LDN Blue 7,903 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I thought we played quite decent, not brilliant but decent. We are moving the ball much faster then the last couple of weeks.I felt we were totally dominated. Our passing was awful, we didn't create any real goal threats till late on and we're lucky not to be 2-0 down because Everton are looking more and more confident. We're not using the full width of the pitch, our midfield is totally neutralised and our forwards aren't seeing any of the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostas 1,468 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Make no mistake that wasn't a good performance. We might have had a few good chances but they only masked our boring boring play..Lampard has been abysmal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubber bullets 1,183 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I think people are not going to call it atleast a decent perfromance unless we play football like Barcelona, like I said it was not brilliant but it has been decent.

MetsajCFC 1,255 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 You watching the same match I am? We were 100% dominated. Took 30minuts for our first real chance. Awful.If you want domination go watch tiki-taka Barcelona. We have had GREAT chances, we just haven't taken them. It's not always about posession.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted February 19, 2011 Author Share Posted February 19, 2011 I thought we played quite decent, not brilliant but decent. We are moving the ball much faster then the last couple of weeks.Agreed.Everton are a decent side, we're not going to get a dozen clear-cut chances. We're playing better than Monday, put it that way.

chrismada9 1,948 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Everton are dominating our midfield at the moment, and it's really difficult to make a decent pass. We can't string a good set of passes together at all. Every time our midfield has the ball, they're all over us like a rash and we can't function. That's what a David Moyes side does to you. Lampard is too fucking slow as well!! He's getting suffocated of possession too much and it's getting robbed of the ball far too easily.Everton 120% the better team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krypt 241 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Awful half of football from us. Same old Chelsea. Same old tactics. Same old Carlo Ancelotti.Ignoring this "penalty decision" too because it doesn't change that fact, we played, like shit.Exactly if we need a pen to beat everton at home ffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Term-X 7,891 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Hungover, I missed the first half. Doesn't sound too good though, heres to a better 2nd half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall 315 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 To be fair I don't think we were THAT bad, they didn't really have any good chances and we had 2 good chances and a bangon penalty. Even Kalou has played reasonably well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bir_CFC 3,455 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I love you Lampard, but you have to sit. Zhirkov on, put him where Malouda is and Malouda drops to Frank's position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostas 1,468 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Had Mikel and Ferreira not been extremely solid Everton would have had a dozen chances. They move the ball much quicker than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetsajCFC 1,255 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 We've had 2 or 3.Malouda 2x, Ivan header, Terry , Ramires, thats 5 and a decent saldo for 1st half vs a motivated Everton whos best chance to win silverware is to give it all in FA Cup. Stop being so negative. A team like chelsea doesent need million chances, we ought to use the 5-6 / half to score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 The fundamental tactics of football have to lie with possession. If you don't dominate this, you 1) find it harder to create chances & 2) run the risk of conceding. Badly.We must improve this first and foremost.
