Yes, we were lacking in most areas. Only started to play when 2nil down which isn't good when you've only scored in 4 games in the last 14 games in the league. History doesn't remember gallant losers.

CH only let's them play when the game is beyond them. Let's be offensive from the off rather than waiting for the opposition to score 1st before we show some guts

Schelotto.
That is it for me.
That is it for me.
What about if his squad is a painfully slow, Championship standard and lacks goal scorers?
No manager has that midas touch.

We just needed a midfielder and attacker showing the same energy. Too many seem to have off games at the same time
The only one I saw was my car accumulator knob.

Glad you're not the manager.
Lots of other threads to have a moan on I suspect.

I might agree with that if we were two goals down after, say, an hour of dogged but toothless defensive play, but today we got mugged in the first 6 minutes - unfortunate, but these things happen, especially against the sort of quality Chelsea have available to them; we weren't deliberately playing negatively and defensively for that first 6 minutes.
These things happen - WBA away, Bmuff equaliser, Hudd away. All part of the swings and roundabouts of doing a Boro.
That doesn't apply to today, we were losing before we had a chance to tell how offensive we'd be. And Chris didn't talk to them after the goals to make us attack, the players did it as they'd presumably been planning to.

Totally feel the same. I really hope that CH sticks with this formation and especially keeps Schelotto and Suttner in the wing back roles. Schelotto was clearly MOM today but I thought Suttner had another good game - his passing and crosses are far superior to Bong and it irks me when CH then leaves him out. Would have liked to have seen Baldock get a run out in that formation.
FA Cup aside next week, we’ve now got 4 cup finals coming up - please don’t revert back to the 4-4-2 Chris !

Watching CH he was urging them forwards whilst Conte was doing an impression of Magnus pike arms everywhere

Kayal looked extremely sharp when he came on
Looked good since returning from injury. Time for him and Propper to start?

A big positive for me and many others in East stand today was when our regular A hole left at half time. This so called “supporter” started off in the 4th minute with his usual loud mouthing along the lines of “Brighton you’re effing sh1t” and “you’re crap Brighton and going down”. His language, with young kids close by, was appalling - but in his view that’s not his problem because he’s entitled to say what he Effin likes and the kids should sit elsewhere if the parents don’t like it. What’s more if you’re female you shouldn’t even be at the game, you should “go back to the kitchen sink”. Someone finally challenged him, others joined in and he left - hooray! If you’re the A hole and you’re reading this - you’ll be very brave to come back!
I know that many NSC readers will be surprised that it’s so exciting in the East ...........

Being in La Paz and enjoying the incredible network of cable cars they are establishing in a severely hilly city; it really is their version of the Underground with colours for the ‘lines’, and link up stations. Costs 30p a ride and is great for tourists to admire the city and surrounds, and heavily used by locals. We even saw a bride and Dad taking the orange line to church!
Oh, and the time difference meant just got final score, spared the minute by minute agony.
