I wonder what would be my next style of reaction if i was Jose Mourinho the one and only Special One. After the game between Chelsea versus Fulham in a London derby, all i had after the 1-0 Chelsea loss was some pity for the great man. True indeed, because i am an ardent Blues fan, or fanatic! In football, i swear by the name of Chelsea (sic)!
Yet, that not withstanding, i feel the whole world has decided to act sadistic to the Blues out of pure hatred and loathing because they are showing a consistent class of champions. Well, some price to pay for taking the place of the dreaded Red Devils and the swift Gunners! But that is football men! Here, the champion reigns. Every time the Blues are out playing, home or away, everybody closes his fingers and leans in silence waiting for a moment of uproarious ecstacy brought about by a goal against the mighty and dorminant Blues. Not bad since no one can win the whole world to his side, but again it hurts when you have to lose games in what appears to be a pure conspiracy.
Chelsea has lost about seven points this season in very dubious circumstances, apart for the game against the Boros where the players were only a shadow of themselves. And that is why it is a high-level conspiracy. Conspiracy to have Jose Mourinho feel humbled! Conspiracy to have Chelsea players break. Conspiracy to have Chelsea lose focus in their games..............this and more! And well, from everyone: the officials, the taunting fans, the neutrals and, seemingly, the whole world! It is as if the team does not deserve to win. As if only the Red Devils, the Reds and the Gunners have the natural right to football dorminance.
The reason this haters advance painfully for their dislike of the Blues is that the team exists because of a strong financial backing, that the team plays boring football, that Mourinho is proud and so on. As if he has no right to be proud! Pride comes from within, guys, from what you have achieved. Well, far from the financial cry! The Blues team was started somewhere in the first quarter of the 20th Century, and i believe by then the Russian tycoon and his billions had not come into existence. And heavens, i dare anyone to tell me how a boring game earns 75 points in 31 games! Aren't Blues haters trying to justify their sadism?
This haters are trying to get to Mourinho and his gift of the gab. He has assembled an efficient machine which while suffering defeat to other teams, and dubiously so, will win the title for a second successive season, and at a canter no less. The Portuguese has had the funds of course but it would be churlish to assume a mediocre manager could have gained such outstanding rewards.
It is high time the world started treating Mourinho and his winning machine with respect. It may be hard but we have to give justice where due. Must we hate all those who give us a thrashing? Must we hate those who are proud of their achievements? Must we fail to honor the high-achievers just because they have a strong financial backing? It would sound comical and absurd if we do so.
The consolation prize for Mourinho and his dedicated players is, God willing, Chelsea will score a double this season, and who knows........................next season, the Champions League trophy may be added to the silverware. With this, Chelsea fans should stand tall and be counted, and let the haters lick their sore wounds!
