Its incredibly abject. I don't understand it. Why is Torres not playing? Eto'o does look livelier but half of them (Hazard, Rami, Mikel) haven't come back from summer holidays.
Mikel is just sank. Seriously, he just adds nothing. Why not put Essien in there? I have no idea if he'd be worse but I doubt thats possible.
The problem is the formation is shit. Jose was trying out 4-3-3 in the preseason friendlies. It has to happen even if it means sacrificing Oscar who has played well. Schurrle, Willian, KdB or Mata, whoever you fancy on the other wing to Hazard.
To be fair I think the Nitrocharge campaign is pretty good, even the slogan. They've carved out a niche for a line of boot that isn't the Predator or the F50, and that's not easy. #theengineNitrocharge your game?
Have a word with adidas marketing Arnie

Are Bayern really playing 4-1-4-1???
The thread is moving slowly. Is everyone losing interest in football?
Ramires is just shit at the moment and has been for a seasons time. He runs around like a clueless headless chicken, makes lots of mistakes when passing it around especially around the box and doesn't even get in the way of much defensively, this means all play through the middle gets destrotyed as the other CM is Mikel who is also anything but a creative mastermind, it's fine having one not so technical gifted in there but when both can't put some tempo into the match to save their lives the match starts playing like this.
Meanwhile Cahill and Terry is a disaster in the back, Cahill will keep backing until he's in his own goal and Terry is just too slow. Then when Hazard and Oscar can't create something by themselves out of nothing there is no real goal chances.
Thinking Eto'o is doing fairly well with the little he is being given, he has also tried to create a bit himself, but at this moment a big fucker like Lukaku to just cross the ball into would be good... If only Chelsea had such a player....ugh
Edit : and fuck the waiter.

Torres Eto'o
Cole Hazard Mata Lampard Ramires
Luiz Terry Isvanovic

At least Suso scored.

Hope we loan Mata in January and buy him during the summer. Mata strikes me as sort of player who won't ask for huge wages.

Terrible keeping. Chelsea do not deserve to win this match. Jose will clearly now feel vindicated.
