It was a different Evra this morning also...hopefully it continues. With he and Januzaj on the left and Valencia and Rafael on the right we could produce some exciting stuff particularly when we get Rooney and RVP back. However we have also seen some of those players at their lowest this season.

Still need a WC midfielder

He didn't defend again.

I knew he would get applauded.

Must be sold or pissed off. Terrible player.

Never really had to Swansea did not offer any real threat, but yes he one that must go but I doubt he will
He almost gave away a goal in the first 10 minutes by just leaving a player to drift in behind him, I don't remember who it was but he ended up having a horrible first touch.

Hazard is going to destroy him next week.

Disappointing loss, I said it in the match day thread but in another season we very well may have scored during the first 10 minutes when we smashed them. But as seems to happen almost weekly now we concede a goal and it's lights out.

One thing I noticed more than a few times is we never had anyone getting onto the end of our balls crossed across the face of goal, those are the types of things RVP does (and Chicharito, who scored from one and should have started). Ridiculous tackle late by Vidic and really unnecessary, leaves even more of a sour taste in my mouth.

Rafa looked good though, so too Januzaj again. Chicharito when he came on looked fantastic. Other than that there wasn't much to cheer about, although if we were even have decent at finishing we would have won this.

This season needs to die in a hole now.

Even if we did score we still would've lost , that's the feeling I got anyway. Chelsea were always going to put a few past us, only annoying thing was it was Eto'o, like seriously? 3?

Anyway, never expected anything but a loss in this game, squads just not good enough, plain and simple. Not making top 4 is going to hurt, but we're going to have to cop it as even a top 8 finish looks tough.

An early goal to us would have changed the game completely, instead we were forced to push which almost always leads to us conceding more. You know you're completely out of luck when Eto'o scores.
