as much as i think mourinho is an absolute cnut, chelsea did it well yesterday. they kept both the league leaders of england and spain goalless away from home in the same week. the tactics were spot on and they deserve credit for their defending.
however the time-wasting etc are extermely distasteful but that's for the ref to sort out. i thought ashley cole could have been sent off and azpilcueta (sp) was on shaky ground too. the refs performance was abysmal.
i still think we can do it.
i might add that the op from flames was a farking disgrace - to talk about stevie g in that way is just embarrassing. shame on you flames.

I agree about the time wasting, how many times did the ref point to his watch? But only booked someone for time wasting in the 88th minute. Awful Ref in that regard, but rest of it he got pretty much spot on.

I just don't understand why they don't stop the watch like they do in ALL other sports where time is being measured.
Stop it whenever the ball is out of play, and adjust the 45 minutes to maybe 40 per half instead.
If both teams want to play football it would be just the same as it is today, but if one team wants to disrupt the game - they won't get anything out of trying.

Chelsea did not beat West Ham though so it must have been masterful? On the day probably yes. The true masterclass is when you do it depending on the situation, ie, you change your tactics depending on the opposition, your available team, the result you want but most importantly you win trophies in the end.

But that's what big Sam did. He must be as good as Maureen then especially as he doesn't have the team or resources of Chelsea?

Maureen is a master tehniciasn, everyone else is lucky.

Maureen employs the same tactics as struggling teams who are desperate for a win to survive. The difference is he can spend whatever he wants to get the results where others can't. His man management abilities may be right up there but tactically he's no better than any one else.

Could have a BIG fck off clock for all to see too, and to watch it stop every time the ball goes out of play etc, yes, like that.

It doesn't take a mathematician to workout when a team bens the rules and get away with it. Refs need to be more ruthless with time wasting.
Read between my lines.
