Chelsea vs Swansea.

So I jotted down my thoughts during the game, I doubt anybody would bother reading them but I thought i'd post it up.
First Half:
Halftime summary:
- Good play by Chelsea but a lack of creativity in the final third/cannot break down the 9 man wall
- Goals came from counter and sneaky chip over the line and a good run from Torres
- Torres sent off
- Swansea had alot more possesion after the sendoff but translated into no threat, will be interesting to see if any changes are made
- Torres seems like he is more rash in his tackles, getting yellows etc but I don't understand why. He doesn't need to make those sort of tackles especially that high up the pitch
Second Half:
Full time:
- Decent game, nice to get a few goals
- MOTM: Ramires, good play and well timed runs to take 2 goals. Was efficient in shutting down the oppositions play
- Negatives in a poor goal conceded and Torres out for 3 games but hopefully gives him more opportunity in CL and can return and start scoring again
First Half:
- Spoiler:
- - No real chances so far
- Holding possesion well
- Ramires scuffed only chance
- Mikel keeping possesion but slowing play
- Torres nobody to pass to top of the box
- Long ball gives possesion away
- No bodies in the box ramires cross
- Chip over the top goes out, poor turn over
- More slowing from Mikel, no insiveness, more bodies behind
- Torres forced to sneak a chip in
- Meireles forced to longshot with nothing else on
- Ramires backheel turnover, regained quickly
- Good closing down, Swansea can't get it out of their half, forced into mistakes
- Lack of opportunities being created
- Dwelling on the ball, more bodies back and nothing on
- Torres good run into box, slight clip but nothing on
- Ramires stole the balll, had a shot on target but easily saved
- Ivanovic longshot, waste and a poor turnover
- Swansea defending well, Chelsea not being allowed into the box
- 9 or so men behind the ball, hard to get inside
* Great ball over the top, GOAL FOR TORRES
# Chelsea 1 - Swansea 0
- Swansea get into Chelsea half finally
- Counter but Mata offside, good play in the counter though
- Torres looking a bit more confident, nice little flick but run blocked
- Nice delivery from freekick from Mata but wide from Mikel
- Good play from Swansea down the side, foul by Mata
- Yellow card for Mata, unlucky really just a rash challenge
- Chelsea still not looking great against set pieces, ball goes behind
- Anelka offside, stops some buildup
- Another nice move from Torres takes out about 3 players, ball to Cole to Ramires
* GOAL Ramires, great play from all, straight through keepers legs
# Chelsea 2 - Swansea 0
- Terrys run blocked off, freekick just inside Swansea half
- Poor delivery, turnover to Swansea
- Turnover but long ball from Swansea causes no trouble and rolls to Cech
- Got into the box but unlucky from Mata with a backheel
- Torres sent off, double footed lounge after a mistouch from Swansea player
- Stunned from that, down to 10 men
- Swansea able to hold on to a bit more of possesion, Anelka looks to lead the line now
- Swansea not making much of the possesion, Chelsea taking it back easy
- Terry limping around, maybe Luiz on?
- Terry looking ok
- Nothing really on for Swansea
- Ramires pushed off the ball, Swansea have some momentum but play it back
- Chelsea unable to hold onto possesion as easily now with 10 men
- Cross but Ivanovic clears easily
- Half over

