I thought that was silly but they are 2-1 up now, he must know something we don't. |

Unless its some change in tactics I cant see how that sub helped. Getting Anelka in did tho. |

So [beep!] off right now.
Most disappointing are the performances from Hleb and Adebayor. Hleb was just hesitant in almost every touch of the ball, ok you could say he was holding up the ball but no one else was really pushing up for support. Manny was playing as if we had a 2-0 lead, playing the ball back almost all the time not really looking to attack at all. Chelsea were more creative and picked us apart with their passing around the area, so they probably deserved the win. |

Turned out a very good game. Chelsea deserved the win, the comeback was very strong and resilient.
Grant proved all the Chelski Mourinho fans wrong again and embarrassed each and every one of them. The difference today was that Carvalho & Terry were excellent whilst our CB pairing were exposed too easily. Drogba helped make that difference as well and Adebayor, well if I could give him a rating it'd be in the minus. -2/10 perhaps? Harsh maybe, but the guy did nothing right - no presence, no real work ethic, every high ball he lost and he gave so many dumb fouls away that gave Chelsea some great breaks in defence. Almunia and Clichy were our best players. It was really nice to see Sagna score and get a goal and for most of the game we looked the better side until we sat back a bit to defend our goal and Chelsea's strong comeback squashed us. Drogba immense, but helped by some poor defending in all honesty. What Touré was at for the winner I'll never know. We aren't out of the race, but I'm not confident we will win it. Man Utd look too strong and Chelsea are getting stronger. Still, it's a great season for us and we're still in a great position in Europe which is a tournament that we desperately want to win. Another mention to Carvalho as well, he was immense and helped make Terry look really strong as well. Great pairing. |

Great exciting game but we came on the wrong side of the scoreline. Good to see Sagna get on the score-sheet, Adebayor has just lost his touch at the moment. Van Persie did well but he needs games to get back into the grove of things. I still hate Eboue with a passion, Walcott needs to start in his place. Walcott didn't do anything once he got on, but wasn't his fault, they never got the ball to him since they continued to try to exploit Essien. Almunia played a great game, made a bunch of great saves. Nothing really he could have done with the two Drogba goals.
In the end after Eduardo's injury, we've thrown the league away and given it to United. But there's still a few games left and anything can still happen as it has already. I think we now need to concentrate on the 5 important CL games. |
