Let's move on guys, focus. We are here to support the team regardless anything, of course we are free to give our own opinion.

remember this quote:
Bill Shankly : "If you can't support us when we lose or draw, don't support us when we win."

YNWA. Let's focus on upcoming matches.

what would you expect from plastic fans?

Chelsea used to play beautiful football when Zola was around, now? Masterclass is a word thrown around, losing its meaning.

exactly. we cant be sour grapes everytime an opposing team plays safe. onwards, i say. find a way around that strategy! hold the ball longer, lure them out etc!

....but i'm not sure on how to handle the time wasting strategy

so, what if all our coming opposition uses the same approach? put it into the next game, what if crystal palace comes into the game with the same approach?
agreed that we achieved the target, now its only stretching it. still it saddens me to see the title hope slipping right from Stevie's feet when we're so close to the glory, after all these years and when he is the only individual left in the squad that deserves it the most

Or we can blitz cp n magpies with a combined goal diff of 10+

I guess that will work as well

well, at the end of the day winning is all that matters.

And Chelsea didn't cheat (dive, simulation, etc.).

The strategy was almost laughably obvious. After just seven minutes both Steven Gerrard and Jon Flanagan had to visibly wrestle the ball back from Mourinho on the touchline, and Martin Atkinson was seen having a word with Frank Lampard after only 20 minutes over the amount of time-wasting. Luis Suarez's sarcastic applause of Mark Schwarzer taking his time to clear the ball during the first half simply indicated the frustration caused by the tactic.

You couldn't blame Chelsea for their approach, but it again invited a cloud of hypocrisy to surround their manager. Just a month ago, Mourinho publicly chastised a ballboy during Chelsea's defeat at Selhurst Park.

"The kids are educated to do this, but if a player hits a ballboy then the person who educates them disappears," Mourinho claimed.

"I had a chance to get the kid and the kid was cute and I told him: "You do this, one day somebody punches you."'

You see, Mou is Mou. He's hypocritical. He's a 'badboy' of sorts.

But none of those traits caused our defeat to them.

It's hard to swallow, but we were beaten by a superior defensive display against our toothless attacking display.

There's no point pondering upon this point anymore.

On the rumours of a Chelski fan spiting on the Hillsborough Memorial, I hope it isnt true. If it is, then I'll gladly place them in the same Ranks as manu fans.

The difference is AM players were patient, and probing with passes, run behind defenders. 2 similar goals scored due to run behind defender.

While Liv players clearly were frustrated and lose patient and cool head by time wasting and slow down tempo act, hence make Chelsea defenders had an easy game of defending.

If the bus parking tactic is a blueprint how to play against Liv or an on form attacking opponent, then AM display is a blueprint how to slice open the parked bus.

I stayed up late last night, to witness tactical MASTERCLASS..and indeed, it was...by A.Madrid...If i can write a headline, its got to be, No-Mour-Masterclass..yadda i know its corny...thats why am still a keyboard warrior...Benitez is master tactician, but Moan basically tell his team to - " ok lads, i need u all to be organize, dont lose your shape, make sure you are at least 10 yards away from half way line...yes at least 10 yards, better still no more than 10 yards away from our goalkeeper, as a referrence...I need player on the side to keep both flanks in check, close down any crosses into the box...and i need at least 2-3 players to close down opposition striker outside the box...and i need strikers to help out the defense..and if we do get the ball, pass it to either Hazard or Luiz..my tactics is Hazard to dribble out and Luiz to lump it upfield....remember well lad...." Its simple, anyone can be the special one....if you do as above, and make sure you have at least 300 million worth of talents to do the above, otherwise you'll be branded as Pulis wanabe....ohh..and it doesnt matter if your fullbacks are doing the 'rory delap' thingy...by launching long range missiles with every throw-ins...dont worry ppl, becos you have all the marquee signings, the fans wont accuse you of doing a Stoke....its master-stroke...my A$$...

tactical masterclass is what benitez did, some 5-6 seasons ago, when he is the 1st to introduce attacking fullbacks, double up as wingers, back tracking as complete fullback...that was masterclass, and over the years its adopted by many European clubs..of course i wont claim that Rafa invented it...probably just introduce it in the BPL, following barca's template....

As for A.Madrid, well they cut thru the Skis like hot knive to tofu....i helps if you have a player like Koke...his crossing reminds me of what SG used to do, especially on the left, with an inswinger..causing all sort of havoc...goalkeepers were damn if they came out, and damn if they dont....should get Koke...culd prove to be a master-stroke signing by BR...seriously...

LEL, Mata will tell the any players who think about joining chelsea, from Players of the year being drop to bench warmer and sold. What a unfortunate turn of event. I hope Willian and Salah see it coming when they decided to join them.

he probably miss Cheryl.

CR7, new achievement unlocked. Kung Fu side kick.

Agree, Pulis knows we are desperate for win + goals and he ain't gonna simply let us run and shoot. Blues showed the world that a good counter-attacking defense can dismantle us, we better not over do it else we will be doing City/Blues a favor instead.
Haha, never really liked him but CR7 been unlocking achievements in RM like nobody's business, Ferguson got a really good eye/scout to find him.

Yeah, to Houillier if I am not wrong.

unless CP beat us
