Closed Chelsea 1-1 Burnley

[thehappyone 140]

Some are saying the ref cost us some say matic, what cost us the game was those idiot racists on the paris train, we were never going to win this game

[stroey 2,525]

Can't believe some of you guys are blaming the players, Matic or Mourinho for the result. "We should have finished it earlier". "They should have scored more than 1". "We were poor". "Poor tactics" "Matic cost us the match". "It was just bad refereeing, we've been playing poor lately"

Guess no one who said this have ever played a sport or competive game.

- Barnes came in with 2 flying kicks, nothing happened

- 2 penalties denied, but if we'd scored at least one of those 2 pens which completely changes the game.

- clear corner/fouls not given.

- horror tackle, nothing happened.

- Matic gets a straight red for a reaction on a career ending foul

- plus the decisions in the previous games accumulated, we haven't had a penalty since November.

What would you feel if you were on the pitch? Angered but completely powerless.

We played the best game since a long time especially the 2nd half, the second goal was always coming. But FA didn't let us win, they will do everything to stop us and let City win it.

Some of you should stop playing the down to earth one and being so naive, this campaign is so clear that even a 3 yo old sees it.

I would not want to be in the club's position now, invested billions in the club but finding out you are playing against the organizer of the competition. Knowing they are making fun of you as a club behind the scenes. I bet they all have a secret well filled bank account in Qatar or anywhere else.

But we are dependent on these bunch of twats because we can't just quit or jump to another league.

It's like doing business in a corrupt land after you've invested all your and your family's money, just finding out you'll never get a fair treatment and being played by the government. You can't quit because you will lose everything, but how can you go on knowing there is no justice?

We should seal the win way before Matic was sent off.

This. We had ample opportunities between HT and Matic's red to go 2 or 3 up and didn't.

At the end of the day, we have ourselves to blame. Decisions went against us yesterday, but they didn't stop us beating Burnley at home. We created a few openings, but we weren't good enough.

We'll have to turn up next Sunday, if we want to win our first trophy of the season.

More and more I feel that red card was a symptom of this bullshit age of political correctness we live in..

Matic nearly getting his ankle snapped doesn't matter, but him pushing Barnes to the floor warrants a red card because it was viewed by many and sets a bad example to kids..

And I won't be surprised if the FA show their hypocrisy in the matter... "Technically" Matic did commit a breach of conduct..but they had no trouble throwing technicalities out of the window when it came to Costa 'stepping on' the legs of Liverpool players

I hope matic is only suspended for 1 game

FA trying to pull interest in the title race again. I'm convinced that the league isn't fair anymore

Sometimes nothing goes in. It happens. The same happened at Boro yesterday, they were the better team and still nothing went in.

We pressed really well, we must of had 10 chances on goal, and when the ref didn't even card Barnes for that tackle Matic took he understandably lost his shit.

Burnley didn't deserve the point.

[cosmicway 1,247]

Diego Costa was clearly pushed.

But they say the referee did not see the Burnley player using his arms.

So it's not a pen when the attacker is in possession and the defender uses his elbow on him from behind to bring him down !
New theory.

Surprising lack of swear words considering I can imagine how angry you are right now (similar to most of the rest of us).

Go wherever the alcohol is, always helps!

Took the advice and went with the alcohol. Was a good idea at the time, feeling the effects now though

Good man! A full English will help with that now as well!

[AndersonBLUE 819]

disgusting game, i still think we will win the league we just need to get shit back on track and win convincingly before shit decisions go agaisnt us in tight games (1nil leads... draws etc)

[simon_me 38]

You can't blame Chelsea for the draw - terrible referee, 4 bad decisions, and we're lucky that Matic is not seriously injured (what a terrible tackle! FA must ban him for that!). 1 point is not as bad, we are still behind City.

ps Can anyone have a link to a video, where Mourinho talks about match in a Sky studio?

Burnley was one of the poorest sides that visited the Bridge this year, if not the poorest.

One shot on target early in the second half - the deflection parried by Courtois. Then one more after the sending off (save by Courtois, corner kick - goal in the continuation).
Chelsea's enemies were Atkinson - extremely poor finishing - Matic.

Matic was a fool. Even if the other one kicked him in dead time and not during play he had no business to retaliate.

If you ask me this is how Matic should have reacted:
