Not to say anything about the 5 yellows we picked up today compared with their two. How did we ever deserve 5 yellows in that game!?

 

the referee put in one of the most incompetent displays I've seen in a while....and that's saying something...I hope he watches his own performance on video.

....and even BT's " slow-mo" replay showed that Falcao dived and it wasn't a pen. He did get that decision right.

 

Our two shouts would ....on another day....both have resulted in penalties, but not perhaps.... at Stamford Bridge.

 

You've got big troubles, Jose.....and "another big trouble" returns from his suspension next match. The next time he gets in a punch-up... it'll be a 10 match ban.

That 1st half performance by the ref was one of the worst I have ever witnessed :thumbdown:

 

How did we get 3 players booked for their 1st tackle of the game, yet Ramires got away with about 5 before he was eventually booked.

The 2 pens for us, he had a perfect view of each, but failed to see VVD's shirt virtually being taken off his back, and he seemed to be about to blow for a pen with Mane but changed his mind. Maybe Mane made just a bit too much of it, and paid the price by getting booked the next time he was taken out!!

The icing on the cake was reacting to Chelsea fans claiming the ball wasn't in the right place as Davis was about to take a corner ..... yes Chelsea fans appealing and he jogged 20 yards to check it!!

I'd loved to have seen Moronio's meltdown if he'd been on the receiving end of those decisions!!

Sums it up. The whistle indecision and corner quadrant nonsense suggest a weak referee. Mourinho got to him.

personally I thought the ref did OK, it looked a penalty in realtime and a weak ref could have taken the easy option by giving it.A massive call.

i was moaning about him booking ours for 1 foul and Ramires not getting booked until his fourth. The ref wasn't looking at the the shirt pull to be fair.

I feel he is not a bad ref

Fair enough but I'm not really sure what you mean. If it looked a penanlty in real time and the ref went to blow the whistle and changed his mind why is that good reffing? If he wasn't looking at the penalty area when a corner was being taken then he should have been. Wher else should he look? (maybe he was watching Chelsea fans playing up near the corner flag). And what about that corner quadrant rubbish.

In his post match interview on Sky it seemed like he was almost daring Chelsea to sack him! lol

 

I thought this too! He basically said he was the best manager in the world & Chelsea could do no better! He definitely isn't on this planet

Blaming the ref is a classic defection tactic by a losing manager, but in this case the whole world could see through that as they weren't on the wrong side of decisions.

 

Serious questions are going to be asked about his ability to turn it round and hopefully he won't. If he had any class or really was special he'd admit to his and his teams mistakes, offer some praise to saints and then tell the world he'd be working hard to out things right. Instead he acts like a ****.

I think you're making a meal out of nothing. What does it matter what he did with his whistle just as long as he didn't blow it? It's an automatic reaction to start to raise your whistle in anticipation of a foul which may not actually materialise. Surely it's better then to hesitate before making your final decision. And what was wrong with checking the position of the ball at the corner? It only took a couple of moments and it was his responsibility as it was the opposite corner to his two assistants. He won't be the first to miss a shirt being pulled at a corner and in these circumstances you would look to more help from your assistants although normally they would be reluctant to make such a significant decision from the touchline.

 

He was ok.

Agreed. Something is obviously wrong throughout the team and it would do take somebody really special to turn this round. I don't think it's him.

Yep, that's him.

 

Seriously, looking at it objectively, what have you got against his performance?

 

how come AGAIN, you are the only one in the football world that thinks that about the officials

 

his first half performance was attrocious

You are deluded, of course we'd want someone else he missed to stone cold penalties for saints and missed another number of fouls, however koeman didn't mention that unlike the deluded Jose

Sorry Whitey the bloke had absolute stinker, Ramirez taking 4 goes to get a card despite trashing Saints players with vigour twice in his opening contacts, Romeu clips Hazard early on as he has done him for speed covering defender in place, bang in the book instead of a polite word. His performance can summed up by Pelle making a solid defensive block on Hazard in the middle of a skirmish of players goes down like he has been taken out by a sniper in the floodlights yet again, ref books Graziano yet he hasn't had to have one single word with him for 80 minutes about fouling anyone.

 

I think when he got home to his wife for tea he probably told her that he had a bad day at the office, when she asked.

(And that ungrateful whatsit still had the temerity to criticise him post match).

He was awful. I've explained why I think that. Just add that we got 5 bookings to their 3. That didn't reflect the play in my opinion. Their's a lot of pressure on refs and generally thye do well but this one seemed to yield to the pressure of the home crowd and to Mourinho's constant carping about being hard done by. He was better second half. I'll give him that.

Wonder if they would have been mentioned by Ron if we had lost?

It was a penalty. Clearly. Falcao didn't help himself by going down slightly early but if he hadn't he would still have been cleaned out by the keeper. Which makes it a penalty under the current laws; it's not the laws from years ago, you don't have to be totally upended for it to be a justifiable penalty. If the attacker has to jump out of the way of a foul to not get struck but misses his opportunity to strike then its still a penalty.

