monday nights game

[BlueHammer85]

You drew 0-0 with us last season and the game was similar to tonight's game. Defences came on top. It happens. Football would be shit if it was a basketball score every game.

I'm not saying it is mate...simply pointing out that a draw away to Scum is a better result for a West Ham fan as oppose to a Chelsea fan who should expect their team to win such games....specially when the manager (Mourinho) in my eyes got it tactically wrong

They drew with the champions away from home. He got it tactically spot on.

A bit disappointing all round, but at least it was two points dropped for both clubs.

Eh?????

This is a team in direct opposition to Manure...they should have played a fucking striker! That's how games are won...negative tactics are the reason Mourinho got sacked the first time around....personally feel he's a bit behind the times now but...whatever, it was a European first leg away from home for Chelsea and it was uninspiring

Perfect result for us as it means neither is far in front. Chelsea are lucky, they should have lost v Villa and were poor in front of goal v United, For teh life of me I cannot understand why Ba doesn't get a game, he was on fire at Newcastle.

He could play whatever tactics, players that he choses too, he's the manager.

Barcelona and Spain even play many games without a recognised striker and smash teams to pieces .

It's the result that matters over 38 games. Not going to tough away games and setting up defensively. When utd come to Stamford bride, the whole set up and approach will be totally different. Mourinho got what he wanted and will be happy with the point.

By the way, even without a striker they produced more shots at goal tonight.

I'm assuming you either didn't watch the match or failed to notice the number of times Chelsea had the ball wide and had no one in the box...

I watched it. Mourinho came for a point and got it. A very good result away from home. Performance is irrelevant

Hence my West Ham fan pleased with a point remark...small team mentality ;-)

Coming from the mighty Liverpool that finished 2 places above us last season
