MOURINHO HAS TO MAKE A DECISION...COURTOIS IS TOO GOOD TO PLAY SECOND-FIDDLE TO CECH

Courtois, TECHNICALLY a Mourinho soldier, may end up winning the La Liga and Champions League. And he has been one of THE best performers for Atletico. There is one thing being tall with long hands and a big reach, but to also be agile, have good reflexes and good handling...that my friends makes for an EXCELLENT keeper...which is what Courtois is.

If all goes to plan, Courtois goes back to Chelsea and he will have to be the understudy to Cech. Yes, CECH, the same guy who has fallen way off and is not the same kind of keeper he was when he first landed at Chelsea and was one of the best goalies in the world.

It would be MADNESS if Coutois is not put in as the number one keeper at Chelsea. Fact is, he is younger, sharper and just a better keeper than Cech is and I do feel for this Belgian kid worried about having to sit on the bench with Atletico. Mourinho would be wise to proclaim him as number one or he could just opt to stay with Simeone and the fairytale sage of Atletico.

Oh, and there's a certain tournament starting in a few weeks and if Courtois gets in ahead of Mignolet, and puts impressive displays, then there may be a few more cats rubbing their paws and cash notes together ready to yank him from Mourinho's clutches.
