Chelsea Away - 29/12/2013

[King Emlyn]

Two proper tests and we've failed both, simple as.

[Phoenix]

dunno what he thought he was getting with aspas. Ge talked a lot about signing men in the summer.

 

he looks slow, light weight and shit.

 

If only he was our problem today. He played around 10 mins in total.

[FrenchEyeGlass]

 

Hardly hailing Webb is he?

 

Liverpool boss Rodgers on Samuel Eto'o's challenge on Jordan Henderson: "Eto'o was very fortunate to be on the pitch. The challenge was a poor challenge. I know we scored from it, but he was nowhere near the ball."

Rodgers on late penalty appeal against Eto'o: "You've seen them given and Eto'o was not even looking at the ball. He's been streetwise and cute and was looking to block Luis. If he's intentionally blocking our man it's a penalty is it not? But Howard Webb was on the spot and we have to accept it and move on."

 

 

No, you're right, I just dreamed the interview I watched and listened to with my very eyes and ears.

[Russ Atmosphere]

Unfortunately, he did.

 

Now we'll have internet superfans turning themselves inside out trying to defend him.

 

Bollock dropped.

 

We'll get the opposite too.

[spider-neil]

For me when Sturridge is fit again he has to play through the middle because he is the only presence there, as prolific as Suarez is he drops deep, he pulls wide, it means the likes of Coutinho have a much harder job of playing him in.

[DirkDiggledinho]

Also worth bearing in mind that Mourinho's home records is ridiculous and City have won every home game in the league this season. Our top 4 destiny isn't going to be decided by our games there.

 

Correct. Although I wish we'd been able to show a little more balls because I reckon if we'd gotten more positive results in these games we could've been aiming even higher than fourth.

 

Regarding Webb, he's a homer and always will be. He's one of those refs who doesn't like upsetting the crowd and won't give a penalty to the away team unless the player's literally had his leg hacked off. It happens, if we'd only shown a bit more bottle we wouldn't have needed the penalty.

Well you are a complete retard so it wouldnt surprise me!

Tests which no one else has passed either. Not so simple.

Suarez was on his own today. Most of the time against four or five Chelsea players. It's a tactical problem i.e. the lack of support rather than the individual.

[Coro]

Was obviously being sarcastic.

 

no, no he wasn't.

[MOGLET]

"We need 4 players, Rodgers' tactics, Johnson pack your stuff, Lucas you are shite..."

 

typical shite from the sky generation.

 

FA is deeply corrupt and so is your entire country.

 

We need more than 4 to be fair, and GJ has been shite, Lucas? not too sure as he needs to buck himself up a lot more.

 

Sky generation? was sky going in 74? thats when I started as a red.

 

If you dont like the country, then fuck off and follow a team from your own.

 

FA, totally agree, bit like FIFA but here.

 

 

Today was shite, subbing was shite, bench is shite, we deserve better.

[usernameunknown]

Tests which no one else has passed either. Not so simple.

Yep, infact its only us and Everton who have a win away to a top 7 team this season I believe.

[J-V]

Two proper tests and we've failed both, simple as.

 

With helping hands from the officials.  We can only beat what's in front of us and with these useless officiating cunts also against us it makes the job near impossible.

[FrenchEyeGlass]

Well you are a complete retard so it wouldnt surprise me!

 

That is true, but what is even truer is that you can suck my cock.

 

And g'night.

[Trumo]

We've probably got the worst game with which to rebound from these 2 reverses. It's got 1-1 written all over it. A Steve Bruce-managed team at Anfield early in the new year, doing fuck all for 85 minutes, riding their luck and then scuffing a goal in with their only effort on goal, never mind on target. I hope it goes more like our home form in recent games instead.

But...but...you do realise they've got Tom Huddlestone, don't you?

Havent they just won 6-0 or something too? Sigh.

[spider-neil]

Also I think the only away wins between the top 8 are;

Arsenal at Newcastle

Liverpool at Spurs

 

Unless I'm much mistaken that is ALL

[King Emlyn]

We've played City, Arsenal and Chelsea away from home and we've lost them all. Not good enough.

Yep, would be quite typical of us to fuck that up.

[Mathewbet1]

As a team we are a bit like a boxer who's taken some tough hits, we need to dust ourselves off and go again.

"I'd rather sell groundnuts in my village than to play for a pathetic team like Chelsea." - Samuel Eto'o, 2005.

[spider-neil]

Good rule of thumb;

We aren't the best when we win.

We aren't the worst when we lose.

[Kevin D]

We've played;

Everton

Chelsea

City

Spurs

Newcastle

Sunderland (fighting for survival)

 

Away.

Equally, we've played 6 of the bottom 7 at Anfield and we're only 3 points ahead of 8th placed Newcastle.

We aren't the worst when we lose.

I agree, but the problem comes when people start talking about title challenges. We're not even approaching good enough, fourth place will take a monumental effort.
