Ramires has just walked around in a circle all night and when he gets the ball it's useless.
Sums up our night sadly.
I said that a couple of pages ago and got jumped on. Running everywhere really fast isn't any substitute for constantly giving the ball away.Sums up our night sadly.
Still, on the bright side, we've only got the league to worry about now. Amongst others, Southampton, Manure and Liverpool at home, and the Arse away. Hmmm.
Winning the league & league cup will still be looked on as a good season, but really last night you should have done better & Jose should shoulder the blame for the way you failed to qualify & the way you're players behaved on the field.
I can see Chelsea buying a big name striker in the summer.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/31845015 - I do think he is a good player but not on the same level as Suarez - what do you guys think?
Too niggly and looking to get involved on the field - what a nasty team you can be.
It's almost as though the football is secondary to the posturing and the one-upmanship. Pathetic. I saw your highlights last night, ten watched Bayern demolish Shaktar - chalk and cheese. Bayern scored and just went looking for more goals, instead of the usual Maureen get a goal in front and then defend like pussies approach.
You got what you deserved ie fk all.

They say the Premier League is the best in the world. bks. Our teams struggle in Europe against the best sides as can be witnessed this season. Chelsea were a disgrace last night and deserved to go out. Ibrahimovic should never have been sent off. A very poor decision from the referee who did to be honest have a poor game but it was not helped by Chelsea players surrounding the ref to get him sent off. The PL maybe entertaining but the top teams from it will always be found out by the better European teams.

It is the best in theleague because any team can be beaten on any given day,Bayern don't get beaten much. Have no competitors in their league
Real Madrid don't get beaten much and have only Barcelona as their direct rivals in their league. Maybe Atletico but not right now.
Italy has a poor league.
The premier league. Not one team dominates every game. We have Chelsea City Arsenal United Liverpool Tottenham who can beat eachother on any given day.
We have the likes of Burnley, Leicester, Palace who could go to the teams above and give them a good game.
That's why it is classed as the best league in the sport. For the entertainment, not for the competitors on the world stage.
And because our league is so competitive, every game is a battle. We're 5 points clear with a game in hand and we've had only one game all season, Swansea away, where we could rest some players, and then only in the 2nd half.
Real Madrid, Barcelona, Munich, PSG etc go into about 75% of their games able to rotate and rest their stars, because the opposition aren't good enough to beat their B team.
We don't have that here. Burnley drew at our place, Stoke won at Citeh etc. Leicester are rock bottom and they're a good side, who give everyone a tough game.

But why does the EPL have by far the largest worldwide viewing figures of any league with a TV finance deal to match? Just because the very top teams from England are not as good as the very top teams from Spain or Germany doesn't mean the league as a whole is worse.Gassing Station | Football | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
