Bakes, so Chelsea is supposed to make Arsenal job easier? I came you are now learning the game the idea is to make it as difficult for the opposing team to score. Did arsenal field a team that made it easy for Chelsea to run at them. No
What a soft excuse, Chelsea did not GIVE them the room to play If Arsenal is that good, then break Chelsea down.
You are completely missing the point... either deliberately so, or despite your best efforts. No, Chelsea is not supposed to make it easy for them to play. Let's use simple language so that even you could follow along. Your focus is on criticising Arsenal's lack of offensive punch. That is a separate issue from whether Chelsea played "negative" defensive-minded football. Simple enough so far? The discussion started with Bitter's post about Chelsea playing negative ("Stoke or Sunderland") football. Following so far? See, no mention of how Arsenal played. In fact, if Arsenal was so poor as you claim, then there would be no need for Chelsea to play in a limited defensive shell, would there? Good.
So continuing...
Yes, the idea it to make it difficult for the other team to score. Really good teams figure out how to do this without sacrificing positive, attacking football. At his best Mourinho was able to achieve this with past Chelsea teams. I believe he came and tried to do the same again, but realized the limitations of his team following losses to Stoke and Sunderland. You are here arguing for the sake of arguing, especially when Mourinho himself predicted how he might set the strategy going forward:
"We may have to take a step back in order to be more consistent at the back," the Portuguese manager said after Chelsea's surprise Capital One Cup exit at Sunderland on Tuesday evening. "It's something I don't want to do, to play more counterattacking, but I'm giving it serious thought. If I want to win 1-0, I think I can, as I think it's one of the easiest things in football. It's not so difficult, as you don't give players the chance to express themselves."
