Not really, just going by the posts on here...

A little better than Willian going forward.

Not as dedicated to the defensive side as Willian.

Sometimes really good, sometimes really bad.

All those things apply to Andre as well.

I'd say quite a bit better.

Willian hasn't always been that defensive. I think it's pretty unfair to say Cuadrado couldn't improve defensively under Mourinho.

At the end of the day, Willian has really become a Chelsea favorite and rightfully so. His motor is unreal. It will be interesting to see what Mourinho has planned for Cuadrado. It won't be a bad thing to have a guy that can give Willian a rest. Schurrle has fallen on the same fate as Mata. He doesn't play defense and Mou isn't ever going to favor a guy that can't defend.

I'll take the result though. Maintain our 5 pts lead over City without having Fab or Diego for the game. Would have liked 3, but this will do.

Really liking Zouma, he looks way more on top of things than Cahill has lately.

Zouma is going to be a rock in our backline for a long time. He is just great.

Damnit we have to figure out how to lock shite down when we get ahead. We have pissed away so many points from winning positions this season. Jose's old Chelsea teams NEVER let that happen.

Goal today had little to do with tactics. Courtois misplayed the ball. Other than that, neither team created many clear cut chances. Any other day, they don't score with our set up.

I didn't blame the tactics I'm just saying somehow someway we have to stop letting it happen. We should have the league basically wrapped up by now.

Yesterday wasn't as bad in comparison as ManU's 94th min goal + Man City Lampard scoring with 10.

Those four extra points would be huge right now.

In comparison no but in addition to those it's not less frustrating.

To be up at home and concede a min. from halftime and 2 min. after taking the lead on such a preventable goal still stings.

The old Ramires was back yesterday. In short, he is a liability. What I saw was very poor. He played with the ball after he dropped to become the last defender in the center of the pitch(why that spot who knows), when he almost lost it (with his "touch oh a rapist' skill.set) for what would have been an easy attempt for City. After his shot, he totally stopped.playing to.beg for handling, City countered route onestyle.and almost scored. He let his man go on the counter, who, by chance, also.scored. Lastly, with City pounding on our goal at the death, his arse was walking to assist in OUR 18. When he is bad, he is piss poor. yesterday was that kind of day for him. Thankfully it didn't cost us. Que the, yes, but he runs a lot crowd. Usually as wasted effort do to stupidity. That long term deal he signed is a killer right now.

Supposedly Schürrle deal is not done yet. Snag on the Chelsea side agreeing to a deal.

I read the exact same thing about the Cuadrado deal. However, both were at The Bridge yesterday, so take that fwiw.
