Closed Newcastle 2-2 Chelsea

[rantdeville 195]

We're staying up.

[Reddish-Blue 2,226]

At least we gained a point. We had the opportunity to score more goals but Remy was off-target and Pedro missed a simple 1v1 opportunity

[Gappy 130]

Good result but very poor performance.

Yes they park the bus and also yes we don't know how to create a open play chance.

now it seem that our 2nd squad ( the XI that play with walsal, Tel aviv ) look lively than our first XI

and I will blame cesc + matic + hazard that make our attack very slow pace they keep holding the ball put it wide and sent it back

Hazard I'm not sure he should get more fouls or he just to slow to dribble, create almost nothing didn't seem to have pace enough at all.

Matic was run too much but he's always lost his position,his ability to read the situation was gone and he should stop keep going forward with ball just pass the ball fast now he play like mikel + ramires ( in old version ) and mikel was play like him o_0

Cesc was poor defense he can't create chance if opposite park the bus ( he shine after Newcastle push their line lot of long pass was showed ) although it's good with long shot at first half but his passing was create nothing than pass the ball wide.

Our first XI attack was sooooo boring

hold the ball ,wide it to hazard done nothing long pass to another side ivanovic ????? then he cross .... to nowhere near the box -.-

they repeat this cycle again and again and again and again not just this game but almost a decade - -

Shame that we have HAZARD / OSCAR / PEDRO / CESC to create chances but they always give the ball to RB that don't know how to cross.

I don't know it's that 4 men false cuz they too lazy to use their brain to create chances or it's ivanovic that alway run too high and think he was Beckham or all of them was too blind too know that this doesn't work.

People need to stop worrying about city, United and arsenal. Our rivals are Liverpool and Tottenham. Do people actually think we will challenge for the title? This isn't a bad run, it's just how bad we are.

somebody who understands my feeling

The match clearly states what a great team we have, but the team only starts performing after the 70th minute or so. Why can't we be like that the whole game

[lionsden 4,689]

If the manager's name was John Smith he would have been sacked.

John Smith would probably make better team selections and get us performing better than this. It's that bad.

[kellzfresh 7,226]

What happened to our pressing and passing in the whole first half????

We just kept on strolling and giving the ball back to newcastle for a throw-in or freekick like we didn't have any gameplay. That was the worst 45mins I've ever seen since supporting Chelsea. I just can't get over how terrible we were.

The amount of entitlement on this board is embarrassing. It's like you think we should automatically be top of the table regardless of performances. Football doesn't work that way. We're going through a blip but there have been worse moments than this. People are quick to forget the Villas-Boas/di Matteo/Benitez era and even the Avram Grant days. Considering we're in a real shit moment, and that Newcastle always raise their game against us, we have to be happy with the point, especially considering we were 0-2 down. That's a point gained on last season's result. Beat Southampton on Saturday and we'll have gained three points on last season's corresponding fixtures.

Just one question, given the current situation and the manner of our how we are presenting ourselves on the pitch ... Do you think we will get all 3 points on Sat?

Too bad we already 6 points behind (5 including yesterday result).

'Beat Southampton'- east to say, harder to do probably. Can't see us winning this.

Of ye of little faith! We'll do it!

[Laylabelle 9,304]

Chance to go above them if we do win :-P.ignoring the top few table isn't to bad.we'd gone into 8th had we won.chances there to move up we just don't seem to take them

[unitedkingpin 21]

Still 15th... yay.

Something between Moyes and 7th and Mou and 15th...

Moyes > 12 points in 7 games (we played well but unlucky)

Mou > 8 points in 7 games (we were the better team)

Is Mou the new Moyes

[coolhead23 1,146]

Of ye of little faith! We'll do it!

Alrighty!

[NishC300 1,865]

Just saw the table, 8 points from 7 games...how fucking depressing is that.

MAN UNITED IS ABOVE US......

[iseah100 5,612]

Why the fuck is Ivanovic still playing? Newcastle are our bogey team, just gotta keep going and focus on Porto. Tough match.

[MefiX19 1,092]

MAN UNITED IS ABOVE US......

It's better to talk who is below us than above.
