Chelsea

cant believe we lost

AVB looks like JUAN MATA!

I still think AVB is doing OK. Chelsea should keep him for like 20 years. Let see how Chelsea will be

Even though I was dissapointed with Chelsea's loss. I have to take into account that this is the first time Chelsea lost so far. We were good that night and Leverkusen are good also. It's not over yet, because Chelsea have to win Valencia because at the moment Valencia has better goal difference than Chelsea cuz they trashed Genk 7-0. I still believe in Chelsea. Look at Man Utd and Man City, they are in the same position as Chelsea.

AVB looks like messi in his old age

chelsea fans can you tell me do we have to win with valencia or if we tie we still qualify and why we are in second they in 3 place the have 12 goals we have 10 can somebody please tell me if we tie can we still qualify

giv chelsea sme tym......dey hav a tendency f cmin bak strngly.....v hav seen t last season......dey hav a lot f gr8 players.....AVB jst needs 2 put dem in d right order tats al....!!!!!

AVB really needs to rebuild the team. Chelsea is too old now. They need to sack some old players and buy quality CM, CB and WF.

goodbye Valencia...maybe

Offside and no penalty. great like always. but they could win...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

@portugalUNited fuck U

f

chelsea players lost the winning confident ady..

its good to see AVB brought the teamwork to the team...i think this philosophy needs time...at least their game is no more dependent on individuals

AVB looks like a rooster

goodbye chelsea...maybe

trouble for Chelsea. The Germans are good this year! Especially Bayern! Don't underestimate them! they palyed fantastic !

After the game everybody is switching shirts except Cech and Ballack they switch masks!

High Line again?? I think this guy AVB is trying to destroy Chelsea and get sack quickly which will cost Roman Abramovich £20m?? Honestly which clubs in the the Premier League play high defensive line, Better yet who in Champion league play high defensive line like us?? God, I wish he would realise soon that playin high defensive line is a tactic that will NEVER work. Yes,Barca play it, But Barca pitch is so much bigger than ours. Teams don't play counter attach at Nou Camp because the pitch is so big that you wouldn't have enought team-mates to help you counter-attack!! I am not speaking only in this games but other games where we got slaughter as well in term of result. The BIGGEST point here is When we play high defensive it's so easy for the opposition to gel together while pressing and close up spaces which means we wouldn't be able to penetrate effectively and ends up passing it to a striker who WILL have 2 to three players marking him. David Silva last year was being used as Mata is used right now and he was poor. this season city decided to play him in the middle and now he gets involved almost every city goals and passes. Why Wouldn't AVB try that with Mata instead of playing him in wings where he wouldn't be able to get involved in midfield passes and have to wait for ball?? I say Drop the High Defensive play and let Chelsea back four play close to cech and let the oppostion players come looking for the ball which will eventually let to spaces leave behind them, It's what Chelsea used to play like and other any Prem teams play, ALL this guy needed to do at chelsea is replacing old playes with young hungry players and tell them to move the ball quickly while also contributing to defence . I see our first our first goal in this game and Sturridge was just walking high up the pitch knowing that there was a player behind Ivanovich left unmark he could have just shouted to Ivanovich to be aware if he didn't feel like tracking back. The same happen with Malouda in Liverpool games where if he showed enought determination in covering Ashley Cole he coould have got the ball when Glen Johnson put the ball through Ashley Cole. Even Ferguson,Mourinho, Pep Gourdiola don't used high defensive line like this because they know it will encourage the opposition teams that they have a chance if they saw HUGE spaces behind defenders like ours, What Makes AVB thinks this will work in Prem league where teams like to lop the ball forward and are dangerous/good at counter attacking?? Drop it AVB and concentrate on making the players pass quicker and are contributing in defence. Because honestly we are not even playing attacking football,are we?
