That's true but it is our one key strength and Mourinho has gone slightly more attacking this year in these bigger games - we just haven't got anyone clinical enough to finish any chances
Yet. Sturridge is round the corner.
 
Oh definitely, was meant as much as praise for you as it is criticism for us. When Sturridge returns/your midfielders find their scoring boots, you're going to cause some serious havoc.

Well we used the excuse of needing squad depth last summer so hopefully we can improve our starting eleven this summer as we're not consistently good enough at the moment
 
Good game! Chelsea just edged it over the 120 mins. Some dodgy decisions favouring both sides. Pool just short of enough quality imo to make the difference.
 
cop on an eat some humble pie.
the manager brings on a striker like i suggested earlier albeit Balotelli first. then another oh look Lambert!

Really? haha
The manager brings on a striker in the 70th and 105th minutes, not at half time when we were the better side and was only level thanks to the opposition goalkeeper

what is your problem mate?

you criticise what i said earlier then repeat it afterwards -hypocrite

Agreed. We are really just lacking a clinical striker (shock)

Our high intensity pressing will always fade as the game goes on and you could see that during the extra time period

'Consistently' good enough... Meaning over the season we are not consistently good enough to compete with the likes of Chelsea or Man City. Please read the whole statement before coming out with ridiculous comments

Tonight we were good enough to win that game but didn't take our chances and faded as the game went on which is expected due to our style of play

Yeah defo need a STR or 2 as Lambert and Balo just don't suit how you guys play. And what do you think about CM look short there to.

Origi and a striker in the mould of Sturridge/Sterling would be very helpful (Berahino is not a bad choice but pricewise a no-go)

Once Gerrard leaves, CM is short. Henderson and Lucas look good there but the depth is not the best - Emre Can is better central midfielder but one should be bought

Forgot about Origi, will be good addition. Yeah like Berahino they would be 3 good STR options to have as starters and good depth on the bench. Pretty sure Markovic,Lallana,Can,Lovren will all improve next year. I would move Can into CM as well as buy another and add a CB and sign Manquilo coz I rate him.

i have not said anything ridiculous but you have and you seem unable to entertain anything but your own inflated opinion.

Agree with all of that - Manquillo is only 5 million as well so a good squad option to have. Like always, will be an important summer

Agree mate. Next season will be very competitive and wont just be between the 2. All top clubs will be spending a bit this summer especially us!
 
Out of interest, what do you guys feel of the decision to run 3 at the back in these games, especially with Hazard against you?

Its painful knowing United will be there next season - Makes it even more important this summer with City, Chelsea and United guaranteed to be competing

I dont think we had much of a choice considering we have looked very poor most the season not playing it - but I do agree, Hazard was a threat every minute of this tie
