Did he actually appeal for the penalty, too?

Something about making them more memorable than a string of letters.

That was one of the most inept Chelsea performances I've seen in recent years. Incredibly lethargic, slow and entirely one dimensional when it comes to going forward. It's always the same thing when we tend to face sides who sit deep and get men behind the ball. The slow attacking play we offer just enables the opposition defence to set itself while we try to play this combination passing again around the box trying to walk the fucking ball in.

Credit to Palace though because they came out and did exactly what they needed to do. While still being able to create plenty of chances going forward themselves when busting out on the counter. Fully deserved result on their behalf.

I've always maintained we'll not win the league this year and this highlights why. We're very much a Hazard reliant side when in attack, and he had the cutting edge of a butter knife. Also Oscar is fast becoming the Brazilian Kalou. While the talent is clearly there, he's so frustrating and sloppy at times.

Shite result today, and Oscar's been frustrating for a while, but let's not start making claims like this.
On his day, Oscar is an absolutely brilliant footballer. Kalou never was.

I know, I know. It's a touch hasty, but he's been so frustrating for much of the season.
At least Kalou did score some crucial goals. Oscar on his day is brilliant, but all he seems to deliver the last few months has been a horrid first touch and inability to make a successful 5 yard pass. I know fatigue hasn't helped, given the amount of football he's played the last 2 years. I'm hoping that's the ultimate cause.

Definitely not disagreeing with you.
Would be good for him or one of the other creatives to step up, so the defenders would have to focus on someone other than Hazard for a change.

That's a must at some point. Someone else needs to take over games and not solely rely upon Hazard to do it.
Slowing the ball down in attack doesn't help either. Just ends up congesting play further and makes creating chances more difficult than it needs to be.

Some top mind games by Mourinho this weekend. Lose on purpose to put all the pressure on Liverpool and Man City. Already working with Man City dropping points yesterday.

Fulham 0-1 Everton just after HT, Fulham been playing well though apparently.

Good to see Hughes doing a good job with Stoke. A group of solid pro's suits with no big time Charlie's suits him down to the ground and he's got the best out of said groups at Rovers, Fulham and now Stoke.

Annoyed with how shit we played yesterday, I've been blaming our poor performances on the fact we've got nothing to play for, but neither have Southampton and they completely outclassed us. From start to finish.

Too many average players and a completely average manager = completely boring and average midtable obscurity.

Squad needs a lot of work.

I think yesterday really shows up Pardew's limitations. Seems to have absolutely no game plan. Southamton are mudering our lack of pace at the back with simple long balls in behind. Let's do absolutely nothing. And take HBA off.

I really fucking hate his man management style. I think he already has his subs planned before the game and is determined to use them in that order. What's the point in HBA when you clearly have no faith in him? See also Obertan/Marveaux/Sammy/Ferguson/Gouffran/Dummett/Haidara.

I'm guessing until Remy is fit, we'll continue to see LdJ and HBA rotating with the starting one hauled off as first sub if it isn't working.

After the phone call, Sherwood doesn't seems to give a fuck. Another Spurs manager victim of Liverpool?

Can't say I've anything against Spurs but Sherwood comes across as such an arse it's pretty funny watching things falling apart around the halfwit. Think he should have stuck to setting the cones out on the training field...

Twitter rumours (yeah, I know) are suggesting Sherwood has had a bust up with the players and has been sacked.

Could see that coming, after what he has said about them the last few weeks - as I was watching today I was thinking it's only gonna be more of the same and that it would eventually lead to him quitting or getting sacked

The rumour I saw is that he punched a player in the face, which is as good a justification for dismissal as you can get. Assuming its happened, of course.
