On the bright side in this match, lampard had a better game than qpr. I felt it was because at times we looked like we were playing 4-3-3 with ramires, lampard and mikel in the middle. That is what lampard is used to(remember makalele, ballack and lampard missed that lamps)

INSTRUCTIONS DIMATTEO SHOULD GIVE TO TORRES TO DEVELOP HIS GAME

I noticed some things that make torres look bad.

1. Torres should hold the ball to his feet and pass instead of trying to dribble and looking for the foul.

2. I hope oscar has taught torres how to shoot without looking at the goal just like drogba (torres is a freakin striker SHOOOOT :readthemessage: )

3. Peter cech should stop hooping balls to torres, he cant win an aerial battle even if its against ramires :rant:

4. Torres should pass when surrounded by three players instead of trying to do everything on his own :angry: He loses the ball more than anybody in chelsea(mainly because of peter cech) he is starting to look like suarez in my eyes. <_<

5. He should play it simple - pass and look for the return ball by making a run. I never see torres do this. Falcao does it 100% of the time. :cry:

*rant over*

According to whoscored, David Luiz played 15 long balls of whch 10 were accurate...no wonder I was feeling that he kept pumping the ball upfield for Torres from well within our own half at every opportunity he got...Torres, isolated as he was kept drifting wide chasing Luiz's balls (no pun intended) and Oscar didn't really look for second balls or flick-ons...

Again according to the stats we didn't play a single Through Ball in the entire 90 minutes, Juve played 4...we were a little one-dimensional and lacking in creative ideas at times yesterday...I guess it will take time to change our style and approach to the game, let's just be thankful there were prominent signs of progress yesterday...

The reason there is no through balls is because torres doesnt make runs. like the post i made above

The game changed when Ramires was subbed. I always looked at Pirlo whenever Juve had the ball, and i think it was usually Rami and (suprisingly) Oscar who pressed him most of the time, forcing him to quick passes and little time to pick out Juve's front men. Since Pirlo operates quite deep it was not Mikel and Lampard's position to harass him. Juve got somewhat frustrated in the first half and started skipping Pirlo, playing long balls to Giovinco and Vucinic, making it easier for us.

When ramires was subbed however, the level intensity also dropped and we started sitting deep, which allowed Pirlo more space and time (like England match vs Italy in the Euro), and they started playing Conte's style of high possession, pressing football. Once our midfield won the ball back (Mikel and Lampard), we were pressed by Marchisio and Vidal, and we all know what happens when Mikel is under pressure...

Another thing I got from the game was that Chiellini, again, is world class. He completely marked Hazard out of the game in the second half when Hazard switched to the right wing.

Words of Giles Smith "As you may be aware, we won this competition last year - and did so through some bloody-minded clinging-on and some highly efficient counter-punching, mostly in order to annoy Franz Beckenbauer. And enormously enjoyable it was, too.

But, on last night's evidence, that doesn't appear to be the way we intend to defend it. Last night was our first proper sight of the energy-boost supplied to this team by Oscar and Eden Hazard, working together, and it looked like a dual set-up that could very quickly turn into a thing of wonder. I'd hate to have been a member of Juventus's back line last night, getting harrassed and closed down by Oscar and Hazard on the form they were in in the first half, in particular. It would have been like being trapped in a small car with two hornets.

Plus if there was a better taken goal on our ground in the last three decades or so than Oscar's second one last night, then I'm struggling to remember it. It was, of course, classically, the kind of goal that deserved to win a match, so there was bound to be some disappointment when Juventus crept back into it. Bear in mind, though, that Juventus are no slouches and, indeed, don't appear to have lost a match in Serie A since the age of the oil lamp.

Also, it would seem to me, looking at our group, that the key to qualifying from it is to drop points (if we must drop any at all) only when Juventus are doing so, too. To that extent, we're bang on track to go through".....This is exactly how i feel too as we can only get better come the knock out stages...can't wait :dance:

In my opinion you didn't even deserve the draw.......

point of views... you scored two long distance goals, one with a deflection. and had a good chance with Mata after a great combination with Hazard. on the other hand we had, goals apart, 3 great opportunities and hitted the cross bar when we were 2-2. can't blame it on Juve if your players sometimes make mistakes, the draw was a fair result imo.. =)

Find it ridiculous that people are just dismissing the threat of Shakhtar. Regardless of the result last night, our qualification for the Last 16 is by no means a foregone conclusion.

Please tell me you're joking.... The draw could of easily been a loss, and if you can't see that then you were watching a completely different game to most the people on this site.
