All Done and Dusted?

Course he is, he could give a feck less about stuff like this bc he's a puppet clown that doesn't want to make waves. Hey Piazon shut your yap, do your talking to the players in person (hopefully he did, if not, quite out of line and cowardly) and not to the media. Who the feck is our PR guy/gal? Should be sacked along with the board. I think GabeU would support this given his stance on players yapping to the media.

@ForeverChels..you have me pegged exactly right..i absolutely detest the constant yapping of our players in the media..it is sickening and as i have said multiple times our club needs a formal written policy on this..one of these days it will really get us as a club into serious trouble not just mere embarrasment. @Mzee69 while i am against all players of ours yapping in the media it should be obvious to you why it is far worse for Piazon to be doing this than maybe Lamps..the reason is clear...one has actually done things of note for the club..some may say someone like Lamps has earned the right to yap (i happen to disagree) but a young pup like Piazon who has done absolutely nothing in a Chelsea first team shirt and arrived at Cobham like yesterday has to be very careful about opening his mouth to the media to badmouth his senior colleagues..that wont win him any friends and some of these vets can make life troublesome for him at Cobham..just a word of wisdom. That said, the truth is that he has a point because what he said was essentially repeated by Rafa himself in different words..namely that the Corinthians team wanted it more than our team..unfortunate but true.

And this was revealed a few hours after the stupid media broke the fake quotes...funny none of the media outlets reported this.

That statement still sounds more or less like he is saying we did not try hard enough to win the game. Foreign players always hide behind the it was lost in translation statement. However he is not wrong you could tell at the end of the game who it meant to more.

@zaput he is spot on, however, there are other ways to go about it (if the quotes are word for word). I am afraid he may have just alienated himself from the senior blokes. And the last thing we need is a division in the dressing room (assuming there is not one already).

So what's the plan? Get the players to stop talking to the media? Distance themselves from fans? How do we have an idea of their true feelings? So is it the players fault or lack of discipline from the staffs? This morning stories emerging from brazil revealed Rafa's tactical team sheet which was not properly disposed,revealed...http://www.101greatgoals.com/blog/leaked-pictures-emerge-of-rafa-benitezs-tactical-plans-for-chelseas-defeat-to-corinthians/......And people comparing Piazons fake quotes to the one on twitter probably didn't read the full interview. Piazon; “We lacked character and love for the shirt,” he said. “Nobody wanted to play. At least Oscar tried, I will not specify which players didn’t, but the team came unwillingly. You can’t get in to a final and be unwilling to play, that is unacceptable. They were missing the desire to be a champion. I think the Brazilian players, Ramires and David Luis, strove to the utmost and therefore are sad.” “He can not enter into a final without thinking about being in a final,” he added. “But I realised that David was ill. No wonder, he was one of the few who actually cared.”...the fake quotes sounded like a personal attack on his team mates,which is obviously not Oscar's nature. Its what the media do,they make your quotes come out worse than it actually is. On Saturday night after training Fernando Torres ignored the british media to grant some trusted spanish outlet an interview,which led to the british media outraged at his behavior. You won't blame the lad,and Piazon will learn to only grant interview to trusted media personnels.

One question for those justifying Piazon, Torres, Lamps or any of our players yapping to the press ..whether it be so called trusted or none trusted media sources. Look at the teams and players actually doing deeds of note in the BPL..look at ManUs players other than Rio how many of their players do you hear granting media interviews and tweeting nonsense..have you haeard a word from RVP, From Rooney, Welbeck, even chicarito, Kagawa? Look at city..other than the numbskull Ballotelli how many times have you heard arguero, Tevez, Yaya, David Silva etc yapping to the media. this is a serious problem and it reflects the lack of stable leadership, direction and policy at our club.

the second half at west ham and the second half against corinthians were both really worrying. now i'm worried about leeds, the team that shed 6 at home to watford less than six wks ago. how can we be so poor? i really dont see a quick fix either. worrying times indeed.

I don't think anyone should talk to the media after a match as abysmal as that. Taken out of context, in context, whatever. We got our a$$e$ bought, boxed, wrapped, sealed and sent to the whole world to see. Last thing we need(ed) is a player running on high emotion talking to the press. Just asking for trouble. Also, saw a quote where Franky said to the media that he wouldn't mind playing against Leeds. Hey Frank, love you to death m8, but keep it shut. Give that time to the lads instead.
