inter earned their win... for the last half hour or so, chelsea had no fire at all in their game.. poorly losing possession, no closing down of inter midfield, no moment of brilliance from both drogba and anelka..

ballack and zhirkov had a terrible game.. i personally think ballack should not be considered for the next season... god chelsea missed essien...

Man the Inter Team should be nominated for the Oscars after that performance... I mean 4 rolls on the floor after someone flicks your boot - :)

 

Also the referees - :D [/sarcasm]

 

Mourinho did exactly what he set out to do... Defense first... And also that was an excellent performance from Sneijder... I think he created all of Inter's chances... We looked like scoring only towards the last 10min. of the first half... And substitution of Joe Cole for Ballack was the biggest mistake that Ancelotti committed... Till then the match was even... After that nobody tackled in the midfield and Inter dominated for the next 10min... And also the fact that Joe Cole was crap didn't help...

 

Oh well guess we will have to settle for only the Premier League and FA Cup this season :mellow:

Pretty lenient referee, considering all the grappling going on. Of course a key part of the plan was to keep beating up Drogba and wait for him to retaliate, he duly obliged.

 

doesnt he always? his attitude just, well sucks. sore loser.

 

the ref had two halves. first half nothing, second half books anyone around him.

 

still, was pretty fair.

Good to see Mourinho and Inter tasting success at Stamford Bridge. I do think Chelsea were unlucky to lose the game as they had 3 clear cut penalties in the 2 legs of this match. Great performance by Schneider. Also, couldn't understand why Drogba got a red card :)

FIXED :bigyellowgrin:

 

:giggle: I vouch for their comments. :P

 

Seriously it can still happen that Chelsea won't win anything this season , Villa are not an easy task to overcome , as far as league is concerned well its anyone's title really , any of the top 3 who doesn't slips will win it clean and square.

 

Don't get your hopes all high , the worst might be yet to come. :devil:

And substitution of Joe Cole for Ballack was the biggest mistake that Ancelotti committed...

i on the other hand was hoping for that substitution... joe cole didnt do anything, agreed... but at that time game was going past chelsea and they needed something, someone to create goal scoring chances.. .ballack just wasnt getting himself into the game... joe cole is someone whose considered for that, but his failures is a whole another issue..

if only someone like makelele was in the team, midlfield wouldnt have fluttered as much... its just sad to see chelsea getting knocked out year in year out.. n this time, out of top 16 :bigyellowgrin:

I know that Villa aren't easy opposition but I believe we have enough quality to beat them... And yes the league is very open and we are in excellent position there... I think we are in very good position to win both since there is only one major priority right now... Arsenal and Man Utd. have to worry about the Champions League... I don't think we would have been able to challenge on both the fronts with the no. of injuries and the slightly ageing squad... The most important thing now would be to allow Ancelotti to build his own squad in the next couple of seasons...

Ballack was atleast tackling and breaking up Inter's movements... Joe Cole did nothing... Absolute zilch... He has not been at his best for sometime now and it would have made more sense to bring on Kalou who can atleast run at defenders and had had a good first leg against Inter...

had ballack stayed in the game, he prolly would have seen a flashing red on his face... ref was distributing yellows as holiday cards! :bigyellowgrin:

but seriously, ancelloti should be given atleast another season with chelsea even if this season goes by without a trophy( :giggle: )

grant got chelsea to a champions league final and a second place finish and he was sacked if ancelotti fails to win d league and its a good chance he will i think hes gone

The less said about the referee the better... I bet its some kind of game like "Who gets to screw Chelsea this time?" :bigyellowgrin:

Grant never had experience managing a big European Club... Appointing him was a big mistake in the first place... Had he remained incharge I am sure that many players would have left in the summer... Ancelotti on the other hand is very experienced and has proven himself at the big stage... He deserves atleast 2-3 seasons at the helm...
