    It's been all downhill since the parting of the sea.

    Done ok I think, looked lively, goes down the right touchline

    better than I thought anyways, never watched him much before

    Chelsea are making it easy though, sitting back, and wigan are dominating

    Same as last year. Really talented and quick, with poor decision making and inconsistent delivery on the final ball.

    Moses is brilliant until he has to do something in the final third.
    His decision making is awful which is a shame as he has all the attributes to be a really good player.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,949 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Terrible first touch from Di Santo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,627 ✭✭✭Sgt Pepper 64


    Bring on the OSCAR

    (Mata looks knackered already)

    So, we'd be buying another Sturridge clone then? :D

    (but without so many goals)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,432 ✭✭✭willmunny1990


    Great start for us but since the goals we're just siting back inviting Wigan on.

    We need to pick things up again in the second half. Torres having a stinker up front.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 947 ✭✭✭LanceStorm

    id agree with that, dosent seem to be doing anything Sturridge dosent do, cept he just shoots/crosses(cant tell which is which so far, dont think he knows either) with his right rather than Studge cutting in and doing the same on his left!

    Hazard unreal so far, but Wigans main tactic is hacking down Mata and Hazard the second they're on the ball!

    id get Oscar on tho, we're losing the ball in midfield too easily and are on the back foot since the goals, need someone to hold on to it and maybe actually passing a ball to Torres now n then!

    He's been shocking as usual btw...

    I though Ivanovic was suposed to be suspended ?

    suspended from the reserves as the shield was classed as a friendly!

    Just watching the replay of Branas goal - some quality. Didnt know Brana could do that! Bet Torres would have loved that pass. Wonder if he would have socred?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,018 ✭✭✭Barr


    Ever since the second goal Chelsea have looked flat. Torres not having a great game (surprise surprise) Mata looks off the pace as well.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,661 ✭✭✭Fuhrer


    Wigan doing well despite the first 10 minutes


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    Chelsea can't think they'll be able to play like this all season. No hope they can keep it up.

    playing average?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,018 ✭✭✭Barr


    Chelsea playing better now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    playing average?

    Dropping deep and allowing teams to come on to them. They have gotten on the ball a bit more in the past 10 mins though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,829 ✭✭✭✭Panthro


    and the Oscar goes to...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,949 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Torres not getting a break!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,837 ✭✭✭abelard


    So close for Torres

    Torres unluckly there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,829 ✭✭✭✭Panthro


    I was sure Mata would be the one to make way

    Has anyone worked out exactly what our formation is?
    Who started on the right?

    I dont understand RDM and playing Betrand as a left winger???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    Be happy with a clran shhet now weve played well in periods but not for long spells.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,372 ✭✭✭✭Mr Alan


    How is that not a yellow card for Lampard?

    Baffling.

    Hazard started on the right, looked like 4-2-3-1 to start with anyway.

    Anyone stil disagree we need another striker and maybe a RW?

    not me - and maybe 2 does go into!

    LOL at agent!

    @EPLAgent007: Hulk is set to have his medical at Chelsea late next week. #CFC #FCP


    We could do with Modric as well, just to keep the ball in midfield

    Seriously though, pretty certain we will sign someone and a right back


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,018 ✭✭✭Barr


    I miss Drogba :(

    Agreed, hard for Torres today

    Ref has been poor in this game IMO. Gave a few silly yellow's and then didn't give them when they were warranted, like Lampard there and Santo earlier in the half.

    Come on Chelsea, 4 more goals and we go top of the league!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,018 ✭✭✭Barr


    Only for some poor finishing from Wigan things could be a lot worse.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,852 ✭✭✭homer simpson


    How is Meireles still getting a game for us :mad:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,791 ✭✭✭✭JPA


    Chelsea have been incredibly sloppy the last 20 minutes.

    Would have been a very nice goal that!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,837 ✭✭✭abelard


    Showing we are still defensively frail these last 20 mins


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 248 ✭✭DanTheMan91


    Very impressive debut from Hazard, looks like a quality player, Torres was disappointing today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,829 ✭✭✭✭Panthro


    That'l do Rob, that'l do.
