All Chelsea's key players are having top seasons, and that's why they are topping the league. Terry has rolled back the years, Ivanovic has arguably been the best FB in the division, Matic has been superb, Hazard is having a good but not spectacular season, Fabregas has been terrific, and Costa has arguably been the best striker in the league.

They're topping the league because they have about seven proven reformers who are CONSISTENTLY giving top displays. General good health has helped, but the gaffer largely won this league in the last two transfer windows.

Rex

They are good players, but I think calling them reformers is going too far. 🙂

Gooner Tim's the new Villa Manager 🙂

What? 😆

Ray

Most of those stats are pointless. Only 14 goals...

Segway

Yeah, he's been average.

Clrnc

He's been great, but then again he's also been great since he joined Chelsea which is why not much attention is given nowdays as it's the norm.

Rex

Alexis is having a spectacular season, Costa is having a top class season, Fabregas and Costa are having great seasons, Harry Kane and Charlie Austin are having great seasons. Hazard is having a good but not spectacular season. 9 goals and 5 assists in the league for a player of his quality can obviously never count as a great season so far.

Claudius

Rex, do y watch Chelsea games? Hazard tears shit up. He's as close as you get to Robben.

ludovicvanzis

Hazard is a better version of Chamberlain.

They bring more to the table than end product. A lot more.

Alfonso

I see Villa have appointed Sherwood.

To be fair prob the best appointment they could make in their situation.

He's a big time Charlie but I reckon he will keep them up.

banduan

Yous nuts if you don think Hazard been tearin it up.

Rex

Watched almost all of Chelsea's games this season.

Klaus

That would go a long way to qualify you as being nuts tbh.

They really, really aren't. But, they have good players, and even a dinosaur like Moroninho would've to be insanely negative to prevent those from playing good football.

I haven't watched them much but when I have seen them, particularly recently, I haven't been blown away by their style.
What they do have are several players who only need a minute to change the course of a game backed by a generally solid, resolute defence.
They have been humiliated by Spurs and Bradford City though.

Incredible that Mourinho (or anyone else, for that matter) can be called a dinosaur when we have a manager right here at our club who hasn't been able to create a successful team in ten years and who still lives off decade-old glory and earns his £8 mm p.a. salary on that basis.

If that's incredible, then you'd be surprised how incredibly well you've managed to move the goalpost. I've read your post twice, but I'm yet to find anything related to playing-style, which, if I'm not mistaken, was the talking point. But, okay, go ahead, and keep rambling away.
