Chelsea vs Fulham

[The Big Drog 1,110]

Slow...plodding....predictable...sloppy. All words to sum up that half. Take a quick look at the midfield 4 we are playing today. You have Mikel , Ballack , Lampard and Joe Cole , not one of them are known for their fast closing down. It clearly means we lack legs in the middle of the pitch. Because of the system it also means that Fulham get too much time on the ball because the diamond takes too long to shift its self up the pitch.

For the first goal questions must be raised about Ferreira's positioning , where is he ?

Also I must say that those corners in the first half were the worst I have ever seen from a side above the age limit of under 14's , they were depressingly bad.

Despite our managers threats of indecent exposure , we very clearly need 2 new players , a new striker and someone who can play at the tip of the diamond.

Clown aye? So Lampard, Terry, Drogba, and Mikel didnt play??? These players are getting 200,000 pounds a week. They should be able to play everyday...

I'll agree with that. When I was younger I'd have played from I got up till it was dark.

I usually didnt get out of bad until 6pm but still..........

Ancelotti should be tearing strips off everyone at the break. Another 45 mins of that is just not acceptable. I know Fulham are a tough nut to crack and their results recently back that up, but we're supposed to be going for the title. We've lost so many stupid points in the last few weeks and need to get our act together......FAST

Is it me or has Lampard been more influential in this role? And why is Ballack taking corners when he cant lift the ball higher then his knees?

[bigbluewillie 1,806]

Ancelloti i'm fucking well fed up with him.

is kakuta on the bench? i know it's a lot to ask an inexperienced 18 year old to dig us out of the shit, but at least he has a bit of skill with the ball at his feet, and has an idea of how to attack.

[Alee. 182]

I'll agree with that. When I was younger I'd have played from I got up till it was dark.

i bet it wasnt a 115x74 yard pitch though mate, and it wasn't against one of the best defenses in the Prem.

Anything will be better than this current crock of wank. Do anything, please, bring Jose down from the stands and let him take over the half time team talk and the 2nd half.

Carlo should bring Kakuta on for Ballack

[Alee. 182]

I bet Jose's laughing at us right now.

[5354 204]

yeah. we really need someone to field the tip of the diamond. its not very well done.

drogba is now dropping deep(something that anelka does often..., and now we miss him!)

[Alee. 182]

Drogba looks like he's had a wank.

Rep given.

I dunno lads. As much as it hurts to say it, i feel we are going to have a tough January! The way we are playing is not amounting to shit. Our formation is to easy to defend against and our fearless manager is too stuborn to change it. A good Manager would realise that Fulham are clogging the midfield and causing us to revert to high balls into the box instead of quick passes along the ground (that we mastered towards the end of last season). Unlike Scolari, Carlo has a plan B. He just doesnt want to use it.....

[Alee. 182]

Drogba is being humiliated by Pantsil. What went wrong?

Not using it is just as bad. We simply HAVE to buy someone in january.

[Steve 10,227]

We have turned to shit in these last few weeks, its disgraceful. The players need a right kick up the backside. I hope carlo isnt being to soft with them because id be fucking ripping into them right now.

[Steve 10,227]

Second half underway, step the fuck up chels.

A breath of fresh air at the bridge would really go a long way....
