Weckerz 3,781 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 But when you score the goal and make the assist that turn the game you did it. Lampard was by far the standout man today with his brillinat passing. Hazard and Ba where pretty poor.Why?Second best player on the pitch, after Luiz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Cool 388 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Lampard MOTM, but Mata and Luiz were immense!Oscars haters, shut up...Why should be be immune to any criticism? Before his goal (which was very well taken, don't get me wrong), he was awful, something that we've seen a bit too much this season, and you can't even blame being played out of position for those horrible few touches/passes. Obviously, it's a bit far to compare him to Kalou, but to tell his critics to shut up is quite unfair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuvala 2,167 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Amazing game for Lamps! Luiz was top class aswell!Mata did everything right, but a pitty he couldnt finish his 2 best chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Oscar wasn't even good today but people were saying that we should bring on Benayoun or Marin for him, calling him trash and were also comparing him to Kalou, so in my opinion its more than fair to tell them to shut up. If you're going to criticise someone, at least do it constructively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Why?Second best player on the pitch, after Luizcredit where credit is due. Lamps contribution won this game more than anything else. All reports I randomly checked also have it this way btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 There is only one MOTM, and that is Vorm. It could have been 5-6 if it weren't for him. Pulled some ridiculous saves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Android 16 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Is it just me, or does every goalkeeper become world class against us? :/My MOTM is Hazard (Luiz was my second favorite today), and RESPECT for Lampard but I don't agree that he was our best player today..Overall, vital 3 poins (and Man U got a draw against Arsenal which is good for 2 reasons -Man U not getting the above-95 pts, and Arsenal dropping points yayyyy )I really wanted Mata to score on his b.day...but still great! Europa League here we come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean the Spanish national team, right? I'm pretty sure that in Spain almost anyone knows about Chico... in Spain he didn't succeeded.

Blue Armour 4,443 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Was I the only one that thought Lampard was poor? One of the few I was going to point out that had a bad match. Just because you come onto the ground and the match happens to turn around at that point, doesn't mean you were the sole contributor for it. Hazard, Luiz and even Ba really stood out for me. Mata gave the ball away too much, as did Oscar, and Lamps was making some shocking passes out there. Lampard has had quite a few games this season where he's gone invisible, but today was far from one of those. Granted, a few of his passes didn't meet their target, but he tried as much as possible to keep the pressure on that Swansea defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He deserves a call up, imo, with the season he's having. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only place to be 11,313 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 So I'll be the Rupert.....Rafa did well today. Swansea are clearly on their vacation but they were still pretty good in defence up until the goal. Losing Rami could've been a massive blow but Rafa made the right choice by bringing on Lamps and not Mikel. He provided that go-forward we needed and changed the game for us.Oscar took his goal beautifully and went well from then on but he was absolute garbage for most of the first-half. Just like the Fulham game, it was an old-fashioned Chelsea win in the end and it's starting to become a bit of a habit.A great 4 days for this club though.1. A great win in Basel2. Chalobah scores a screamer and grows his reputation3. Lukaku gets 1 goal and sets up 24. Spurs drop 2 points5. Chelsea get a nice win6. Lamps gets his goal whilst looking like Frank Lampard7. Bobby Tambling gets a great reception after his recent troubles8. Arsenal drop 2 points9. United can't get our record10. QPR get relegatedIn a shitty season, a few decent days.

I wouldn't mind to have him as 3rd center back. He is being pretty consistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
