Chelsea 3-1 Newcastle United - 02/12/17 - post match bickering from p23

Some of the coments on here man. :lol:

 

Aye, you'd think we still had Pardew and Carver.

We've not been good enough, and the game is playing out like all the "I told you so"s would suggest, but it's not long since we've been dramatically worse.

I don't think we've ever been "dramatically" worse in recent times but those managers had actual decent players to work with

We are losing at Chelsea away (like we do every year) and people going on like we should liquidate the club ffs

 

It's the fact that we look like absolute shit. As we did against West Brom, Watford, Bournemouth, Burnley, Brighton and Huddersfield. Unable to pass the ball, defensively all over the place, barely a tactical change mate during the game, same shit players picked week in week out while others don't get a chance.

 

We have the same amount of points as Huddersfield and Brighton and have better squads. They also have a defined style of play and really go at sides at home.

 

Yes, we should have spent more. No, it's not an excuse for us being this bad.

Hurts that little bit more because we got ahead and started well again but a superb per Man United that seemed to kick them into action. They're miles ahead of where we are and it showed across the pitch. Their front 3, Moses and Drinkwater were all top drawer.

 

Annoying? Yes. Expected? Yes. Just need to hope we restart picking up points off those around us.

Too easy again today. We have no threat up front so unless teams make mistakes we’re really not going to score.

 

And playing against the likes of Hazard etc we were always going to concede.

 

The goals we shipped, I’m not sure would have happened with Lascelles in there though but we'll not know that until he’s back in.

 

Can’t be overly disappointed with the result. We need to limp through the month and hope a miracle happens over xmas.

Thought Murphy made a good account of himself again. Went from being shot of confidence to looking like a very brave player. Well done to Gayle for taking his chance, although I would have liked to see him get more involved afterwards, he became very quiet indeed.

 

We were never going to go toe to toe with Chelsea, to get anything out of that game you need a bit of luck and we didn't really create our own today, in which case a few individual errors are always going to cost you.

 

We move on :thup:

We were well beaten and the gulf in class is obvious, but stupid mistakes and our inability to defend the basics such as crosses and balls over the top are costing us hugely. If we are to be honest this is a team full of average players, but some of the team selections and tactics are not helping. Perez and Ritchie in particular need dropped.
