The College Dropout

Mourinho likes his flat-track bullies. Willian is another.

While I take your point. It's night and day. He's gone from Obertan levels of cowardice to fucking Braveheart in 2 months. He's gone from looking slow as owt to having the legs on Kieron Gibbs.

Tired performance from him and Gouffran I thought.

Santon was at fault for the goal. He was nowhere near Giroud when he makes the header. Kind of hope Krul could do better too.

Aye.

Chelsea playing like Champions today. That attacking midfield 4 today really at it.

Today shows why he's best a bit deeper and not a #10. Feet to slow. No pace. Get him involved in the game.

Weird player, when I watch Chelsea he's always average, but for the national team and in big games he's usually class. I think it might be about occasion and motivation for him. Looks so complacent at times. (as for today he's not a DM) Yep. Attitude is sketchy against lesser sides but he really gets up for the big games.

Recently he's been f***ing class. Think he has been under-par for decent chunks of his Chelsea career, but he has the ability to be one of the very top players in the world. Agreed. Today and in the last few weeks in general he's been right on it. Chelsea have 4 defenders that are pretty good in the air - infact there's not much better than Ivanovic & Terry in the world, Cahill & Luiz are also very good in the air. Yet they concede rather a lot of goals from set-pieces.

Was pretty poor when he came on.

Amazing stamina. Another braveheart performance. I was completely wrong about this fella. He's top, top notch. Right down to his attitude. Blood and thunder. He now looks tailor-made for the PL after I thought he was too slow for it.

I guess Gibbs was carrying an injury but boy he looked shit.

Agree with this mostly.

Front 4 looked tired I thought. Gouff & Siss just not at it.

Exactly this. Not even on target ffs.

Shit when he came on today.

Would hoy on Cisse. Move Remy outwide. Might as well go for it.

IMO that Flamini challenge is a borderline red. He's come to hurt Benny.

Flamini with a reducer.

Sissoko & Cabaye been pretty anonymous.

Is Flamini playing LB. Yes. yes he is. HATEM!!!

This refs giving us nothing.

Dunno what the fuck was going on there. Colo meant to be marking Giroud? Horrendous that. Krul could've done better. Fucking Probert should've given us a foul moments earlier.

Not holding the ball-up in their half and Remy is isolated.

Gouff's having an off day.
