devonblue206 1 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 As a newby on this site I have to say I'm as disappointed with today's result as are all Blues supporters no doubt. To be honest JM has inherited a squad that needs some pruning and a few additions. We need a new backbone and sadly JT & Frank wont be regulars for much longer.I think JM will rebuild (hopefully with some UK additions) but my main concern is he appears more sullen and less charismatic than the JM that first arrived at this club some 10 years ago. OK, he's been about a bit and time does smooth out the rough edges but it doesn't yet have that old same feeling when you just knew players would run through brick walls for him. I still believe, but he must be given time as we have the best manager in world football at our club - no argument. RA wants exciting expansive football and continued success, JM will give it to him in time and I believe this season has been a success and the rebuilding has started albeit there has been the papering over of a few cracks! It will happen - all in good time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henrique 9,133 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 When he said that?I think it was November. He was saying Arsenal was the boring the team because they couldn't score at home, something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kobematabryant 400 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 See, we look clueless when it comes down to dominating the possession and shots. We seem to not have any answers when we are in control, for example Crystal Palace, Sunderland, today, West Ham but when we have low possession, our defensive tactics win us game. We only seem through defensive tactics these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only seem through defensive tactics these days.Against Scousers-M.U.-City it did n't quite look that way.Some breakdown, notably after the City away game, but what precisely ?There was the 6-0 against Arsenal in this period, but that was an exception, also Arsenal crumbled from the 6th minute.

Liquidator 5,176 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Just crap really. The players can't be arsed anymore because there is nothing to play for and don't wan't to get injured before the World Cup. Waste of 90 minutes of life. Disappointing to see so many plastics boo the team off and then not bother to stay for the lap of honour. Was a bit embarrassing that the ground was about 40% full for the lap of honour. Notice how Lampard didn't make a speech on how we are 'the best fans in the world' like he usually does on the last home game of the season.On the other hand, most of the players bunned off the lap of honour too. Only Lampard, Terry and Cole seemed to actually show any genuine gratitude for the fans. The rest seemed like they did the lap purely because they had to. Didn't see Salah or Ba on the lap (although I may have be wrong on that) while Eto'o and Mikel obviously had better things to do on a Sunday afternoon.

His Majesty 43 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Seems like our tactic against teams like Norwich and Sunderland is to count on a flash of brilliance of Hazard and see the game out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year seemed more of a mixed bag.Shit against the top and lowerish teams whereas this time we've been better against the top and crap against the bottom.Still silly points been thrown away and dodgy performances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 I realy hope its world cup thing, because most of players didnt give fuck today...Would be better if we just played Baker and Kalas at some point IMO. Then, even draw, this game would mean something. It would mean Jose counts on young players in next seasons. I mean, players didnt give fuck, we had nothing to lose and Jose didnt even bring youth players on bench?Our defense is solid I must admit, but in terms of attack; just a honest answer please: DID JOSE MAKE ANY IMPROVEMENT IN OUR ATTACK THIS SEASON AT ALL?I hope that is his strategy; improve team in defense first season, then improve it in attack second season. If we bring striker, LB and CM, our attack wont be much better if current players dont improve and connect/play as a team!And when people say we dont need another AM, I think we have enough AMs in term of quantity, but not quality. Up to Jose if he will make any change on that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
