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


Recommended Posts

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.

It's possible to think Ritchie is an average to poor PL player you know. That doesn't always equate to "he's fucking wank he's trash, sell him".

It's also possible to just talk absolute shite (not you btw). [emoji38] Saw a comment about him being a 'caveman footballer' ffs. It's not isolated either, re selections, tactics and Rafa in general, some people go on like reshuffling the seats on the Titanic would have stopped it from sinking, it's proper embarrassing. Pre match everyone agreed that Joselu needed dropped - dropped - Yedlin was at fault for a few goals - dropped. Yet Diame starts and people concentrate on that, or can't accept that playing Shelvey against a far superior team who'll be attacking all game might not be the best idea. I think of myself as being one of the most pessimistic, miserable cunts going and even I'm surprised by some of the comments, like.
