Star Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Firstly let me say i'm not here to say Big Phil should be sacked, I supported the decision to bring him here, but the geezer's interview after the West Ham draw bordered on the insane. "I have problems, when I bring on another striker I lose a player in midfield." For kin' sakes Phil - West kin' Ham, 4 4 2 !!! Match them and discard a holding midfielder it's simple !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Drogba, Anelka, Deco if you must, with Lampard, Joey Cole and an advanced Mikel when required it aint rocket science. West Spam like for like 11 v 11 same formation EASY EASY EASY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ballack for me is playing EXACTLY like he did with Jose, I don't know what Avram did to him but the form he showed then is a distant past to the slow, miss placed passing garbage he is supplying (along with Deco I might add) of late. I repeat you CANNOT play two men with cigars on in the same midfield. Ballack and Milkel are as about compatable as me and my ex mrs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Without Robben and Duff, Jose's Championship formation is worthless. Football is a simple game, at home, unlike West Spam who had a go, teams stick men behind the ball and one in the middle up the front is madness total madness .... The Drog HAS TO PLAY with Anelka. Dunno if his hospital visit confused him but jesus, his after match comments were Christian Gross like. Wilkins should pull him to one side and remind him we didn't sign Robinho, because the system he is playing is like a ghost in his line up. As some said no plan B, but without bringing it up too much it was felt he was in the onion bag, but hey Drog and Anelka are plan AA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Someone's brain needs servicing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makelele Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 i watched our championship seasons last night on DVD, i wanted to cry...i miss jose, i thought i was over him...im not...our team has no heart at the moment...Scolari needs to get that winning mentality into our boys heads like Jose could do...back in the JM era if we were down or tied for some reason i had the feeling we would pull it off anyway-and we usually did....but now anyone has a shot at us.

Long gone are the days when you wanted teams to take the lead at the Bridge - in the full knowledge that they would be creamed after that - West Ham being a prime example - and we only had 10 men Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea Lad Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Anyone remember that game at Stamford Bridge vs West Ham in the Jose era. I think we were 1 down and with 10 men in under 10 mins? If memory serves me correct we went on to win 4-1 and was one of our greatest games leading up to our second PL title in as many years. Kinda expected the same to happen yesterday when we drew level... Thing is with Scolari he's not been good with the media. Whether this is because he struggles with the language or because he's trying to remove the fiesty reputation he has...I dunno...but he needs to start playing the ol' mind games and start showing more passion and hunger. Like others have said, a formation tweak and a pacey winger is desperatly needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If memory serves me correct we went on to win 4-1 and was one of our greatest games leading up to our second PL title in as many years. I remember it well. We turned it around because of one man. Didier Drogba. He was absolutely fookin awesome that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to say that is my fav Jose Chelsea match . It does get lost how important that match was for us on that day . The chasing pack were playing later in the day after us and IF we had lost would have given them a chance to overtake us . All round preformance was just awsome . Total commitment and refusal to lose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total commitment and refusal to lose I agree.. and as Just said, it turned the crowd onto Didier for the first time as far as I am conceerened.. I hoped he was going to do the same on Sunday, he did show a couple of signs, but benefit of the doubt says he has not had many matches lately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWestwayWonder Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 (edited) I remember it well. We turned it around because of one man. Didier Drogba. He was absolutely fookin awesome that day. Dont forget Crespo. He was excellent that day too. Chelsea Lad has a good point in bringing up that game. That is the kind of statement result we are in dire need of right now. During that game, the world seemed to be on their back and the house of cards seemed to be crumbling all around them. And somehow they then they just snapped and went berserk Maybe Deco can get sent off in 15 minutes next game Good job we got rid of SWP eh? �_� Sorry, but SWP was nothing more a multi million dollar anchor on our payroll that took up a roster spot He was nothing compared to Duff and Robben and i'd rather have youngsters out there than him. He was a headless chicken Edited December 16, 2008 by TheWestwayWonder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
