they'd have been so pumped up for barca there was always going to be a come down
great result
A bit like Arsenal today.
Wenger changed 5 of his front 6
What innovative thinking from a manager.

Ok, that's a far point. We can now upgrade his performance to "as useful as the post". We were all hoping for a performance more suited to a professional football player rather than an inanimate object
Can you imagine the hilarity that would have ensued if he'd injured himself kicking the post.
Can't believe he didn't miss the post to be honest!

Certainly a very tired performance from the lads today, Stoke got what they deserved for the usual parking the bus routine, just glad we got the 3pts today................well done guys.................
I don't think you read that properly... cleared off the line for Stoke... not from Stoke. Ball hits the post it has a chance of going in. If it's hits Dzeko it goes to the opposition.Damocles said:AliWaheed said:What? before Dzeko managed to clear off the line for Stoke?Shirley said:Totally disagree, perhaps you left very early.

Fuck them leave them 2 it. Pathetic if u ask me.
Or they just don't rate a player that obviously isn't at a standard the club is looking to be at.Shirley said:I'm beginning to wonder if the Dzeko haters on here are really rags, surely true Blues wouldn't stoop so low.

Hopefully, he'll get on the bus back to Stoke. He's headed there at some point anyway.
"Dzeko eventually going to Stoke" might have been 15% funny the first time you said it. That was about 100 times ago. Give it a rest, FFS.
That said, horrible game for him. Hopefully the Beast will get fit and Jovetic isn't out for too long if at all.
In fairness to Dzeko, he has had a lot of pretty strong performances going back to even before the turn of the year. I don't see why some go so far out of their way to smash the guy (or needlessly defend him, for that matter.) Everyone has a fucking bad day at the office every now and again. Doesn't mean they should be taken out back and shot.

Coming off the back of a head wrecking few games including tue undeserved loss to Barcelona I thought we stood up like Heroes today.
Couldn't fault the application, pressing and desire against the most stubborn anti football bunch of cunts in the division.
The final touches were sadly lacking but the rest of our play was good and showed we have mental fortitude and still want the trophy.
Dzeko was horrific and when he's horrific there's no worse sight.
3 points in the bag will do me very very nicely.

Pretty much sums it up.

Mate, I'm not trying to be funny. If I say it enough, I'm hoping it will happen.
Have to say, in all the criticism he gets from some experts, Yaya played a real leaders game today. Forget the goal, but he was the one driving us forward time and time again. Seemed really desperate for the result today. Credit to him.

I'm sure you don't give a crap what I think, but you seem to be very well regarded on here, and you generally seem to be the voice of reason amongst the madness, so I assume your opinion is being unduly coloured by the "miss of the season". Dzeko was pretty poor today, as were several others, and even our best performers gave the ball away a lot and made some bad decisions. However, he certainly wasn't an inanimate object, he was involved in a few of our more promising moves, and I thought he worked pretty hard under the circumstances - I'm sure you're aware how tough it is for strikers like Dzeko and Negredo to thrive in this kind of game.
There are enough ridiculous, over-the-top views aired on here without the sensible posters joining in.
