I’m highlighting these two positives from our win over West Ham on Saturday night time as a result of these are two issues I’ve desperately been asking for and desirous to see for time now. So after I see them occur, it’s so vital to hone in on them and discuss them.
The 2 takeaways I’m speaking about is the response of the entire Chelsea group when muscle-bound indignant scrubs began attempting to wrestle, struggle, and choke our gamers. The second is Liam Rosenior’s reactions to asking concerning the followers booing and being indignant at half time. I picked up on these within the match report, however I needed to talk about them a bit extra as a result of every part that went on final night time, these are my two largest constructive takeaways from it.
Let’s begin with Rosenior’s reactions. He’s a likeable character for certain. I’ve bought actually aggravated with a few of our current head coaches for the way they’ve reacted and the issues they’ve stated in public, particularly once they snap again and begin arguing with the followers. I’ve by no means understood that. Why do it? It is going to get you nowhere.
Rosenior, as an alternative of snapping again on the followers for getting indignant at half time yesterday, put himself in our sneakers and understood the anger. This was an ideal response. No snap again, no excuses, no attempting in charge anybody or the rest, simply taking accountability and understanding the followers.
The subsequent factor was how the gamers reacted to being bodily assaulted by a bunch of morons with anger points. Adama Traore runs quick and has arms greater than his head, however this knobhead ought to have been despatched off yesterday in addition to his angrier group mate, Jean-Clair Todibo, who ought to flip to MMA relatively than soccer. And Traore needs to be an oily Males’s Well being mannequin relatively than a footballer.
However anyway, huge honest play to Joao Pedro, Robert Sanchez, Wesley Fofana, and the remainder of the Chelsea gamers for working in to assist Marc Cucurella, who bought wrestled to the bottom by an enormous child oiled arm, after which Pedro, who bought street-assaulted himself.
And sure, we all know we’ll get a ‘failure to manage your gamers’ cost from the FA however who cares? What had been we going to do, simply allow them to idiots throw us round like rag dolls? Nah, LOVE to see this.
And West Ham, it is advisable to do one thing together with your indignant animals. The look of their eyes, they had been SO indignant… Clear points there lads. Kind it out.
