When did I say about his performance of the first half ? Are you shortsighted ? To post that Schurrle is not good enough for Chelsea only a dimwit may say it & that´s what I was referring to.
Everybody knows Hazard is the key to Chelsea´s success. Therefore, as you pointed the smarter managers double him. Then, Chelsea is cooked. Thank God he was so good in most games & Chelsea were able to prevail.
Hopefully, Chelsea´s players are well rested for tomorrow. According to what I have read, they landed in London yesterday at 4 a.m. This is ridiculous. Despite of it, I expect nothing but a win tomorrow.
Since Mancini was correct, Gala must show respect to Chelsea & I even feel not enough respect was seen, your team should consider themselves lucky for not being hammered in the first half. Mancini is no match for Jose & never will.
The way I saw it. Chelsea side managed a draw. Mission accomplished. Perhaps, lack of cutting edge we might say here by Chelsea again ? It was not the first time that Chelsea have paid for failing to kill off teams. The team had five chances & scored one goal. Despite of it, Chelsea got a very acceptable result in a stadium where it´s difficult to play. I am happy with it. Looking for Drogba to have the best reception of his life in London.
