Chelsea vs Everton

[NattyBlue 44]

Subs would've still happened even if ray was here, be fucking honest.

We should've lost, deserved a loss. Title goes to Utd or Arsenal, I've been very positive but I know we needed a win against our bogey side today and we gave them 55 minutes of the ball in the 2nd half.

In three games everything can change. Looks like i am the only one on this forum who still believes.

Goodnight everyone, I'm going to go get drunk at a party and allow football for the next month.

Will you be back when we find our feet again ?

[eldo 868]

Agree. Members who think that we should be happy with this performance. They are unbeliavable, and the ones who put -1 in the comments that say that our momment is really difficult. Unbeliavable. We are playing really bad, some players seems that just dont care, we will have 3 difficult games, there are 5 teams fighting for 4 CL places, and Chelsea is the one who is playing the worst football...Chelsea is the football club that has the highest wages in the world. Should we be happy with this relegation football ? Gimme a break.

First half was good. In second we let everything go.

Why are you concerned for wages? Do you pay them?

Well at least the Everton fans were happy while having inbred sex with their brother/sister, I think some of them might have AIDS anyway so lets hope it does not spread on the way back to Liverpool and Merseyside

You would like to think the money you put into the club relates to some people's pay

Tbf the players don't deserve the high amount they get anyway. But atm they certainly aren't performing anywhere near good enough to be earning their wages.

Mixed feelings about our first half for me. Good possession and good pressure when Everton had the ball but we weren't creating enough (real) chances. Our only real chances came from set-pieces, Terry attempt and Kalou header. Everton was defending well. Lucky to get the penalty (Anelka tapped the ball too far and just ran into him) but i'm not complaining.

It's been ages since we haven't started a game too slow or crappy so huge improvement. The off the ball movement needs to improve though. The options for a player on the ball to pass too is incredibly low.

So we need more movement and need to keep on the pressure. If we do that, we'll win.

Good to have Terry back. Am I the only one thinks Ivan and JT are football-twins? They're so much a like.

That triple tackle by Ivan was amazing and funny at the same time. So much determination, it's driving the Everton players crazy

Very poor second half. It almost looked as if the players settled for a one goal lead. Everton dominated the second half and made us look like a midtable-side playing a away game. I don't like to single out people but this draw really is CA's fault.

It all started at taking off Anelka for Ramires. Why would you take of a attacker for a midfielder when you're defending a one goal lead against a side that always gives troubles your side and with the defensive problems the team's had? Horrible decision. And than he took off Bosingwa for Paulo. Also a horrible decision. Every Everton attack came down that left side (our right side). And even though Paulo really tries, everybody knows it's very easy to get past him. Everton dangerous left wing + Paulo Fereirra = Chelsea headaches. Baines went past him as if he wasn't even there and Everton scored.

I've already stated many times CA ''subbing'' pretty much sucks and cost us 2 points.

Do not make me sound like I'm abandoning the club, I take offence to that.

Call it a knee-jerk if you want, I really couldn't care less. I'll always stick with the club, through thick-and-thin, but today was disgusting. Like I said, I'll be back for our next game. But for this one, spare me your sarcastic comments implying I'm one of those fake fans.

Thanks.

Everton had a better bench today.

[NattyBlue 44]

They had a better everything in the second half

I agree with every word from this post!!

First half was far from being good. Was avarage, and in the second hald was awful. What im saying is, when a supporter compain about bad results, some call them glory hunters. But see, an Everton supporter cant ask for their team to play a top club football and fight for Premier League title. The amount of money invested on the club is not at the same level the kind of money invested in Manchester United, City or Chelsea.

A City supporter couldnt ask for the Premier League tittle two years ago, but now they can. Same to Chelsea. If you ask Terry to play here more years instead going to City, he will say that will only do that if you pay him more money, other ones just leave when you dont pay them what they want, like Joe Cole. They must play a football that is good enough to fight for trophies. Period.

Is the same to managers whot got loads of money.

Exactly.

We may have dominated posetion but we didn't create any clear chances from open play, after we lost the midfield battle in the 2nd half it was painfully obvious that we were going to do nothing upfront so our players kept clearing the ball.

In 97 minutes we created 1 clear chance.

Somehow Ashely missed it.

Where's the passion? Where's the ball control and the calm under pressure? Where's the urgency? How can it just disappear like this? Did it leave the team with Ray Wilkins?

I'm afraid this squad is just deflated beyond belief and possibly repair, at least in the League. I know we're only 2 points back of Arsenal, and there's a long way to go, but at this point I'm almost prepared to just say let's make an FA Cup run and a run at the CL title, without much regard for the league. Sad part is, if they play the way they have in the league in the knockout rounds of the CL, it'll be a short campaign. Hard to keep positive in the midst of so many negatives, but we've got to stay behind the team.
