Credit to Mourinho and his players...they don't normally play a hard-pressing game, but that's what is necessary to disrupt us, and that is what they have done.
Have dropped back into our old reliable 4-2-4 formation here, with absolutely no link between defensive and attacking phases. Please don't take this as reactionary negativity because I've had these concerns from day one, but I just don't think there's any way we can fit Lambert and Osvaldo into the same team, let alone those two and Rodriguez.
Gazzaniga just pinged a ball to Lambert, right on his nut. He barely had to move. I'd only slightly forgotten how good he is at that.
Oops, 1-3. Was going to type that Chelsea deserved to win, but was hoping no more than 2 would go in our end.
