Cracks me up when people here still think they've got a chance of top 4. They say surely they will win the next match as they have too much class. The climb up the table is happening next week but they are fighting to get draws so it is not even bad luck.

Wake up people. Your team is really rank and Very lucky that there may be 3 worse teams <ok>

Hiddink will not change an iota. There will be many draws and you'll end up 10-16 position.

We're so rank and yet you couldn't beat us. Guess that makes you rank too. <ok>
 
Just watching match choice on Sky. If anyone thinks that we didn't deserve anything from that game, they should stay off the crack pipe.
 
1 minute and 20 seconds added due to Everton players jumping into the crowd after the 3rd goal. Only themselves to blame.
 
This is exactly what people here have been saying since October. The bad run cannot last. People are going with what SHOULD happen (from past history) rather than the ACTUAL team. Jose was dismissed but the players and the team are at their true level. <ok>

That actual team won the league at a canter last season. <doh>
 
Just seen the full game on "game of the day" (Sky), the offside decision would have been very harsh as Terry was just leaning into that position when he received the ball off the second header, at the time of the first header (the one he was chasing) he was well on side.
Looking at the time side of the goal, it was definitely "Fergie time", even including the celebration time for Everton's 3rd there was nowhere near 7 mins of stoppage in the second half, never mind 8 mins.
Speaking of time added, nobody has mentioned Costa dragging himself back onto the pitch to get the game stopped when he originally got injured, was time added for that stoppage?

Leaning into it? How much more offside do you want him to be?

Have you seen it, he was running that way after the first header, he couldn't just stop as the ball glanced the second head.
I am no lover of Chelsea but that would have been a very harsh call from what I could see.

But he's ahead of the last defender by a noticeable distance and without Oscar's header it probably doesn't go to Terry, so I don't see how it would have been harsh. Probably the latest goal since Cantona's at Loftus Road halfway through James Alexander Gordon.

A clearer offside you couldn't see. Everton cheated <ok>

Roman making full use of his financial muscle <whistle>
 
Fevriul probably still has you down to win the league
I think some people here will only think they won't win the title when it is mathematically impossible. Never mind that they are scraping draws or getting further and further from top place. <ok>

The question is what will happen to Hiddink if they keep drawing matches? Even assuming they don't lose their remaining matches, they will finish with 41 points (25+16) , possibly avoiding relegation...just <ok>

You were ****.

We were coasting that game at 2-0. If we had a keeper worthy of the title you don't get a sniff.

At this time I would settle for 13th - top 6 let alone top 4 is a pipe dream, anticipate a struggle right to the end with the squad we have.
 
[HASHTAG]#meltdown[/HASHTAG] alert <laugh>

That lucky undeserved cheat draw may actually keep you up at the end of the season.
My god, did you just claim deltmown!!
Ladies and gentleman, we have a deltmown claimer!! HAHA
