S-Clarke

Sometimes you need to think about self-preservation in games like these, and he's not looking like a good traveller at the mo. After the weekend he's been rightfully dropped anyway.

oh for christ sake, a right old waste of a chance there.

Our corners have been **** toniught, one thing you really need to get right at the big sides. Free kick in a good place though...these are the chances we need to take.

We're in the premier league, so he's obviously done a lot right on the transfer front.

Davis has been pretty hopeless tonight though, it has to be said.

Too much is being read into this QPR game, they had a lot of lives in that game and used them up. Chelsea were tosh, and they just defended well and scored with their only shot. It can happen, it doesn't mean it'll happen again.

It's chelsea though, so there will look like there's a gulf between us at times. There's not much we can do about that is there? Pointless analyzing this game. Doesn't hurt us.

I don't think we've looked out of our depth at all, that's just a knee-jerk over reaction. For the majority of that half we've looked composed, kept the ball well, but have lacked real threat. Chelsea have sniffed our weakness and are getting in behind Jos on most occasions. He's not been great.

Was alaways going to be a goal there, we were being takeen apart down the inside right - time and time again. And as we keep showing, we concede goals at such **** times!!!

Great read by Boruc

Is he? or is that just a slight over reaction?

Cance, big chance. Good play.

We're playing Chelsea.

Fantastic football.

Chelsea are happy for us to keep the ball where we have it, as we're causing no problems. We're not doing a great deal with it though. All dies as soon as it gets to the final third.

Is this the same fella who was on loan at brum a few seasons ago? Looked very handy then.

Sorry if you've already been asked this, but do you know much about this fella? I know the grand total of zilch about him, but he sounds a pretty solid signing to say the least - given the clubs that were after him.

I was pretty certain he'd signed once I saw the sticky, obviously not then. Unless one of the mods is an ITK.....

At 3.5m this guy is a snip, really. Let's go and get Astori as well...

We got Jay Rodriguez instead. It was always a case of one or the other. I think Jay was always our number 1 choice.

Well, the usual suspects try to derail this thread with their continuous drivel. For what it's worth, I'm also encouraged by how this team has grown from the start of the year. The start was always going to be tough, what with our start, but It was a lot tougher than most anticipated - even our squad and management. We've recovered though and are turning into a pretty competitive PL team. I still hold the belief that the 2nd half will be a lot more enjoyable than people anticipate at this moment in time. This team is only going to get better.

Wow, ok.

Don't give him the time of day Chez, the guy is a loon.

I was actually talking about the idiot poster in this thread, but yeah it also counts towards Boruc as well. He's a bit different, but that's GK's for you!
