dodojojo 510 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 FIY. This is a team game. I don't care if he doesn't score as long as e puts in a performance. Today he setup two goals. And was denied a goal. Pretty good performaxe I'd sayBig whoosh there, Warnie...Look at my avatar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,956 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I dont really need Torres scoring goals (although it would be brilliant) - as long as produces assists and we're winning, I am fine and can live with that haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ulsterchelsea 3,221 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Well done lads, plenty of good performances tonight and you can see we are starting to get there. Mata and studger were great, meireles and mikel controlled the middle and flo weren't half bad either. Davy lou is a legend as always and bos looks back to his old self. Nando sets up 2, should of had a goal too and nelks looked his hypnotic best when he came on. I'm really starting to see what avb is doing here and the rotation ain't a bad thing at all. Studger man of the match for me ...this boy will fly for us this year. KTBFFH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambo 1,729 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Gotta love how our players forgot to pass today. We were very lucky to have a sharp finisher like Luiz and the smart composure of Mata today. Bosingwa could be an amazing right back, if he improved his crossing!We played good football today, but a lot of school boy mistakes. Hopefully we'll see improved concentration on Sunday.Spot on, our passing was messy and we took too much time on the ball which ceased our momentum going forward.

Bosingwa could be an amazing right back, if he improved his crossing!We played good football today, but a lot of school boy mistakes. Hopefully we'll see improved concentration on Sunday.I thought he already was, and his crosses are actually decent although he should refrain from crossing at every opportunityAgree on the mistakes, but Raul and Mata were obviously a bit tired coming in...Favourites from this match:Petr Cech saving from Michael Ballack (at least his return to the bridge has something for everyone to talk about)Luiz back in businessTwo-assist Torres, who I'm sure has two words to give to the haters in the media.

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 any one else see in the highlights of AVB Lampard hitting on the medical staff girl Eva in the background? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Spot on, our passing was messy and we took too much time on the ball which ceased our momentum going forward.Yeah. I think (I hope..) it's because they took Leverkusen quite lightly. Concentrations will be a lot higher on Sunday though, so hopefully that's all it was.

Milan 17,956 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I thought Meireles looked really good, just putting it out there.Exactly. He had a pretty good game. Not a big star signing but something right for the starting team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zolayes 14,489 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 David Luiz must get booked in his next game.I would rather see him suspended for Genk, as opposed to a stronger team in the knock-out phase. (With all respect to Genk)I will get beckham to have a word with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZanSnake 1,211 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 There is rare potential in that front-line, and it could be 100% better if Mata and Cole connected as well as Sturridge and Bosingwa - and if Bosingwa learnt how to cross. I am pleased to see Nando being unselfish, and the celebrations with Luiz, Anelka and Mata with bth goals show that team spirit is high -- which could boost his confidence. He was sharper today, but was a little to hesitent in front of goal, but i have to admit, that young keeper was exceptional!Sturridge Man of the Match, or even Nando. A brilliant team performance! And nice to see Anelka making a BIG difference with the change, maybe he could be our super sub this season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLionheart 516 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Gotta love David Luiz , MOTM for me , may be he is a little harsh sometimes but if anyone had won us this game it's him .A very good performance with some individual errors but a lot improved pace !! Mata ,Cech, Iva , Sturridge ,cole, Torres and Miereles had a good match as well , Bosingwa against Young or Nani won't go with out troubles .

bloody 209 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Great game, performance and result. Made even better with the Arse and Barca results. Slightly disappointed with no Torres goal - two assists won't shut the press up - but Mata and Luiz will do.who gives a toss what the man utd and liverpool loving press thinks. he did well today with two assists.

diskoviolente 425 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 That was just what needed before going to The Theatre of Depth.Leverkusen certainly gave us a good run around. Their goalie is just class. Good side, didn´t remember them playing such postive football for ages. Got to admit the Bundesliga really improved over the last two - three years.Good postive football by both sides. AVB has some ideas of his own how to play. And respect for the boy Torres. He gets hackled every day of the week and still plays the assists instead of going for goal. It´s Chelsea FC and not Torres United. He certainly knows that. Motm: Torres or Mata. Good game by Luiz, has to watch his defending a bit.Pleased with what i see at Chelsea at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
