Bolton 1-5 Chelsea

[1andonly1derer]

Robbo spent more time slating everyone else in a white shirt than actually defending.

He is an angry twat isn't he?

[Sluffy]

Think I'd be moaning too if I had to play behind the non tackling back Petrov in front of me game after game.

Robinson may well be a limited player but he is getting crucified on the pitch each week simply because no one else in the team defends in front of him.

Ashley Cole would look crap if he had to play the opposition each week on his own.

It is on obvious problem that every team exploits - Coyle needs to do something about it - but he doesn't and for the life of me I can't understand why?

It was obvious to everyone where the problems were yesterday, yet it took us going 4-0 behind for us to even consider addressing it?

Petrov is very hit and miss. As I said earlier he can't defend to save his life, but if he does come back to help, people are on his back for him to get forward.

Lose - lose.

[Le God]

Why be abusive towards him when others deserve it more?

Fúcking puff.

You deserve that you abusive bastard.

It's irrational; it's like a disease i have to abuse knight.

Like Tourette's?

[Le God]

Like Tourette's?

pretty much. I see knight i get angry.

[Jamster26]

This isn't Petrov's fault; it's Coyle's, in my opinion. Petrov has never been one to track back and help the full back, so why Coyle thinks he is suddenly going to now; I do not know.

Coyle should have either:

Dropped Petrov and played someone else there, who is abit more defensive minded.

Or kept Petrov on the wing but replaced either Gardner or Pratley, for Muamba. The, Muamba or Reo Coker could have been the one to tuck in and help Robinson when needed.

[DaveBWFC]

Petrov is very hit and miss.

He's more often than not miss.

He cannot start against Wigan imo.

Lose - lose.

Then Coyle needs to either give Petrov a free role and play with just Ngog up front - with four across the middle - Gardner, NRC, Muamba and Eagles - as it stands for now - God, doesn't that look shocking but Gardner is the only natural left sided player we have, we need NRC and Muamba to shore up in front of our brittle defence and Eagles is probably the only natural right sided player we have (with some pace).

OR, Coyle has to bin Petrov as being too much of a luxury for us right now.

What he can't do is shut his eyes, stick is fingers in his ears and stop screaming to himself it will work, it will work - because Petrov defending just does not happen.

Seems so simple to me?


(Edit - Jam beat me to the reply).

Sluffy's photo is a revelation. At first I thought NRC & Robbo were tackling each other which is bad enough but looking closer it sems NRC is trying to grope his cock with Robbo helping him find it & Zat Knight's practising his ballroom dancing. If players are spending matches trying to find opportunities to fondle each other or get on Strictly we've no chance.

[Le God]

At least when Knight came on he was vocal, he was attempting a bit of a rallying cry.

fell on deaf ears but at least he gave it a shot.

Precisley.

We need them all to stand up and be counted against the pie eaters, it's a big 90 minutes that one.

[bwfcbob123]

but Gardner is the only natural left sided player we have

We have Kakuta, I would rather have Ricky at LB, Robinson is just pure shíte, he doesn't tackle, just holds off people.

[Natasha Whittam]

If Gardner doesn't start at left-back at Wigan I will get up and leave.

[Big_Sharps]

If Gardner doesn't start at left-back at Wigan I will get up and leave.

I look forward to that Nick, can you video record that for us all to see.

[aarons2009]

Ashley Cole would look crap if he had to play the opposition each week on his own.

If he had to do the same job as what Robbo was doing on Sunday I put money on Cole doing a much better job.

Robbo must know by now Petrov isn't the best at tracking back but he will kept wandering up field letting Sturridge get in behind him rather than staying infront of Sturridge all the time.

Gardener is a must at left back at the moment, especially against wigan who will target robbo by putting Rodiellga on the right.

Rodallega is out injured for quite a while,nevertheless Gardner should still be in at LB and with the pie-eaters without there only decent player it is a must 3 pts.
