Zorres, What else ?

[Gilvorak 3,734]

Either we have some very low IQ players or the squad depth is having a negative impact on the team, too many playing for themselves rather than the team tonight.

Torres the only one up for it tonight.

[Liquidator 5,176]

call me pessimistic but that was another below-par performance. I can live with the odd off-game but we have had quite a few now this season.

[Chelsea Legend 11 4,062]

despite getting a goal how many sitters did Torres miss? two for sure.

[Eidur the Spider 4,515]

Pretty dull game but job done. Thought Torres was very good, tailed off a bit in the second half but didn't have much to do. Loved the run at the end. (Side note: Nice to see the commentators not taking the mickey out of him for a change.)

Willian was very greedy all game, needs to improve his decision making, I understand him wanting to get off the mark but with Nando facing an open goal you've just got to square it.

Hats off to Essien too, thought he was solid barring a few moments! Liked seeing some trademark power runs again!

Torres with his standard amazing performance against sub-par teams I see . To be fair, he has looked good whenever he has played this season. I'd start him against Spurs.

[Pepsi 34]

Van Ginkel played really well. motm for me

Right...

MOTM- Torres

FOTM- Mata.

Surprise Of The Match: Schwarzer & Essien.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Through to the next round with minimum effort. Shame about the injuries, though.

[Special Juan 27,429]

Media will be gutted, poor them.

Torres excellent, still won't get carried away with him he needs to show more for me. We did enough, that's enough, I'm happy.

Goodnight all.

[nadavTKL 1,787]

Essien for the pivot.

[Pizy 18,368]

Could've won 6 or 7-0 if our finishing was sharper.

Willian and Mata both just look like they need a run of games. Willian especially looked very dangerous with his crazy pace.

I'd have Willian and Hazard on each wing with Mata in the middle against Spuds. I'd be confident in a win with that trio.

[Jose M 140]

Dismal performance!! Slow and single paced, Jose better have something up his sleeve for the YIDS.

Trying to figure out what people expect?

These are guys that haven't played a lot of football let alone together...

[Special Juan 27,429]

Ramirez had one spot to score and did, what a finish that was.

Let's be happy for one night, come on guys.

Smile

[bushman 2,043]

When Torres plays well, folks here will find some faults with him. When he plays shitty people snivel here.

To me, he should be in the line-up on Saturday.

[Chelsea Legend 11 4,062]

What I learned about Willian today: He hates Tottenham...
