I know we cam for three points and we did what was needed to get the result, but i felt personally disappointed by the second half performance after the hype of the first half. We weren't playing our all, and i know that, but there has to be some standard which we can show so that they can say 'they can win this thing'. All i can say is overall is was decent, and that i hope that we can perform top in the next game. And at least give McEarhan 10 minutes, he is a one of kind, and better to develop sooner then later.

The fact that Marseille was in complete control and the players just seemed off. We were lucky, imo, that we didn't conceed. I think the players would be more burnt out running after the ball because they didn't have the possession. To be fair, i think we should have made attack better, and that we showed some weakness down the right hand flank no and then and even the right winger had to come all the way back to help defend, making an counter attack even less strong. Like i said, if Zhirkov came off earlier that we would at least have more control in midfeild. EDIT: Oh and the constant switching off players in positions, imo didn't help either. Malouda in the right wing isn't as strong on his left, and Kakuta in CM isn't as strong either, and also tires them out more.

Good first half, dissapointing second. Zhirkov should have came off earlier.

JMac in defensive role = meh

JMac should get an appearance at least

If J-Mac does come on if would be Mikel, Essien drops back and MCEarhan and R7 attack

Malouda -- Sturridge -- Anelka

Carlo must be enjoying some opera off his ipod

Zhirkov running around like a scolded dog, and Marseille pushing us off the ball, hmmmm.....

Carlo satnds there and still he hasn't done anything....

We need a creative spark, and McEarhan is the kind of player we need.

having a dig at Mikel now, what a cunt.

Kakuta has to have been told to be more attacking

We have gone down one gear when we need to go one up

Take Zhirkov off and replace him with McEarhan, he seems to be knackered

Kakuta playing in the midfeild now and then

2-0 Anelka! Cooly done

Holy fuck! Chelsea are finally getting a hand ball in the penalty box!

good pass gael

Malouda is fucking superb!

TERRY!! Fucking Andy Gray, cunt! Kakuta assist!

Malouda lively

Looks like Marseille going for long ball

I take it back, american over andy gray

I hope the stream isn't American Commentary throughout the whole match, i might miss what he's talking about half the time
