Of course not to the extent of declaring 'yes we're going to be relegated,' but be man enough to admit that yes,"we're practically battling relegation at the moment with our inconsistent performances." It's that proud insistence that we'll 'never' be battling relegation that bothers me.

The way I see it,we're already in a relegation battle and I'd rather we accept that horrible fact right now until we claw ourselves up the table,rather than wait till we're only left with 5 - 7 games,then suddenly realise,oh sheet we're only 3 points off the dropzone. Even if the whole team collectively sheet their pants,at that moment it's not going to help us at all.

We need to stop being in denial. None of that top six finish talk because i feel it gives the players a false sense of security. the last team that truly believed it was 'too good to go down' was Leeds, and they had some amazing players such as viduka and kewell.

I fear the way we're going about things and our seemingly confident mantra of being 'too good to go down,' will only land us in more trouble. Players like matic,cesc,ivanovic,(just to name a few) they all seem to really believe that, because its showing in their performances.

So sad that we lost to a promoted team at home... No offense to Bournemouth... They defend resolutely and our attacks are just toothless....

surprisingly Ivanovic did quite good in this game, his crosses are so dangerous and waiting for poacher to poach on it... but none of our players poach on them... last time we have Lampard doing it... two season ago, Oscar used to do it... Costa used to do it last season.... now that he is off form, he doesn't do the things that he was supposed to do...

disappointing... And Remy's lack of playing time doesn't help... If Costa is not playing, why not start Remy? Hazard is clearly a wide player where most of the time, he goes to the side to receive the ball... If playing false 9 is the answer, I think Cesc will be doing a better job...

For me, cesc is d worst player right now...his passing really bad right now, matic too..when we r counter attcking, instead of surging/passing forward, he pass to d back

Pedro for me, his work rate is very good, but unlucky coz he is too small n easily taken down by opponent

Mou only left a week to prove himself
