Leicestersaint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 David needs to buck his ideas up- he is not in it at all. And Guly is back to his old ways.
Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 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?
Glasgow_Saint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 I was very critical of Guly earlier this season.............. But he's been fantastic tonight and last few weeks
Ohio Saint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Nice block on Lampard. Gotta give credit when they do it right.
melmacian_saint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 We don't look half as composed with Jos at the back.
Thedelldays Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 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...
obelisk Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 I see we're trying to walk it into the net again. Any chance of a few shots once we're up there end?

Leicestersaint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 We look OK passign it around until they break - and then our defence looks so brittle and the midfield are all over the placethat a goal looks likely. If we can keep it to 1 - 0 until half time we might have a plan B.
St Chalet Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Luke Shaw looks pure class, just eased Mata out there.
S-Clarke Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Was alaways going to be a goal there, we were being takeen apart down the inside right - time and time again. And as we keep showing, we concede goals at such **** times!!!
Lazlo78 Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 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
Saint Without a Halo Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 typical goal in the 44th minute just how many do we concede in the last few minutes of each half!
Saintandy666 Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 We're hopelessly out of our depth. Damage limitation is the key. Protect our goal difference.
BotleySaint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 About 5 players in the penalty area all dithering and marking no-one. Easy for Chelsea.
obelisk Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Conceded again at the end of the half. Quite sloppy there.
Zlavik Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 ............. We are just watching the ball when they are attacking...
Sheaf Saint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Yet again undone by a ****-poor clearance. Can't argue with the finish but should have been dealt with sooner.
Edmonton Saint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Mickey Mouse defending there again. This is going to be a rout.
Popester Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 They can score when they like to be honest - fearful of the second half - Good possession from us but powder puff up front
St Chalet Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 FFS. Hooiveld has the turning circle of a bus. We miss the opportunity to clear and quelle ****ing surprise it's 2-0
BadgerBadger Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 oh dear = this outcome is only going one way
CanadaSaint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Davis is the most hideous marker of space we've got - that's all he does, mark space.
Stu Man Do Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 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.
Bananaman Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 I hate the PL.. so boring and predictable... I hope we can stay up so we can strive for mid table obscurity next season.
S-Clarke Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 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.
Leicestersaint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Our defence is really very poor - the two CBs are not good enough and the midfield are not helping. We could easily concede half a dozen tonight. I think NA needs to make changes now - get david off and Guly - there isn't much we can do about Hooifeld and Yoshida.
VectisSaint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 typical goal in the 44th minute just how many do we concede in the last few minutes of each half! Lack of concentration due to inadequate fitness levels for this level of football. Saintsfit is not good enough for the PL. Need to be Strachanfit.
Thedelldays Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 (edited) 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 Edited 16 January, 2013 by Thedelldays
Hedgehog Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 F***ing poor defending, and too many passes backwards and side wards. You are not going to score by keeping on passing and going backwards for hell sake!
mightysaints Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Terrible defending,school errors yet again costing us dear. Also Davis should have hit the target
Saints foreva Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Jos was so slow to get up for their 2nd goal and then our players just stood there and watched Hazard smash it in. We love conceding goals between the 35th and 45th minute. Game over anyway.
MOSaint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Hooiveld is having a shocker, pretty much everything Chelsea have created is going through his side of the pitch.
CB Fry Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 We've got a chance of getting something from this game which mathmatically equal to the chances of Man United getting relegated.
Junior Mullet Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Yoshida limping slightly. Looking good up front but no cutting edge. Defensively w look weak.
Saint_Donovan Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 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. 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.
BotleySaint Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 We have played well. It's so damn frustrating when we do concede it's just idiotic goals that could easily be avoided. A total lack of organisation at the back.
Bensfcno1 Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 Yoshida and Hooiveld are clueless at defending. All Yoshida had to do was clear it out for a corner or smash it away. Please bring on Gaston and ricky at HT AND two new CB's b4 monday.
S-Clarke Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 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.
St Chalet Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 We've got a chance of getting something from this game which mathmatically equal to the chances of Man United getting relegated. 325-1 for the win if anyone is feeling brave.
northam soul Posted 16 January, 2013 Posted 16 January, 2013 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.
