Guest BooBoo Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I dunno whether its because some of our other games have been really really s***, but i thought it was far from a poor game today. Sure, there wasnt too many chances but it was always compelling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I dunno whteher its because some of our other ganmes have been really really shit, but i thought it was far from a poor game today. Sure, there wasnt too many chances but it was always compelling. I thought it was quite a good game but that could be down to the fact that for once we were performing to a decent level and a few of our players were having really good games.

Newcastle Fan Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 It was a decent game we played today,shame that we didnt win Although i am suprised that after this game people started to think we are a good team,we are NOT a good team under Roeder,we had a good game mainly because Chelsea were poor today,our players did play the best football they played all season (and still we didnt win),but i am guessing next game will determine of we really improved or this game was just a fluke..

Guest BooBoo Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Its true though, today will have been a waste if we cant go and get at least 7 points from the last 3 games. Its been a turd season but lets try and finish on a positive note. The players today showed if they apply themselves they should have the better of Reading, Blackburn and Watford. Whats frustrating is, that in at least one of those games, we will turn in a crappy performance and get beat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Ball went towards him in the area and could have hit his hand but from the angle I saw on sky you couldn't really tell. Was a shit camera angle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Snrub Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 If Chelsea don't win a match there is only one explanation. They were obviously cheated. Everyone hates Chelsea and has it in for them, including the FA and every referee. I feel so sorry for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Loved Terry's reaction when Superiski was tugging him. Loved it even more when I think it was after the set-piece after that, Nobby Solano just stood between Sib & Terry with his hands behind his back...then kept his hands there when the ref called them over.

Gallowgate End Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Thoughts - Surprisingly good defensive display as a unit, one of only a few teams to have got a clean sheet against Chelsea this season. I thought Steven Taylor was outstanding and the leader of the good defensive display won almost every single battle against Drogba. - Attacking wise i have to say we were poor for me, alot of that was due to Roeder selection of playing players not in there best positions mostly Dyer struggled and James Milner workhouse display was good but he has got lots of assists from the Right Wing this season and enjoys Solano passes getting him in the right area to deliver. -Would of liked Roeder to have played N'Zogbia Left Wing and Milner Right Wing and Dyer though the middle. Harper - 6.5 - very little to do but showed consistency and no faults. Solano - 7.5 - kept his defensive position well and covered when needed, good passing and link play. Bramble - 8 - some thunderous tackles but struggled when up against Kalou trickery. Taylor - 9 - one of our best performances from a player this season, won every battle up against Drogba. Carr - 7 - decent, showed some good overlapping play. Dyer - 5 - awful, second home game running he has been shocking but today not in his favored through the middle position. Butt - 8 - disciplined and assured, won some really key tackles. Emre - 7.5 - fantastic energy always trying to make things happen, our movement was not good enough for Emre to prosper. (still playing to deep) Milner - 7.5 - got up and down really well, put in some good in swinging deliveries. Sibierski - 7 - defensively fantastic when dealing with Terry at Set Pieces, however struggled to link the play. Martins - 7 - very little service but showed fantastic work rate as per usual. Man Of The Match- Steven Taylor=9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man Of The Match- Steven Taylor=9 Some very good observations there, mate, if I may say. I'd agree with 95% of that. Where I'd differ- I thought Martins was pretty poor today. His link up play and his reading of situations wasn't great. Emre lost the ball a lot. He showed a lot of spirit, but he often tried things that weren't really on. I thought your mark was a bit generous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 both very good but i thought bramble was marginally better than taylor,he done most of the physical stuff with drogba. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SLK Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Pointless result. What the f*** is the point in trying to get something from a game, when we have nothing to play for. Only teams we play well against are the top 4, and we usually only get a point. I'd rather we just rolled over and died against the bigger teams, and lashed the crapper teams. I rather we get a point against the top 4 teams and lash the crapper teams... But thanks for your point of view... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
