Europa League Final 2013 - Benfica 1-2 Chelsea

[xPetrCechx 13,570]

Chelsea Without Hazard- Like last Season >>> Torres Instead of Drogba = SHIT!

[Sheva. 5,373]

Mikel anyone?

[Ankit 3,176]

is the team playing with any particular shape? I don't see any!!

[bushman 2,043]

The team is coming on in the 2nd. So, stop sniveling.

[Muzchap 8,966]

Looking forward to seeing the 'Luiz is god in midfield' brigade

Seriously?

they are overloading the midfield - Frank doesn't have the legs, Mata and Torres are NON EXISTENT up front...

It's the fucking formation it's just shit against a team like Benfica!

We haven't fucking learnt anything from Ateltico! This is what they did, but they had Falcao and not some fucking muppet up front!

[Ryan Fong 2,776]

Moses for Cahill. Rambo back in pivot, luiz as CB

Probably the only positive change we can make.

[TrippingStep 336]

Azpi, Ramires are not fit.

[Rmpr 8,977]

I'm just so sick of 4-2-3-1 it DOES NOT work against teams like this - everything is disjointed and shit

4-4-1-1 would have been better!!!

Fucking Benitez and his tactical fucking genius my arse! That cunt couldn't win FM with City and Sugar Daddy investment!!!

Fucking hate the way we are playing! It's embarrassing!

This is very subjective, if you really analyse it, we played 4-4-1-1 more than we played 4-2-3-1. Looking carefully, Ramires and Oscar often formed a second line of four with Lampard and Luiz. While Mata and Torres got isolated in front...

I think we should be playing 4-3-3 (this would help both Lampard and Oscar), but if we play 4-3-3 and let both wings drop back, it will simply become a dreadful 4-5-1...

Anyway we do, the key is play with more desire and hunger!

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

Probably the only positive change we can make.

I think Cesar is injured so he might be taken of for Ferraira or Moses

[Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067]

Missed the first half of the game,, apparently it was last years UCL finale?

Fuck man, we can't let this get away from us.

Hmm, everyone's fault but Luiz, I geddit.

I love him, I do, but he doesn't belong there. He (along with Frank) is offering no protection to the defence, they're skipping past them so easily.

HT change : Moses for Cahill, Luiz in defence, Rami in midfield, Moses wide right.

[Ryan Fong 2,776]

God words can't describe how much I wish Hazard can play.....

[BlueLyon 9,359]

We were absolutely dreadfull...fatigue got to us, but seriously why long balls from Cech?

Mata was invisible, Luiz is not Mid, Rambo has no energy. Lampard was no where. We dont run and fight for ball. We have no creativity in attack. No teeth in penalty area. No service from midfield. Bench doesnt offer anything special either...

Hoping on best in second half...

looking forward to people bashing him, without even looking at the opponent and how they play...

Agree with you. In my mind he has been one of the best from Chelsea. He might be sloppy, but he has that x-factor that can win us games, or lose. Either way, he is not the cause of our problem, players aren't awake yet. Crossing my fingers that the wake up call won't be a goal, because they sure can combine. Btw, whats up with the pitch? Seems so slippery and you can clearly see the watering radius on the grass, especially in the goalkeeper's area.
