Watching those videos above of Fulop... after each goal he just looks strangely conflicted
Normally a keeper will berate the defender for allowing a shot, or put his hands up for a mistake, or punch the floor and hang his head in shame
But Fulop just kind of puffs his cheeks and looks down and thinks deeply about what he is doing, or not doing...
Well, we have only ourselves to blame for not finishing in 3rd place. Arsenal gave us a golden chance to seal the 3rd place. If we had beaten Villa, we would have finished in 3rd. But our performance was just not good enough to beat Villa. In fact, our shyte away form this season has come back to spoil it for us.
Even against Fulham, don't think we did enough. After scoring in the 1st min, most teams would go on to score a few more goals. But we hardly looked like scoring until Defoe scored. I think if Fulham had scored before that, they could have go on to win. We always get complacent after getting into comfort zone. We just don't have the mentality to become a top 3 team.
It doesn't make any difference now. We have failed to finish in 3rd and confirm our CL place. Just can't see Chelsea losing to Bayern in the CL final. There is no point hoping on Bayern to do a miracle. We better start early for next season. It is going to be even tougher to finish in top 4 from now on. And Redknapp better treat the EL seriously next season.

What do you base that on? Pessimism? Or do you genuinely have a tactical reason?
To be fair, NOBODY had them down to get past Barca. I think people have seen how lucky they have been since Di Matteo has come in and have decided to stop writing them off. I would back Bayern probably 7 times out of 10, but in a one off, I think Chelsea will spawn their way to victory.

i call BS.
a commentator during the last game said that one more away win this year would have been our best return in the PL. We also have the 6th best away record in the league this year.
