yeah I know its 3 goals but non of thoes would be call soft. There were classy finish.
Still, the defensive effort were impressive, such effort could easily earn us a clean sheet on another day.

I'm not after clean sheets, but after a team that can play football.
It's not hard.

It's something we do as kids as soon as we're able to kick a ball.
It reminds me of a boxer with his hands up over his face for 12 rounds hoping he doesn't get knocked out.
Our football is dire. Truly dire.

Wow, do I need to say anything, or will others take up the mantle here.

Is this what it's like to be not me looking at me?

Sorry lads.

Did you watch the game?

1st half we played some really good stuff, along the floor, no hoof. 2nd half was backs to wall.

If you think we were dire with Yobo, Distin, Cahill, Arteta, Jags and Neville out and getting a point at Stamford Bridge in a match that didnt resemble a Sunday league game..then we're on different ends of the opinion spectrum.

Maybe we were fortunate, but **** me we need a bit of fortune at the moment.

Fact is, we grinded out a result. We scored 3 goals at Stamford Bridge.

That's the spirit.

I thought we'd get spanked 3-0, so bagging 3 goals however flukey they were and a point while not looking like an absolute mess of a team (see the Hull game for that one).

It's an outstanding result. Make no mistake about it.

You don't fluke 3 goals against the team that is probably going to win the title, on their own ground.

We just did

although it does look like the corner has been turned. This patched up side is getting used to playing together now

And the first side to take a point at Stamford Bridge this season.

Yeah - far more positives to take then negatives at the moment. Now the game is over I can relax and be happy that we have taken a point off a very good side.

I see no reason to get all worked up about it.

Sure a win would have been nice, and could have happened. But realistically speaking a draw is a superb result.
