I'm not that fussed by it. We got more points out of this run of fixtures than I thought we would get.

We were forced to play our third striker who is very much past his best for 90 minutes. Of course we were going to be more negative than usual.
Hasn't been the case all season though. Bit of salt.

Why can't you fans be as happy as De Gea to have gotten as close as you did for as long as you did.
He's yelling, "i'm staying!" in Spanish. thanks dave

i don't understand the gif. what part am i crying?
it has nothing to do with drogba. it has to do with naming matic and zouma in the midfield, sitting off and allowing possession, then countering. which is what chelsea have always done in the bigger games.
it works. it's boring, but it works.
salt? ha. i wish we could play like that. i wish we were boring and could win 1-0 more often than not. but don't live in denial that this isn't a common occurrence.

You come across as being very bitter. Maybe you aren't and its just the way you write or something, but it comes across as sour grapes.

Not yet, could score a hat trick at any moment. He got an assist

because i don't fall over praising absolutely everything?
it's how chelsea works in their big games. it's not pretty, it's not designed to be, but they win. if that's being bitter, then do with that what you will.

Don't know why people get upset about Chelsea playing negative. Ends justify the means, and the only people who have a right to demand more from the team are Chelsea supporters. I'm guessing not too many of them are complaining right now.

yes I have to agree on this. well said moomba...

absolutely. winning is winning.
but that also doesn't mean you can't complain, as a relative neutral, that a game is dull. especially when it's set up to be.
Oh shhh- it has a lot to do with Drogba as well. Besides:

1-0 at home, boring game against ten man.
Man City:
0-1 Stoke
1-0 United
1-0 Everton
1-0 Leceister
0-1 Burnley
0-1 Barcelona
Chelsea:
1-0 Liverpool
1-0 Everton
1-0 West Ham
1-0 QPR
1-0 Man united
Our last two games have been 1-0 wins, is that where you're getting it from? You are in more of these games than us. Costa didn't play against Everton, United, QPR- with Remy not being available in a lot of these as well. You want us to play an open fast paced game with old man Drogba?
Of course Chelsea are more defensive minded against teams with better offence.... duh?

You're not obliged to watch it either kizza. I know I wouldn't if I was a neutral and thought it to be negative & boring.
Fortunately I'm a fan and think it's as entertaining as all hell cos we're winning

Why the hell are you talking about Chelsea still, your team is playing- Jose hurt you bad.
Btw Ramos goal? Was offside- Ronaldo's assist looked like an illegal accident.

No doubt, most of these types of games are dull. Just don't expect too many Chelsea supporters to care (I didn't watch it until the last 10 minutes so didnt have to suffer)
Magma

yes, because i said that we had been entertaining and a joy to watch.

because it's football and i like watching football.
and you're perfectly entitled to. but i'm not going to get giddy over it.
Everyone has these boring games- Chelsea just has them against top opposition more often than not- but still score.
Liverpool have played in 12 1-0 games.
Arsenal have played in five.
United have played in six.
Other supporters are just upset that Chelsea have them against them (the top teams) and always seem to come out in top in them. Instead of 1-0 scrappy slugfests against bottom teams.

Remember being pissed off at the end of that game because we were in total control and then Pellegrini nearly threw it away by pushing for more goals. It really is the opposite of the point you are trying to make. Had 3 nailed on penalties not given that game as well.
