Wow, if he goes to Atletico, terrible move. I did say though, long before Mourinho arrived, that he's not a Mourinho player. He's not fit atm but still should get more game time.

I think it would be good for him, Atletico are a really good side and he would seriously improve them.

</small> Chelsea player Juan Mata has little playing time at his club because Chelsea coach Mourinho thinks he approached Barcelona this summer. [md]

Would be an ideal player for us, tbh. I guess if Alexis or Cesc move on next summer, Mata would be a great addition

Cesc is doing just fine here. Mata would play on the wing if he came here anyway.

Cesc needs to do more than just fine and certainly more than just have a nice Fall portion of a season. Mata could play on the wing and likely start more but the beauty of a midfielder who can slot in seamlessly with Xavi & Iniesta

Mata would provide a great back-up for Messi too... He would do well as a false 9! After all, he started as a striker!!

Stick him behind Messi and Messi would likely hit the treble figure mark. Mata's eye for a pass in the final third is astonishing. 30+ assists in a side that played Torres up front all season says it all.

Mourinho says he prefers Oscar.

Mourinho: “In this moment, Oscar is my No10 and, if somebody tells me that Oscar is not Chelsea’s best player since the beginning of the season, I’d have to disagree.”

Mourinho: “They can play together, yes, but when Mata adapts to it.”

Mourinho: “So I want to build with Oscar as my No 10. I want the other two players, from the side, to adapt to that reality and learn how to do things they were not ready to do before.”



Mourinho knows.

He could prefer Oscar for CAM but that doesn't mean he should bench Mata though! That rat should soon get fired
