Saint_clark Posted 16 December, 2017 Share Posted 16 December, 2017 Nothing to do with giving away a cheap free kick on the edge of the box in the first place Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Seeing as they refused to show a replay from the other angle I can't be sure but it looked a very soft freekick anyway. It's irrelevant - it was either a freekick or Hazard having a free shot from the edge of the box unmarked. Point is, Forster still took 4 or 5 clumsy steps to get from the centre of the goal to the right hand side, stumbling all the way, and unsurprisingly didn't get there in time.

OttawaSaint Posted 16 December, 2017 Share Posted 16 December, 2017 We started well and then they upped the tempo and couldn't cope. On the plus side, we do have history of coming back from losing positions at Stamford Bridge so all is not lost. Being able to string a few passes together may help though... We could do with Niemi, Killer, Marsden and Beattie right about now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazza82 Posted 16 December, 2017 Share Posted 16 December, 2017 Gabbiadini turning in the wall not FF fault but let's blame the keeper cos it's easy too!

NewYorkSaint Posted 16 December, 2017 Share Posted 16 December, 2017 Really too bad about the late goal. Was an impressive performance until then. Context. Their team cost 3x as much as ours, and pays 2x the wages. To see us holding our own for 46 mins was pretty satisfying. We had a bad night mid-week, but I still think we have enough quality to be upper half of table by season's end. the confident one-touch football out of defense is beautiful to watch. We just need more creativity, ruthlessness final third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintsmike25 Posted 16 December, 2017 Share Posted 16 December, 2017 Fans being annoyed because we're losing against a team we should lose against... We could still get an equaliser, Chelsea have looked poor and we've lacked ambition. At least it is better than the turd served up on Wednesday. Redmond so frustrating, looks like one day he may resemble a decent player but so many decisions let him down. I think we're far too scared against teams like this who don't have the same pace as Leicester, the key is always closing down Hazard/Willian and then Chelsea struggle. They're a much poorer side than in previous seasons and are shaky at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5string Posted 16 December, 2017 Share Posted 16 December, 2017 Chelsea deserved to be in the lead don't they as they are the better team Whats wrong with that Quite a lot wrong with that. We're Saints fans and our team is losing 0-1. We've been the 'better team' against several other teams this season (eg. Burnley, Huddersfield, Brighton) but failed to win. Nothing to do with 'deserved'. We are playing badly, however, so it's not surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obelisk Posted 16 December, 2017 Share Posted 16 December, 2017 Don't we have to question the wall there? Incorrectly positioned or man at the end not doing his job perhaps.

SaintAndy14 Posted 16 December, 2017 Share Posted 16 December, 2017 On the positive side(!), at least that goal on HT might mean we actually try to attack a little in the 2nd half.

Dark Munster Posted 16 December, 2017 Share Posted 16 December, 2017 Nothing to do with giving away a cheap free kick on the edge of the box in the first place Hazard was bearing in at goal at full flow, not a cheap free kick. Maya got booked for it, not because it was nasty (it was soft), but because it was done to stop a goal-scoring opportunity. A cheap free kick was the one that led to the first Man City goal against us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Chalet Posted 16 December, 2017 Share Posted 16 December, 2017 We have become the new Sunderland of this league,with ultimately the same outcome. Very different. And it is very different to the season we were relegated. Us in 2004/5 bumped along in the bottom 3 all season and looked shot from the very beginning. Some shocking signings to boot.

qwertyell Posted 16 December, 2017 Share Posted 16 December, 2017 I make it 8 goals conceded by Forster already this season from outside the area. Wonder what the record is. What's the point in packing the defence if the opposition can continually score against us without having to bother to break it down? For comparison, we've scored 1 goal from outside the area. And only 4 in the entirety of last season. Sent from my F3311 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
