Chelsea (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

It was when Carragher and the commentator both in uniform said it isnt a penalty. But then I guess they had seen the decision before us.

Nailed on pen but no headlines... Feels like i'ts City so no one will complain.

We need an Alex Greenwood in the team, she would of said something

 

[69FACUPfinal]

Cheers. It's got to be better then Jamie "not a penalty not for me no" carragher

He was really really really annoying me more than Ratboy does in similar situations. I am convinced Stockley Park can hear them, if Sly and Comms know decisions before on field officials, its got to work both ways and be open to manipulation aka corruption in plain sight imo.

 

[blubanjo]

Explain. People are fucked off. That's ok isn't it?

Whilst it's disappointing to lose a game on occasion this is what happens when two teams play.
Maybe you should go and "watch" a team that never loses a match.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Bernardo clearly not fit enough to start or he would have. Could Pep have been braver and started Bobb over Alvarez? Yes. But I understand why he didn't.

Not sure how big a difference Stones would have made, Akanji did okay.

Just a bad day at the office against a team that turned up and played brilliantly.

 

[Gazza]

All the commentators in my stream said the Haaland incident in the first half was a penalty

I think they only decide it's a penalty if the player had a chance of getting to the ball.

You're gonna get called a lunatic soon but I'm with you!

 

[The Lightbowne Cowboy]

It was the PLs fault that City had 30 shots and only 3 of them on target?

No!! But if Caciedo would of been sent off WHEN HE SHOULD OF, and we get a penalty either on Walker or on Haaland then we wouldn't of needed to be at our best(which we wasn't btw) if that game is officiated fairly tonight, we'd of been talking about a stroll in the park but a sloppy start. We was fucking robbed! End of!

 

[Dazzle84]

I think our title chances largely rest on the fitness of Stones. Not only does he bring that quality to the build up that we clearly missed today, he makes every other defender look better. And also, if he plays then there's a higher chance Walker doesn't.

 

[Blu1]

We played well should of won but tactics didn’t help in first half gifting them a goal

 

[bulldogblue]

Our formation didn't seem right from the start. All season we don't seem to get out of third gear and kick on. Just imagine if we had played in top gear for most of the season we would have already been out of sight.
Is it me or does something not seen quite right at the moment. Grealish receiving detention from Pep. The big fella not being the same this season as last. Has he been coached to the point of losing natural instincts and therefore confidence.
Anyway if we win all our remaining fixtures we are champions again. Bring it on!

 

[TheBlueCat]

Its the selection thats the problem. We have the players to control but pep has a hard on for alvarez and akanji in there.

I agree.
The recruitment was terrible though. Nunes and Kovacic are nowhere near good enough and never will be. Phillips has become a parody of himself. A joke. Our recruitment strategy needs looking at..

 

[Barcon]

Cheers. It's got to be better then Jamie "not a penalty not for me no" carragher

Even Jim Beglin said we should have had one .

 

[normskih]

Feel for you I get bouts of IBS.. it really is shit (no pun intended BTW it genuinely hurts).

Thank you, feel for you too. I also think KDB is already fed up with is floppy hairstyle, lost count the number of times he had to move it over his eyes. Somehow I can’t see him with a Grealish type hair band.

i feel Oscar Bobb is a match winner.
Risk it

 

[Withnail]

We looked so much better when Alvarez came off
Dominated the game and created chances
Poor staring lineup from pep again

Agreed Bernardo should have been on from the start.

 

[SiMCFC]

Alvarez and Haaland not working, it's got to be one or the other, Foden out on the wing is a waste. Akanji cannot play the hybrid CB/MID role very well, we've gone stale and predictable, I think I could coach a side to nulify us at the moment in truth.

Lol

Our recruitment was strange last summer but we should give the newbies at least a season. That being said, we really should've gone all out on Bellingham

 

[paulsimpson]

100% a pen, he used his arm to change the direction of the ball in his favour

Yes he does. Should be a pen. If one of ours does that at the other end its definitely a penalty to Chelsea. Corruption in plain sight imo.

Better than being called a wum and not a Blue like usually happens when I DARE to give my opinion!!
