Ibis already taking trash about Mata...

I'm not talking trash. I simply don't care anymore. He's dead to me.

Oscar is playing like "Mata who?" today.

Watch your tongue. When oscar helps Chelsea win a CL he can be compared to the one who Mattars

Dope FK though

No, you were talking trash about a class player how helped lead your beloved blues to a CL & Europa league win while also proving to be a versatile played under 3 or 4 managers in as many different change in tactics as well. Instead of saying what a great job Oscar is doing under the new manager, you chose to single out Mata as if he did nothing to contribute to the relatively recent success. I hate to see ignorance like this in sports threads but to each his own I guess.

Not taking away from Oscar who is playing well, but Im glad at least one supporter can show a little gratitude.

Maradona: Pele always second best
January 26, 2014

By ESPN staff
Argentina legend Diego Maradona has renewed his long-running feud with great rival Pele, insisting that the Brazilian will always remain inferior.

The pair are considered by many to be the two greatest players in the history of the game.
Pele was awarded the Ballon d'Or Prix d'Honneur in Switzerland last week, after being ineligible to win the orginal Ballon d’Or during his playing days as it was then only for those plying their trade in Europe.

However, Maradona, who has often spoken out against the former Santos man in the past, was far from impressed at FIFA’s decision to honour the Brazilian.

“How can you say that Pele received the Ballon d’Or before me? I received the award in Paris [in 1996]. So to make Pele the first one to receive the award before me is a huge mistake,” he said.

“According to me, Pele will always remain second best in football when compared to Maradona. Look at it this way, in his own country, Brazil, Pele is the second best sportsman after Ayrton Senna [the former F1 driver].

“Pele will always be second, be it in international football or in Brazilian sports. The sad thing is that he is second best and he will continue to stay in that position.

“While presenting the award [this year’s Ballon d’Or] to Cristiano Ronaldo, Pele uttered his name as ‘Cristiano Leonardo’. This just shows where he belongs.”

Maradona, the former Argentina manager, is currently the Dubai sports ambassador, and added: “I am happy with what I am doing for football and for myself. I am content living in a home in Dubai, but Pele lives in FIFA.”

You're reading way too much into a simple "Mata who?" comment. It's not that serious. I wasn't "talking trash". It was just a quip.

It's like an ex-girlfriend. I loved him when he was a Chelsea player, I appreciate the past. But I've moved on and he means nothing to me now.

Gundogan please come to united. Shoot take the number 7

 

[keepie uppie]

Coupé It ,how good is Fernando? i heard Utd is interested in him...

 

[mastamind89]

Always good to start the day off with some humor

 

[Coupé It]

Psk, you went hard at Ibis for something small man lol. "Mata who" isn't serious, he's said much worse.

Dude who asked about Fernando, I mean he's good. He became a Portuguese citizen recently but I don't even think he'll be called up to the squad for the WC. He's Porto's best defensive midfielder but I can't see why United would want him.

 

[mastamind89]

Nico singed a two year deal with Brentford. Best of luck to him

 

[rook]

United giving rooney full power and BANK.
