Chelsea - FA Cup SF | Post-Match Thread

Chelsea were tactically perfect.

Sometimes we will be beaten it’s not always because we were awful and everyone needs sacking.
Today though mate, I think collectively we were awful. I think Pep sacked it off today with that team knowing villa is a must win
 
I don't think we deserved any more than a loss today but there's no excuses that bent performance by Mike Dean... he was annoying me every bit as much as Sterling and Mendy were. Azpilicueta buying free-kick after free-kick, their goal coming after a free-kick that should not have been given, waving play on after our players get taken down like it was his favourite thing to do. Fuck off Mike Dean.
 
Really hope we don't play them if we get to the CL final as they seem to have our number. Very athletic, pacy and technically sound. Probably the only team we've played this season who have had more possession than us causing our 'fresh' team to look really leggy.
Thankfully if wer elucky enough to get there 9 of the strying 11 will be changed so not to worried

I wouldnt be worried with our first 11.
 
Easiest game Reece James has had. It’s one of footballs big mystery is how a regular fun loving bloke can blag his way into a football club and charade as a professional footballer even fooling the great Pep.
Worst full back we've had since Lauren Charvet and Danny Mills.
 
I never thought we would with the quad , I’d be happy with one trophy it’s just that performance stank, whole place should of been bouncing after Wednesday night..

the fringe players should of been chomping at the bit to impress hoping to get into the 11 for the semi final versus psg.

sterling, torres, mendy and Jesus were all disgraceful
Agreed ,add Cancelo and Steffan to that sorry bunch.
 
The magic formula that led to that amazing run was fielding almost same team .Confidence and team spirit was sky high. He messes with the formula in the derby defeat, now Leeds Chelsea and presumably spurs. Some rotation may be needed but this is just poor man management . What made him think Mendy and Sterling on one wing was a good plan?
Once we stray from the core team the formula falls apart.

I don’t know what he is thinking with Mendy. He is awful. Offers zero threat going forward, can’t control the ball properly and is slow. It’s madness to keep picking him.
 
Shit happens we cant win every game. Some bad performances out there today. Raz, where do you start. He has been given every opportunity to improve his form, but it's just not happening. Was surprised he even started today. He is no longer reliable, and this is costing the team. I was one if the people who defended him when he first came to us and was convinced he would come good. He did and has given us some fantastic moments and scored brilliant goals. Unfortunately in my mind now he should only play for us as a sub when we are winning.
