I seriously don't know what to say about this result, I really don't!

Funny how the 8-0 thrashing of Villa in the Premier League still stands as the ONLY home game we've seen goals scored at home under Benitez in FIVE matches!

But I agree with LDN Blue.. much as a majority of you guys like to call for his head, it's not Rafa's fault by any means!

I thought I'd be ironic, hip and cool and vote for Ivanovic. As it turns out six people have already voted for him, fuck you guys.

Deleted my vote.

Tbh Swansea were awful and we were really good, that was just such a shame of a result. I wanna blame ppl but really it wasn't fair at all, the most unjustified win i've ever seen, well except us beating Barca last season, again in a first leg of a semi final at the bridge. Gutted though, feel a bit devastated after that, another trophy gone. We have no chance. Swansea will be too focussed and motivated to throw this away having never won anything. A massive chance we had and it's a massive chance gone.

Getting a bit fed up now. i mean, we've got a great first team and squad and to not score in 4 of our last 5 home games is a bit of a disgrace. Deserved or not, we still lost. Where is the Stamford Bridge fortress?

Don't wanna blame Ivanovic because i love the guy but boy did he fuck up on a grand scale today. Ba needs to start over Torres now, the difference in quality between the 2 is quite shocking.

Anyway, in a word.... Gutted (again).

[Kojo 4,676]

I can't imagine the abuse Luiz or Mikel would get if they had made only one of those dreadful mistakes tonight. The double standards are unfair.

Anyway, Luiz put in a heroic performance tonight. Top class.

Oscar and Hazard were also very good, I thought.

WRONG!

If Mikel did that he would probably be praised and named the best DM in the world for the 50th time.

I would love for these people complaining to see how much the server costs.

Yup think target is £60.00 month that's £720 year - plus other bits bobs... So call it £1k

Last month £7 was donated shortfall of £53 - had to come out of Jims pocket!

I admit I didn't give money last month as was and still am pissed at being given what I feel to be an unfair warning...

But, after a strop, happy to help this place going - we have so many members 50p month would more than cover it

Or - maybe we create a buy/sell thread on here and TC take a % of each sale to help fund? That worked for a small company called eBay?

Anyway, lots of tech AND commercial options here - so don't worry like CFC we will progress

[OneMoSalah 8,886]

Haha well lets just say. I am putting haha everywhere to prevent my hate for that useless Spanish shemale bastard Torres coming out. Haha. Also Ivanovic, haha. HAHAHAHAHAH WHAT THE FUCK IVANOVIC ?!?!?!?!?!!??!?!!??!??!!??

P.S. If I see anymore of these Torres isn't getting any service tweets I will round fanboys up and start shooting...........

[KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607]

Abramovich has no-one to blame but himself. If he wants to sack someone for lack of trophies he should sack himself for continually making every manager play Torres.

[Z-25 12]

Yup agree 100% in some other posts you may have seen me saying exactly that.. What is our style, our shape etc - we are a collection of players thrown on a pitch, that doesn't make a team.

I don't think except Michu there is one other Swansea player who would start for us, but they play as a team are well organised and fair play to them. That's what we need - I said it first post of match thread.

I'm almost writing this season off TBH - 4th is now the only priority, everything else can fuck off

We need big changes in the summer, just hope we have enough in the tank to finish 4th

exactly! that's what we should have done, play as a compact unit because it's way too early to depend on oscar and hazard who are still in their early 20's to lift the team by themselves while Mata has done exceptionally well to be playing on the same excellent level from the start of the season for a player who's been playing non stop for 2 years.

you are right, 4th place looks like an achievement and it will won't be an easy task.

Please delete the Torres thread on here. To get rid of this cancer, his removable has to be gradual - starting with erasing any evidence or history of him on this site.

When the history books are written, they will say that it was "some Spanish guy" who won that corner in Munich and nothing more. Seeing, writing, hearing his name genuinely makes me feel uncomfortable.

Luckily there is the second leg - so i remain hopeful. All in all.. bad day for Ivanovic, put the 2 goals on a silver plate for Swansea. Though, the main worry is that we missed 4-5 sitters. Might argue that Torres was the culprit, in fact he was utterly useless, but we just didn't take the 100% chances - our own fault. Well done to Swansea for using our mistakes to their advantage both time. Can't say the better team won, because we did dominate, but in the end of the day the end score counts. So much possession and pressure from our side.. now I know what it feels to be a Barca fan and lose. Remain hopeful but it will be hell of a tougher job in Liberty Stadium, fingers crossed.

MOTM for me was Hazard, Mata was uncharacteristically wasteful. Luiz did brilliantly in the first half,, second half average, can remember a few interceptions but also a sniper rifle bullet aimed towards the stands. Our fullbacks are put into a situation constantly where they have to make a cross to the box from a very tight angle. At the end we actually had someone to attack them and very nearly got a goal. Demba did good when he came on and imho it was a penalty. The boos for Torres was deafening, hope it gives out a message for matches to come.

Abramovich has no-one to blame but himself. If he wants to sack someone for lack of trophies he should sack himself for continually making every manager play Torres.

Can you even prove that Abramovic forces the managers to play Torres?

[edetarod 2,155]

just a fat Spanish waiter...

[Superblue 6,372]

all I'm saying is that Luiz is being given far too much freedom, which affects our build up and most of the time render mata and hazard trivial not to mention we have a striker who doesnt know how to create any proper movement off the ball. so it is a lost cause. all this being said while losing to two teams we should be beating with style, no big teams yet.

also, it is a real shame that after acquiring all those creative players, only to ask a CB who is playing as a CDM to create chances for the team. sadly, the team has no strategy or plan when playing just depending on individual brilliance from either Mata, Hazard or one of the CB's to win us a game. pre-season was just a waste of time

Luiz played well tonight but one thing that I did notice was that earlier in the season when we played with two from Lampard, Mikel and Ramires, then Mata would be the one picking up the ball and dictating things for the team. I think it can be pretty safely assumed as fact that he is the best player in our team to be pulling the strings.

However when Luiz plays (certainly tonight), it does seem to stifle Mata who doesn't enjoy as much space as he gets from deep.

Typical 1st world phsycology for you mate, people complaining about a server what they don't even have to pay for. No one ever looks at it two ways do they.

If Rafa had subbed Ba in for Torres earlier.

For some reason, i keep thinking you and Leif are the same person. Yet you're both completely different, ones extremely weird and ones aggresive
