Closed Porto 2-1 Chelsea

[Azpinator 2,325]

The activity of watching this season's games is becoming more and more unhealthy each week.

In the context of the group alone, losing to Porto away is by no means a disaster since it's probably our toughest game. But given our current situation, the result and performance are absolutely dire. Watching us play this season has to be one of the funniest things in 2015. We are hilariously bad. We were actually OK going forward - especially in the first half - and created some decent chances which we should have scored (PEDRO FFS!) but defensively, we were atrocious. Never mind the never-ending rubbishness of Ivanovic, that series of Porto attacks and blocks from us late in the second half summed up us perfectly.

We are a total mess. There's no organization, no intensity, no commitment, no desire in what we do. It's almost as if everyone is just hoping for things to go our way at the moment. No one in that team is taking any responsibility to help us get out of this mess. Two seasons ago, Mourinho said we 'lacked the 'balls' after losing at Crystal Palace. Think the same phrase can be used on the players right now - those lots are a bunch of pussies. They really are. I miss those days when we have plenty of strong characters in the team - Cech, Carvalho, Terry, Essien, Lampard, Ballack, Drogba etc - and I also miss the time when we keep clean sheets for fun. Now, it's just a group of spineless bastards who have no sense of shame or pride in what they do.

I'd be in stitches if Chelsea weren't so terrible.

Someone do me a huge favour and post Claude footage. My mood will improve if I see and hear that beautiful man articulate and express his feelings and thoughts.

I'm refreshing YouTube as we speak mate!

Told you guys Porto were no joke. Aboubakar is class. Brahimi and Neves as well. They have a team that can go far.

Jose mourinho slashes outr at defenders... Mourinho is really out of his mind, he first starts an unwanted row with the medical staff and now with players. Seriously his screen presence is getting embarrassing to look and listen to

Shocking display. Not to take anything away from Porto, but we never looked up for it.

Fabregas will never work alongside Matic, and with the ease that players are taking the ball away from him, the number 10 role will never work either. It looks like he's just lost it completely. I have no clue why he's even allowed to take any set-pieces or corners either. His crosses look about as good as Ivanovic's and his shots go straight into the wall. Let Willian take the free kicks. He's shown he can do something with them.

Ivanovic looked shit again, but really, the whole defense looked poor. That's mainly on them, but it's also because of the 2 back midfielders giving loads of space for the attackers to work through. Pedro, while trying, isn't a defensive type, so Ivanovic isn't getting any help when there's play down his side, and Zouma is too inexperienced to properly help him out.

Hazard did absolutely nothing again. I was hoping him coming on as a sub would let him play a "super sub" role, but that never materialized. He looked the same as he has all season.

They were awful. Aboubakar made Cahill look like an amateur. Zouma lost Maicon on the corner, Ivanovic was Ivanovic. Nothing wrong with criticism, though it's also his fault, he needs to drop Ivanovic.

you was talking talking about your mexican boys who didnt even start, i was the one who mentioned not wanting to see Ivanovic up against Brahimi. We were lucky Brahimi wasnt 100% fit.

Go back and look when the groups were first drawn smart guy. I've know they would be a tough team. They didn't play, but i dont see why that is relevant.

I did not watch game due to school; but can someone give an honest recap and not this sensationalist crap; i checking twitter in class and at half time everyone was saying we were comfortably better?

[Chelsea Buzz 487]

We're a shambles of a team. In every facet of the game. Embarrassing in defense, non-exsistent in midfield, and our attackers can't even get the ball most of the time.

We look like a shell of the side that played last season. Just totally dominated by Porto and we would've conceded 4-5 were it not for Begovic. That's about the fourth time we've had to say that, too. We look like a totally spent force in so many areas.

Willian and Costa looked decent and Begovic saved us from an embarrassing score line. Fabregas and Ivanovic terrible again. What happened to Pedro? After his flash on to the scene here he's been poor or anonymous more often than not. Totally out of it like everyone else in our team.

May sound like hyperbole, but we seriously will struggle to finish in the CL places playing like this.

Are the players just not responding to Mourinho's directions any longer? Can that be the problem? This season has been inexplicably shocking. Something seriously wrong and concerning.

Preach on brother. There is something much more sinister at work here than all of the players waking up suddenly out of shape and forgetting how the game is played. There is something seriously wrong, which is more than obvious because it is the same story over and over. No improvement from one game to the next. The back line is not even a leaky bucket, it is like trying to catch rain without a bucket. Could have lost 6-1 tonight easily.

As I have stated before, I will always support the Chels and I'll be there watching again this Saturday, but there are major problems in the locker room. Jose needs to sort it out quickly. We all love the guy for what he has won at Chelsea and will always be a legend, but he clearly has no answers for this group.

Oh, how I long for the days when we could only complain about Fernando No-Score-es! Those were the days

Hell, I'd take Torres over most of this current lot.

Do we miss Drogba and Cech's leadership this bad?

Come on you Chelsea!! :blue scalf: :blue scalf:
