If Mourinho thinks they don't need Mata I'd trust Mourinho. I wouldn't bet against him. Chelsea have a ridiculous midfield and they're mostly youngsters that are getting better each game. Hazard is twice as good this season. Mata is brilliant but it's evident Chelsea don't need him. United can ill afford to have spent £50+ Million on two players that didn't perform so I hope for their sake Mata does well. I thought Mourinho had gone insane when he signed Eto'o but it was a free signing and the bloke became the 5th player to score 3 past United in the EPL...
Anyone that thinks Mourinho still wants that job, I doubt it. After being apparently turned down I can imagine someone like Mourinho snubbing them if they came asking just out of bitterness.
Third point then and onto whether Chelsea actually need Rooney? Nope. It's evident he'd make the first team on name alone. Torres makes the first team despite Demba Ba outscoring him in all three previous seasons. If Demba Ba changed his name to Demba Rooney it would be a different story. Romelu Lukaku looks better than Rooney, Torres and Ba so it answers itself.
