    Too much ball watching and flat footedness

    We need the Wilf on the pitch, am sorry, Gomis is doing what he can, but no-one can hold the ball up like Wilf

    Montero on for Routs too, he has been missing so far this half.

    No, it's been coming but Mourinho's tactics were spot on - press us so that we don't have time to pass the ball. It's working, sadly.

    Bony and Carroll are the changes I'd make.

    Best of both worlds, Bony on for Shelvey, pull back Siggy to CM and Gomis to AM

    Id agree but we have no pace on the wings this half, our wingers are nowhere to be found, we need an outlet.

    Just not sure why we can't pass to one of our own players..... I know Chelsea are pressuring us but still, we should be able to find one of our own.

    We are playing Chelsea not a bottom 10 side. It's to be expected we'd be under the cosh for large spells here.

    Let's get Montero on so he can scare them a bit

    I agree we would expect to be under pressure for large periods, but a lot of that pressure would be eased if we just passed to our players.

    What a chance for Gomis! We're still in this... just.

    Aw well, if we aren't going to take the rare chances we get - we should expect to lose. I would have expected Carl Heggs to score that !

    Agree, that's why I'd take Jonjo off and bring Carroll on.
