Chelsea (a) post match thread

Someone needs to say it as it was.

Mancini like Pellegrini had one decent season and the rest was mainly fucking turgid. It wasn't that long ago not to remember the crap performances and defeats yet its like history is being re written on here yet again.

Fans constantly longing for his return are a complete fucking embarrassment and i will tell you why. Not a fucking peep from any of them when things are going well, not one peep yet as soon as we lose a game they are back on moaning and whining.

Some are far more interested in being proven right on an internet forum at times than they are City doing whats required and moving forwards.

We played well last night. Some of the attacking play is on a different level to anything else seen in this league and but for some lax finishing and the final ball, we are not far off. Kun, Sane, Jesus, Sterling, KdB, Merlin gracing the pitch yet its moan fucking moan. "Should have backed Bobby" is the cry yet you all forget one thing. he would have spunked money on Van Persie and whilst it might have won a league, we can only guess he too would have been gone now and those players mentioned Merlin and Kun aside probably wouldn't be here and we would be watching the Ballotelli show week in week out or at least we would when he wasn't suspended.

We need new full backs, a keeper and a dominant CM. We can all see it, we have all said it and we have all acknowledged it will happen this summer when several contracts are up and players will leave that are just no longer up to it. What do you want Pep to do in the meantime? Play players he doesn't have? Chelsea barely mustered a shot 2nd half last night and but for a deflection and some poor goalkeeping and a lucky deflection yet again off the penalty save they have actually done fuck all. They didn't out play us, we out played them for large periods yet some just dont want to see it.

Pep came in and said we are going to change the mentality of the club. Not just the tam, the club and he said on several occasions its going to take time. We are competing against clubs with decades of experience at the very top when in reality we have been there for a few years. We went unbeaten at the start of the season but he kept telling us we would lose game, lots of games and he has been proven right. Maybe he knew then the quality in the squad wasn't of the required standard? He told us it wasn't a quick fix and that his job would take several years. Did anyone actually listen to what he said or was it in one ear and out the other?

Best owner in world football, some of the best talent in world football and without a doubt, the best manager in world football as shown by his record and for those that will harp on its easy when you are with Barca and Bayern, his job here is to turn us into those same sort of elite clubs that for the next 50 years will dominate the game because he has changed our mentality into the same as theirs. Winners!

The fans also need to change their mentality. Its not all about the next game or the next few weeks. it will take time but it will happen because everything our owner planned for when he came in and promised he has delivered and in Pep, he will deliver once more. If you cant see the improvements being made within the club as a whole i feel sorry for you. if you cant see what he is trying to do out on the pitch i feel sorry for you. Pragmatism is thown around here like confetti. You want pragmatism? Watch a Mourinho side or a Pulis side because that's pragmatism. Turgid, crap anti football that harps back to the days of muddy pitches, big lad up front and shouts of "get rid" from the sidelines and "get it up to the big man up front".

No fucking thanks because we are better than that and it might win the odd battle but it wont win the war because we will win the war.

Finally refs and linesmen are screwing us over every single game. See that for what it is and accept it and instead or turning on the team, direct some of that anger at them because they are costing us big time. Such fine lines in football and this season we have been royally fucked over and its costs us so many points its untrue. We get what we where due and the league table looks very different and the mood on here is very different. Its not Peps fault they are bent, nor is it Merlin's or Raheem's and like us, the players are fucked off with it as well but its a battle right now and we all have to take the fight to them and win the war.

Its a passionate game and we all love this club but some of the stuff written after a defeat is cringe worthy and downright disrespectful.

What a superb post,one of the best and one that should make some fans of ours feel embarrassed of their attacks on Pep.

Our world class players seem to be taking it in turns to have an off moment, just when the goal is gaping. Sergio might be on fire, and KDB can't hit a pass, KDB gets his radar sorted and Sergio hits the post. The only time we all seem to be firing is when we have lambs in front of us waiting meekly for the slaughter. Against 'raging bulls' and Wanking Whistlers (and Whistling Wankers) we seem to put 99% of the trust in the other guy!

KDB certainly hasn`t been on fire for a fair few matches of late,although at times when breaking he showed us what he can do.Just not consistent for my liking as much as I love the guy.
 
i dont get the negativity on here. i thought we played really well last night. we just got beat by the better team.
 
Part of Pep's problem is that he is constantly changing the team. He has not played the same team once in consecutive matches at all this season, this inn some way goes to how at sometimes that the team is struggling to find a rhythm. That knee high tackle that Costa did should have resulted in a red card. I have know doubt in my mind that if that had been done by 1 of our players it would have been a red card. At least 2 times last night Glen Hoddle said that Mike dean had got his decisions wrong when he gave Chelsea a free kick when in the 1st place our player was fouled 1st.

Last night just goes to show how far both the F.A> and the premier League are out to get us and to make sure that we will not finish in the top 4.

I think when you have no win in 4 games performance takes a back seat.

? i get we haven't won, but how is the performance irrelevant ?. we played really well and lost to the champions. its not the end of the world. no win in four games against some really good teams swell.
 
As much as we can sometimes look devastatingly good going forward, there are too many games where a team can park the bus against us and we look so pedestrian that keeping us out is way too easy. Thought that lack of intensity was a problem in the second half, just strolling around in possession and not truly testing Chelsea's concentration at all. Not sure why Pep didn't make any changes earlier when Chelsea looked so comfortable keeping us out.

Same old, same old. I didn't see any live action. I taped the game in the hope of a win and had texts from my ERO, amongst which were 'Fernandinho sitter', 'Stones sitter'! How many rock solid chances do we spurn. We must be top of the league for glorious chances not taken!

To be fair, the Stones chance wasnt a sitter. It looked that way at first glance but the ball was behind him, it would actually have been an excellent finish if he'd scored. Fernandhino had much the better chance but even that wasnt a sitter. We've missed a few sitters this season but not a huge number. The problems have been that we havent created a huge number of clear cut chances considering the quality of our build up play up to the box, and havent converted enough of the "difficult but scoreable" chances.
