According to "the special one" he's not that good - eating your words again are you Jose?

Coming from the bloke who bought Kenedy, I'd say Mourinho is losing/lost his marbles

His vision and his speed of thought was really impressive. I can't wait to see how he settles down.
Spot on. Kev's pas selection and pace were excellent. He's hit the ground running so settling down isn't an issue!
I think that Kenedy looks a very good player, he is certainly not where Chelsea's problems lie. I watched the full Chelsea game yesterday and they look shot for whatever reason. Having a manager who blames everything and everyone rather than keeping quiet and resolving things internally will not be helping. They are ponderous at the back. Because of this there is a gap between their defence and midfield as the defence sits too deep. Mourinho tried to combat this by having Matic and Mikkel sitting but that gave them a total vulnerability out wide. They just have lost the solidity and don't seem to know how to combat it yet.
Kev looked very good I thought and we seem to have bought well this summer. He offers a directness that we do not have elsewhere in the squad and again that adds balance. I cannot think of an area of the team now that looks deficient. We will know more though when we play against the hard pressing game in the CL that we have previously really struggled against.

Oh I don't know, seems a bit churlish to me that, we did after all just won away to the team in second place in the league, with a lot of our players injured, I am happy with what the manager has done in every one of our 5 clean sheet wins this seasonShould have started yesterday with one striker up top

Looks like he will settle very quickly. Great vision and execution to put Navas in. More of the same please.

I thought De Bruyne was excellent yesterday, he won back possession numerous times tracking back and getting tackles in, looked really confident too.
A decent start to his City career.
