I really worry watching us sometimes. With all the good play we get to the final 3rd and seem to run out of idea's, our stikers really need a good consistent run of goals. Also I hope mikel has Been watching matic because were seriously going to miss him in champions leagues, the bloke is an absolute rock, so impressed with him,

Dammit i'm dreading mikel starting for us in the champions league! I rather we play with ramires and lampard in the two cm roles. but I think it will be better to simply have luiz in that dm role (will do a much better job than mikel offensively and defensively) alongside ramires with terry and cahill at cb.

Again my post not posted ED, guess my time is up on here (in regards to posting). Great 4 and a half years on here though. Keep up the great work, you guys are doing a great job.

P.S. Great win today, good character shown at the dying moments.

This team has zero patience. We lump it forward when we have one center forward competing in the air against Distin and jagielka which they'll never win. Every person in blue has had a pop from 30 yards today because they're getting frustrated not breaking them down. The best attacking teams (barca and bayern) will move the ball until space opens up. Lampard really needs to go I'm not sure why he's going to finish the match on the pitch. Also I'll give him some breathing room because he hasn't been getting games but Andre schurrle has been poor. Oscar definitely needs a rest he's not close to the player he was early in the year. Etoo is far too slow on the ball. As everyone has said ivanovic is very solid at the back but most teams pack it in on us so I'd far rather have a full back who can apply some end product when we face most teams.

I think we need a performance from Oscar today. Mourinho seems to pick players on performances (Azpilicueta instead of Cole at LB for instance) therefore surely someone else such as Schurrle or Salah deserve a run as Oscar's performances of late have not been what we know he is capable of. I'm a massive fan of Oscar but we need more from him to create chances for the likes of Eto'o.

Yeah ever since mata left oscar seems to be slacking a bit (complacency now that he's hardly got competition in that cam role?)
