    I would agree that if you look at the movement (or complete lack of it) it seems as if some players have turned off. The obvious question has to be – WHY…? KTBFFH

    CFC1905 @ 10;54…seriously mate,if I was Jose I wouldn’t be asking ‘why?’…I’d say ‘ok,you don’t want to play for me,then you’re neither use nor ornament to me…you’re dropped no problem,I’ll just pluck some kid out of the reserve/academy guaranteed I’d get more committment and passion out of him than what you’re giving me and when that happens pal you can go rot somewhere for all I care stuff ya!’.It’s time for the soft words and muddle-coddling to stop.These players are sitting pretty knowing Jose will altimately bear the brunt for this mess even though it’s the players that go out on the pitch!.

    I think that in the last 3-4 matches, Chelsea players have started to play well again. Obviously the finishing weren’t there, the creativity weren’t there, but look at Hazard and Willian who run everywhere, defending and attacking. Look at Oscar. Look at Matic despite still sluggish but tried to win every ball. I think the motivation starts to arise. What a pity we lost against Bournemouth, we could not capitalize 7-8 corners we had and they capitalized the first corner they had in the 2nd half. Pedro could not score despite 5 attempts from himself only.

    mtal61 – I actually was not thinking that Jose would be asking WHY but the fans. For me, Jose probably has a much clearer picture of what is wrong and why but is playing his cards close to his chest. However, cannot disagree that there has to be some kind of stick/carrot to use with players and so why not drop some? In effect he already has when he listed about 8 when questioned over Costa being dropped for Spurs. Maybe those that have come in have not appreciated their chance but at the same time some players I thought might get a chance still have not featured much. Quite bizarre when you think of last season…? KTBFFH

    I have never agreed with this guy, but this one i have to agree with him. he is spot on, players are not putting a shift not only for Mourinho but also for us fans. i don’t know the reason behind that. but something from somewhere isn’t right. i still believe that Mourinho is the right man to turn things around.

    Very dangerous taking the stats from one game and coming to a conclusion, Chelsea dominated the ball and because of that the Bournemouth plays probably did have to cover more mileage.

    We are not playing well at the moment, some of the players are off form and our tactics might need tweaking but I can’t say that I have this season seen a Chelsea team or a Chelsea player who didn’t put in the effort!
