Poor poor performance.

Hazard Mikel Drog lacks fitness. Not sharp. But hazard looks beter from the bunch.

Bremen are a week behind in terms of preseason preparation and we can't even test their goalkeeper properly.

super boring second half. not even 1 shot on goal registered. still a lot to do before the season start.

good to see drogba back in the team. a poor performance from him though. heavy touches, misplaced passes. rusty.

good work by bremen defence. very organise and manage to keep our chances to minimal.

Jose blaming the referee haha.

next game 8th August 2014 in Turkey.
1st half against Fenerbahce and 2nd half against Besiktas.

Well I have no complaints on the performance.
Mainly due to lack of fitness and match sharpness by those who just join the teams.
There is still lots of fine tuning on the teams.
it is better for us to loss now and discover the teams weaknesses.

drag down to earth.

better now than in nov/dec period.

i've got no problem with the fact that this is preseason..but we should have had more chances up front. I was bored just watching the match. we gave the ball away too easily. We need to work on the sharpness. Torres as usual was agonizing to watch :/

Courtois did well with tht save in the first half.. nothing he could have done abotu that 2 goals. Just bad defensive mistakes.

Juz watched the highlight. To be fair, the goals are not Courtois' fault. For both the penalty, Courtois actually went the right way. Just could not get a hand to it.

For the header goal, can only say it's a very gud header.

brian, Cortois and Cech went the right way respectively.

And indeed fantastic place header.

Mourinho blaming ref iirc "The last penalty is just perfect way to complete his party tonight"

eh...did not noticed that the 2nd penalty Cech was the keeper. missed his trademark headgear. lel.

Both penalties are questionable imho. D 1st is very dubious, some ref gives it, some ref don't. While the 2nd penalty. I think Ake actually got the ball, just that the follow through caught the player.

Am i the only that is happy when we go 1-0 down ? I prefer we play all the friendly starting with 1-0, so the opponent will park the bus. Our biggest problem is always breaking down the bus and seeing our recent friendly, we still fail to do.

We really need to up the tempo and play fast 1 2 pass to break the bus. Although crossing are a safer choice with higher chances to retrieve the ball if it was intercepted compare to short pass but crossing success rate are kinda low because our other player (beside DROG and COSTA) dont really like to attack the ball in the air. Somemore we are playing inverted winger, they have to drag the ball back if they want to use their favorite or more accurate foot to cross. Our winger should be given permission to swap position more often.

I also think player like WILLIAM, DROG even RAM (although he like to aim the fans ) will give us more option against park the bus team as they will try from outside the box often.

We really need to sort this problem soon, if we want to be win BPL. And mean defense is a must, as long as we dont concede first, we will at least face a bus mini not double decker

Romeu loaned to stuttgart.confirmed

wah bro, y u so fast poke. I google-d, the news juz on 6 minutes ago.

Romeu off, now we have 18 international players, who next to leave?

Sell Mikel and get Pogba?

Di maria to PSG? Cavani leaving?

aik, thought enough 17 already after 1 loan player.

Every1 forget about marin?

well, we have enuff depth in trident. Even if he stays, I tihnk Mou might make the decision not to register him for PL.

I did mentioned his name before. Seems he on his way out also.

also, Moses. didnt see him come back with the team. Mikel already around, but not him

i dont think marin and moses consider by mou as good enough for the first team. expect both of them exit stamford bridge this window.

p/s: until today still cant brain why RDM buy moses.
