you guys play in an artificially created financial league of your own so I think anything other than total domination is failure

That would be yourselves and City.
Our finances are created by our club, not our owners wealth.

Is that really a Chelsea supporter bleating about other teams spending too much?

I have to wonder if he was biting his bottom lip and hoping no one would notice, as he pressed send.
Pogba is better than just being an AMF though, imho
...........
He may be, I will hold off on that for now though. I think he is better suited from an attacking view point than a defending one.
I would rather he was a bit more further forward to stop teams easily playing it out from the back, like he did for one of the goals on Saturday.
There was a spell where I thought Swansea were given to much time in the second half to pass it out of defence.
Sounds like you want Matic, Pogba and Fellaini!
Only to someone who is fully aware of how that would miff me, Ji.

Re: Mahrez.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I was actually thinking about how Mahrez could fit into this team but concluded that he's gonna eventually create the same problems that Mata would on the right. Mahrez is essentially a more athletic Mata minus the footballing brains (to some degree).
I'd say we try Rashford out on the right. We know he can cross and he can wear out defenders with his pace. Why not use that on one side and Martial on the other?

Ideally: Carrick, matic and fellani. The Combination VC has wet dreams about.

Add Mata and Ibra and there's frightening pace in that team.

For me, Pogba has been freed up only when Fallaini comes on for one of the 3 behind Lukaku. That's when he has got further forward and scored/ assisted.
.......................
Imo Jose shouldn't start with both Mik and Mata. Start with Matic, Herrera and Pogs and one of Mik or Mata, with Rashers or Martial the other one with Lukaku.
So it looks like this.
Martial/ Rashers Lukaku Mik / Mata
...........Pogs.............Herrera..............
.......................Matic........................
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Agree with you. Makes no sense to me to play both Mikh and Mata.
I would play one or the other.
