Would add Cahill to that. Poor defendig for Watford's 2nd, that's Conference level if you ask me. And it's not the first time he does that. I know you're not supposed to have a go at the attacker in that area, but at least stay close to him and narrow down his angles. To back down like that it's just plain stupid.

Yup. I was absolutely livid at Cahill.

Individual, amateurish mistakes did us in today.

Would you agree that Willian has been our most improved and most influential player this season?

And do you not think that maybe,he might even improve more under the right manager?

Yes, he has been the most in form player (arguably the only one) in an absolutely awful team.

Yes, he might even improve a bit, but no, he'll never be at the level of the wingers i expect in the attack of a team that wants to win CL, he simple doesn't have the end product of players like Griezmann, Bale, Reus or the potential of promising youngsters to achieve this level.

Costa was back today. Great performance from him. I thought we played well enough to win today, two brain farts cost us (Oscar pen, Matic penalty).

I saw something that I haven't seen in a long time from this team though. The will to bounce back from a goal back down. On wards and up wards.

As I was saying in the match day thread, Mikel's introduction was actually a positive one. We were getting smashed in midfield and his introduction completely changed that and allowed us to dominate in the second half.

We were unlucky to win today tbh. Can't fault the players, they actually showed effort (apart from Oscar who was pathetic).

I was at the game today and that's exactly how I called it. Nice Skipper

Hiddink was shocking in his line-up and decisions. It took ages before making a sub into the 2nd half.

I just want us to become a winning team again. We had a perfectly winnable game there, but some players somehow contrived to fuck everything up. It seems the damage Mourinho did to the club will take some serious repairing.

And I will agree with you up to a point. We are no longer one of the top european heavyweights and wont be able to attract the calibre of the players you speak about. So, for now, Willian is one of our outstanding players, without whom we would be in a lot deeper shit.

So instead of calling him unworthy of playing for Chelsea you should be praising him for some (not all) of his recent performances. If we had a few more with his commitment, drive and energy I'm sure we wouldn't be in our current demise

I didn't call him unworthy of playing for Chelsea, the context where the discussion begun was different, i'm not denying he is out best performer right now.

Hiddink will pick youth they said. I don't get rid of the impression that Hiddink will go the short term route and play as many established players as possible. Why the heck will no manager finally resolve the Azpilicueta/Ivanovic makehsift defence?

Also replacing Zouma with Cahill was a horrible decision.

Sloppy, wayward and unlucky performance. We clearly lacked intelligence in attack. Esp Oscar's and Willian's decision making and off-the ball movement was horrific. The number of times they just passed the ball over the touchline was incredible.

Also Courtois, whilst unlucky with the goals had some really nervous momenents dropping the ball or parrying it just a few yards away. miserable performance.

At least Costa started scoring again even though he undid himself when getting that suspension. Remy however will be eager to impress the new manager so could be blessing in disguise

he best news however is that Hazard is back and raring to go

every little thing is going wrong this season for us.it is probably karma from the football gods for having so many youth/u21's out on loan and our staff and management running club being fucking be braindead arsewipes.

there is to many fucking problems in one season for the club management to see straight and we the fans can see the problems yet the management are fucking blind as a bat in the daylight sunlight.

management ?

I think the best news is Costa finding the net and looking more like his old self.

He will be straight back in v Palace on the 3rd
