too many chance wasted.

remy looking better than last match. no ppl at middle.. chelsea play too narrow.

at least score 1 more la. get easy group and still lose points?

almost again. Come on you blues!

draxler out. good news for us lol. 5 more mins to bag 1 more

bayern 1-0 damn i guess wrongly chelsea match

mourinho also wanna play

gg 1-1 good nights

noob chelsea.. another draw with mc this weekend

Predicting score in the middle game no good yo.
always kena jinx.
I learn my lesson last seasons.
I insaf liao these seasons.

well. 1-1. This games serve as a proof that Drog can't play more than 45 min. His role will be impact sub only imho. Shud've sub in Remy earlier, maybe in the 55th minute.

Btw, the scoreline do not reflect the game. We had tons of chances. Drog's header from Luis' cross, Drog's chance on goal, Fab dirasuk Torres shot high over the bar inside d box, Drog's rugby goal, Hazard's 2 chance that went over d bar. On another day, it could've been 6-1 to us.

Just that Drog's age is coming up against him. On many occasion, Drog don't have the pace to run clear on goal anymore and apply the finish. Post up play oso not as gud as the younger Drog dy. We gotta be a bit realistic here. Drog's appearance is more of a morale boost to the team. In terms of quality, he is not the same Drogba anymore. If we started with Costa up top, sure win dy.

Mou juz doing what a manager does, resting his key player for the big clash during the weekend. And it kinda back fired a bit. Maybe starting Remy would've been a better choice. But seeing Drog score again in Stamford Bridge, I think that brings too much sentimental value. Which is why Mou started Drog. Coz he wants Drog to score and give something to the fan. But the reality is cruel. Drog is not his old self anymore.

Lol our group g all same score.
anyway chelsea underestimate schalke.

Rrelaaaaaxxxx


But i cant relax w our defence. Poor tibo had to deal these terrible defensive plays

Well remy upfront would have been enough...

Yea. But the fans, Mou, the players, all wanted Drogba to score in the Bridge again. So I guess that's why Mou started with Drog. The roof will go off if he'd scored tonite.

lucky all draw at group g... still got hope

i was like wtf when nobody tackle draxler and huntelaar

I don't see this as a wake up call or what. We have 1 eye on the game against City by resting Azpi and Costa.

But a bit disappointed that the trident and striker stopped pressing up top after we score. After we score, u can see that Willian, Hazard, and Drog like more relax dy. Hence less pressing from the top to create loose ball and chances for ourself.

But then on a good note, Hazard seems to be helping out in defends a bit today. And also his work rate in closing down and winning balls up top today is very gud imo.

yeah. everybody can see it. Cant really start Drogba and expect to play him so long. he too old and rusty already. Should have at least started Remy if wanted to rest Costa. But it would be good to start him and see him score 1 at Chelsea home.

Our def problem still got holes. Getting caught from counter attack.

Jose Mourinho confirms that Costa is not fit enough to play mid-week games, as he is trying to fight off injuries.
