    Not on an individual basis he doesn't. But he tells the defenders to play out from the back. He must recognise they are unable to do it after the 1st fck up. Or maybe after the 2nd one. Or even after the 3rd. Or after the 25th since last autumn.

    It's unforgivable.

    Plenty of time and space, individual error.

    And?

    That shows a defender make a balls of it trying to play out from the back under instruction from his manager.

    We're poles apart on this anyway, I'll leave it here.

    Thing is Chelsea haven't even made their goals tonight , everyone’s been gifted albeit good finishing .
    But if the goals had been scored on chances made it would still be nil nil cos we ain’t scoring unless an own goal .

    That second half summed it all up

    Shocking and clueless both on the field and off it......
    It's going to be a long cold autumn never mind winter....
    How can you defend when theres enough room to get 3 buses length ways between the central defenders at times....
    The amount of space at times between the defence absolutely shocking....
    I lost count of the e amount of times Chelsea took out 3 players with a pivotal flick and got a break away ...
    We got our backsides kicked big and proper....tonight not only did it expose our weaknesses but it showed up how weak our game plan is too...and the fact theres no plan B....
    Yes first half we played some neat triangles some nice short passes but once again it exposed our short comings....Chelsea whilst premier league and were expected to win showed everybody else who cares to watch just how poor we are both in the final 3rd but also in midfield and defence when it comes to tactics......
    I for one dont expect much change in the league....
    Sorry to say but tonight we were out of our depth never mind comfort zone.......both on and off the field...whilst I like GS...and except hes trying to make a silk purse out of a pigs ear..with players he has at his disposal...he needs to realise tip tappy football doesnt work when the players aren't good enough ....

    He wants to think himself lucky Chelsea hadnt got their shooting boots on....otherwise a club record of goals against could have happened tonight....

    Tonight ladies and gentlemen as harsh as it is...
    We are just not good enough ...
    Roll on Saturday
