December 9, 201510 yr I don't think it is that. Apart from Costa, i think the rest are trying their hardest, but our tactics and formation has been completely found out in the league. Teams in the Premier League know how to beat us, Mourinho needs to come up with something new, and i don't mean swapping a few players around.At first it was a bit of a hangover and as we lost the title early on the lads just don't have that extra 5% without that chance if silverware.
December 9, 201510 yr Matic looks a different man tonight...coincidence that he's not having to worry about Fabregas?
December 9, 201510 yr Costa goes down WAY to easily. Any kind of bump and he goes down. Stay on your feet, hold the ball up, and play it into Hazard. He wasted that chance. Edited December 9, 201510 yr by Scott Harris
December 9, 201510 yr I hate to say this seeing as we're having a good night, but the thing that strikes me most is that Porto are the first opponents in quite a while who haven't clogged the box. They're actually giving us half a pitch to run into. And Costa has just proven that even when not confronted by a back eight, he's still not likely to bother the keeper.
December 9, 201510 yr Costa has had one of his best games this season for us, probably his best, but its clear to see the pace is gone
December 9, 201510 yr Costa has had one of his best games this season for us, probably his best, but its clear to see the pace is gone Injuries have clearly taken a few yards of pace from him so he's not a threat when facing up defenders
December 9, 201510 yr Time to bring on Kennedy? His pace could certainly help seeing as we're catching them on the counter more
