Closed Chelsea v Swansea

I agree. Expect Ramires to come on to provide more balance.

In my opinion the only way we'll get that balance right is going 4-3-3. We can get away with Cesc-Matic against the Burnley's of this world but any team with ambition will cause us problems.

Fuck me Gomis hold up play i absolutely brilliant.

[The Skipper 20,593]

Ramires was a great sub, we already have a lot more control over the game.

[Thor 2,392]

Gomis is a really nice player... Just saying.

[Dion 2,476]

"we're facing a decent team". Lol. That's probably a great excuse to give them a lot of good chances. Just like we did against Leicester. Just like we allowed Everton to score three goals against us (oh, I forgot, they are a decent team too). I wonder what happens when we play a good team or a great team, if we are so sloppy and flat against "decent" teams.

Swansea beat Man Utd. Leicester and Everton drew with Arsenal. We beat all those teams that took points from our rivals to the title. You're overreacting - they're good teams and we beat all of them convincingly.

Are you expecting us to steam roll a team that is joint top 5-0?

No. I'm expecting us to be strong defensively, not to give Leicester three or four one-on-one situations against the goalkeeper, not to concede just after we score, not to give Swansea City so many goal scoring opportunities. I'm expecting us not to have blackouts like we had in the first 20 minutes of today's game. I'm expecting us to dominate our 'decent' opponents from the very first minutes of the game. I'm expecting this team to play fast and attractive football, as we were promised during the last season when we 'did what we were able to do with what we had, in order to get the most out of it'. Now we have all we need, but there are still problems. That's what makes me wonder about a few things.
