The Skipper 20,609 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 so did I, but they won't listen under their pessimism and surprisingly Mourinho criticism...Also, I'd rather keep Cesc - the midfield liability for some in the team - if he continues to assist every match than anyone else. And that's after the guy being everywhere... but you know...I think Hazard was brilliant this first half, that the kind of performance I hope he keeps throughout most of the matches, assists and goals are consequence of that and will come now and then. He's been really good, doing his thing, enabling the team. He's been our best player in the first halfPeople have been screaming for more attacking football but refuse to understand that that means we'll naturally be more vulnerable at the back. Some on here just don't understand the mechanics of football at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Now Ramires in for Oscar, Cesc on a more advanced position and Willian/Remy in for Schurrle and Chelsea should win this one. Come on Chels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 2,745 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Gomis has been fantastic for them. We need to stop him and get the ball off him somehow. He draws so many of our players, and yet retains the ball. Pressure him and get in front of him. He is the centerpiece of their damn offense and is killing us just with his amazing hold up play. Costa is a machine though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego 433 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Get in Diego you beautiful man! couldn't of scored at a better time. We go into HT with our tails up and they go in disappointed.

CMS 382 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 How many times has Terry fucked us in the last year?It certainly looked like one of those Terry fuck up days. I pray its not so. He looks out of odds sorts of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Styles 9,790 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 People have been screaming for more attacking football but refuse to understand that that means we'll naturally be more vulnerable at the back. Some on here just don't understand the mechanics of football at all.Not this vulnerable though; in every game so far we have been there for the taking on several occasions. I wanted more attacking football because we were too defensive before, but that doesn't mean I want us to play without balance in midfield and allow teams acres of space in front of our back 4.

Some on here just don't understand the mechanics of football at all.when Matic is back in the zone, eating opponents for breakfast, we'll look much more stable, but never like last season.He'll come there, I'm sure he will, he's one of our key players and I think we'll look much better defensively when he's finally on his best again. He's like a thermometer in the team, but regardless of when he regains his best form and enters beast mode, we won't be as solid defensively as last season because the system changed, there's no way to keep that defensive solidness and have more attacking football employing only 11 players. Some of them won't have as much defensive contribution because they're too busy contributing in the attack and there's so much running up and down they can do... I think Matic is also feeling this - we all know stamina has never been his forte, but hopefully he'll be able to keep up and find the balance.

dee25 1,044 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Thrilled that we equalized and love our attacking play, but that midfield two in front of the back four....something has to be done because they don't look solid at all and I don't think the blame lies only with Matic.
