Chelsea are very impressive and working extremely hard as a team. At least out lads are trying. The longer we can keep it at only 1-0, the better chance we have of getting something from somewhere
Can't keep hold of the ball, they are just swarming around us, it's as if they have 14 players on the pitch.....
Okay only 1 down at HT....Good battle between Dunne and Costa..... Not sure what can be changed, OBZ maybe but who do you take off?
Not as pee'ed off as i expected i would be, only 1 down (and a good goal at that) against the leagues top scorers and at least the lads are giving it their best rather than giving up ala spuds and manure so we can still live in hope of something from the game.
Compared to the Man U and Spurs away games where we were already waving the white flag by half time this is a much more encouraging performance and against currently the best team in the league. We are always going to struggle to get possession in this game, but we look somewhat organised...most of the time. Isla is a worry, Dunne again putting his all into the game.
We are struggling to keep the ball, but have been working hard when we don't have it. I'd like to see us be a bit more positive and run at them when we have the ball - we're a bit too slow/deliberate and they always have plenty of men back when we get anywhere near their box.
Have to be Charlie. If Nike is fit he needs to come on, for Fer I think. He could create a bit and if we get a free kick...
Isla is a very attacking wing back. He will always be exposed to a certain extent against the better sides imo. Ned would possibly be a better bet away from home when he's fit and against a top side.
