Match Thread Chelsea (A) FA Cup

[Cate Fox]

Wellens done for pace again; I hope this doesn't get embarrassing.

 

[Motown Fox]

When it matters theyve just been able to outpace or outwit us.
Its gonna be a long afternoon at this ratw.

Nearly 3 then

 

[Jenks]

Was that Gally with Morgan alongside Kalou? he just gave up, should've kept pressing.

Exactly what I thought. Had he carried on running he could easily have cleared off the line.

 

[Brown Nose]

Could have been 4 or 5 already. We're a total shambles and NP is changing the team around in desperation.

 

[Graz]

They're showing the difference in class at the moment. They're looking rampant. We need to keep the ball - but easier said than done.

 

[Nottingham Fox]

Chelsea look like they'll score every time they go forward. This could be a cricket score.

 

[Profondo Rosso]

Just highlights the defensive naivety we've shown all season.

 

[Cate Fox]

If we could somehow get a goal, we might settle down...but with shit balls into the box I can't see it happening.

 

[MerseyFox]

They have given up already

 

[LeeCovFox]

I'm worried that this is going to get embarrassing. Was only last year they put 7 past Ipswich.

 

[Mawsley]

The back four are like bunnies in headlights.

 

[Profondo Rosso]

I'm worried that this is going to get embarrassing. Was only last year they put 7 past Ipswich.

I remember them putting 6 or 7 past teams under King Carlo. Think they scored over 100 goals that season.

 

[Graz]

I think Gally and Dyer have switched sides now.

But Gally has gone down badly there.

 

[Cate Fox]

This is actually painful to watch.

 

[Motown Fox]

Gally torn a muscle ?

 

[Miles Away]

Team selection naive beyond belief.

Pearson forced to change formation after 15 minutes.

Borderline stupid to play 442 against these.

 

[LeeCovFox]

So the "Leicester fans since the League Cup final replay in 1997" had a box at Chelsea until they bought us? Funny way to show their support, that.

 

[Motown Fox]

Wellens the weakest link again.

 

[Graz]

Team selection naive beyond belief.

Pearson forced to change formation after 15 minutes.

Borderline stupid to play 442 against these.

Easy to say that now.

If we'd gone 4-5-1 or something and it was going the same way, people would be criticising us using an untested system and being too defensive, inviting them onto us.

Don't forget they're 5th in the Premier League...

I'd imagine marketing and schmoozing potential clients would have something to do with it.
