Closed Chelsea 1-2 Crystal Palace

[BlueLyon 9,359]

We have good squad, we dont need improvement

Well done Mou and players. Iva, Willian were shit, but thats not our main problem. Our main problem is that Hazard, Matic, Cesc all look shit too. Dont give fuck, just terrible. Mourinho will have plenty to answer here. But looking at whole thing, I dont think its slow start to season or bad run. This is our average now.

We lost efficiency, good defence, physical dominance, speed, power, reactions, corner/free kick danger (remember when we had corner or free kick, thats was usualy half the goal for us?). For what? Technical ability? Under Mou, thats the last thing you need unfortunely.

But Kenedy and RLC looked good. At least some positives. Now Mourinho for god sake, play them and Baba.

Why not both?

We need Mourinho but he needs to step up and make changes, in my opinion Ivanovic would be on the bench, and then go into a 4-4-2 we need two strikers and 4 midfield with Pedro - Willian - Matic - Hazard

[petr.breu 1,618]

What the fuck is happening? Hazard, Fabregas, Matic, Ivanovic - all are terrible... Mourinho need to make some changes... 4 points from 12...

[FabHazard 655]

Hazard again with his disappearing act..if he keeps on doing this..we will struggle this season

This is not even a minor blip. This is a ongoing problem from the end of last season where our performances are going from worse to worse. Our defence is average. No pace, no natural attacking FB. Weak in the CM department. Constantly getting ran through. Mourinho plays his favourites and yeah Falcao scored but constantly gets favoured instead of a player who proved his worth last season. I think Mourinho himself his clueless. Bringing on Kenedy at LB and RLC for Matic. Just WTF? Players are below average and our manager is as much to blame. No more defending him when there is criticism due when deserved and this is just unacceptable. I actually thought the WBA would be the start of something. Clearly not. Absolutely shocking. 8 points behind City already who have not conceded a goal.

People underrated City. Kompany on form is easily the best CB in the league. They identified the weaknesses and fixed it. We stayed still till the other day. But wow, defence is a huge problem. Ivanovic poor. Azpi, decent but offers little in attack. Last week wasa one of. Our CB are looking beyond average this season. Matic has been poor because of Fabregas vulnerabilities in the middle of the park.

Just WOW. We have to vital games next which depending on the result of them, we may have to look at the top 4 race instead of the title race. Never been this worried with our performance since the season we finished 6th and we are the champions.

manager but especially players should be deeply ashamed

[Supermonkey92 1,428]

MOTM Iva nobody alse. He left heart on the pitch.

LOL I thought I'd be the clown to give Iva the vote but wasn't the only one!

[HRiver 1,512]

Have a bit of perspective, it isn't that bad. It really, really isn't.

We've conceded nine goals in just four games this season, and we earned a grand total of zero points in two of those games. I say it's not bad, it's alarming.

[Liuxas 121]

Let's just wait Mourinho interview and his excuses as always. Pitch,referee and etc.

[petr.breu 1,618]

Thank God for international break

[Billy. 2,742]

13th -3 goal difference

[quickpassnmove 924]

someone really f'd up re-signing this guy. going nowhere fast.

best part will be signing another big money player and falling on face again under this manager.

[Diego 433]

..... well... at least ...falcao scored .........

[Styles 9,790]

Pardew has long had Mourinho's number.

I didn't think we'd lose but I knew we were in for a tough game because Pardew knows exactly how to set up against Mourinho.

And we know Mourinho is a very basic manager who doesn't have much tactical variation or ideas in his approach to games.

[Thor 2,392]

I can empathise with him

I'm usually the one telling people to take it easy on here, but I won't lie... Tonight freaking fired me up. lol...

[ZOS 580]

I'm not telling you guys how to feel

but isn't that exactly what you're doing?

[zolayes 14,489]

13th -3 goal difference

This is our TRANSITION from Champions to mid table or WORSE ......

[empire of emotions 247]

I know that Ivanovic has been bad again but people should also look to their loves Cesc, Matic and especially Hazard...

matic has to cover in defense for two players. and hazard has to come all the way back to start creating because fabregas doesnt give a shit about anything
