Second one Oscar should've put away.
-
Oscar really needs to put that away ffs.
-
Not very good examples because both players have not played that much since the turn of the year, unlike someone like Hazard, Terry or Matic.
-
Cahill is awful. Ffs.
-
If only Matic wasn't on that yellow. Ramires is holding it down though.
-
The game is stretched, we need to bring on pace. Cuadrado please.
-
Because even though he's playing bad he can still come up with a moment for us to win the game. Simple.
-
Possibly but I trust Fabregas to come up with an assist or moment of magic much more than I trust Oscar to.
-
Well it's certainly not fitness. The intensity has improved massively since the start of the second.
-
@Barbara - this is what I meant by Mourinho not putting our best players in the right conditions to perform. Mourinho has obviously made tactical changes - we're playing the line higher, pressing a lot more. Now we can see Costa and Hazard really enjoying themselves and Cesc who has been bad is slowly getting into it.
-
Look how much better we look now we're actually trying to take control of the game.
-
He had to take Matic off. Can't slate Jose for this one.
-
Awful start to the second but we're being more proactive, higher line etc... Changes have been made tactically, I'm happy with that.
-
He's not having a good game, I agree, but it isn't only him I'm talking about. I'm talking about the situation overall.
-
He does, but he also needs to be put in the right environment for him to do such. That is not the case right now.
-
Zouma and Luis should be playing. Oscar shouldn't be starting either IMO. It's not only that, it's the fact that Hazard, Matic, Fabregas and Costa are all struggling to play well atm too. It's a combination of things.
-
Well, when both of our creative outlets are being snuffed out of the game (Hazard + Cesc), there's only one person you have to look to IMO.
-
OR our manager can just admit that his tactics aren't working and certain players aren't performing, and that he isn't using our best players in the best possible way.
-
I would take off one of our full backs (probably Ivanovic) and put on Luis, get our RB to stop bombing forward as they're killing us on that side. Take off Oscar who is beyond useless and give Willian some time in the middle. Give Cuadrado a proper run at RW, they're exposed there.
-
Can we get a proper RW on, move Willian centrally and stop letting our RB bomb forward? Surely Mourinho can see that we're being exposed there?
-
We're not getting our best players on the ball in the right positions, Costa is not being fed, no runners off the ball for Fabregas, Hazard is way too deep and has no support. Awful stuff.
-
Being outplayed at the Bridge again.
-
For their penalty, look how Cahill backs off before the 1-2. Guaranteed Zouma wouldn't have allowed it.
-
It's awful how irrelevant he is to our game going forward. Even his press game isn't good anymore. He's honestly looking more and more like the new Mikel as the season progresses.
-
Our right side is getting roasted. Really exploiting Ivanovic.
