Jase 43,479 Posted March 17, 2013 Author Share Posted March 17, 2013 Wonderful performance. Offensively, we were superb with Mata and Hazard looked deadly especially the latter. He was definitely in the mood! Created tons of chances and we really should have scored more than just the 2. The final scoreline really flatters West Ham. Defensively, we were alright though worrying at times and does give one the panic when Carroll keeps winning the headers. Thought Cahill was poor in dealing with him as he got bullied far too easily by him. That aside, great performance and good result all around. We won. Spurs lost. Back up to 3rd.

Jase 43,479 Posted March 17, 2013 Author Share Posted March 17, 2013 Not very important but...1. Chelsea have won back-to-back PL matches for the first time today since 30th December 2012 - after beating Norwich & Everton.2. Chelsea are the only side to have kept a clean sheet against West Ham in the Premier League London derbies this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Gino 377 Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Cahill and Luiz struggled as usual as a duo but they were both bullied by Carroll too easily. Terry if fit should ALWAYS be starting over Cahill. Not having a defensive midfielder back there to help shield and mop up exposes their weaknesses even more. Ramires and Lampard both got too forward as usual leaving acres of space behind them but West Ham didn't have the players to put this back six to the sword.

sureshot 20 Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Sitting at home watching the game, I knew he was going to do something special today. Oh boy did he deliver. I cheered so hard that the neighbours came nocking on my door. To say something bad about him today: His passing was not that good. I saw him give 10 bad passes today and that's maybe something that should improve.Don't know where to put it so I'll say it here: I think Luiz should start acting like a CD and put less risk in his game. He should stop taking those freekicks and stop playing bad long balls. And Mikel isn't fitting in this team altrough I think he's a good player, he slows everything down and isn't able to play the ball forward enough to fit Chelsea's style of play. I feel like Chelsea needs to find another left back to allow Ashley Cole some rest and have another more fluid footballing option. It's proven today you can play with 2 CM's and a AM in a 4-3-3 and I hope Chelsea will play this way in big matches too.And you can see Benitez has worked on how our AML and AMR should ask the ball positioning wise. I see a lot of improvement on Hazard movement without the ball. Not just sticking to the sideline but moving a lot and getting that extra yard from his marker to be able to turn straight at goal after his ballcontrol. Just saying that Benitez isn't that bad and I knew the whole saga but I believe he is honourable in what he's currently doing.Just my opinion.
