Chelsea v SAINTS: Match Thread

Yep. ****ing embarrassing team line up. Shameful defeatist attitude unless he brings them both on together on the hour.

 

Because if we set up all-out-attack, Chelsea would never score

 

If Our only striker is stood next to Puncheon and doesn't take the free kick who on earth is it being aimed at? Surely we should have our main goal poaching threat in box for loose balls!

 

We're playing ok.

 

I like Puncheon but he needs to take player on keeps running around the box with ball but not into it

 

"What you don't want to do is give another goal away"

No **** Dave.

 

Are you daft? The argument i had with you before the game should answer that question. The defending there was laughable, hence why i expressed it in the form of typing.

 

Yeah, how dare Adkins make us play solidly and roll it around nicely before a failed clearance falls to their feet and someone is caught out of position.

FFS Adkins why did you do that?!

 

Exactly! Why try to mitigate the difference in ability by playing defensive football (which is the only way away teams ever get something from them) when we could outclass them with all of our better players!

 

Talk about the bleeding obvious!

 

Anyone know where I can get English commentary, cancelled Saints Player as was crap got good stream but is in foreign commentary

 

Well played there one-goal.

 

Our crossing is very poor

 

Has the guy on nutjob.eu actually stopped slagging us off and licking Chelseas arse in the last 10 minutes. We are defending pretty well, yes we don't look like we have much attacking threat but to be fair we aren't going to have both.

 

This is Les Reed's fault, FFS.

 

Nice control from Rodriguez there. Not-so-nice shot from Davis, unfortunately.

 

I don't laugh at my team's players, I back them.

I also don't have a crystal ball so had no idea you were on about the defending.

We had an argument before the game? Wow, I was just defending our manager's team selection. That was a discussion of my view not an argument.

No, I'm not daft, but obviously you think I am because my view of our team's selection was different to yours. However, I won't result to insulting you as that is silly.

Thanks.

 

One-Goal with a lovely touch, Steven Davis with the strike of the century to miss the goal by 5 yards despite being about 3 metres out.

 

Jason needs to stop trying to do too much, you're up against Cole and Mata down there Jase.

 

Think some finishing training is in order. Seen a few times this season, several players (seemingly everyone except Lambert and Ramirez) try to roll the ball into the post and end up diddling it wide or for an easy save, rather than just putting their foot through it. I understand kicking it as hard as you can isn't good finishing, but that Davis shot was an example of something that just wasn't going in.
