Weren't you one of those bitching pre-match about the line-up and RDM?

We didn't play sexy football due to Bertrand now did we? He needs to stop playing there.

I will quote what you just wrote up there:

We played some sexy football in the first half.

Who the fuck cares about 'sexy football' if the results are like yesterday? There were definitely some exciting attacking movements every now and then, while also keeping a clean sheet at the back and I cant think of any reasons to be unhappy about that. Di Matteo got it spot on by playing Bertrand on the wing, or can you honestly say that you would've preferred someone like Sturridge there and have Chelsea playing more of that sexy football you seem to be craving for and the result would have been something like 2-2, with Ben Arfa raping our left flank?

In the second half we sat back and focused on keeping the 2-0 lead. That wasn't very entertaining to watch, but that is what every top club does when they're comfortably ahead. Why waste any more energy than what is necessary? You should know that they don't play the game only for the fans' entertainment.

More importantly what the fuck is 'sexy football'? I personally found RDMs tactics, to completely nullify Newcastle's attack, very 'sexy'.

This is why in the back of my mind I thought RDM at least will do sort of good, cause he has the experience of the PL. And that helps out a lot when setting up game against other PL opponents.

Not to mention he was already at the club as assistant manager/temp manager for the last season.

Well the dictionary definition of sexy is - Sexually attractive or stimulating.

These perverted people want to be turned on by the type of football we play.

Disgusting.

I wish I can down vote this comment. He played there to shut down, Ben Arfa, and he did his job. We will see Bertrand against teams with tricky RW (Man U.) just like we will see Ramires for teams with good LW. RDM is only concerned with winning. Nothing else.

first time I remember the term was when Ruud Gullit managed us and the barcodes

And that's what he's being paid for.

Here is a lil' something for all of the CFC Mikel hatas out there:

BTW I didn't get this from the Club, but from @totalchelsea..so hatas go ahead & find holes in his game

He doesn't assist and score

Jokes aside, he impressed me against Newcastle and I hope he keeps doing it.

That is what we pay Brana for

What about the number of time he loses the ball?number of unsuccessful tackles?

Passing should be the least important aspect in the role he plays. That's why generally in the double pivot a player like him is played alongside a 'passer' or DLP. Compare Mikel's stats shown there to Lampard who is meant to be this player (which is 85.6% over the 3 games).

He was great the other day against Newcastle, Meireles also did well to help him out a lot.

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

1 good game from 3 isn't enough.

[robdog 2,084]

so you believe Mikel only had one good match this season? You don't think he played well last season, especially a year ago when his Father was kidnapped? I thought he played extremely well under those circumstances.
