as for criticism of pogba, we should expect a bit more from the lad. soz. the criticism he gets is nowhere near the knee jerk if smalling gets turned by hazard once in a game. with the ball, we weren't very disciplined. apart from rashers's miss (should really have scored, but then costa should have had a hattrick as well as acting like a complete @#%&!), we gave the ball away by being careless and not committing any numbers to attack. when you are 1-0 down, keeping what you have makes little sense. I think subbing mkhitaryan was a mistake, because it gave us less of an outlet. we did not need six at the back. but then the team was set out very negatively to start with. even allowing for the players available, that team was just going to invite pressure. given the way chelsea play, I would have thought having someone in midfield to protect the back four/five was more sensible (don't tell me jones is a midfielder). but, once herrera was gone, how could pogba get forward? seriously? the couple of times we did have players push up, we gave away possession and they had men over when they broke. |

as it was, we gave ourselves enough of a chance to get a late goal. Unfortunately we couldn't but i dread to think what the score could've been if we hadn't had all of Smalling, Jones and Rojo there. |

The argument that the players around him aren't up to scratch is absolutely a valid one. It doesn't excuse his performance last night of course, this is more an argument about his long term viability. I'm frustrated as £#%&! by a lot of his performances this season but that hardly means I'm going to write the guy off. Fairly certain if he was in Chelsea's midfield with Kante and Matic behind him week in week out he'd be performing a lot better.... 140 (one hundred and four) games since the start of last season ffs |

He has shown regular glimpses of his talent for sure but all in all he has been very disappointing so far hasn't he. |
