He came over, chelseas best player 2 years running.

So He's worth more than that now.

And regarding Jose not liking him so there is something wrong, well he's not liked a fair few. Look at Lukaku?

I think he'll be a good signing. I think he's also a statement by the Glazers, Moyes and Woodward, and its not our weakest part. But we just simply have not scored enough. I've been to a few games and we've been fairly good until 20 yards out, then nothing.. he gives us that creativity.
I'm with Iain in this. Mata is a class player and has been consistently class. So he doesn't fit into Mourinho's brand of football? Good!
