Match Thread Chelsea v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[DrBungle]

I like being wrong sometimes.

And as much as I dislike Warnock, and rubbish though Cardiff are, Silva should still put out a strong side. We can't get complacent. We've dropped points to crap teams this season already.

And confidence breeds confidence

We lost our last two matches at Stamford Bridge as well.

Just watched the match in fast forward. Thought there were some solid performances but I thought Richarlison was excellent and both centre halves would have known they were in a game today as he kept them occupied for long spells

Lots to choose from but went for Sig. Pickers did well but there were a couple shaky moments and he didn’t do anything I wouldn’t expect most premier league keepers to do.

Its got to be causing some anxiety for the "top 6". Everton have now come into 3 away games against them, gave Arsenal all they could handle minus some finishing, and then played both Chelsea and Man U to a stalemate not-considering referee intervention. When you are at the top of the table you are supposed to win all of your home games against teams not spending over 200 mil per season.

Sky where gagging for Ross Scanner Darkly to do something against us. He made a toblerone out of himself.

Nah ,without Pickford we would have lost.
Credit where credit is due but overall a solid team performance against the current in form team.

 

[Neiler]

That’s our best performance of the season for me.

We were incapable of that 6 weeks ago, getting utterly bullied by WHU at home.

That gritty battling performance is a new dimension.

Proper teams have that in their lockers and identities.

Like I say that’s the most important performance of the season for me.

 

[blue61]

Arsenal 0-2
Manure 1-2
Chelsea 0-0
Next away game is surely a win yes? Who have we got?

Fantastic point, seen nothing as been at work. Sounded like a strong battling performance from what I have read, good stuff.

 

[Mo' Better Blues]

Went for Gylfi, as a previous poster mentioned he’s leading by example, great defensively and our best player offensively today (and the season to date), all round a really good team performance, we just needed to work their keeper a bit more, Walcott and Bernard need to be more ruthless and we’ll be A1...

 

[Walken]

Gomes for me, what a player this lad is

 

[Death]

I'm happy with the result n all but I don't be exactly buzzing about a point away to these sides anymore. Not winning away to them is very tiresome. And just become indifferent with a draw cause it just reminds me how long are we going to go on not getting one f'n win. Hate these international breaks.

Gomes for me, what a player this lad is

I don't think he had a great game today.

I mean, he played well, but just not at the level he has been in the other games.

But that's clearly down to us having less of the ball etc. Just think he was a bit off in terms of his passing/touch. Actually played a lot better when we moved to a 3-4-3.
