Closed Corinthians 1-0 Chelsea

Hazard had a shit game, and still got 13% of the votes for motm. Thats not a surprise.

Also care to explain why it is not a surprise? I voted Luis btw. But I also did not think Hazard had a shit game, so I can understand some voted for him. Delivered some nice key passes too (the one on Moses e.g.) and had good link-up play. But what really stood out was his defensive work. That was really good today and that's what most of you drool on anyway . However, if you play Hazard, Mata, Oscar, you need to press high up the pitch, so that they should not always track back so much. The cohesion needed to do that in this team sucks. With Lampard and Ramires behind them, I think it will never work.

Because Hazard always takes a lot of votes for motm, even when he barely touches the ball.

He worked hard today. Tracked back alot and did his bit defensively. More than I can say about others.

He was better than most of our team and he was trying, although Luiz was by far the motm.

Henrique likes to exagerate on things, his speciality. Specially in Brazil, Cahill and Hazard. Dont bother...

my precise reaction to CFC as of late and thus my quote in my Sig.

[TrippingStep 336]

One player i feel bad for was Marko Marin.

Coming for just a few minutes and it was like the other players didn't want to give him the ball.

Two or three times he could have received the ball with a bit of space and he never received it.

fully expect to get our arses handed to us by Leeds on Wednesday night. The flight back to London is not due to land until Tuesday afternoon local time according to BBC Sport, virtually the whole squad has travelled so they will all have jet lag and 24 hours to recover before playing the scum.

EDIT:

Cech

Ferreira Ivan Luiz Bertrand

Azpilicueta Lampard

Mata Marin Piazon

Moses*

*If Sturridge is fit then him up front and Moses instead of Piazon

[Backstreet09 499]

Fucking disgraceful.

Rafa wtf were you doing.

Where is Backstreet09? Because I would love for him to tell me how torres is back to his best and amazing because he missed the biggest fucking sitter. Absolute bollocks from most though.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry , It was an pathetic performance , Wtf were the rest of our 10 players doing ? you can keep crying about Torres missed that though their were a slight pause , he didnt knew what happened than when he poked his toe , Cassio was already in the position to save it . And he constantly made runs but only few were picked , he was in better clear positions , no body fucking passed a through ball . You can watch the match again , what's the point of running behind the defender ? when you aren't getting the ball.

And i don't know why our players gets selfish when they are near the net , Moses could have passed to an open player , hazard had a chance to pass one too and Mata in the 93 minute or something , could have passed to someone else but tried a shot from an impossible angle and than everyone saw what happened .

Rafa made the right choice playing Lampard , If he would have benched Frank today , their would have been tons of articles in the internet , speculating on a rift between Rafa and Lampard etc and when the fans already dont like you much , benching their most favorite player isn't a wise decision.

And it's funny how Torres gets the bashing every match whether we win or lose , IMO Mata was fucking pathetic , and he's always has been in our big matches . We have the best creative midfield trio in the whole premier league , fucking makes me laugh everytime

wtf are you talking about? really, wtf? so he did the right thing because he is supposed to avoid speculations about a rift between him and some player? I thought his job was to make this a winning side in the short term, not avoiding speculatio from articles in the internet.

Ramires + Lampard as DM was the supidiest things I have ever seen.

[Land 331]

Luiz-Terry should be our partnership,no doubts now.

Cole has been so dreadful.Ivanovic isnt a solid RB either....

He's our interim manager , you all know what would have happened if he had benched him with all the "Lampard leaving us" stories revolving around . And we didn't had any options , If we would have started Mikel instead of Lampard , Ramires would have been running wildly high up the pitch , at least Lamps put a strap on him

Cole has been great this season so far. Today he was shit unfortunately. I agree though Ivanovic isnt a great RB, Azpi does that better. Until Terry comes back Id like to see Ivanovic and Luiz/Cahil at CB.

We started Dave against Monterrey he was disappointing , we started Ivanovic today we all know what he did . He with Cech has to get the blame for the goal .
