Guly & Davis start and we leave Lambert & Ramirez on the bench. Nice one, Nigel. You really are a clueless ****! People keep going on about how our goalkeepers have cost us points this season but how many points have Nigel's negative tactics cost us?

oh come on......we have been the better team here...

 

ramirez has been woeful at best in away games...

How is it not 2-0? Scary defending.

 

You have to give credit to Chelsea as well. For once they played excellent football and we actually got people back to defend. Morgan's block was vital, Yoshida's was kamikaze-class.

 

And I think I just saw Luke Shaw own Mata completely...

 

Oh and 2-0 :(

2 good for us when we fail to play our best attacking players. The other week proved we really aren't strong enough to hold off Chelsea defensively I'd much rather have seen us give it a go with Gaston and Ricky. Saving them for a game against another difficult opponent in Everton might not make any difference.

We're hopelessly out of our depth. Damage limitation is the key. Protect our goal difference.

 

I don't think we've looked out of our depth at all, that's just a knee-jerk over reaction. For the majority of that half we've looked composed, kept the ball well, but have lacked real threat. Chelsea have sniffed our weakness and are getting in behind Jos on most occasions. He's not been great.

Look. We were always going to lose this.

 

Our goal difference advantage will probably be wiped out here and at old Trafford

 

There was no way they would lose 3 on the bounce at home

 

Every goal we concede here will be the fault of sloppy defending

 

Game over and on that note

 

I'm out !!!

 

Enjoy your ***** fest

We've only looked composed on the ball because chelsea have allowed us to keep the ball in our own half, as soon as we press towards the final third and come under pressure we lack any real quality.

It's chelsea though, so there will look like there's a gulf between us at times. There's not much we can do about that is there? Pointless analyzing this game. Doesn't hurt us.

its no good playing football in the middle third and then going backwards all the time. Its not defenders we need its a better quality midfield who can keep the ball in the final third and unlock teams.

Its not just against chelsea we have been doing this all season and until this is addressed we will not improve.

You do not score goals playing football in our own half.
