CHOULO19 24,332 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Decent result but it would have been amazing if we had nicked it. We had some good chances but our front three were abysmal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kojo 4,676 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Kalou is an awful player, he had a great chance to play Torres in, screwed it up... Sorry but a League 1 player could of done that. I could of played that through and i'm right footed, i'm abysimal with my left but i still could of knocked a simple pass in surely... what an awful player he really is. He even had a great chance to play Sturridge in, except he knocks his through ball to the right, where Varmaelen was... instead of the left where Sturridge would of been one on one. What a shocking player.I cannot stand him because he has no confidence what so ever, he's like ''oh shit what if i screw this up... oh wait'', instead he should be like ''hahaha get this ball, boom, booyakashaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa jungle this massive'', but obviously without the Ali G reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I know you're joking, but Malouda played well today, and Kalou, well...at least he tried.Ha yeah I was..Sort of. Yeah Malouda wasn't bad, but Kalou...Trying isn't good enough anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
English Freak 456 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 He doesn't seem to want to Learn. He's his own teacher, He already has a Degree in being a Selfish Prick.True, he is selfish but he'll be our best option at CF from next season if Drogba decides to move on.Just wondering....if Newcastle can sell Carroll for 35 million, then we should be able to sell Sturridge for around 25 million.

DavBlue 57 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 A point is good but I do feel let down, our front three were so frustrating at some points, we wasted so many good chances, great balls from the midfield weren't chased down and exploited. On the plus side our defence was great, Terry and Cahill were brilliant partnered in central defence, Bertrand let himself down with a few wayward passes but overall had a excellent game, I'm not even going to bother saying anything about Bosingwa. Overall considering the team we put out it wasn't a bad result, but we have so much work to do if we want to grab a good result on tuesday.

ulsterchelsea 3,221 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 What about near the end of the game when kalou could have played torres through and passed the ball straight to the defender in front of him. Id honestly fine him for a pass like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slam Dunk 1,442 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Also, how god awful were arsenal?! They "dominated" us towards the end of each half but it was still rubbish. No end product at all. And so many mishit passes, I thought I was watching Yeovil Town.Their midfield, Ramsey in particular, was awful on the ball. Looked like a gentle breeze would've outmuscled them.

capriccioso 2,545 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 A point is a good result against Arsenal away. Espeically with our 2nd team, however this shit needs to stop, we have never won one big game with Torres upfront, i'm sure we haven't.The only game i can remember is the United 2-1 win last season, and he didn't do much then besides take on a few players.I'm actually thinking of selling him, i hate his confidence, wait no i don't he hasn't even got any for starters. This man can't lead the line, not even with great assistance surely he can't, he gets chances and cannot score. Then he gives up and all this talk about him needing confidence comes back, we really should cash in on him and get a normal striker, not one that constantly takes this piss out of this club and team every day.I want him sold because he's past it physically. He's so slow these days compared to his peak, and his pace will only regress from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laylabelle 9,535 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Their midfield, Ramsey in particular, was awful on the ball. Looked like a gentle breeze would've outmuscled them.Ramsey was alwful every time he got the ball he lost it stright away!Just like watching a Chelsea playerYeah Newcastle 4 clear...bugger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedsBlue 1,549 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Torres's guilt was not being able to perform and deal with the stresses of being a 50 Million Dollar Man. Whereas Sturride can not even pass the ball.... I'm sorry But i'm tired of Supporting someone who just melts deeper and deeper into their bad habits.Sturridge has 12goals and 7assists this season as a winger.Yeah your right he's selfish.

Shane 2,275 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 When Jose Bosingwa was growing up playing football, you think someone would have thought him how to fucking cross a ball, the same goes for Sturridge and passing.Only positive was Bertrand, great game, and could have had a penalty.

Confidence? When he's hated by 95% of the Stamford Bridge crowd?Forget it. He needs 12 hours alone with me and other Kalou fans, and perhaps a sports psychologist to build up his confidence. He is a vital player for us given the quality of our squad. We're not the Galacticos, we can't replace world class with world class from the bench. 60 goals and 40 assists in 6 years for a 9 million pound winger is a very good return, he has to go down as one of the better signings of the Roman era.

BleedsBlue 1,549 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I did say basically stating it's not really a reserve team. Bosingwa? Romeu who I almost forgot we had? Essien who almost can't run? Kalou? Malouda? Sturridge? With them Torres who didn't get a single usable ball? You can't really expect that team to beat Arse at Emirates. Yes they can, but chances for that are low.On the other hand, Barcelona is about to play Real Madrid. A very important game for them because of the league and their games with Madrid are usually really exhausting for both teams. Then we face them with a fresh squad while they are not going have their players rested that much.It could determine the outcome of the match.well then if your prioritizing this game as a boost for the 2nd leg,then indeed you are right but this result doesn't really help us a lot for the race for 4th place.
