Leicester v Chelsea

[johnnytodd]

fook off with that clap clap shite

 

[SALTIRE]

Mourinho would appreciate the time wasting from Vardy and the Leicester fans as his team's are masters of it.

For a change we agree. Chelsea have been fucking shocking. Top 4 chances slowly disappearing.

Anyone seen Blue_Bee?

 

[JimJams]

God we're shit.

 

[SALTIRE]

So refreshing this from Leicester, they probably have been the form team in the league since the last dozen games of last season. Don't fancy playing them at all in a few weeks.

 

[Stevencc]

Great stuff.

According to this, they're 4th for calendar year 2015. 63 points from 35 games.

 

[PDS]

Have Chelsea ever faced a crisis like this in their entire 12 year history?

 

[Art Morte]

Leicester just keep marching on. Congrats.

I wonder why Chelsea have to be 2-0 down to start playing like they did in the last 30 minutes.

 

[Nilsson]

Haha, probably not the best result for us looking at the table but Mourinho's downfall is so glorious it's impossible not to enjoy this result.

 

[Pagnell]

So Chelsea are back to having less points than games played. Fantastic.

HAND ON A FUCKING SEC MAHREZ LAD, IT'S 42 POINTS NOW?!!!

Just setting those goals higher and higher...

 

[thespus]

When are Chelsea officially out of the top four race then?

They were talking about it on talksport that they had a good chance!

The 4th placed team with the fewest points in the last three seasons was Manchester United with 70 points last season (and they're currently on pace for 68-69 this season). Chelsea need 55/66 remaining points to reach 70, which is 2.5 points per game - a 95 point season pace.

Tl;dr - Chelsea need to equal the best PPG pace over a season for the next 21 matches.

Watford are above Villa!

 

[Blitzballer]

Congrats Leicester btw

In a few months time it will be 'Title run? No, we are not safe until we have 84 points'.

Very good game and great win for Leicester !

Hazard has not shown any willing since that incident on opening day of season and clearly Chelsea players are in full support of him as Mourinho clearly did not care about the welfare on Hazard on opening day and Hazard got his own back tonight by leaving the pitch when Mourinho wanted him to stay on.

Big problems at Chelsea need sorting fast but as for Leicester keep it going as it is making this the best Premier League season in years.

 

[JimJams]

Mourinho actually not made an excuse for the loss and given us credit!
But it's clear he's not happy with specific players, sounds like possibly Matic? When he's talking about a midfielder that should be helping out Azp double up on Mahrez that doesn't do what he's been asked. Can't imagine he's on about a winger.

 

[Bartonyellow]

That goal from mahrez is sublime. Won't win goal of the season as its not a 40 yard screamer but for me it's going to take some beating. Wonderful individual skill. Take a bow son.

 

[BlueBee]

Anyone seen Blue_Bee?

No.

 

[Pyeman]

No way do Chelsea make the top four from here. Even if they sort their own issues out, the gap is just too big.

How low can they realistically finish before Mourinho loses his job?

 

[JimJams]

Now top 4 is gone they need to just avoid relegation. In the league there is absolutely nothing else to go for so maybe he needs to concentrate all his efforts on the Champions League. I don't think he'll get the sack.

I said that about Monk as well shortly after we played Swansea. - The last part, not the first bit, that would have just been silly!

 

[BlueBee]

Feel sorry for Mourinho tonight. Most of them players should never play for the football club again. Out of the main pool of players I'd keep; Courtois Begovic Azpilicueta Zouma Terry Loftus Cheek Willian

I honestly can't make a case for anyone else. Some are world class (Hazard..even Costa at times) but their attitude stinks.

I've for the first time tonight questioned whether we're bad enough to go down. I think we are.

 

[JimJams]

Change your av!
I'd definitely say Remy needs starting up front, Costa just isn't at the races at all. Or perhaps he is and that's why he's not at the actual football matches.
The Hazard injury thing seems a bit weird, just in the way Jose made a point that he decided he wasn't going to carry on. I think most of the time if a player says he can't go on you just accept it, but there's the undertone here that Hazard just doesn't want to play. Or at least that's the route the media can go with it!
Time to play Djib, Baba, Traore and get Mikel back in the fold.

 

[Pagnell]

Regardless of how much of a dick Mourinho is, if there is any truth to the rumours that some of the players just can't be bothered because of him, then they're a bunch of c***s who need a kick up the arse. Even setting aside the fact some of them are earning more money in a week than most people earn in a decade, they need to remove their collective heads from their pampered arseholes and realise they're playing for the fans and the club, not just some (admittedly) egotistical dick manager.

 

[BlueBee]

Hazard, like most young European players, has his eyes on Real Madrid. He won't be here next summer.

 

[JimJams]

While that's likely true, I don't see where he fits into their team. And they'll be managerless by the end of the season as well.

 

[Pagnell]

Hazard isn't good enough to be a first team starter at Real, despite their issues this season. He's been shit this season and hasn't pushed on at all. If it's because he can't be bothered putting the effort in, then he's shooting himself in the foot.
