Chelsea (H) Post Match

[Exiled_red]

I know we're still in it but it does feel like we've blown it.

[Chris]

The corruption away to City and Chelsea is going to cost us more than we could ever have imagined at the time.

[el matador]

Probably because breaking down Chelsea is, y'know. Hard.

They came in with a plan, we came in with a plan, they executed theirs marginally better. It happens.

Agree. Were not the only ones to struggle to break Chelsea down. Theyre a very good defensive team. Better attacks than ours have struggled to break them down.

I don't think city will get 12 points. I think we will now get 6.

I'm quite relaxed tbh...

[Vermilion]

Every cheap ****ty headline will about Stevies slip and his previous comments!


I'm avoiding all media till the next game unless City drop points today.

Come on Tony Pulis!!!! and the lads! You CAN ****in do it! please please plseas do IT!

For me!

[Montana]

Not over by a long shot. Poor performance but we are still in pole position. Can't see City winning all 4 games.

We might just need 4 points to clinch it.

[BubbaZanetti]

Gutted!!

It's City's to lose now that result gives them a huge boost.

We needed a strong ref today and Atkinson wasn't that, he let them away with too much ****. They wanted to break up play get all the little nothing fouls and break up play. By not allowing quick freekicks and not punishing their time wasting he played into their hands. Schwarzer was warned 4 times in the first 35 mins about time wasting but was never booked. IMO that is awful officiating, he clearly knew what they were doing and barely added any time on for it. 3 and 4 mins is what you typically get in games when there is no time wasting.

They were allowed to kill the tempo from the very outset with their gamesmanship.

We were very short on ideas though and our lack of depth was exposed.

[Pablo]

Come on Palace! Keep believing guys, keep the faith.

[cream]

As **** as their tactics were, we weren't good. We were really rubbish up front. Still top of the league, city still have to win their games.

[Icon]

Bad day to have a bad day but the season is NOT over FFS.

[Che Scouse Guevara]

Still 2 points clear at the top. We'll beat Palace and Newcastle.

The corruption away to City and Chelsea is going to cost us more than we could ever have imagined at the time.

Or the home defeat to Southampton, draw to Villa, Toure's cock-up against West Brom, Allen's horror miss at Goodison, Gerrard's slip against Chelsea.

Disappointing result, but it's not over. Let's not throw on the towel yet we're still in a strong position.

I'd let those terrible refereeing performances slide to the back of my mind.

Could be so costly.

Nah.
