't watch chelsea enough, but "terry isn't quality" is one of the most recurrent myths among footballs pseudo-intellectuals

micah not getting called up is dumb, i think he has played more than zabaleta (although zabaleta is imo a great defender so i don't mind this tbh)

very interested in the squad tbh, probably dumb but i'm willing to accept hard-working unfashionable players a bit more under woy, seems what he works best with and who he could get a response with - for example rooney might think he's that guy/let his preferance for redknapp show (just for arguments sake) while someone like grant holt will be ecstatic to be there listen to every word said and work his arse off
