Okay so here goes put my tin hat on

First half we are very good but absolutely lack
Any killer instinct to score and make life difficult for Chelsea.

We have players on our bench who are better than the starters - Foster is a much better option than Anthony who I’m afraid had passive sideways itus.

The three midfielders centrally are too alike

Cullen had a poor game today played lots of balls blind around corners today and got caught in possession too much ( probably leggy from internationals )

Foster should start and so should Hannibal for me ( if not banned now ).
Parker’s job is to manage the lad and keep him on the straight and narrow - he’s a v good footballer doesn’t panic on the ball has time and also the gumption to drag players around and move into spaces.

We play all our football in front of the oppositions back 4 ( it’s too easy for them ) foster runs the channels and pulls centre backs and full backs out of position hence he should start.

Lastly I don’t know what Parker puts in the tea at half time but whatever it is he needs to change it ( whatever it is it’s negative ).

I still say todays game and Arsenal etc were free hits where we could have had a real go yes we may have lost 5-2 but we lost anyway as everyone expected.

I still say we set up in these games not to lose them but not to win them either and he can say he’s happy with performance and results all he wants - I dont believe he’s setting up
To win in most games - he’s hoping we get something but reality is he’s in charge and performance is his mantle.

We tried today and I’m fine if not good enough
But what I think is that true. Are we really trying to stretch them and have a go - ask yourself if we had a meaningful shot at there keeper ? I think we have players capable of scoring / shooting but it’s stifled by the manager.
