We never going to win either the title or the CL without effectively strikers apart from half (Etoo). The reason we have done so well I purely down to Jose. With two world class strikers next season I expect us to go all the way. But isn't this what Jose has been saying all along and nobody believes him?

I laugh, we beat liverpool, city home and away, Arsenal 6, spurs, a better team in southampton, but we can't beat palace and Villa. I'm sorry nut this just shows mou. Is just a big game manager. Its laughable how under 30 mins. I knew we weren't taking three points almost like villa, déjà vu yeah guys? Well we and Arsenal are in a fight for third place let's hope we don't screw that one up. City and liverpool 2 horse race. We are done.

Why blame Jose for this he made the right subs at the right times the club is missing a forward who actually makes runs its the difference in the smaller games having that talisman to finish the odd chance off that being said a few of the players were shocking today Matic was awful Torres was just Torres. I know we all started to hope for the title but the team just inst ready yet we need the strikers to get the most out of the flair players next year will be the year and has for out the race even if pool win they still have to play us we beat them we go above them again. be a bit more upbeat dude top four and quarters of The CL is decent next year Chelsea will be much more lethal in front of goal don't despair our time is nigh!

{Ed018's Note - all good points, but was it necessary to start with 3 center mids out there.}

I agree complacency, however, I want mourinho to stay for ten yrs plus whatever the results, its a poor league where all teams are the same, man u want moyes out though moyes says he has a poor team. Strong prem or weak? I don't know, let's see if we win champons league, one thing is for sure, we all think jose can win us matches on his own, he cant, we need to play every game like our cup final, not just the big teams

I think it's obvious that we are not good enough to win the premiership this year. If we win at anfield, then maybe we can get second place. We are a work in progress, so I am not going to criticise anybody.

Would be awful if liverpool win it though, their fans are the worst winners and losers

Lampsy mate I do agree that top 4 and champions league quarter finals ain't bad, but it's'just frustrating how we've done what other teams haven't beat southampton home and away, beat city home and away, but then we drop 6 points against the lower teams. Like the lads above me state " a work in progress and I agree but u can't beat the big boys and then drop 6 in 9 against two teams in the bottom eight, Its ridiculous simple as that.

P.S. Not blaming Mou. Not at all think he has done great, all i'm saying is that if we were facing the top dogs every week end we win the league that's impossible so we should step up and play every game like a cup final not just the big boys.

How is it that every single player looked slow and uninterested today? Hazard was isolated and it was Matic's first bad game so far. Torres had a Torres like game. Granted he had NO service. Our full backs got run out of the park. Very ugly preformance today. I remain optimistic but golly dear me. I love this club to the death but they frustrate me, and probably all of us. Rooting for Arsenal and Spurs!

PSG game next week large part of reason for our performance. And of course we do not have reliable strikers.

Team for palace

Cech
Azpilicueta terry Cahill cole
Luiz Matic
Salah schurrle hazard
Torres

Cole needs a run and against a team that won't attack as much, he needs to play IMO

{Ed002's Note - Cole is still injured.}
