Exactly in the end I wonder if we'd have scored had they not hacked us down every time we attacked.

Half and half tbh :lol:

I told you it would make no difference unless it was a player revolt, which judging from tonight it was not. Sorry, not sorry.

So, who's ready to admit sacking Jose was a bad decision?

Sorry but John Terry so far has been MOTM But that's good defending, to a point. A low line is if you don't step up at all.

Injured

Do you define a high line as just behind the half way line or between the 18yd line and half way line because if it's the first then it's not going to happen.

They have just cut us down nearly every time we have attacked the first 10 mins aside it hasn't been that bad

He actually saved Zouma from an almost certain goal with a tackle which seems not to have been noticed. Other than that nothing of note.

We are holding a high line but ok

JT just saved our arses twice in 2 minutes, once by telling pedro to come back and mark and then just now

lol still blaming this on Mourinho

Getting worried now...

Pedro might be the striker. That's an assumed position

Yeah him and Griezmann would work excellently I'd imagine. Him and Costa might not...

I would disagree, I think Zouma-JT was our best pairing but that's probably the blue glasses. I wouldn't, no, we need his leadership still and Varane-JT would still be the best pairing we could field imo. Everybody. EVERYBODY was awful against City. WBA was a harsh red card and Watford the first goal was a Matic hand ball pen and the second was from memory not JT's fault...

I'm a stubborn mother fucker and even I know we need him back here. Need that target man up top.

He has been fine. Not excellent, but fine. The fucking wheels are falling off all around him, I'm not really sure what you are expecting. Plus as Ossie said for me he is the last bit of pure Chelsea left in the squad. Now that Jose, Drogs, Cech, Lamps are all gone I don't think we can afford to get rid of him.

Was he a sort of anti-Lionsden then?

This. The emphasis is on pace and power in England, always has been and always will be. Technical players will give you a chance in the CL but if they can't ride a tackle like Hazard can then you will not be successful.

The ball from Willian was absolutely fantastic too.

false 9 for us then if Remy and Falcao aren't fit? Courtois Azpi Zouma JT -lb- Cesc Matic Oscar RLC Willian Pedro?

I'd imagine JT will see out Cahill because he has the advantage of being a legend of the club and being a better CB.

Because people think they know better than the coach.
