r0cafella Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Not the worst half, Chelsea have been very good, both goals good, we haven't hoofed it so much as barely been able to keep the ball anyway. I just don't care all that much anymore tbh. We'be been blunt and Taylor is a fraud. We've been poor in the first half, Chelsea really haven't had to try or work hard for anything. We haven't kept the ball and we also haven't retained our shape. I'd call it a poor first half personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 The through ball from Santon to Sissoko was excellent, shame about Sissoko's finishing ability. Should have hit that first time instead his touch was abysmal. Golden chance that and the sort you don't often get in these sort of games and that you simply have to put away.

Jtm_92 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I think you now understand why we only paid 1.8M£ for Sissoko. We got him cheaply as his contract was up in that summer, 6 months he had left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuce Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I think you now understand why we only paid 1.8M£ for Sissoko. It'd be nice if Pardew stopped playing him out of position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 We've managed to create a few chances. Trouble is, they're getting so much time and space around our box, every single attack seems to end in a shot. Reasons to be cheerful - De Jong has laid the ball off well. Sammy has been causing them problems. There was a situation about 10 minutes into the game which summed up the problem with Ben Arfa. He did well to carve out some space for himself in their area, and then tried to beat Cech at his near post from a narrow angle instead of squaring the ball. Absolutely not the percentage decision, and he wasted his own good work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Sissoko is still a good player imo, but he has been well and truly Pardewed. He has been miss managed since day one, and i dont think Pards even knows his best position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dyeyzzon Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Sammy's been brilliant on both sides of the pitch. Dummett looks more solid defensively at left back, but not to the point where he will abandon attack runs. Sissoko and Santon are utterly gutless. Why Sissoko was made captain is beyond me. De Jong's the striker that Pardew wanted. Hard working, good in the air, good link up play. Overall, a better performance but just not good enough from us.

Absolutely not the percentage decision, and he wasted his own good work. As usual he has shot when there was an option to pass. Great when he scores but he rarely does. Trying to dribble the ball out of our box past 4 Chelsea players wasn't the best idea either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Sissoko is still a good player imo, but he has been well and truly Pardewed. He has been miss managed since day one, and i dont think Pards even knows his best position. Pardew is at fault for playing him out of position, but surely not for him just having a fucking crap touch? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been miss managed since day one, and i dont think Pards even knows his best position. A few times in a game, he'll open things up with his strength. The downside is that his first touch is reaaaaallllly poor. The second touch is a tackle far too often. But he's one of our players that can make things happen, so I'd stick with him.

Golfmag Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Wankers. We played so well in that half. Second goal was truly gut wrenching. Right next to Abramovic's box. Makes it worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but like many others his confidence seems shot to shit, probably from the negative style of play they get drilled into their heads every day.
