If the goalie comes charging out for a 50/50 ball, if he is too slow and clatters the attacker, that's a pen and a yellow/red card. End of story.
I'm not even sure why it's being debated. If a player is late on another outside the box, it's a free kick and usually a card all day long. It's the same in this situation, how can someone see it any other way? Cie said:
Why are the fans ironically chanting that? They've scored 3 goals against Leicester for fk sake.
Not watching the game but I'm guessing it's the Leicester fans singing that? Maybe they're bored of seeing them not lose?Loved Mourinho's comments on that! Saying that Chelsea have scored lots of goals, and maybe interesting football is a game with lots of posession but no goals
Yes. One more win and the league is ours. Today was never going to be easy, Leicester fighting for survival. This is how you win the league Slippy and Brenda.
Beat Crystal Palace, and Liverpool will give us a guard of honour
37 year old Drogba still got more goals than Balotelli Even John Terry has more goals
Our defence has contributed 18 goals and 15 assists so far this season.

As an Arsenal fan there is no doubt that Chelsea deserve to win the title, I think the 'boring boring Chelsea'chant was in direct reference to how you played on the day against us.
You went into the game with a 7 point lead and pretty much no chance of losing the title even if we had of beaten you. Why not play like you are champions and go for the win instead of playing for a draw? It generally the same game plan against the top teams, play not to lose rather than playing to win.

Last season we beat Arsenal, Citeh and Liverpool, who were the other 3 teams in the top 4, home and away. And we didn't win the league. A draw was all we needed against Arsenal so we set out to get one, although the 2 best chances of a goal during the game were ours and we were denied a deffo pen when Ospina clattered Oscar.You went into the game with a 7 point lead and pretty much no chance of losing the title even if we had of beaten you.

So it wasn't as negative performance as is being made out.

Gary Neville himself has said that the 'boring' label around Chelsea is nonsense. People remember the winners, I'd rather play boring and win the league, than 'exciting' and slip up short.
Mourinho does what he has to do to WIN. We can't thrash every side 4-1 or 5-0, its a tough and competitive league. We played attractive and slick football at the start of the season, been on top of the league since the start pretty much, and have only lost 2 league games all season so far.
