Tautvix 1,321 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 And we still have very tough away games left. Man Utd, Everton, WBA, West Ham. We will struggle in all of these with todays performance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The result itself is decent, it's field like this where you expect points to be dropped. What bothered me was the performance. We really could've done better. Just like after losing at Spurs, now it's crucial to trash the next opponents so we can get our confidence back. Drop Diego and go for the false 9. You could argue that Burnley are not the side who do not deserve to snatch us a point at home, but a good result it was n't. A good result means we could have won and they could have won. But they did not even threaten - except for the fluke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAM09 7,056 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Have to worry about Conte's confidence in our back up CB options. Why was Ake called back, for fun?I see it as two points dropped. Should have been 2 up inside 7 minutes and concede thanks to Matic giving a FK away trying to clear the ball with a backheel. [emoji52] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was hardly going to be easy scoring a goal, particularly when we're a team who likes to go through the middle and not really get many crosses into the box. I think we are fortunate they adopted that attitude. Had they really gone for it we might have been in even deeper trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is he isn't going to start Ake or Zouma in a league game until they're fully ready to play in the back three system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't surprise me that you think so. You are always too pessimist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laylabelle 9,535 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 We had 2 shots on target..our last one was the goal in the 7th minute so wasn't like we played well and dropped points we were pretty crap. More so after their goal but will always have games like this. Just can't let it be the start of a shit run or anything.

cosmicway 1,333 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 The fluke is part of the game. I scored against a national team goalkeeper in a park. The ball went high -to the roof if there was a roof- my teammates shouted "what a load of rubbish" at me, but then it dipped down hit the post and in. The keeper needed a rocket to reach near that ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it's not, but it's how you develop the mentality and tactical awareness that leads to matchtime. Conte is picking his side on merit, and we only see part of what goes into that. I didn't want Luiz to play either, but it's not like Conte is just ignoring players on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's inevitable that the more he plays, the worst it will get. At least he's suspended for our next match to get some rest regardless of what Conte wants.
