http://www.zonalmarking.net/2012/02/22/napoli-3-1-chelsea-tactics/ We can see that AVB's tactics fail again... And get rid of Malouda FFS

Oh come on... Sturridge just needs to be disciplined and he'll turn into a better player (like Robinho under Allegri at AC Milan). He is not a CF. He can be part of 2 or 3 upfront but not alone - he doesn't have the physical or tactical ability. Also Napoli play with a central striker (Cavani) and 2 forwards (Hamsik, Lavezzi) so if we stay with 3 players upfront he could fit in.

Mad is starting with Malouda. And Meireles.

If we stick to 4-3-3 I think Piazon deserves a chance as AMC...but I would still buy a MC with technical abilities as competition for Ramires - he does run and tackle but he really lacks skills and brain. The other option is to let Mata play behind 2 strikers and buy another striker (I think Lukaku has to be loaned out). Also Hutchinson should be on the bench as backup DR for Ivanovic, Bosingwa and Paulo can retire in peace. And if Malouda starts one more game I think AVB needs mental treatment

Dude, starting the lineup with 3\3 incompetent midfielders EVERY MATCH is not trying to improve anything. And let's not get started about Bosingwa and the bench (where I feel Lukas Piazon and Hutch deserve a fair chance)

Yes, No. 17 Just think who our 17 is

Why is Bosingwa still on the pitch...Why god why.... What's wrong with Ivanovic-Cahill-Luiz-Cole? And besides that there are only 4 players on the bench... I fail to understand why Malouda, Ferreira and Mikel are still in the squad. Let Lukas and Hutch in

Petr Cech - KEEP - Not sure...He gets us points and loses them too, depends how well Courtois will do at ATM Michael Essien - KEEP - Need replacements as he is injured all the time Ramires - KEEP - Yes, but either on the bench or better players around him Fernando Torres - KEEP - Either send him to a shrink or kick him, this just can't go on. We need 2 top strikers in form. Didier Drogba - suitable replacements - Cavani yes, no more Porto players who haven't won the CL Romelu Lukaku - KEEP - Loan out !!! Agree with all the rest I also think a big problem we have is the mentality... If u look at Man U, Barcelona for example - from the 1st minute the players are running like crazy for the ball. We can just not do anything all the game (like the cup tie VS QPR) and the players will be fine with it... Big problem

What else needs to happen in order for AVB to kick Malouda out? Even the commentators are making fun of him... Sad joke

Ridiculous lineup. If we got Cahill he should play and not Bosingwa AKA walking hole in defence. As for Malouda he plays with less energy than Anelka on a bad day, no idea what's he's doing there either

What's up with Piazon then? Aren't they similar positions?

You said it all mate

WTF was going on on with the lineup and subs

I've seen almost every match Bruma played for us and he was terrible. I refuse to believe he's become a WC player in Hamburg, but if he is then he's surely welcome back http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xnwsib_hsv-vs-borussoa-doprtmund-1-5-goal-highlights_sport?start=267#from=embediframe I rest my case

Bruma is crap I'd release him for free

Bosingwa guilty again, can someone please buy a new DR to cover for Ivanovic ?

Besides the players, AVB might have to change tactics...We've been playing Mourinho's wonderful 4-3-3 for almost a decade, when the players aren't suited to it anymore - and all the other teams know how to defend against. I know that AVB played 4-3-3 at Porto so he's going on with it, but still...If the players can't turn it to the lethal form it was, maybe the tactic needs to change until we replace half of the squad. For example 4-4-2 diamond with Drogba and Torres upfront....or whatever

Every match Ivanovic isn't playing RB, you can bet that we concede 1 goal at least

Who cares about Mikel?

Can someone tell me WTF AVB is thinking? Great mgmt against city and now this?! Replacing Bosingwa (bad) with Ferriera-Zoro (worse)?! Sturridge off? Malouda on!? 23 goal attemps, 9 corners, 1 goal? You must be kidding

Get rid of Bosingwa immediately. He's responsible for loads of goals - no defensive ability, leaves a hold in right back the size of a crater on Mars. Branislav should stay DR but we need another CB (if Alex leaves)

Reminds me of Wilkins :|

Difficult draw...and I was kind of fond of Napoli too... No chance of winning in Italy, crazy atmosphere. We'll have to do the job at home

No way dude, Bosingwa is a walking hole in defence

When Sturridge missed before his goal AVB kicked the air so hard he almost fell...
