Closed Swansea v Chelsea

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Ive said it before and i'll say it again, Mikel is physically not able to pass the ball in a forward direction.

He plays well in defensive actions, but indeed his vision is terrible.

Im happy with our performance so far, its visible that we play with some reserve, easy and calm. But Torres ruins the picture every time, jesus I hope RDM buys new striker, but I have feeling he realy likes Torres...

Not sure why anyone is blaming Torres for this half. The problems are clearly in the midfield. Torres had a couple of good chances and his movement has been good. You can't create goals out of thin air.

Not really happening here so far, think id bring on Marin for Romeu and move Oscar into the middle. Need to open this lot up. Also get Studge on for Torres, waste of time having him on!

[Sheva. 5,373]

The problem is Mikel imo. Romeu is being the DM while Mikel is pushing high up but he isn't doing much when he receives the ball, unlike Ramires who can make good runs and also take the ball forward and cause problems. Romeu for Ramires at half time please.

[Muzchap 8,966]

Yeah get Sturridge on even if he is a bit rusty. Least he shoots.

Exactly this is a. UNPROVEN goalie - we should be smashing it in from every angle

Like I said complete and utter disgrace, they need to liven the fuck up ASAP or we will deservedly lose this game and those Utd cunts will be top!!!!

This.

The bias towards him in this forum is unbelievable.

[ulsterchelsea 3,213]

I think people have gotten so used to having a go at Mikel now that they just do it as standard

?

Only 1 bad corner & that was from Mata's side?

2/3 were bad man.

[Peppen 934]

We need to play the ball faster. Cannot be satisfied with this result. Gotta go out and score an early goal.

[Waterfall 893]

So what's the difference? lol.

One shoots, the other does nothing.

[Ryan Fong 2,776]

Is it just me think that Romeu is a walking bomb?

[Hutcho 8,443]

Our defence has been good enough so far which is a positive of course, but atm it is like we have oscar hazard trying to create something with moses providing an option on the right. Torres is winning some headers but when the ball is on the ground just doesn't look convincing at all. Hazard has probably looked the most lively but hasn't really has anyone to link up with like he does with mata and usually oscar. Romeu needs to come off though for me, as rambo in there just provides so much more.

Quite correct

This.

Our Roman

Who art in Russia

Hollowed be thy name

Thy Kingdome come

Thy will be done at Chelsea as it is in Heaven

Forgive us our faith, and forgive us for defending the undefendable

And lead us to the Premiership

And deliever us Falcao or even Francis Jeffers

Amen.

Torres hasn't done anything wrong, too many people jump on the bandwagon.

Sturridge had a far worst first half against united on Wednesday, yet people say he played well... go figure.

[RamiCFC9 258]

I think Fellaini transfer in jan must be first priority, Romeu is no Chelsea starter material, Lamps in the pivot is just joke and Mikel will be in Africa so..Torres is playing his typical game - not doing anything.And what's with the hate in this shit stadium, I thaught we were playing Swansea not twattnam, their fans are booing like crazy and their team playing like cup final.
