Ameritoon Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Good half. I was going to say at half we need to be much less sloppy on both sides of the ball, but they've scored already. We could seriously be up 2-0, 3-1, etc. at this point. Better, more careful passes, less tentative at the back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlito Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 they've probably had two shots all game, they didn't deserve s*** We deserved to concede tbh. As soon as we scored we went to sleep and invited them in for the rest of the half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Routledge and Carroll have been excellent so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 On the balance of play they probably deserve it. We've done alright though, some nice passages of play and looking dangerous any time Carroll wins the ball in the air in central positions. Not sure what to expect second half, that equaliser could be a real body blow or could actually help us to come out a bit more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 We've been shocking after our goal, gave them a chance to get back in it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 No one's fault for that goal really. just a quality ball and a bit of luck for chelsea Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Obviously gutting to lose the goal at the end but overall a class first half performance. Prior to the goal the back 4 hadn't put a foot wrong and Drogba et al had already stooped to their old diving tricks. Same again second half please Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Not sure how Chelsea "deserve" the goal - all they'd done until then was pass the ball about their midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucaAltieri Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Guthrie not following the run there.. Tiote trotting through midfield instead of closing down the runner. Unlucky with the deflection. Also... they're a bunch of cheating cunts. They might be winning already if they played football instead of throwing themselves on the ground at every opportunity.

Dave Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 No one's fault for that goal really. Agree. It was a nice set of passes from Chelsea and we got unlucky with the deflection(s). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Guthrie's had a tidy start as well. His passing has been crisp and he's moved the well from side to side. some early clutching perhaps? We've played well but seem to be lacking a bit of know-how on the ball. Have to come out and go for them 2nd half though... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnypd Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 just got a bit sloppy in our overall play - can't really expect to sit back an entire match against chelsea. shola's been terrible, really poor in possession and fucked up 2 great chances. could've been sitting on a two goal lead if it wasnt for him.

ElDiablo Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Real gutter that. Played ok though, need to stop being so scared to close them down, standing off them a bit too much imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan_Taylor Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Anyone not take a draw? We need more set pieces and or balls into the box. Routledge having a cracking game against Cole Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Campbell decided to show Kalou inside for some reason. Probably thought it was malouda, he can't tell the difference, it's all just fresh meat to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 We are playing well, need to cut out the mistakes though and Shola is really not helping either. He needs to be the one to hold it up and let us get out a bit. He keeps falling over and passing to chelsea at every opportunity though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest palnese Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 If we play like we did after our goal, we'll lose. People talking about luck for Chelsea, what about our goal? Sol and Taylor have been solid. Routledge had a good half against the best LB in the World. Carroll is good as always. Shola is Shola. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistle17 Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Such a kick in the teeth to concede at such a time. I thought we were going to go on and put a 2nd past them after we scored, they looked so fragile at the back- and still do from set pieces. We can still get something from this game but it's going to be tough. Would be nice to have a bit of pace upfront. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlito Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 There's quite a gap in between Guthrie and the strikers which is forcing the front 2 to come deeper. Needs sorted 2nd half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I'd honestly rather have Leon Best on the pitch than Shola, the man's a walking example of a static and useless footballer. We've competed well at times, but sitting back has played right into their hands, they're experts at taking advantage of negative tactics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I wish to fuck someone would tell Routledge he's got pace. Frustrating looking like he's scared to try and go past the full-back, always stops and plays a simple ball inside or crosses from too deep. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
