Right I seriously doubt they didnt take the game seriously. One thing about Chelsea since the Mourniho days is you take everything seriously so that excuse doesnt wash at all.

You were battered, plain and simple. Played off the park.

There is no hiding from it. When did you last lose a friendly 4-1?

What sort of manager and what type of players knowing they have paying fans watching turn up to a game, a European final no less ( albeit minor ) and dont put the effort in?

Consider this, they got ****ing paid for last night.

Take the criticism, a lot of us have been saying this chelsea side is anything but amazing. Great top line but that is it. Weak GK, defence and midfield isnt much either. My club has the defence problems but we have a solution. I dont think Chelsea do right now.

If you dont care so much Chelsea fans, why getting all wound up about it? You clearly do and the result was a big slap in the face after you were all getting a little over confident.

I agree with most of what you say there - it was a *iss poor performance full stop. We were an embarrassment tbh and I don't think anyone should get paid for last night but sadly the game does not work like that.

I do not however agree with your assessment of the various components of the team eg GK, defence and midfield.

Cech is a top keeper. Our defence is pretty good - better with JT in it; last night was an off-night big time. Our midfield does need some work as does our striker(s).

Still at the top of the PL at the moment - see how we go.
 
Cech is top class. Defence is shaky agreed but it's not hard to see the issue. The midfield pivot is the issue, i.e Lampard can't play there. But for you, let's not get cocky, it's still a step up from Uniteds midfield.

we were on ITV 4 **** nuts, a much more glam channel. I don't think you guys will win the leageue, but you'll give everyone a good go.

Your lad Hazard has hit the ground running, Cahill is looking class, you're playing to Torres strength now so you won't miss Drogba, its looking good for Chelsea.

I don't think you turned up for this game, and you got undone by a good side with, imo, the best player around at the moment.

Bad day at the office, nothing else.

Campbell--Thank you for that very accurate resume! We have a problem that because we're rarely on the end of a defeat--when it actually happens some think the ground is about to open up and suck us in ! The positive side of this is its a wake up call from a defeat in a trophy that doesn't matter, to come alive in our next PL game!
 
Still a work in progress esp the defence -agree with shwan lack of balance in midfield top heavy with attack-minded players but no one is prepared to do the holding job in front of the back four leaving them vulnerable to the counter.
