Chelsea (H) | Post-Match Thread

Glauber Berti to score the goal in the cup final. Either him or Kakhaber Tskhadadze.
 
Completely pissed off. Angry. Disappointed.
Why ................

We lost in stoppage time AGAIN
NINE changes - utter stupidity
Anthony Taylor (yet again against Chelsea) - he'd given us one penalty so wasn't going to give another (would have probably missed itanyway)
VAR - a joke or corruption in Stockwell
Ridiculous penalty from Sergio - how many have we missed this season?
The champagne stays in the fridge (until tomorrow when Villa take points off the rags)
And finally - it is Mother's Day in this part of the world and the result got the day off to a bad start for my wife.

Message for Pep - Nine changes for the Newcastle game - put all the A-listers back.
 
We all love Sergio but the fact he was more concerned with Sterling taking his chance off him instead of a bit of team togetherness in being 1-0 towards the title was disappointing to see. Not to mention that silly penalty attempt which could effectively have won us the game (who knows?) but 2-0 up at half time and it's a very different game altogether. As for Mendy...
 
Was a shocking performance, but we still should've been 2 up at half time, Aguero badly mucking up the penalty cost us the game and all momentum we had built up going in to half time. These things happen.

I wasn't to bothered by Pep rotating the squad, I was expecting that as he was playing chess with Tuchel for 3 weeks time, but the line up for the CL final picks itself after that, no one really banged the door down to get into the 11 for it.

Would probably be fitting in a odd season that we will wrap the title up by not playing, I can't see the Rags getting 3 wins in before we play next, and it will be somewhat of a anti climax not to win it ourselves with a result, but we've done the work to be crowned champions so it will come.

Bigger fish to fry in three weeks, we know what Chelsea will do and are all about, all this morning's result did for me was show what they're strengths are with the pace up front, and we'll have to be at our best to beat them.
 
I think Pep has played a blinder here, this is exactly what I wanted to happen with the formation and lineup.

There was no benefit in playing our strongest team today, all it would have done is allowed Chelsea to put things right against us for the CL final had we tore them apart today with our strongest team.

I think Chelsea know we’re going to start the team that started at home against PSG, that is by far our strongest team and formation and I believe that team will beat anyone.

I hope we’ve lulled them into a false sense of security.

I would also rather we win the league later, rather than sooner, I want us to go into it the final sharp. Ideally we play our best team against Brighton and win the league there and then use Everton as a warm up match. I hope West Ham wins all their remaining matches too and finish 4th.
