Can't fault Mourinho. It was his game plan to frustrate LFC and snatch a winner if it's possible. In the end it was a little "gifted" because of Gerrard's mis-control and slip but they took advantage of it 100%. Fair play.

Good effort in the CL Chelsea. I thought Mourinho chased for that 2nd goal a little too early though. AM exploited the gaps when they had the ball after the Eto'o and Ba sub. Maybe could have waited a little later.

QUOTE(briantwj @ May 1 2014, 05:06 AM) It's a justified gamble. Just played it too early. Also, midfield bocor/missed tackles several times. It seemed like AM penetrated way too easily when they counter attacked in the second half. But anyways, best PL team in the CL this season la. Next season still in Pot 1 of the draw. It's ok

QUOTE(briantwj @ May 2 2014, 11:45 AM) For me, I would love to see Lukaku get recalled next season, Falcao signed. Keep Ba/Eto. I think Lukaku deserves the chance. 2 seasons on loan at West Brom and Everton dy prove that he is up to PL standard, maybe not as good as Drog YET, but he can definitely learn more playing with Chelsea. For Falcao, nid to wait and see. He is still injured at the moment, let's see if he is the same player after he recovers from injury. If he is still that prolific, I would definitely splash the cash. Costa still 50/50, but duno why I got a feeling that Costa is already a done deal.  So what about your 50M pretty boy? No love for him no more?

QUOTE(briantwj @ May 2 2014, 01:56 PM) well...i still have love for him. but its evident he is not suited to the formation that Chelsea play and the players in Chelsea. Torres needs some1 like Gerrard, Alonso or Mata to play with him in the same team. He need some1 that can provide killer pass, so Torres can juz focus on being in line with the last defender and wait for the through ball. This was proven last season when Rafa was in charge. Mata and Torres was starting most of the game. With both of them playing, Torres kinda capture his old form, but not fully. Ever since Mata's sale, we do not have such player that can provide though ball like Mata anymore. Judging by this season's performance, Torres is totally out of sync with the trident players. It is better for him to move on. Or for us to move on. I still love him as a player and his contribution. The goal against Barca was....hhnngghh!!!  Yes, you're right. I think Torres feeds on good supply. He doesn't create for himself much, or not as much as he used to anyway. Wonder what's gonna happen to him this summer. Clearly doesn't fit into Mourinho's tactics but who wants him with his wages?
