The month February has been the worst month in terms of results for Chelsea this season.A draw against Swansea,Manchester United and Birmingham and defeat to Everton and Napoli.
Chelsea have been playing poor football and the news of the rift between the coach and the players is also not helping.Chelsea fans are running out of patient and expecting this worst period to evaporate rather soon.
This results certaintly put an end to our premier league title hopes and our chances in the FA Cup and Champions League are hanging by a thread.The match against Napoli highlighted our defensive errors.Even the team picked up for the match by Andre was criticized as the veterans Lampard,Essien and Ashley Cole were on the bench.
We lost the match 3-1 because of some poor defending which could have been avoided and it could have been worse if Cech and Cole had not made those crucial saves.Its not that we were bad in attacking but we were unable to score.While leading 1-0 we got two really good chances to go 3-0 up.
First when Sturridge had the ball and Mata was free but Sturridge decided to go for the goal and the second one was when David Luiz got a free header.
At 1-1 also Ramires got a great chance to make it 2-1 but his shot was way above.If Chelsea would have taken those chances the result would have different.
The next match is against Bolton and the coach Andre Villa Boas would like to end February on a winning note and lead this Chelsea team to fight for the Champions league spot.
I hope Chelsea will win against Bolton and will carry the momentum to the further matches.
