Chelsea v Everton. 11th Feb at 19.45.

[Hangleton]

We start to lose the game when we pick up stupid bookings after 5 and 25 minutes. We need to cut that kind of thing out.

Howard getting beaten at near post shocker

He's crap, Not arsed

Great message to the fringe players tonight, Play well and I will still drop you

 

[Del]

I'm not happy people think it is an achievement

Are you happy that other people are happy

 

[barneygumble]

Agreed. Why the [Poor language removed] didn't he try to stop the ball??? 9 out of 10 goalkeepers would have stopped that goal.

Natural instinct is to at least make an effort at diving isn't it?

 

[Blue Cheese]

We will maul Leicester n destroy the cockneys Everton Aren't we!!

Quite sure we lost it around 88mins when they scored

 

[The Esk]

The type of performance that desperate relegation threatened teams put in. Make no mistake the manager and team are in fear right now, they realise we are in a relegation scrap and hope to grind out a few results. Villa will get a new manager and will pull clear of the drop. You never know the same might be true of qpr. If we accept that palace and west Brom are safe that leaves burnley Leicester hull and sunderland as our only rivals for the drop. Leicester are probably gone but what if they sack Pearson and the new man galvanises them. Burnley hull and sunderland are all capable of stringing a few results together. We are in deep deep trouble and could go down as I can't believe the players believe in this kind of anti football.

How's the bet going mate?

Played really well and against a very good team. Lots of positives. Looking forward to bern now. COYB

 

[Toffeelover]

No way is this acceptable in any way shape or form. Not even in the slightest.

As I said before do not see why he had to come out.

 

[mrb85]

I can only presume you are a blind man.

Hes standing straight ffs, all he has to do is drop his hand down and he pushes wide.

And the first mistake there is his shithouse attempt at a punch, too scared of taking a hit

Not too critical about the punch, but as for the 'attempt' to save the shot.....

 

[marty mcfly]

Just unlucky tonight.

Good to see us put in another strong defensive display. It wasn't long ago I didn't think we'd be capable.

Concerns again over the final third though. Barkley/Naismith/Mirallas/Lennon. They need to do more.

Thought Barkley's work rate was pretty poor tonight.

It's Naismith. Everything breaks down at him. If only Kev and Barkley could put a bit more effort in off the ball.

Leicester with all there fiascos have a break. We play in the europa the Thursday. Lose to Leicester and it really is squeaky bum time.

 

[Blue Cheese]

As much as I deplore Howard being selected over Joel and He maybe didn't save the goal. He made a couple of great saves too, all about perspective I suppose.

To be fair I was glad Howard was back in as I don't trust Robles and I thought Howard did well but your point playing well and then getting dropped for the so called regulars is a great one. Sends out all the wrong messages

How's the bet going mate?

Looking good after tonight's debacle mate. We are playing with absolute fear and that is what relegation teams do.
