That was the most frustrating game I have watched in a long time. The commentators were really pissing me off as well Loved our goal at the end though shame it wasn't given
Not the point is it smithers? Chelsea had much better players than West Ham, just like Barca had much better players than Chelsea. Crawl back in your hole you cretin.
I'd argue that Chelsea and Barcelona's resources at the time were more similar than Chelsea and West Ham's are now and that would be why one is praised and the other lambasted. End of the day you have to do what you have to do for three points and if it stays in the rules then that's fine.
Not a chance, Barca had a much better team and, by no fault of their own, had one more player on the pitch. Your bottom line is absolutely spot on.
They're in the relegation zone and had to play with 10 men through no fault of their own FFS don't be so bitter
What happened lads,thought you would pummel west ham? On way back from the lane,great win for City Big big game now on Monday,perhaps not as straightforward for Jose to settle for coming for a point as it would've been with a win tonight? Ticket prices for fa cup game have been announced,discounted at £25 adults £5 kids and Chelsea to get 6000 tickets,should be a great atmosphere
Some dizzy chav was whining that their hundreds of millions of pounds team doesn't get the same respect as relegation-threatened West Ham when playing away for a point (which is exacly what Moaninho will be doing next week)
No he wasn't, just saying that West Ham played the negative game very well and defended stoutly to get a result. Several Chelsea fans have said well done to them. When we played the same way for the same reason against Barca, we're anti football, a disgrace etc. Classic double standards was the complaint.
West Ham are well within their rights to put up their defensive blockade as are the other relegation hopefuls we will meet at the business end......a scenario tailor-made for Mata oh s**t! I just remembered.......we sold him! Anyway it'll be our turn to park the bus next Monday.
Maybe we didn't break you down enough but think we have some quality players. No excuses though, we failed to score. Shame you and your fans weren't there to see it. Fulham and Palace brought more fans Worst away turnout by a London club at the Bridge for time
Matic should have started this game. Mikel offered nothing, the attacking threat of Matic is better than I thought it was. Instead of playing sideways pass after sideways pass he actually takes the ball forward, and isn't afraid to shoot. Have a feeling Matic and Luiz will come in for Monday, very good if Aguero misses out, their other strikers are good but not Aguero class.
A bad day at the office , but once in a while it happens! The plus side, is the hair dryer treatment will be in place just ahead of a far more important fixture on Monday!
You are a numbskull of the highest order. I was querying your utterly senseless statement that they were down to ten men. There is nothing wrong with setting up defensively against a team better than you - that is my point. Complete ****s, like yourself, have double standards as CP and myself have said when it comes to their rivals. Now **** off and neg rep someone after being embarassed yet again.
I knew they'd come and set up defensively but thought we'd win. It was just down to us not being able to finish our chances at the end of the day, only ourselves to blame. Looking forward to the Cup tie!
Did you watch the game? West Ham played the last 10 minutes with 10 men since O'Brien dislocated his shoulder after all the substitutions had been made. Jose should be grateful he didn't have to play against 11 maybe there would have been a smash and grab.
