games like this totally pass Gareth Barry by. He has started the season badly and we have zero cover in front of our defenders even though we are playing to holders ?????.Super kev and naisey though wow.

He got his three years contract though.

And McCarthy is dreadful today. He offered no protection and let eveyone go past him. Christ.

*Grabs popcorn for the meltdown*

 

[toffeejack]

one of the greatest games of football i've ever seen tbh

 

[blue4eva77]

When you look at our start, and especially today, and Manure's, somewhere, David Moyes is sitting in front of his TV with a big smile on his face!

Moyes??

Obsessssssssssed. Honestly, what made you think of ginger bollocks?

 

[marnie]

Everyone log off. Go and have a pint.

This wank today isnt worth discussing.

Only saaving grace is that Roberto might have a wake up call and bring in a few loans ans spend what's left in the war chest.Which means for an exciting deadline day.

 

[AAAGGGHHH]

Although our defense were dirt at least we went out and attacked, if we sat back and never ventured outside our own box like burnley or Leicester the scrolling would have been a lot more respectable

 

[sheffcal]

Van Dijk is the man

 

[KevMirallas]

Well, I'm not as gutted as last week. I just feel dirty.

I need to lock myself in the shower and scrub this game off. Two weeks away from these belters will do me good.

That was like a pre-season game in terms of defending.

In possession we're boss but every time the opposition team gets the ball we're shocking. I worry because it would appear Barry, Distin and Jags have all lost their legs due to age.

McCarthy wasn't much better but he's doing the job of 2 men.

We need Stones and Besic (I know it was a howler) to come in for Jags and Barry.

However on the positives. Mirallas, Coleman, Naismith and McGeady were all excellent and Baines and Lukaku both had good games. There's not many teams that will score 3 against Chelsea and hit the woodwork twice.

That said. They could have scored double digits.

 

[Encoder]

Just LOL.

Stunned here...

I'M OUT, be arsed with all the WIGERTON FC shouts and the impending meltfest

Two weeks to sort it out Roberto...get to work

 

[TyphooToffee]

Just putting it out there. For every mistake we made today, are Chelsea midfielders just that much better than ours?

I mean the Coleman og was a brilliant run by hazard

In a word, yes. But that doesn't mean ours are bad.

 

[Blue Cheese]

He picks the team and sets the tactics. That is why.

And we gave 2 goals away in the first 3 minutes, how's that his fault, get a grip.

 

[bluelife]

On a side note though.....how OUTRAGEOUS would that goal from Mirallas had been to make it 5-4! Seamus Coleman is something else

 

[SunKing]

For me the past 3 games we have been crying out for fresh legs to come in midfield as barry and mcarthy have tired drastically. Yet they've played all 3 full games. Besic, mistake aside, should have come on earlier.
