Sheffield Utd have done more attacking against Chelsea in 15mins than we've managed in last 3 matches.
I dont think its because they have better players than us.
If you dont attack and dont put the ball in the box you cannot win football matches. Its obvious.Just like in the game against us, they're remarkably effective in the box. They create space in dangerous positions really well
We played into their hands.I've said it so many times this season but Chelsea's defence is so weak I'm still angry that we didn't even try to put pressure on them in either game this season.
Thats whats annoying, we set up not to lose regardless of who we are playing.We played into their hands.
Second game I think we can cut ourselves a bit of slack though. We were without Kane, Alli and Son. We had Bergwijn and Lucas up top and had to pack midfield.

They're set up to win.
Movement from players actually getting into the box helps as well.What happens when you can cross a ball ?

They attack quickly. They dont wait for 50 passes in their own half so the opposition have 11 men behind the ball like we do.But they score with nearly every attack. It's quite remarkable actually. Same thing against us - they basically attacked our box 3 times and scored every time
Scary really.Yeah, I mention that in another thread
Not having 11 opposition players behind the ball also helps.Movement from players actually getting into the box helps as well.
Not all bad thencan kiss Europe goodbye
Chelsea at the back are as clueless as we are - who knew overlapping players wide to cross into the box with players moving around to try and get their head on a football creates chances and goals.Not having 11 opposition players behind the ball also helps.
