You really have become a Chelsea name dropper and hater haven't you, I'm thinking my original thinking of you hasn't changed!
Time for you to Join the Foxholer so I don't need to read your drivel.

Yet it's ok for Chelsea fans to drop Suarez into any conversation whenever a Chelsea player is criticised ?
Unless you can tell me why Suarez was brought into the thread ( again by a Chelsea fan ) when someone criticised Luiz ?
It appears it's ok when Chelsea fans "constantly" criticise Suarez but appears when a Chelsea player is at the receiving end ? That's different.

Chelsea heatmap from last night

Barcelona attacked AM in both games and got knocked out, Chelsea approached the game defensively and if you asked any fan they would have taken 0 - 0 before the game. You can't win the tie in the first game but you can go a long way to losing it.

That's a counter-attacking bus though.

I thought Chelsea were excellent last night. Defence is just as important as attack at the top level, just ask Barca when they tried to attack Bayern in last year's semi. Give Chelsea's back four to Bayern or Madrid and you have your CL winner.
BTW, no-one was calling Chelsea dull when they slapped a fluent Arsenal for 6 recently.
And no, I have no affinity to Chelski...

It does get underestimated. The idea of football is to win and if your defence is that good then why not use it?
Attacking football is more exciting but I do enjoy a superb defensive performance also.
Gary Cahill last night was an absolute colossus and its great to see how far he has come since he left us. I said I wouldn't swap him for many when he played for us and I still feel the same now :thup:

You can't knock the performance last night, I just think it is always dodgy going into the second leg without an away goal.

You know what Phil, it does not matter what team you support or hate. The bottom line here is the cheating that is within the game and has got worse over the last 10 years. It is now getting to the point that the young English players are now following this way of trying to influence the ref, that was not so much of a problem in the past.
We just have to accept it as part of the game, wether we like it or not and everyone needs to stop having silly little digs at each others teams, because we are all as bad as each other.
There's a huge difference between mentioning an individual like Suarez who has controversial moments in every match and listing historic names and incidents dragging them back to the fore like some old woman,

It was a great defensive performance, and yes results are what matter. A team that has been put together with hundreds of millions spent on it, should be able to offer a bit more attacking threat though, surely?

Yeah I think a 1-1 is a nice away score but I think Chelsea didn't want to risk too much with them hitting on the counter.
Chelsea clearly fancy it at home so lets see what they are made of. Athletico could be even more dangerous on the counter so we may see another defensive performance where they try and get a 1-0 imo.

Well I will agree when Jose has picked his striker. He clearly isn't happy with the ones he has and is going for a specific target. He wont settle for buying cack because its available, he will be going for who he wants or none.
If Chelsea had a Suarez for example they would carry a greater threat but they haven't got anything close to a top quality striker.

Rameries actions was last Saturday ? People are happy to bring up Suarez actions last season ?
Don't you think it's a bit hypocritical to constantly bring up Suarez whilst ignoring the actions of others
As for this "every match" - it's rubbish and you know it is - there has been the dive the other week against City and the incident against Norwich ( remembering that Fer's studs went down his shin )
I will admit Suarez does things on the pitch that embarrass himself and the club and there is no excuse for it and he should have been punished for the dive
Suarez is open season but yet why don't I see one word from yourself or any Chelsea fan criticising the actions of Rameires - blatent forearm into someone's face off the ball or Luiz antics last night or even your coach or when Maureen stormed onto the pitch or his words to the press or the actions of his coach towards the ref !! Nope whenever those incidents are questioned it's either excused or Suarez is brought up or someone else is brought.
But it's been like that for about 9 years now - and it's filtered down from the attitude of the manager then and the same manager right now.
When criticising he actions of any player or any club - Chelsea fans don't have to look far for their own examples right now and in the past

Hey, come on guys, simmer.
I know Phil can be annoying at times, as I'm sure we all can, but he's just doing what we all do .......................... and that's defend our team to the hilt.
I do it, Phil does it, you do it ................ we all do it, so let5's just try and get along a bit better :thup:.

P.S. Phil, what's your Fantasy Race to Dubai team called?
See what I mean?

Certainly need to find a way to clamp down on a lot of incidents - no idea what needs to be done but something certainly needs to change
And yes all teams have people that embarress the club and people that need to clean up their act
Just going a bit miffed when it appears ok to highlight one player

Luiz has occasional abberations in an otherwise very classy way of playing.
Suarez (and Drogba, but slightly less so imo) seems to have falling over as part of his natural style!
I would love to see simulation cut out of the game, but don't expect it to happen any time soon. Is the Scottish 'compliance panel' working? The EPL Clubs (and Refs) rejected the idea when Dyke proposed it!
There's a difference between criticising the 'moment' and dragging any past up whilst exaggerating those actions also, I have a wife at home who is excellent in doing that, maybe Phil is really Phillippa, come to think of, he/she insists on having the last word in EVERY topic he/she gets involved in, hmm, I'm beginning to believe Liverpoolphillipa is actually a wifey on here in disguise :rofl:

So anytime you mention anything in regards Suarez that has happened in the past we can remember this post
Like I said - Rameires was Saturday and it's conveniently ignored.
You threw your teddies out in regards a post I made and no resort to cheap jibes ( shall I be expecting a PM or even a visit ) - a few home truths about your club in reply and they get again conveniently ignored
It's purely hypocritical but it's par of the norm these days
Money can buy lots of things - there is some things it can't buy
