agreed my one concern is if Van Ginkel tracks that run Isco picks pass top of the box now Van Ginkel out of position and my second concern is why Terry doesn't attempt to head the ball kinda watches it go past him

thanks for posting the video.. when I watch the 3rd goal in match thread and post match I seen MVG take a lot of stick for not tracking ronaldo but where the ball was played the immediate danger wasn't ronaldo..it was the man that mvg stepped towards it looks as if terry and cole both got caught ball watching and ivan didn't do enough to block the cross.. maybe I'm wrong but take a look and view for yourselves

I wasn't calling out our midfield players I was actually backing them up.. maybe because my back ground as a DM/CB but I find the brunt of the blame always falls on that player the one who does all the grunt work but people fail to realize you can only play what you see.. I found all our combos of cm/cdm had no real outlets when we were trying to spring from defense to attack but that comes with time and more tactical instruction from manager.. I still think that this same team by mid season rolling will be a force due to the youth in the positions we have it and the experience in the positions that we have it... btw thanks for quoting me

imho i think the van ginkel ramires midfield has plenty of bite but everything else you said 1000% agree

honestly thats so true. Looks like that win at any cost BS wasn't Jose's at all

For me when watching the game when lamps or ramires(cm) MVG or KDB had the ball in midfield our attacking players were hiding behind the player marking them and not showing... we can't expect the mids to transition from defense to attack with no options presented... I honestly believe we are more than fine for the BPL with a combative two cm of MVG and ramires.. and lukaku is great and all but i see him as impact sub role a lot like moses.. cause torres had same service in second half and gave madrid more trouble.. but we can chalk that up to experience first time vs a team the quality of Madrid... All in all im very happy with the team we have and can't wait for Hull

the long ball always happens when a team plays high pressure against usits like our cb and keeper resort to just kicking out but causing us to be under pressure...first half two pens not called and hazard chance in second half the difference here.. i hope ppl now see we do need mata and luiz cause cahill and terry leak goals one has no pace and the other backs off his man to allow him to shoot

why do that when ppl say we need to sell luiz

surprising torres done very well

ref not helping protecting madrid players and our players swallowing his whistle

no luiz injured

well guys and gals looks like we have overbo brother reffing this game to clear penalties not given

god i live in north america and this is killing me hurry up.. im watching the toronto fc vs roma in the mean time ugh!

hes not starting

currently playing vs PSV second leg of champions league third round play offs

and how did terry or lampard become blue by giving their all for a decade.. but before our new players can make it there we are willing to sell them what kind of message is that to an incoming player if you sign for chelsea looking long term and the right price comes we sell you.. and thats not a fans projection of a players loyalty just as jose says he is a blue david and mata have said the same and even the " mercenary" hazard has come out saying things like that.. Just as you in a job look for job security so do players.. and if my employer is good to me at a reasonable rate of wage I am loyal to them but maybe that is just me

David has yet to say he wishes to leave this club and all these " supporters" saying he should be sold if right amount comes in... so if the right amount comes in for hazard or mata or de bruyne we sell them too cause that seems to be all that matters.. not what the player has helped our beloved club accomplish not the fact that he bleeds blue and loves being here.. I feel the people who are for this still have this notion that Luiz is liability which is in fact not true.. The current club captain picks Luiz to be Chelsea legend and captain clearly the players feel he is someone that should be around... My stance on Luiz to be sold is simple.. no way if other teams want him why don't we...

like this x 1 million.. ppl talking about MVG passing he picks his passes when to go long when to make a direct ball into attackers feet.. i'm really looking forward to more of ^^^^^

too his credit he did get up right after that and nutmeg the milan player

think it was just you his pass to oscar sprung hazard for the goal

They are refs from Major League Soccer

build up to first goal was good MVG to Oscar flick to Hazard dribble and pass to KDB = Goal!!! :blue scalf: I could get very used to that

man game is about to start and I am still stuck at work..going to miss kick off
