Of course nothing is guaranteed, but we offered little attacking threat and we had a few chances where another striker might have nicked a goal, would have changed the whole game. Not blaming Torres entirely, 9 other players (except Cech) also didn't turn up, just think if we had a true goal scorer, we would do better and not struggle so much when other players have an off game...

Oscar had one poor game... As for his defensive abilities he works hard and had done a great defensive job in previous games. It's a new system, it's not FIFA or FM, it will take time to iron out the kinks and Shaktar can say what the fuck they like, if we had a striker of any quality, we could have won that game... Instead we have the super Spanish flop, who even manages to tackle himself, spends more time on his back than a cheap whore and has all the physical presence of a 5yr old boy...

I love our transfers Whatever else happens, it's never dull supporting Chelsea

Excellent point about our defending of crosses. We defend too narrow and allow the ball into the box - this is bad!!! If we don't address this we will be punished

Exactly, distinctly average = Kalou

He showed enough promise in the pre-season to warrant a run of games. He also knows how to score, something Hazard could learn So Marin, Yes he should play ASAP and should always be on the bench if not playing...

Falcao or Villa... Still think Falcao.... How's that for a debate

Just a juke, always thought there were one too many 'O's and U's in your name... The C--t sounds better

Lessons learned: 1) Start with full concentration 2) we do have some younger experienced guys, this was a good game to put behind them 3) changing team unsettled something and injury didn't help to lamps. 4) they have some amazing brazilians and a great team and work ethic, hard to beat. Could have been worse 5 or 6 from them if not for Cech... NOW WE NEED TO BOUNCE BACK at the weekend...

Goals change games simple! They have a half chance and scored. Game changed... Torres missed a few - game stays as it was. They score again, game changes.. We score, game changes Again now in our favour... So if Torres would have scored at least 1 of his 3 or 4 half chances, would have been a different game... Also blame our coaching staff, poor analysis of the opponent - defended too narrow ...

1) we met a well organised settled squad of brazilians 2) we tinkered with a formation lost a goal then a player to injury 3) golden balls had his shit boots on tonight 4) we couldn't score with a briefcase of money in a brothel 5) we waited for ages to change anything 6) tv off - going to sleep, losing sucks... Enough for ya?

Yup it's gonna happen. Now the key thing is how we respond at Man U... Sturridge has to start at Utd, he just looks MILES better... Think after watching Torres for so long, we've forgotten what a striker can do...

Lol We couldn't score in a brothel tonight... Oh well one of those games... Smash em at the bridge... Borscht eating cuntz

Biscuits for Ramires We should buy him

2nd tough test and we have failed - like Atletico all over again... Torres needs to fuck off, waste of a ball, passing to him... We DO NEED to sort our fucking defending though its awful... Also, it is still a new team and will take time, these guys we are playing are a well established team... Hazard - learn to shoot FFS.... Someone posted that in the summer and got slaughtered, how correct he was

Wish Marin was on the bench, his kind of game... Torres should be subbed, he's absolutely fucking useless... Where's those 'we don't need Falcao' posters now... Yeah fucking thought so... Silence....

Poor performance all round... They are a well organised Team. This is a big test, Oscar needs to keep playing, eventually it will work. In my opinion RDM shouldn't have tinkered with the team... Why change a winning formula? Oh well 2nd half, we should score draw wouldn't be that bad

Wow some amazing Overreactions to Biscuits... Yes he dives, nearly ALL Barca and La Liga players do - its the nature of the league, game in that country... He WILL NOT be able to do that in England... Maybe that's another reason for wanting to leave? He's a young lad of great skill, maybe he wants to transform his image... I mean play acting probably seemed a good idea at the time, but hindsight is a wonderful thing. Who else can say they never made bad decisions in their youth?

We would be amazing with him - unbelievable in fact... Another thread linking us to Busquets... Those 2 signings could be amazing. Yeah Busquets has some issues, but we can sort them

Signing him and Falcao would be amazing... Don't worry about his previous rep, the boys will sort that out Him + Mikel = awesome....

Yup, I think it's taken a big burden off his shoulders and he can now play with less pressure, which is amazing, instead of being relied on to do everything... Long may it continue... Would still love to see Marin get a Cameo appearance...

There were big scares before that season too, remember Flo bailing us out in an easy game, Watford springs to mind, but its late, been drinking - someone will correct me if wrong

Replace Torres with Falcao - that is mouth watering

LMAO @ City - they are going to collapse soon - cant see all those players staying happy....

Also Sunderland are garbage (relegation candidates) - Sessignon has FINALLY been taken off - he's absolute shit... Glad we didnt sign Johnson - he's been useless too... Think it'll end up 1-0 to Newcastle....
