Arsenal fan: Mourinho’s arrogance cost Chelsea their title
Take a moment to smile at the arrogance of Jose Mourinho and that little twerp Ashley Cole.
2 Years ago they decided to go behind Arsenals backs and have a secret meeting. Cole denied the meeting and Jose showed his true colours by blatantly lying to the world! “I have never met the boy. I was in Milan at the time.”
Less than a week later the truth came out and suddenly everything was Arsenals fault. We suffered the following season and Cole and Jose didn’t help by constantly talking to the media about Wenger and the club. Wenger was called a voyeur and so much more.
The season ended on a high for us with a small matter of a CL final to play and we witnessed a lack lustre un inspired performance by Cole. His time was clearly up and we knew he would go. None of us wanted him to go to Chelsea but when it was clear that no other team wanted him, (Who can blame them?) Chelsea was the only destination.
Once again though they showed their true colours by not coming to the party with the money. They held all the cards, all we had was a turd of a player that needed to go. Chelsea refused to budge and as the transfer window came to a close it was desperation time. Chelsea had a player that didn’t want to be at SB anymore in Gallas. A swap deal was negotiated + 5 million to Arsenal. Jose was furious because everything was done at the last minute, leaving him no time to replace Gallas.
Arsenal fans asked the question: Who got the better deal?
Well. Cole would have added nothing extra to Arsenal this season points wise. I don’t think he could have done any better than Clichy. Gallas had a stop start season for us but contributed when he did play, but probably didn’t bring in a wow factor.
Cole brought nothing special to Chelsea and that was proven each and every time Bridge played. As a matter of fact I think Bridge played a better game all around.
Chelsea suffered defensively a lot this season. There is no doubt that Gallas was sorely missed. Had Gallas remained at Chelsea would they have conceded as many goals? It’s difficult but Chelsea fans called him their best defender over Terry.
Personally I have no doubt now that Arsenal got the better deal. Yes Gallas hasn’t had the best season for us, but his move definitely had a negative affect on Chelsea. Even cost them their title?
I wonder If Jose realises that two years ago when he arranged to meet with Cole he was plotting his own downfall. Perhaps he will be at SB next season but if not could that one move be enough to convince Abramovich to push him out?

Chill out mate, are you still angry for Cole’s deal? It’s been a year ago, and, as you’ve just said, he wouldn’t have contributed much for Arsenal. So why are you so angry? Probably you don’t believe what you have written and want somebody to prove you this?…
May 10th, 2007 @ 16:07Gallas will play better next season as he has been hampered by his injuries. So there is room for improvement there.
Clichy is a much better player than Cole was at this stage of his career.
So Arsenal got the better deal of the two.
May 10th, 2007 @ 16:21Both will playing better next season.
May 10th, 2007 @ 16:35axrosel I love the fact that you took the time to at least read the first parragraph. But angry at Cole? You better believe it but you probably wouldnt understand what it feels like to have a homegrown player, a childhood fan, a future captain, a fans favourite, betray us the way Cole did!
The article though was a season in the making, weighing up who got the better deal.
Simple – Arsenal did. The deal cost Chelsea their title.
May 10th, 2007 @ 17:16common, i understand it’s not a good feeling, but the whole article looks like an effort to lick your wounds. I mean, you’ve tried to weigh up who got the better deal, but the result you’ve got only speaks up your hard feelings. Sorry mate, that’s only my lightweight opinion…
May 10th, 2007 @ 17:59Fair enough. I wont deny I hate the little turd, but I think the reasoning behind the maths is pretty sound.
May 10th, 2007 @ 18:07I can agree with that.
May 10th, 2007 @ 18:17cashley is stupid, he is a pathetic wimp and is extremely lucky(i.e Cheryl tweedy). He betrayed his club for 5grand, he could one day have been the next paolo maldini(homegrown player, a childhood fan, a captain, a fans favourite A LEGEND FOR ARSENAL). He gave up respect and authority for 5 thousand pounds extra a week. But like the little fool says “it was only five grand, dunno wat the fuss was about”. Well done chelsea, 500million quid well spent, thanks jose for all the laughs you gave me and the rest of the lads and laddettes during the season.
May 11th, 2007 @ 07:01Jose mourinho says if arsene wenger was at chelsea he’d be fired by now, bcos of a lack of silverware, well lets get things in perspective, arsene wenger is a legend at arsenal FC(it has more history than chelski),he is a legend in english football and a legend all around the world. he is not a puppet who is told who to sign(remember shevchenko&ballack),he wasnt lucky enough inherit player who were at their prime (lampard&terry)and he diddnt have a blank chequebook on his desk.He made arsenal FC great, he used resources adequately,he had to make do with what he had. Lets go back to january, in contrast, jose had crippling injuries to his squad,his chairman for the first time ddnt give him money, he whinged like a little girl, he couldnt manage, he lost the title and the ChampsLeague and is about to lose the FA Cup (if he was true great he’d have managed some how). Arsenal had key players out during their unbeaten season through lengthy suspensions(battle of old trafford)and injuries. Finnally…what im trying to say is the guy aint a bad manager but he will never be a great manager bcos he has no class he is too personal and too naive, he never thinks things through and is loses his temper like an old woman.
May 11th, 2007 @ 07:18Utter wank from an utter wanker on a wank website.
Above average though.
May 11th, 2007 @ 08:18Let us make a bit of sense out of :JM arrogance cost chelsea their titl” So you mean the other two EPL titles Chelsea won was because JM was not arrogant. Well make up your mind which one JM is: arrogant or not arrogant. If Coles is not good why all you Arsenal fans are so bitter about him. It sound like a touch of raw nerve for Arsenal and its supportrs, Whenever Cole is mentioned
May 13th, 2007 @ 03:51we’re annoyed with cole bcos he betrayed our club, the fans and then tried to deny it and then when the little fool was found GUILTY, he tried to blame anyone and everyone else for his stupidity, but we’re not envious of chelsea for buying him, he fits in well with the rest of the retarded fools and their “supporters”. Lets see how many of the “best supporters in the world” are still left when the russian leaves and chelski are in financial meltdown.
P.S Sid you little girl, when u diss some1 its best to explain why they are “a wanker”. if this website is so bad why are u on it, shows ur intelect. SID is a FOOL (like gayboy cole and the rest of the chelski players management and owner)
