i believe we should not afraid to taking risk. if i'm the manager, i'll surely put Luiz+Torres+Meireles in the team. to hell with his clumsiness, Luiz is the best CB for Chelsea.

KTBFFH

Lucky now my concentration goes to Harimau Muda, i accept the defeat with open heart.

We obviously very lack of pace, pressure and creativity. with the likes of Mikel, Lampard n JT we were left far behind in terms of speed.

But i'm happy for Drogba coz i think he played well last nite. and Malouda too ain't bad either.

I don't mind to end this season empty handed.

exactly my thoughts too. Luiz winning many ball then JT, JT losses ball so often and when he react rather slow which understandably so. But, Luiz positioning is what worrying me though. Our defenses seems easily counter by opponent that supplying through pass between him and JT or other full backs because of this.

Mikel is talented footballer, but his style doesn't suit AVB tactic and he fail big time yet again. AVB like to play attacking football by deploying high line of defense. with Mikel there, the possibility for us to get counter attack is big. he's slow to react, too complacent and lack of pace. But his ball control, vision and long ball pass sublime.

it's okay to lost an away match in UCL.

to be frank, we deserve to be where we are now. with Torres misfiring, old players get aging day by day. AVB a young manager came with huge expectation burden on him. all this pressure will somehow in the end bring nothing but negative results.

however, we shall not giving up hope. Chelsea will secure the last 16 spot that's for sure. even we had to kill Sepp Blatter and Platini to achieve it.

was he?

Mata should be given some rest after brilliant performance, and i believe AVB will replace him with Kalouda.

Kalou ain't that bad, he just been average especially after Torres came in.

wait, where is Anelka? it's been a while since i saw him play in the central role position.

a 50 million Torres is not fringe players. even a 2nd string Chelsea should be more than capable of putting a good fight. especially playing at home.

u need to make 100 shots to get 1 goal against Chelsea during the Mourinho's era.

it's too little too late now. enough is enough, i'm gonna jumpe to Citeh bandwagon. Silva oh Silva u're my hero.

back to serious note, i just admit that we're not up to that standard. i wouldn't want to bring argument with my fellow blues mate. so i rest my case here, one thing for sure i'm blue through and through that i never lose faith in every players or every manager in tenure since Ranieri. To be a loyal fans is one thing, being a honest spectator is another. i tried to be both.

sometimes we do really need someone like krk24 in this thread.. after all, he still remain a loyal Chelsea fans despite all the cursing and whatsnot since 2008. haha

i have a feeling that our fixture with Man City will be our turning point for this season.

what a truly gentlemen. just being sacked few months ago, but now come out and gave such constructive comments towards his successor.
