Arteta has been playing the ball to the sides too much. Fellaini and Rodders were taking people on and going at goal. He should stay on the bench and watch a few games. We all know his class he just needs to start playing like it again.

This is as right as you can possibly get. They also get it out of their feet and have a pop from distance. Take note Best Little Spaniard.
 
well!!!

good result i suppose!

but i think we could all see the saha beckford change should have been done well well before it was!

i called beckford to score just wish i had got the score right too!

We didnt do that first half and tried passing it around their box as per usual. When we hit the flanks and spread the play, leaving the striker in and around the box, it worked and its basic. For some reason this season we've use the flanks less and tried to walk it in. The minute we use the wingers/full backs and get good deliveries in this season, we've scored. Not a coincidence that IMO.

But add to the fact Chelsea had a 3 man midifeld of Mikel, Essien and Ramires at one point did mean we could boss their midfield if we played it wide.

Oh aye, first half we were pretty rank.

What would we do without Leighton John Baines?

No Baines, no crosses. No crosses,no goals for Cahill. No goals for Tim, we'd be 20th.

But that's the thing....we're tending not to utlise him or the wingers and ping crosses into the box till late in the game. We're passing it around and looking like a poor mans Arsenal.

I know Moyes wants us to play better football...but use what you got. We seem more balanced on both wings so use them and get crosses in for Cahill or the strikers to get on to them. That's what Beckford did today, and what he's done when coming on as a sub when we are crossing the ball.

Its also why Bilya would be a cracking addition if he was just told to whip balls in.

Yes. I am worried deep down cos he hasn't gotten injured and I hope he doesn't but the amount of exertion he's put under...he might get injured and when that happens,there's none to fill in his boots. Cahill's goals will dry out.

My Brother was watching how he set up the goal and how hard he worked and even he said(man ure fan).." I feel for the poor fella "