Second Half:
- Spoiler:
- - Swansea gets this half started
- Poor turnover and Chelsea manage to clear
- Looks to start where we left off, more possesion from Swansea
- Meireles almost turns it in but just goes wide, corner
- Great play from Swansea, Dyer hits the bar, corner
- Good pressure from Swansea, Chelsea can't seem to get control or get it out
- Counter from Mata, good ball across field to Ramires but can't get onto it as is too close tot he keeper
- Tricky run from Sinclair but pushed out to Swansea in outfield
- Anelka alone up front, not maintaining any possesion
- Chelsea slowly winning the ball back but are wasting any possesion they are getting
- Great cross from Swansea but Mikel blocks it for a corner
- Great run by Mata, but alone on the counter
- Chelsea need to hold on to a bit more of possesion, play it around instead of hoofing long balls and turning over
- Pressing less and waiting for an opportunity to grab the ball, probably due to less energy with a man down
- First period of good play this half, strining some nice passes together and a corner won
- Ramires controls on edge of the box but volley is sent wide
- Mata limping a little, also probably has some rest in thought of the champtions league game this week
+ Malouda(15) on :: Mata(10) off
- Swansea wingers looking good, being found with some cross pitch balls
- Anelka surges forwards alone, 1v4 but gets a great shot off and rattles the post
- Chelsea manage to get some possesion again, but can't make much of it
- Bosingwa carelessly loses us the ball by trying a nutmet
- Cole cuts out another ball out to the wingers, gives Chelsea some possesion
- Malouda has a cross blocked and gets a very deep throw
- A bit of good play in and around the Swansea box but leads to a poor turnover from Meireles, won back quickly
- Cole offside, great play from him though
- Swansea still trying to use the wingers as the outlet but Bosingwa/Cole are catching on and closing down well
- Long ball, offside from Swansea
- Early cross driven in, out by Cole
- Neither side can really get on top, Swansea can have all the possesion in the world but can't make alot of it
- Simple passing/possesion from Chelsea but not really pushing to the final third
- Beautiful cross from Meireles but Ramires jutst can't get onto the ball
- Mikel surges, Anelka has no support
- Much better from Chelsea, just slow wearing away at Swansea, slower buildup is much more acceptable at this point
- Drogba warming up, applause around the stadium
- Swansea get into Chelsea box but the effort blown high and wide
- Swansea sub Dyer off, one of their best players in this match
- Scrappy play around the box by the Chelsea defence, needed to just get it out but results in a throw deep in Chelsea half
- Possesion turned over by Malouda
- Swansea get the ball into the box, looking dangerous but well played out by Chelsea
- Poor foul by Swansea,captain carded
* GOAL Ramires, nice run and a great finish by Ramires. 3-0. Should be game over
# Chelsea 3 - Swansea 0
- Poor defending from Swansea capitalised on by Chelsea
- Swansea have failed to capitalise on their one man advantage, Chelsea look set to cruise to the win
+ Drogba(11) on :: Anelka(39) off
- Decent game from Anelka, nothing special but had nice passing and did well alone up front
- Chelsea look back in control after the goal, passing well and getting into the final third
- Malouda gets into the box but ball eventually out for a goal kick
- McEachran looks to be coming on soon
- Game dying down a little, neither side really pushing on
+ Mceachran(20) on :: Meireles(16) off
- Good display from Meireles, passed well and did his job
- Drogba good ball for Ramires out wide
- Mceachran's first touch a simple pass, hits the mark
- Long ball to Drogba, goalkick to Swansea
- Swansea get the ball into the final third, Cech makes a save and cuts off the attack
- Drogba looking hungry, long ball down the field and Cole gets a card for a poor challenge
* Goal, probably a consilation goal but again poor defending from the set piece, very poor marking again from Bosingwa and not alot Cech could do
- Poor from Chelsea could and should have easily been stopped
# Chelsea 3 - Swansea 1
- Malouda has a decent shot just turned away
- Swansea look to have risen a bit after that goal
- Drogba looks to make progress and beats 2 men with nothing on and earns a close range freekick
- Drogba swings a ball in but no contact is made
- Great ball played through the Chelsea defence but called offside
- Good section of possesion by Swansea, manage to gain a corner
- Again bad defending by Chelsea against the corner
@ Streamer decided to switch channel
- Yellow for Mikel but no clue why as i'm being forced to watch bundesliga
* Goal Drogba! Good run from Malouda and a tidy finish, great return for Drogba
# Chelsea 4 - Swansea 1
& Full time. Chelsea 4 - Swansea 1
Full time:
- Decent game, nice to get a few goals
- MOTM: Ramires, good play and well timed runs to take 2 goals. Was efficient in shutting down the oppositions play

Torres can play Valencia and Genk in between his ban so game time will be no problem.
Nice game from Ramires BTW.

He has been good for three consecutive games now. Against Leverkusen, before the Man Utd game, he provided two assists.
Against Man Utd he was beast although the media would try to brain wash you by showing his miss 100 times.
Today he was good too. He scored a relatively tough goal scoring opportunity and provided in the build up of the second goal by making a wonder pass through 3 Swansea players.
Honestly believe he would have scored a brace in both matches if he hadn't gotten those brainfart moments.
But the fact that he's scoring and assisting shows that those moments are just moments. On Wednesday he'll face Valencia and I expect him to continue his form and make no mistakes there.
