Iva why u no first time shot!!!!

wrestling match between Ayew and Azpi.

Just about to praise Iva for the gud tackle, then he passed str8 to a Swansea player. lol

wtf Cahill doin, asking Azpi to do the running. So dangerous.

I wonder if this is Stamford Bridge or Swansea's home. Why ref side away team Swansea. Shudn't it be advantage to the home side?

1 thing is sure, our set piece delivery really x boleh

based on 2nd half, coz i only watched 2nd half.

- We need a RB that can defend as well as attack. Iva is exposed non stop by Montero, we are lucky Montero was subbed out.
- Costa complains too much. Got once I see he was easily outmuscled by a Swansea defender who is of smaller built compared to Costa
- Our set piece delivery is bad.

plus side is Begovic seems to be doing well. A few saves, 1 from near post, seems to be confident in catching balls in the air. We're in good hands.

I thot the Gomis foul by Courtois is bcoz of Willian? The backline was in place, but Willian wondering bhind our backline. When ball come thru for Gomis, Willian baru notice.

Cahill memang lack of pace and is a better player when we're on the back foot. Cahill was never the fastest runner or the pacey CB that we have. It's a known case.

If got chance, juz look at the replay. Willian definitely d culprit. Duno he doin apa so far bhind our backline. Our backline is doin a gud job keeping everybody in line, but Willian....

Azpi originally a RB, but his performance in LB is damn solid. Even replaced Cole as starter. His defense is solid, hence Mou will continue to use him at LB. If move Azpi to RB, yea, RB defense bcum solid, but LB how? Still not enuff back up. Hope Rahman comes as soon as possible.

didn't watch a single pre-season game. so i duno bout it.

Btw even thou that is not his natural position, he has cemented himself in the starting LB role. Semalam ada assist lagi. cukurlah i buy him in FPL.

^ Or LB. If we can find a LB as solid as Azpi, then no prob moving Azpi to RB. But again, it's all up to Mou. Based on my knowing of Mou, he will start again next match with Azpi, Cahill, JT and Iva.

Iva memang Mou's anak emas.

Just saw that Richards played for Aston Villa yday. Why we did not snap him up! He did quite well in yday's game le. Can play CB and RB. Can compete with Iva and keep Iva on his toes.

Any1 watching neighbor's game? Cech sudah kelong 2 goal.

That's the difference when u have JT and Cahill in front of u compared to Koncielny and Mertersacker in front of u. The 2nd goal, I dun think I see either 1 of them trying to use any body parts to block the shot. If it was Cahill and JT, both will put their body in front of the shot.

That's the Chelsea spirit. Stop the goal no matter at what cost, using which part of ur body.

inb4 park bus lettew.

we drew 2-2 at home. Neighbor now losing 0-2 at home. Sudd feel like yday's result not bad. lol

Arsenal kena Cechmate.

I thot they dy learned their lesson. I recall they grinded out result at the end of last season. But now.....mcm pancut awal dah.

I hope we go with Matic + Ram in pivot against City. Oscar, Hazard and Fab in trident. Willian impact sub.

Iva memang not first time dy. Since last season, a quick winger will totally expose Iva. Not to say Iva is not good. But we need a RB that can attack as well as DEFEND. Iva is very good in attacking, he can score, he can score header goals, bombarding the flank, but then his defending is not that good. His attacking side is stopping critics. But now it's getting worse. We nid to sign Baba as soon as possible. Azpi if played at RB, I think he can do both attack and defend well.

Just like Fab. He do well in pivot against lesser teams, but in CL against better midfielders, Fab's lack of pace in pivot also will be exploit. Just look at last season, opposition juz nid to put a runner on Fab, pressure him non stop when he has the ball in own half.

Hope Baba faster come ba. Then Azpi playing at RB can be achieved.

Well, I think Mou has the right to be angry, it's match time, adrenaline pumping, 2-2, 1 man down. If Hazard is receiving treatment and we concede a goal, memang habis lah. 1 point jadi 0 points. So under that circumstances and during the heated match, sure emotions will be flying around. Can't blame Mou for shouting at the medic team.

Mou did mentioned bout it during the post match conference. At first, I thot he mention bout it so that topics can be diverted to how we were down to 10 men, how we lost 2 points despite playing quite well. All this while I thot Mou talked bout it to divert attention from the team after losing 2 points.

But then it snowballed when Eva posted in social media. Which is not a good thing oso la. Eva could've go to Mou's office and voice her dissent behind closed door. Which is why Mou blasted at Eva by saying she is naive. I think Mou is referring to Eva's post in social media.

Hopefully it's all a masterstroke by Mou to distract the media's attention, relief the team's pressure and let the team prepare 100% for the next game against City. I can say that for the past few days news are mostly about Mou and Eva incident instead of how we drew 2-2 and Courtois not available against City.

^ Same can be said for Matic. On his day, he can make everyone look like a kid.

Rmb his debut against City? mad Yaya looked like a kid.
