We used to have some pretty good comebacks..when we had the players to do so now we seem to go down and stay down or prance around for a bit or somehow the goalie becomes amazing for the first time ever!

Yeah their comebacks are just ahhhhhhhhhhh.But good as they are crazy team like them with the players they have are having to comeback so often in games.If we're not title contenders then how are they?Cant always comeback.Their defence is shite

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Keep saying they can't comeback, but somehow 99% of the times they do!

Exactly, the fact that they need to come from behind in so many games is a sign of how we are still in this. Yes we don't have anywhere close to the (STRIKER) threat they do but i would take our best defensive 5 over thiers all day long. We are only 4 points behind and proved when we played them that we are more than a match for them. If we can get a result vs city then why not. As norwich proved man u can be stopped in attack and broken down in defence so, we are still in this race.

Newcastle lost at home to swansea as well which could be seen as an upset as well...

First time ever i have done an accumalator (Everton, Man u, chelsea, newcastle ALL DNB) and they all lost LOL.

Hangeland has been sent off in the Fulham v Sunderland game. He will now miss the league game against us on 28th November.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Never a red card imho but it's a big boost for us that he will miss the derby. He's their best defender and the biggest threat from corners.

[Laylabelle 9,341]

Very soft red card...wouldnt be surprised if they appeal...

This is what annoys me about refs theres no consitency between them all..that to any other ref could've easily been a yellow but he decided to give it a red.And where he one week may give another tackle a yellow,someone else may have seen it and its a red.Understand under pressure and only see it once but still

Unfortunately, the law says otherwise.

Sunderland 2-1

EPL's referees are officially the worst in the world. So many stupid errors and poor decisions week in week out.

If EPL wants to stay as the best league FA needs to sort this shitty referee quality out asap.

[Laylabelle 9,341]

Espically when these decisons cost

[Jase 43,479]

Hangeland sent off and think Ruiz picked up a hamstring injury. Went off injured. Don't wish anything bad on him but I hope he will miss the upcoming match against us.

AVB

''we were in control from the first minute, until the last, we are proud of what we have done here, i don't think the sending off changed the game, we looked in control, we were very very good from the first minute until the last, the feeling of the result is indifferent for us when we played so well and took the risk in the second half to be so bold, the feeling we have in the dressing room now is pride for each other.''

Someone tell the they lost 5-2

[Jase 43,479]

Speaking of AVB...

Rob Harris ‏@RobHarris

AVB on Sky: "I think the sending-off determined the game". AVB in press conference: "I don't think it changed the running of the game"

Chris Foy has been appointed to take charge of our match against Man City this week. Am I right thinking he hasn't refereed a single Chelsea match since the infamous QPR game last season?
