Fegurson won 13 EPL titles by making attacking subs in difficult games and converting 1 point to 3. I'll take that from mourinho over benitez putting azpi for ivanovic any day of the week. Mourinho did a good job motivating his players for a whole month in october, and they got complacent and thought it was just newcastle and put no energy in that match.(lack of spirit) Even the stats support the fact that none of our players were willing to fight for 50-50 balls. The fact that oscar had more tackles(5) than (iva, cole, ramires, lampard, mata, hazard) combined(4) says all you need to know about the attitude the players came into that match with. Meaning they just let newcastle run free along the park without tackling them or stopping them.(I'm sure you saw how cole let sisoko run free to almost score and was just strolling back, coach cant stop that terrible attitude during the game) We hit the bar twice, terry effort was cleared off the line, willian, hazard missed clear cut chances, eto missed 2 open chances. So this match could have gone another way if we were clinical. But it was so evident that the players were too relaxed in their play, especially in the first half playing exactly like how we did a lot last seasons ("lets just keep passing and the goals will come") naive attitude.
