Got to say, Mourinho and Chelsea are a f**king embarrassment. Time wasting and 10 behind the ball from the 5th minute.

That said, it was always going to be this way. That's how Chelsea play. We need to unlock their defense because they don't look like doing anything with the ball. Their goal came from an unfortunate slip and nothing more. Gerrard needs to quickly get over that and step up to show that he wants the title.

Take off Lucas and bring on Sturridge. All or nothing at this point. We've got what we wanted this season, CL football, and we can't loose it.

5th minute? Try the 2nd!!! 1m 15s and Swarzer was taking the piss
 
Gerrard of all people. He loves gifting Chelsea goals <doh>

We can moan about Chelsea wasting time from the first 30 seconds (how was there only 3 minutes of added time given?!) but they've played a typical Mourinho game away to a top team.

Sit back, go long, play for set pieces and hope to grab a goal by any means necessary.

Need to speed thing up and force Chelsea to try and play a quicker game by harrying them more. Get Sturridge on early upfront for Lucas. There's no real need for Lucas now as Chelsea are never going to come out and try and get another couple of goals.

Not the first time hes gifted Chelsea a goal though is it?
 
i have had enough of the tactical analysis, the player ratings and slatings

it comes down to one thing, and one thing only:

DO YOU BELIEVE

COME ON REDMEN
 
Pretty crap from us, totally dominated and a poor goal to concede! Considering our record in the second half can't see us getting much now. We've managed to blow past most apoinants this year but Chelsea are a next level defensive outfit. Would like to see us go all out to win it now, Sturridge on straight away! But can't see it happening!
 
I don't understand why the ref took until the 40th minute to go an have a word with Schwarzer about time wasting? After the first couple he should warn him, then book him after that. He'll soon stop doing it then.

Not sure how Cole didn't get booked for jumping in with his elbow on Suarez's neck either <doh>

Yeah, sadly I don't see us scoring today. Worst thing you can do against a stoke, west ham and Chelsea is conceding the first goal.
 
Chelsea are going to fluke the CL and Prem double this season aren't they... can just feel it <laugh>
 
That's a penalty...

Sterling knocks the ball past him and he just pushes him over? <doh>
