Jose Mourinho's Chelsea

Liverpool had no plan b yesterday. I was at the game and once they realised they weren't going to break us down with there usual game, they should just have kept the ball at the back as we wouldn't have pressed the game to them and lfc would've got a point. Kept chipping balls in that our defence lap up. Weren't prepared to go round the back. No plan b. Should be realised we wouldn't have played into there style like spurs arsenal or city.

Jose done what needed to be done.

Thing is these cretins will never be hounded out. There nit fans there vile as u previously said
 
Why didn't Liverpool sit back and play for a draw ? Would have put Chelsea out of contention for the title, and still meant if they won their last two games they would be champions. Chelsea may have been forced to attack more if they really did think they could win the league, and Liverpool could have played on the break.

Oh dear I am starting to think like Jose.:mad:

Apparently they prefer to play "attractive" football. Looked more like hit & hope to me. It never really looked like Rodgers tried to change his tactics.

I think the reason the likes of Pulis can play like that and people give him credit for it is because he is using, (without being disrespectful) a lot of average at best PL players. So he has to do the best he can and that is to keep it tight and organised and try to grab a goal.

When a manager of a team like CHelsea that is full of top class PL players and internationals then people expect them to do a bit more than just park a big blue bus and try to scrape a goal on the counter attack.

But, I can't fault him for it. He has got a slightly weakened team due to injuries and suspensions, but still went to Anfield and got 3 points. If he had gone there and tried to take the game to Liverpool he probably would have walked with nothing more than a good beating.

You're spot on Adey, pretty much what I was alluding to but wrote, tongue rather firmly in cheek. If I was a manager though and got 3 points for my team I'd take no criticism from the opponents over my game plan, it's their job to work out how to beat it. I bet you that BlueinMunich didn't do anything other than purr after a masterful win with a weakened team that exposed the potential champions lack of guile when needed!

Its not a challenge to find the worst - Liverbirdie wrote a very good post towards you which im guessing you are going to ignore post #155. All clubs have their element and all fans need to take responsibility of their actions - the sooner vile humans are removed from football stands the better.
 
If Chelsea hadn't fluked the first goal, forcing Liverpool to come out more, would it have been nil, nil?

I didn't watch the game, but often this is the case with defensively set up teams.

Who knows maybe it might have forced Chelsea out a bit more which could have let Liverpool in but unfortunatly the mistake allowed them to sit and force us to find a way through.

That is what I did not understand. Liverpool only needed to draw. That would have put Chelsea out of the title race and more or less gaurantee second. Also that would leave Liverpool needing 2 wins to win the league, irrespective of what City do. Now Liverpool are left needing City to slip up, as they have a far better goal difference.

Bit of an error from Rogers IMO, sit back and take the 0-0, knowing hta Chelsea had to win if they where going ot stay in the race eventually they would have had to come out and attack.

Certainly BR could and prob should have changed a few things and they prob just didn't slow down and think for a min but I can't complain too much tbh

This time last year I wasn't feeling very hopefully - was hoping for a decent season and maybe get into Europa Lge and make some strides forward but this year has been immense - regardless of the result we are still sat top with a couple games to go so nothing is over yet - even if finish second the season is a massive success

To go from 7th to 2nd is something that I'll celebrate and be proud off and use it hopefully as a stepping stone to further success

BR is doing an amazing job and this is all a learning curve for him - and there he is sat above multi million pound squads and far more experienced managers.

The default position of so called football fans these days - don't apologise or try to explain your actions, just bring up another example of the accuser doing the same thing and everything is ok. No apologies, no reasoning, silence is as good as condoning it. When other fans start shouting down these filthy songs they start to die. You had a chance pinseeker and didn't take it. Don't justify evil deeds with other evil deeds. Lots of Chelsea fans on here on Sunday night, obviously the likes of this isn't condoned.Classless.
