closed Chelsea 1-1 Stoke

[Wizacar 93]

Courtois cannot buy a clean sheet to save his life. Pretty obvious that pasg will score against us. just hope we have the players and the legs to defeat them. Pretty stupid subs from hiddink today. Remy offered nothing and cesc for matic was pretty retarded. We had the midfield closed and opened it with tat sub

Just glad i didn't watch the match

[Jase 43,479]

1. Great goal by Traore!

2. Clattenburg or Cuntenburg? Blatant penalty and red card ignored

3. No 4 straight wins. That was obviously too much to ask for was it?

4. No clean sheet at home again. Last one was back in November!

5. A home draw at home again. Last 6 matches - DDDDWD. ONE win against a hopeless Newcastle side!

6. Hiddink has some made really 'curious' subs of late. Annoying.

[FabHazard 655]

terrible subs..don't know why he took off hazard...

Second half we should have shown more composure on ball ..instead of panicking and hoofing...sat too deep!!

Very Poor.

Oscar is shit as usual.

Tibo is weak this season.

What are you going on about mate? Was it not for Courtois, we would concede more than 1 goal today... He has been excellent today.

[Alan Partridge 1,124]

Same old shit 

we ain't getting 4th anyway so no bother. 

[cfcs most wanted 657]

Anyone is sensible to understand that while defending you don't bring on Fabregas for Matic

not imo sry... he made 1 good save from shaqiri and 1 bad mistake at their goal.

against norwich too...

This little guy Imbula should be in the team in blue instead of those muppets Matic, Mikel or Oscar. It is not that this forum had imbula on its screens for ages now. Why can't the fucking board see that this kind of mobile, combative, yet technically gifted DMs is what we need in modern football?

 

As for the game the usual stuff when being refereed by Clattenburg. Been the better team throughout but let down by his calls. Stoke still are a fine team, too. Some great football from them and resilience in defence. Wollscheid was a wall today.

 

From us it was a below-par performance. clearly brakes on because of the CL tie. However, I can't see us progressing since we will definitely concede at least once. But back to this game. Mikel, Matic, Ivanovic, Remy, Willian and Oscar were their usual average selves whilst Traore scored an amazing goal. Hazard, Courtois can really do better, Azpi and Cahill were solid.

Yeah but the one and only goal we did concede was largely his mistake. He punched the ball back directly into the danger zone - something which he has a knack for.

Id give Begovic a run of games, Tibo does amazing that acts like a retard. Too many times this season.

Oscar....die....

Cannibalisms with the mind on Wdnesday.

Wilian was the trigger for the Stoke goal. Lost the ball in transition and a dangerous area, Tibo should've done better to push the ball further away though. Disappointing.

 

Yep; both were almost equally at fault for the goal. Willian is a least somewhat understandable, as he beats his man more often than not in those situations, but Courtois has always displayed a worrying tendency to parry balls/shots back into the danger-zone (even when on top form); it's definitely something he needs to work on. Anyway, it was a shame for them both, because aside from this they were probably two of our better players today. Costly errors are costly errors, though.

Matic remains THE huge concern, however (moreso than Hazard); he's just completely lost in this team at the moment.

[Wizacar 93]

baba is also a retard. Ake shd take his place next season. i hate fullbacks who are attack minded and defensively Naive. Baba fits that category. Cant wait for dave back on the left.Oscar is a udelsess footballer

Azpi solid?!? Wtf? He was getting run through faster than knife through hot butter

[chrismada9 1,948]

Yet another dispicable, disgraceful, abysmal and shameful show-up by our lot, at a time where points are vital to push for European places!

Matic and Oscar were atrocious again! I really hope they both get sold after this season.. those two continue to get on my nerves!

Ruben didn't particularly have a good game either, but there were reasons for this. He didn't have enough time as a sub to really pick us up, and while Stoke were dominating us everywhere. Particularly Imbula, he was impeccable! What an absolute steal he was for them!

After today, that's the first time Stoke have won any point at Stamford Bridge, and now Hiddink has gone 12 games unbeaten domestically, but too many of those games are draws and that's what's slowing everything down! Unless our European spirit is hotter than our domestic one, I don't see us overturning our 2-1 deficit against PSG, and I most certainly don't see us getting into Europe next season if we keep playing like this!

FUCK THIS SEASON UP THE ASS!!!

Begovic let in some really soft goals when he played, he was cut a bit of slack because well you can't expect the back up to be amazing but still.
