Terry barely celebrating

 

[Tucker]

Lol Terry looked gutted then.

 

[mark87]

Yea villa!!

 

[karennina]

This would make our point a good one.

 

[hughy]

There are so many reasons why I want Villa to win this.

Not going to happen is it?

 

[Oscar22]

Would be lovely, but I really can’t see Villa holding out.

 

[ShaunL84]

If we don't make the CL, I really hope Chelsea miss out.

They still have to play City and Liverpool so they really need to turn this around.

 

[JayB]

Villa really asking for trouble here. They’ve got no out ball and can’t hold a spell of possession to save their lives. With the strength of Chelsea’s bench I can’t see Villa holding out if it carries on like this.

Never underestimate the hunger and desire of a team fighting for their lives.

 

[Oscar22]

Was always coming. Chelsea will go on to get the three points here.

 

[JCRD]

Lampard has got to take credit there - changed things

I wish we could change things and go for it...

 

[yankspurs]

thanks for showing up 2nd half villa

 

[chrissivad]

And there it is...

 

[thecook]

It's that winning mentality comign through that we so sorely lack

 

[karennina]

Second goal was very good, but worth noting they had to be on the counterattack before they were able to cut though them like that.

What?

Not gonna lie it's not even that I simply wish we'd play like Chelsea, I just wish we'd approach games like them. There's no reason why we can't dominate play against teams like this and still look solid in doing so.

With the way we approached this same fixture we made ourselves look like we were actually on Villa's level.

Every game we basically let the opposition pass it around and attack us at will, like it's a training match. We have decent players, they just need good coaching.

I agree but let's wait to see when we play these teams with a stronger squad.

Mourinho's Chelsea approached games with more attacking intent against the average to poor teams. It's the bigger games in which he'd be more defensive.

We should at least give him the chance to show that with us. If we have good conditions and we are sitting back holding on to a lead against Norwich then I'll be right on that criticism train.
