Respectfully, I find it unbecoming to pounce on Lukaku after for not having scored one game. I thought he had a decent performance despite getting no service and you cannot deny he was definitely weighing on their defence. Imo, he has the skill, a kick-ass mentality and a heart that pumps blue blood. What more can you want?

Since the current situation defies all logic and there really is no rational justification, I'll just say this: Eva Carneiro, ladies and gentlemen; Eva Carneiro... The woman who brought down Mourinho's empire! She must have been having an affair with Hazard and the latter is now deliberately underpreforming until M is out ... Who's with me?

Form is temporary, class stays!! As bad as we feel right now, the offensive players will regain their form eventually. In my opinion, the only thing we structurally have to improve is our defence. Let's do damage control until winter, splurge on reinforcements and then come out all guns blazing...

Stones... What a monster!!! Also, bring back Eva! This shit started happening after she was removed - our lucky charm...

This is the shit...

O, you misunderstood! Fabregas in my mind would anyway always play next to Matic and behind Willian/Oscar. Ibrahimovic would in fact be a bit much but having a top-class alternative to Costa when he's out of form/out injured can never harm, right?

Biggest signing since Hazard for me if this comes through, on a par with what Reus would have meant... Him on the right wing will be exactly the kind of ointment to cure the throbbing Achilles heel that our attack has become. Doubters will just ... eat their words in some weeks andquietly set off to hate other things Rejoyce brethren! Rejoyce! If Rahman turns out to be any good then we can bring Ivanovic to the center and let that debacle end. Then, to top it all, we just have to add Ibrahimovic to the squad to become the foie gras of football once again... Oy yeah, Cuadrado and Mikel to buzz off then, please.

WE . NEED. INCOMING. TRANSFERS. For fuck sake!

Same as everybody, I guess. A top central defender to compete with Cahill, improvement in CM for Mikel and Ramires and a top RM/CAM! The most exhilirating incoming transfers for me would be Varane, Witsel and Pedro or Reus. Not that much meat on the market, though, so realistically I think we'll have to lower our expectations. At the same time it's true that we can't go on a spending spree each year... or can we ?

I'm kind of worried though that we've done pretty poorly in the transfer-department so far, without any real assets set to join us... whereas our direct opponents have strengthened their squads considerably. Cech joining Arsenal btw is the biggest worry for me... We just bolstered the one department that failed them in their titles races time and time again last seasons (defence) by handing them a point-winning keeper. Bring on the reinforcements please !!!

also Hazard's passing is very hit and miss

Yeah, this game really was all about missed chances givin them the chance to sneak in

Begovic is a JOKE

seriously, begovic

On a different note, I have a hell of an important meeting in the morning at work. But f it... It's CHELSEHHHH

De bruyne>Schurrle>Salah>Cuadrado... Willian aside, our RW policy has been really poor imo

Belgian squad and formation that in my mind will win the European Cup: Courtois Alderweireld Vermaelen Kompany Vertonghen Witsel Naingolan KDB Januzaj² Hazard³ Benteke/Origi * * against the weaker oppositions that park the bus, Lukaku against the top teams ² Switched by Mirallas ³ Switched by Mertens Other subs to play a role : Fellaini, Dembele, Denayer, Praet, T.Hazard, Van den Borre

You also predicted that hazard would prove to be massively overrated guess you proved us all wrong there

May I inquire as to what team you play(ed) for? You once mentioned you train goalkeepers?

If Torres was a match, this would have been him... Really disliked our performance today

Half time now - hasn't received the ball from anyone and the game has been atrocious... Better fix it, JOSE!

Good goal. But seriously ... I don't know what the f*ing problem is but NO ONE is passing the ball to Hazard. Needs some serious addressing in the break.

Frank frickin Lampard ...

So yea, Matic is the player that will make or break our title chances. I do think that Mikel did the best he could, with good possession holding, but creatively he adds nothing in attack and that was the difference today. And of course, this loss has fatigue written all over it. I think we can all agree that our A squad holds the best players, but you just can't expect them to keep playing games every three days and emerge victorious. A tired Hazard is (probably) worse than a fit Salah, in my modest opinion. He and Oscar should have been rested today, maybe to come on still fresh in the second half. I really think Shurrle and Remy would have been the better options to start on midfield, as brawn to wear them down... But hey,all is going to be okay. This season is ours.

Set to become the first Belgian football player in history to get voted "Sportsman of the year"... I feel like writing an epic action story about this dude...
