Up until the Leauge game against Manchester United we had the least amount of conceded goals in the entire league. 3 games and 9 conceded goals later, I can see Roberto is ecstatic to have terry back.
No! Not PSG!
You don't even know how hard I'll be cheering for you guys. I'll practically be an Arsenal fanatic that day haha
Agreed. I refuse to call anybody that does such a disgusting thing a "fan". Racism has to be eliminated, not just from the game, but from everywhere.
There were some nightmare moments in our defense. A lot of problems in the back could be solved if Luiz stopped darting up the pitch and would just pass to the midfield. Every time he goes for a run, it leaves us heavily exposed on the counter. Albeit, it is quite entertaining seeing him up with Sturridge and Mata haha
Exactly.
You guys played a very good game. It was very close and one of the most entertaining games I've seen in a while. But please don't make it sound like it was Chelsea's first team vs. United's reserves. Ramires, Hazard, and Oscar were brought in after half time.
Bertrand, Azpili, Piazon, Romeu, and Sturridge (not recently) = Not starters.
The pairing of Clattenburg and the linesman was unstoppable.
Being down to 9 men pretty much guaranteed we weren't going to win, but United shouldn't have won either considering Chicarito's goal was offside...
I agree. United was the stronger team for the majority of the game so they deserved the win.
Yeah this was definitely the toughest group. United got the easiest group in my opinion.
True, but I can't help but think that chelsea weren't playing as good as they could/should have. Cech was the only reason we weren't down 3-0 at halftime.
Then again, like you said, shakhtar are very difficult to beat at home so maybe I am being a little harsh with Chelsea.
I won't lie and say chelsea deserved a draw, because they didn't. Dissapointing effort coming from the champions of Europe. Shakhtar thoroughly deserved the win.
First loss since Atletico demolished us, hopefully a wake-up call for the players. Fernando what were you doing tonight...?
My admiration for Mata is no secret. He doesn't seem to be one of those players that mope around and complain when they're not picked. Instead, he works hard and proves his worth to the team.
Del Bosque will surely pick Mata soon, no doubt about it.
Why'd you get so many disagrees?
He really is a great guy too! Really mature for his age.
Mata, Mata, Mata... I knew he was good, but this is 4 man of the match performances in a row. Everything we did this game went through him. He is really something else.
The Mata Hazard Oscar is working very nicely!
Man City don't deserve a draw. Dortmund were cutting through them like butter. If it wasn't for Joe Hart Dortmund would have won for sure.
Should be a great game. Neither of the teams shy away from attacking so I expect a goal-fest.
If we can get him for a decent price, It would be great. I'm a big fan of Villa, and I think it would be a great short-term fix.