 

But he didn't miss his opportunity to strike he had lost control of the ball and it was going out so he decided to seek a pen as the opportunity had gone! However the laws as they stand would still give him a pen that is what is so wrong about them! In my view a Pen should only be awarded where a goal scoring opportunity is denied but hey ho FIFA are in charge of the laws so enough said! In any event if it was or wasn't a pen is not relevant, we were denied two that were more blatant and also game changing and had we been awarded them would have made the Chelsea one an irrelevance, without the need to cry about them.

 

Teams like Saints have had decades of not being given decisions against the big boys especially away without crying about it Jose needs to stop playing the victim and sort his team of misfit superstars out whilst giving Saints credit for a great team performance that literally played his team off the park.

Jose should perhaps take a leaf out of our Ronald's book from earlier in the season. The seven man defence strategy to get us over the humping by Everton seems to have calmed us defensively and we have looked far more solid and in turn better offensively since then. Long may it continue for us!

Their biggest problem, signings aside is his tactics.

 

I mean it's obvious Ivanovic needs a break. Terry is slow but he's their leader and should probably play with Zouma, and Rahman should play left back for more balance with Azpilacueta right back. Fabregas isn't a DM, play him further forward, he got loads of assists last season.

 

I'm sure he knows what his "problems" are, but he persists with them anyway. He's after the payoff, but scratching around for "none of it is my fault" face savers. It's the classic "everyone is conspiring against me" strategy. He's so arrogant he can't see the face-saving just isn't working this time.

Well, Dermot Gallagher disagrees with you (as do many others). Falcao knew there wasn't enough room to go around Stek so started diving before any contact was made. His was not a penalty. Whereas, both of the ones we should have had were.

All he had to do, was drop the ref nonsense, say they were outplayed, say it's not good enough and need to regroup etc., and the rest of his comments would have been fine. He's completely misreading everything and seemingly going insane.

 

Agree, but wonder if had more time passed after the game he would have calmed down and realised his team were outplayed. Sticking a mic under a manager's nose 5 mins after the game ends is likely to get a hot-heated response. I'd be interested in his comments now, 36 hours later. If he were to be of the same opinion as at 7pm Sat night, I would be concerned about his sanity. He made the Keegan meltdown interview appear like child;s play.

After all the debate on here I watched the Falcao incident on the recordings. It's actually quite comical the way he twists his body in mid air in order to stick his legs out to the right and get both feet together to touch Stekelenburg on the upper chest on his way down. Of course if he'd only used one leg it would have been even more obviously a dive.

......and so ....the Special One has finally got the dreaded " vote of confidence from the Chelsea Board ". Football's Kiss of Death.

 

It buys time for Abrahamovic to find his replacement - without causing panic amongst fans, or giving the media a field day.

 

It means two weeks - and you're out ....unless you pick up the next 6 Prem. points, and don't lose the next CL game. Let's not hold our breath.

The ref's first half performance genuinely had me thinking about conspiracy theories, because nobody can be that consistently wrong arbitrarily.

So by your own judgement if Falcao went down before he was touched he should had been done for diving.

I do think that Mourinho should complain about referees in the future simply by calling them weak and naïve. It will be interesting to see what happens.

 

It's perfectly clear to everyone why Mourinho was fined and charged and Wenger not. Mourinho was quite clearly accusing referees of bias and casting doubts over their integrity, whereas Wenger was clearly right in saying that Costa was conning the referee in order to get a player sent off. There's a clear difference and however **** the referees have been it has not been because they're biased or crooked.

 

I hope the FA ban him every time he opens his mouth frankly. The man is an embarrassment and it would be nice if the FA just forced him out of the league so he can go and talk his ******** somewhere else.

Agree. His comments are now an embarrassment to the club. Regardless of results over the next few games, unless he is silenced, I think Chelsea will have to end his stress in this country.

 

he spazzes out at 3 years with a club.

it appears to be happening.

 

quite funny how a few months ago, he laugh at wenger when the frenchman said in times when they had constraints on their spending because of the new ground, 4th was like a trophy to them.

 

now, jose is saying 4th would do for chelsea...lol

Mourinho's got a book coming out - hence the on-going 'rant'

 

He just whoring around the press and as usual they'll print anything - sad really

 

Good point!

 

Pat Nevin was on Radio 5 the other night saying that "managers can't win" because we demend honesty in press conferences and criticise bland responses but then when they are honest they get clobbered by the FA.

 

I think there is a point in there somewhere in a wider context but he was talking specifically about Mourinho and his sanction which would me up because Mourinho was clearly not being honest at all in his post-match comments after we tonked them. He has been moaning about a penalty which has correctly not been given and when he was asked his opinion on our two clear penalty shouts he refused to talk about them. Honest.... don't think so.

 

I think most likely is that something really isn't right behind the scenes (the whole Dr episode was very odd) and he is trying to get sacked.
