Katalinic Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Who is that chick with the Chelski team? That one I want to bang David Luiz
dubai_phil Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 On the bright side won't have to listen to those taters again this season Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
hypochondriac Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Really don't care about the result. Expected to lose and possibly heavily as we have zero strength in depth. My one and only concern is Fonte. I reckon if we don't bring anyone in this week then losing Jose could mean we lose next week and that is much more important.
VectisSaint Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 I agree, it's the movement off the ball that we would benefit from, plus decent ball control. No, no, no. He is not good enough for the PL and will be out the door in January. Have you learned nothing from the experts on this forum?
Saint86 Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 well, never mind ey. Rather a saint thana chelsea fan anyway. At least will turn it on against villa now. Thought the ref was **** but chelsea were good today
Saint Without a Halo Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Well thats our confidence shattered and Villas back just before we play them!
Ohio Saint Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 David Luiz LMAO! Him and the one in the dug out.
obelisk Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Shocking stuff from Saints after we scored. I can only hope that was a one-off grim performance because we need to get back to something much better than that next week.
MOSaint Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Chelsea played well, but can't help but feel we gave up the moment they equalised.
Ohio Saint Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 I don't really think confidence will be shattrered. At least they will have learned something about playing Chelski for the league game
James Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Christ we really have been on the end of some awful reffing this season. Never a pen and a clear foul on JWP before the fourth. Mike Dean really is a spineless **** of a ref.
Leicestersaint Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Poor, poor, poor - another Sunderland display.
View From The Top Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Far too good for us and it looked like, if I'm honest, they'd be told not to bust a gut. Jose's injury is a huge blow.
Jack Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Our habit of having a decent half then falling apart and conceding in the last 10 minutes has got to stop. I never thought we'd maintain the discipline and work rate of the first half hour, but we fell to pieces. Poor in possession, we're forever putting ourselves in the sh*t by trying to do too much in tight areas instead of spreading it and playing the easy ball, and keeping possession. Glad we're out, in a way. Just hope Jose's injury isn't too bad.
LaptopSaint Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Well thats our confidence shattered and Villas back just before we play them! Why will that shatter our confidence? Most teams in the Premier League would have been hammered by Chelsea playing like that. Some days the other team are just better - usually when they've spent about three hundred million on players.

I reckon if we don't bring anyone in this week then losing Jose could mean we lose next week and that is much more important. It shows (obviously) how important good quality cover is in every position. We need to buy players that are good enough to start every week, not for cover as some have suggested for this and other positions. Never buy for cover, IMO, buy to improve the team. No, no, no. He is not good enough for the PL and will be out the door in January. Have you learned nothing from the experts on this forum? My mistake entirely...
Lighthouse Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Well thats our confidence shattered and Villas back just before we play them! In much the same way the QPR game shattered Chelsea's confidence no doubt.
Jack Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 embarrassing. pick your strongest team What the f*ck are you on about? The only change that wasn't enforced was Rodriguez in for Lambert, which worked well. The game was over when he ****ed about with bringing in de Ridder and Lee.
Ohio Saint Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Reserve team doctor Eva Carneiro Holy crap!!!!
Saint Charlie Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Fonte injury the main issue. Chelsea are a top side and we didnt play Lambert and Ramirez. Need to do some January business now. The likes of Hooiveld, Lee and De Ridder won't keep you up.
Edmonton Saint Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 I don't agree. Lots of passion but with little star quality on the pitch. It's slowly becoming Saints reserves vs. Chelsea first XI so a loss is no big surprise... no need for overreactions! Not an overreaction IMO, I saw very little out there today. Whole team seemed happy to back off and let Chelsea have full reign of St. Marys. There was very little there to get the crowd excited, No crunching tackles, no mazy runs, no sweeping cross field passes.. Nothing. We seemed devoid of ideas today and that's why I am extremely worried ,especially given our recent league form when we have managed to grab draws from the jaws of victory..
RobM Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Well thats our confidence shattered and Villas back just before we play them! If our coaching and management team do their job properly, this won't be confidence shattering but motivation to set things right against Villa. It's a very negative attitude to lose a game and all your confidence for the next game at the same time.

