What a poor poor performance! I can see goal difference being a factor at the end of the season & we should be putting a team like Swansea with 10 men to the sword! We can beat Liverpool at anfield & Everton can beat city at goodison park but we need to play like we actually want to win the league!

That's what u get with Mourinho as coach - one zeroes! When u need goals, rather bring on Mikel.

{Ed018's Note - well if Eto could've figured it out in from of goalie could've been 3-0}

Of course we need world class strikers but the chances ours had today were easy enough for our reserve players to finish! Let's hope we get our act together for the Liverpool game!

Hang on! Why is it Jose's fault when both Salah and Etoo should have buried Swansea? He went for it.

It was something like 25 shots 2 on target. Not entirely sure how you can blame Mourinho for the lack of ability to put the ball in the back of the net. Eto'o and Salah in particular missed absolute sitters. The sending off made the game harder for Chelsea in my opinion. Chelsea have shown already this season that they really struggle to break teams down who sit behind the ball and Swansea had no option but to do this after the sending off. Seems like the team have been stuck in 2nd gear the majority of the season especially in matches against the 'weaker' teams of the league.

No doubt they missed chances, but was Mikel brought on to convert those chances? They almost scored when he came on. I think Salah had a good game though.

I agree it's not down to mourinho, he picks the team, the tactics & makes substitutions! Etoo & salah just weren't up for it today! Credit to Ba again for delivering the goods when needed

I think the sending off definitely made it harder for us. In general our style of play is counter attacking, which is impossible when they have 10 men behind the ball. We might not score alot, but just think of it this way; we're 3rd in the scoring charts and our strikers have scored 10-15 out of them. Next season with 2 of Falcao/Cavani/Costa, we'll almost certainly have a chance at beating our own record of goals scored in a season.

The real question is why question Mourinho? He doesn't really ever let us down. We must trust him.

Why not question him? Our away form has been appalling! Surely the managere needs to take some blame? Why must Ramires be in the team? What if it was the 'Waiter'?

The waiter would never have got us a shot at the pl title. The waiter wouldn't have got us to the cl semi finals. So what I question is basics are you a proper Chelsea fan or do you just hate everything to do with our club?

Mikel as brought on because JM realised thaat even if our strikers had 100 opportunities they wouldn't score so he decided to close out the game and shut up shop. Why must Ramires be in the team? A) He's better than Mikel, B) Lampard can't play 2 games in a week, C) Luiz may be better in midfield than defence but his positional awareness is still slightly lacking due to only playing around 30 games as a CM. So what other choice does JM have? Play Oscar there? Then we have no attacking subs to bring on apart from goal-shy strikers.

What would you have done in JM's shoes? Who would you have played instead of Ramires? It's all well and fair to moan because we don't like the decisions he makes, but he fact is, he really doesn't have much choice.
