i think if Salah is given the chance to play at the same time with Fabrigas and Costa several games he will connect well with them...especially with Fab as he needs a quick guy for the 1-2 and Salah is doing it naturally inside and outside the box

thanks

excuse my ignorance...any idea why is the game date that far..and no match this weekend ?

Source ? anyway why not...instead of sitting idle on the bench or not even being selected for the games

a runner such as...?

Well Said

I think Salah looked smarter / sharper with good decision making tonight during the few minutes he played and linked well with his team mates

Chelsea wins against good teams only I hope they will break the rule this time

Decent skills as LAM09 said...however playing in Europe is different, I wish him good luck

I hope so...blaming referees is just distracting from the real reasons..yes maybe the referee made couple of mistakes...but we have been making mistakes during most of the game..and we didn't prove we are strong enough to deserve a win regardless of refereeing

a positive i find after this game: there is still lot of work to be done !

agree all players - old and new - need to get into the system...I am just wondering if the system itself needs to be revisited in terms of speed and room for creativity

IMO there is no MOM We are the MOM for watching this poor game

Felt the team is a bit relaxed at the beginning of the game. We didn't look dangerous. We made their defenders tired only towards end of the game. Our game is quite predictable. I feel we need to be more aggressive and quicker.

if this is our performance when we play defensive (3 goals defeat) what more if we play offensive..

why do we take it easy with teams of this level, and only take it seriously when playing against top PL teams

i don't get it...Costa off ? when can we see Costa with Didier & Fab...

we need a beast on the front line like Drogba...with Costa, Fab, Hazard or Salah I think we will be more dangerous

yes defence needs to improve, but having Drogba should put more pressure on their defence and CM which should reduce pressure on Chelsea's defenders...

put Drogba instead of Torres you will see a totally different team

I disagree. Generalizing by saying "he is Spurs or Everton level" is not an accurate nor fair statement. He has scored 3 times in Chelsea's net in both Champ. L & Europa L. And he has scored few goals in the few games he has played for Chelsea so far. Yes he has to improve some skills, but at this point in time and at this age he has sufficient skills to be considered a a very promising player for Chelsea and for any other top European team in England, Spain, or Germany. He just needs to improve his finishing.

Regarding his kicks, I think he needs to improve both: accuracy and power

I wish if he can build some muscles around his core / torso , that may give him more stability and control when in challenge situations against defenders, thinking of players with similar body height but they looked stronger such as Maradona & Arjen Robben