MOSaint Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Also let's not forget what we did to Villa after Arsenal battered us.
stknowle Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 embarrassing. pick your strongest team From those 2, I'd pick Chelsea:blush:
Restark19 Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Doubtless we'll now here absolutely nothing about Jose until 2 days before the Villa game where we find out he won't play in that game, then nothing again
Saint Without a Halo Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 A bid for Lampard wouldnt be a bad idea
Stepgar Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Expected the loss, didn't expect to lose 5-1 though. Not sure how we will fair up at theirs because they made us look extraordinarily average at best and I can see another hammering. Come to think of it I could see a few of these sort of results over the next 7ish games. It does go to show we lack of quality in depth. But hey lets just sit back and see what happens - you never know this is the Premier league after all.
Thedelldays Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 thought we were pretty good for the first 25 mins or so...or until they equalised.. rodriguez looked really good (when we were on the front foot) and scored a great goal with a great ball by puncheon but when chelsea got into their groove...there was little we could do..JWP is a good prospect but he had no chance in the middle...both fullbacks got done plenty of times which meant the CBs had to cover more ground...J-rod offers almost nothing in holding the ball up... it seemed after there 3rd...it was almost a save your energy exercise... hope jose is ok...did not see a leg brace go on him (as it never i dont think)...but always looks bad if stretchered off... boruc did well enough...1 fumble and 1 outstanding save...nothing he really could have done with the goals.... one thing...we were all told that QPR beating this lot meant nothing and they are still shyte..so losing to a better chelsea will also mean very little.. a first 11 chelsea vs us with our best players out...always going to go one way oh well.. one thing that is concerning.....the villa game is so massive and for all the talk of adkins saying we have lost 2 in 10...we have not won many and still below a rubbish villa.....lose at villa and it all looks bleak again
Stepgar Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Also let's not forget what we did to Villa after Arsenal battered us. That would be quite funny though to do it to them as again.
adrian lord Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Apart from Fonte injury, nothing to worry about here.
BotleySaint Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Made some quick calculations and estimates: Turnbull - £1m Ivanovic - £9m Lampard - £11m Cole - £5m David Luiz - £26m Cahill £7m Azpilicueta £7m Ramires £18.5m Mata £24m Oscar £25m Moses £9m Marin £6.5m Hazard £32m Ba £7.5m £187.5m Boruc £0 Yoshida £2m Fonte £2m Hooiveld £500k Shaw £0 Schneiderlin £1.2m De Ridder £1m S Davis £0 Ward-Prowse £0 Cork £1m Guly £1m Puncheon £500k Rodriguez £7m £16.2 m

We seemed devoid of ideas today and that's why I am extremely worried ,especially given our recent league form when we have managed to grab draws from the jaws of victory.. Ever think they were told not to go charging around, flying into 50/50 challenges and risking injury or cards? We played very solidly for half an hour, but when we went behind, it was obvious we weren't going to get anything from it so eased up. A replay would've been no good for us. I think NA set them up to attack, and win it or lose it. Wigan, Fulham, QPR, Sunderland with replays they won't have wanted.
Restark19 Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 hope jose is ok...did not see a leg brace go on him (as it never i dont think)...but always looks bad if stretchered off... pretty sure after Lallanas injury NA said that it was standard procedure to put the leg in a brace unless it was a very minor injury
Ohio Saint Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Apart from Fonte injury, nothing to worry about here. Yep. I was over the result well before the end of the match. The injury is my ONLY concern after this game.
RobM Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 good news is QPR have to play a replay... Excellent, lets hope they win it. Villa staying in the gup is good news too.
Jack Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 A bid for Lampard wouldnt be a bad idea Who would pay his wages?!
obelisk Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 What really depresses me is the lack of good chances being created by Saints. Shape was good today for half an hour or so but after we scored Chelsea just seemed to be able to stroll in and around our penalty area without too much trouble.
Norm Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Oh well, I had it as a 0-4 loss before the start. Sadly, class told and we were lucky it wasn't more than 5. Now for the Villa.
CanadaSaint Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 One of the few positives from today is that most of our rivals in the relegation stakes either have a replay to face or have made it through to Round Four.
Dangermouth Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 There will be replays for Sunderland, Stoke, Fulham, QPR, West Brom and Wigan. Newcastle are the only top-flight side out. That's good news. Don't care about the loss; do care about Fonte's injury though
Thedelldays Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 thought the 3-0 loss at leeds was worse than this
Micky Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 So that was our attempt at winning the FA cup. Nice one Nige, nice one... Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk 2
david in sweden Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Hiow many times have we fallen to pieces after the opposition score in the 45 th minute?......-after that it was (sadly) .......predictable.
Dr Who? Posted 5 January, 2013 Posted 5 January, 2013 Thank god that was the cup, and I went for a cycle!
