Chelsea 3-1 Everton

[Term-X 7,891]

A failed Modric bid yes, but I'm happier with the fact that, we signed a player for half of the transfer fee we would have signed for Modric, and with him doing well, rather than losing Mata to another Premier League side, and gambling on Modric for £40m...

And tbf, Meireles may not be Modric, but he has done well when called upon...

Hugh? .. Mata has nothing to do with Modric, he would play on the wings with Sturridge and Modric would play behind him.

Meireles hasn't exactly disappointed, but there is a GULF in class between him & Modric, £40m would have been a bargain.

Was going to give Mikel MOTM but there's no doubt Mata deserved this one.

I personally think Mikel wasn't needed today. Slowed us down, Imo.

Anyone got AVB post-match interview video yet?

[Term-X 7,891]

If it hadn’t been for the Ramires injury, I’d like to think AVB would have given Lukaku a run around..

How is Ramires btw, anyone have any news?

i think we definitely NEEDED mikel to counter fellaini. and he did that quite well.

[Blue Armour 4,168]

Wish Drogba showed more enthusiasm throughout the match...he could have had much more influence, kind of like he showed in the build-up to Ramires' goal

Miereles, even Romeu, could have kept up with Fellani. Both those players give us an attacking edge, they initiate counter attacks and even general ones.

I've always defended Mikel's role.. In the old system. This new style, with the high defensive line, and defensive awareness of all the players (Lampard, Mata et al.) all nullified the need for a literal DMF.

Miereles is not a DMF. He's a central player, who will attack more than attack, which could've really helped us today. We should've scored more goals and at times we didn't because Mikel still played the "retention" game. This is not needed now. The system can work without such a defensive player.

[Blue Armour 4,168]

ya that guy is an idiot i was like come off it!

Not as annoying as the ESPN commentator who was like:

"Should we put Chelsea in the category of the two Manchester clubs?"

No..thank you! Says me....

Im happy that we are slowly building up steam instead of peaking too soon.

Any negative that could be thought of today should be forgotten about, we beat our bogey team with reletive ease, we didnt creat at a fast rate like we did at Bolton but we did enough and Everton created fuck all, it was as routine a win as we are ever likely to get.

Now when are we getting Tommy's match report?

when you put it that way it makes sense but i feel having that extra bit of security is good and mikel definitely gives us that.

Now when are we getting Tommy's match report?

I think he got delayed because his african killah Ramirez got injured so he's searching for some news

disagree thought he was excellent...only player who disappointed me was Drogba ..First half he did nothing.

he did slow things up a bit in the first 20 or so but he really came into the game and I thought his passing and tackling not to mention his positioning was spot on.
