good game by mikel btw

Although I'm satisfied with a draw in the context of this season I feel like we were very unlucky not to take all three points today. We got off to terrible starts in both halfs but came back each time and I think we edged it overall. A few players are still underperforming but what's new.

I hope Zouma's OK. I also really want Mata back.

Mata MOTM?! Love the guy but I didn't think he was very special today, De Gea was much more influential for them.

Both keepers superb.

This it i try avoid the forum on most days too many negative comments looking where we were a few months ago United would of battered us the team showed real character to come back and not for their keeper we would of won easily. Hazard is coming back Costa scoring Cesc on form Willan fantastic all season Oscar getting better.. We are looking decent from where we were before. You can also see the passion on the team now always fighting now

We will see the passion when most of them go looking for champions league next season

Mikels been pretty good all season under Guus.

I'd much rather see Dave at RB and Baba at LB next week. Ivanovic is just too off the pace for me

 

Agree, but he DID look ok defensively today I think. He can't cross for his life, though. Honestly my head spins when I think about how many times he has attempted and failed a cross this season. For a player of his quality, it is baffling.  

It's Steve Harvey doing the post match interviews hahahaha

Love Mata!

Mikels been pretty good all season under Guus.

 

Looked very isolated in midfield but did a job. Bobbled a pass or two so unfortunately that means he is absolutely sh*t in all areas.

I wonder what he odds are on 13 consecutive draws?

I'd say United were slightly the better team today...for longer periods.

Dominate? No, f**k off.

Fair draw, at some point I felt that we could win that. I don't understand why can't we play that attacking football since the beginning of the game and not only when we're losing. We're playing defensively and still can't defend properly and most of the problems come from Ivanovic, can't see him playing anymore. He's experienced defender in the PL and can't deal with Martial.

 

I think that draw is acceptable, big credit to Terry and Costa for fighting until the end. Also get well Zouma!

Thought he was awful to be honest. No better than Matic today.

chelsea only started playing well the moment cesc dropped back after pedro substitution.  The Hazard Osca sub was useless cause the stupid defensive structure was maintained.  This has been happening for the last 5 games.  Its clear that the defensive tactics dont work with this squad we have!  please - please - please, just play the best that we have!  

 

I am happy we got a point!  thanks to our Diego!!!!  Also i love the fact we showed power after the matic sub.  Lets hope manager can just be honest with himself and choose to attack from kick off next game!

 

Come on Chelsea!!!!  just entertain us for the remainder of the season please!!!!  And play the attacking football against PSG - not this defensive sh*t!

why is it so hard to go for more offensive approach in a league where it's pretty much done and dusted as far as top 4 is concerned, don't tell me he really believes we're in dog fight thus we need to grind out even a point??

 

It's actually getting worse in term of favoritism, now we need to add mikel on top of ivanovic in team selection.. 

Juan Mata classy as always, have him back in a heartbeat, when we flog Oscar for Zillions!!

Think we can all see there's no need for 2 holding

mids today & weds when Matic was removed the team

came alive

Great to deprive Van Fail of a win at the bridge. Diego the

man you hate to love.

Come on Chelsea 12th place beckons !!!

Couldn't agree with you more. I like Guus, but we have nothing to play for in the league this season. I can't fathom as to why he doesn't let the team express themselves and rotate players to give them game time and experience

Because we're only 7 points above relelgation. Why can't people accept we're getting points at least. "Game time and experience" mate it's not the U21 premier league you can't fanny around and experiment and throw in a team of kids and expect them to go and win.

JT pulled Blind away from Costa for the goal, no JT up there and we lose today

Who are our CB backups now? Worryingly I can only think of Ivan, who hasn't played there a lot for us

On balance a good point considering the circumstances, anyone hoping for top 6, let alone top 4, is deluded. We have the raw quality to put together 20 minute bursts, but a full game is beyond us.

Hazard to start in place of Matic next week please.

Just think what a Neymar will do to Ivan. He gets owned every match other than Arsenal.

Unfortunately, we won't reach a stage to play Barca though this season.However, no one wants to drop him.

Could some people on here stop calling our manager a fcking coward? Fcking hell

And play the attacking football against PSG - not this defensive sh*t!

 

And when they slaughter us for it?

JT f**king legend

Stan up for the spineless one
