West Ham vs Chelsea POST-MATCH DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Barclays Premier League Saturday, 1st December 2012 Upton Park 12:45 Kick Off (UK time)

Just like RDM, why on earth did Benitez not use the last sub available to him?! Bring on Moses FFS!! Also, this is the 4th straight draw in the Premier League against Fulham and 5 in all competitions. I. Hate. Fulham.

As one of our previous managers used to say, "We're in a bad moment".

Comical Bale OG against Liverpool.

We need to win every match but rotation is still vital. And lets forget that Mikel will be going off for the AFCON in January and Romeu will need some game time to find his form so that he can do a good job for us when Mikel is away. You do not want Romeu to come into the team feeling rusty and in no form whatsoever!

Team: Cech ©; Azpili, Ivan, D Luiz, Cole; Ram, Rom; Hazard, Oscar, Bert; Torres. Subs: Turn, Fer, Cahill, Mik, Marin, Mata, Moses.

Desperately need a win tonight. No league wins in last 5(D3 L2) and have won just 2 of last 9 games in all competitions(W2 D3 L4). And here are some stats: 1. Chelsea have won just 50% of their last 12 Premier League meetings against Fulham - W6 D6. The last 3 have ended in draws. 2. Last time Chelsea beat Fulham was in November 2010 where a header goal by Essien gave the Blues a 1-0 win at Stamford Bridge. 3. Chelsea have kept just 2 clean sheets in 11 Premier League home encounters against Fulham, conceding 12 goals(and scoring 21). Also if anyone is interested, here's how this season league London derby mini league has looked so far:

Anthony Taylor. Ridiculous they didn't have more games or Everton v Arsenal last night. Villa v Reading and Sunderland v QPR yesterday were utterly dreadful!!

If anything, think I would kick Gourlay and Buck out first.

Some encouragement below perhaps... 1. Adriano maybe Shakhtar's main ST but Mkhitaryan & Teixeira has scored more goals than him this season - 18 and 11. He only has 10. 2. In the Champions League, Willian is Shakhtar's highest goalscorer with 4 goals and Adriano is sitting behind on 3. 3. Adriano may have been suspended vs Juventus but the Old Lady will also be missing Marchisio. Suspended. Have picked up 3 YCs in CL.

Top man. Would like to have seen him stayed last time, as you said there. I certainly wouldn't mind seeing take some sort of role at the club when he retires from management though IIRC, have read stories that he may well return to Holland and join one of the clubs there.

At times like this, you do miss the sides of Mourinho when he was here. Unfortunately, Roman wants us to the tiki-taka style of football.

Found this on Tumblr. Think it was his photoshoot for the Spanish GQ magazine. And what's with that face?!

Don't listen to the BS that is the English media! Hazard may not be the best defensively when tracking back but he has improved a lot on that recently than most people are giving him credit for. The English media like to turn a blind eye and conveniently exaggerate things about us especially when we are in a bad moment!

Unless Benitez wants to get the sack, he better play Hazard. He's one of our better players at the club even though he's not in great form.

Bah. Inter lost, again last night. Only Napoli took advantage of Juventus's loss then. Disappointing. Since ending Juventus's 49-match unbeaten run in Serie A, Inter Milan are winless in 3 league matches - D1 L2.

I think it's mainly because of his form at Lille last season before joining us, nothing much to do with his performances at us.

Benitez said after the Man City game that Lampard has no chance to feature in this game and doesn't think Sturridge will as well as both are still recovering from their respective injuries.

Why the "Rafa Out" movement is the height of stupidity Couldn't agree more with that article!
