TorontoChelsea 4,064 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 We went more for defensive solidity and played probably our worst offensive game of the season. We were pathetic and creating chances. Pretty lucky to get away with a draw so I'm happy with that. Azpilicueta will get voted MOTM because he's the newcomer and he was good but he was not nearly as good as Ivanovic IMO.Ivanovic-13 clearances, 8 effective clearances, 1 interception, 1 offside won, 87% passing.Azpi-4 clearances, 2 effective clearances, 3 interceptions, 0 offsides won, 69% passing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheva. 5,373 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I'm happy with the point, we defended very well but were shit attacking wise. First clean sheet in years too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NishC300 1,865 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Happy for a draw.Foy is a fucking cunt, Citeh was pathetically physical, our attackers were fouled literally every fucking time.Ferguson's responsible for Foy.

Zone 290 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Disappointed right now but one positive was that i didn't get a heart attack with every City attack because the defence and team shape looked solid throughout the whole game. Attack was crap though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skipper 20,609 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Azpilicueta was great but Ivanovic & A. Cole was absolutely brilliant. Gave the latter my MOTM. Decent game considering we've been a mess defensively. Luiz/Cahill & Ivanovic looks a lot stronger than Luiz & Cahill - whole team defended well today, pretty typical Benitez tbh, what I hope Rafa does though is improve our offensive play with this new defensive organization because I can see a lot of these frustrating results ahead if we don't.

Ankit 3,176 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Had we lost, we would have been 7 points of the top. Now we are 5 with Manchester derby in 2 weeks time. A point is a fair result. There was a definite shape to the team and once that settles down, the 3 creativities will start flourishing again. We have relatively easier fixtures ahead of us so lets hope we make full use of it, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutcho 8,443 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 We were out muscled in our attack and were wuite wasteful in the final 3rd, still a clean sheet is nothing to be annoyed about... Rafa interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzchap 8,966 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 All 4 defenders played well - along with Ram + Mikkel I didn't even see Silva all match, nor any other strikers.Happy with the result4-0 midweek against Fulham!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran. 6,317 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Pleased with the performance - attack needs work but we were much more solid defensively. Not bad tying the champions after the shit run of form we were (are) in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xPetrCechx 13,571 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Doesn't say everything. We got into dangerous areas but lacked the final ball (or more correctly lacked the last movement off the ball).I thought we had as much a chance to win it as city did.City has More Opportunities and better one's...

blue_swaggin_96 96 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 torres is absolute shit, any decent striker would have finished that play he drifted over the bar, he runs around and tackles few players uses his chest only to lose seconds later, the light minded think" he was great " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
