MotM Poll: Chelsea 1-1 Everton

By: Jack | December 4th, 2010

Dejection.

It’s becoming more and more difficult to discuss these recent displays. Futile doesn’t even begin to describe it.

I think it is safe to say we’ve drifted away from suffering just a blip in form. Now, it would seem, we’ve entered a good ol’ fashioned rut. The question is: Can, and how do we, pull ourselves out of it?

The desire – which Carlo so vehemently discussed in the lead-up to today’s match – was again absent. Only a second-half retreat, despite are only goal coming courtesy of a penalty. Nothing like inviting pressure when you’re suffering from a lack of confidence. The leveler, of course, arrived.

There were seven minutes of added time, an announcement which, you would expect, would elicit a response of verve and bounce from pretty much every club in the top tier. Not us. We withered, and ended up having to pretty much hold on for a point. Shocking.

What’s wrong? I don’t know. How do we fix it? No clue.

All we can do at the moment is remain behind the club. A look are our upcoming run of games suggests the boys will need every bit of support we can give them. KTBFFH

« Rant Box: Chelsea v. Everton | Home | ChelseaThe players lack inspiration, motivation...and I fault Ancelotti for that partially.
If by January, we are more than 6 points behind the leaders, and we are not winning... then Ancelotti must step down, to allow for a new coach who can fire up these players.
But I wonder if that authoritarian, inspiring coach is out there: Hiddink is only temporary and already coaching Turkey's national team.
Ancelotti has this calm, quiet and passive demeanor and at this moment he is not right for the players. The players are not playing with a sense of purpose and urgency.
For as long as Ancelotti maintain his passive, calm demeanor...I doubt if that could change.
