BladesPod: Chelsea Review & Bristol City Preview

[Beans]

Afternoon all,

Roygbiv joins me as always to discuss feeling fairly ok with yesterday's Chelsea game, although less benign about a quite bizarre 70 seconds or so of decision-making. Plus, we finish off by previewing the arguably more meaningful (as in, I would argue this) game with Bristol City on Wednesday night.

Thank you, as always, for listening, and UTB!



And here on Apple and Spotify.

PS: small correction, I said that Chris Brunt was a Bristol City player - he was actually released by them last month after a bad injury.

A great listen as always. I wish that we would stop passing back to the keeper from forty yards, it boils my piss.

Really enjoyed the pods lately, lads. I am one of those who can't bear to discuss or hear about our performances when things are going badly (self-preservation!) so I hadn't listened in a while but the past few pods have been great and helped make a few lengthy runs in the cold and dark a lot more bearable. You could say that I couldn't take my hat off any more to you. Glad to hear that you have a similar feeling on the Chelsea game to me as well, ie. fairly ok, so I think I can stomach this!

It's even worse when you're 40 yards out and play a 10 yard back pass.

Another good pod, thanks again lads.

It is brilliant that even after all the shit we've taken this season, Roygbiv can still get angry and into full-on-rant mode. No wonder his dad wanders off to the bathroom from time to time.

Please keep it up lads.

Just finished listening, enjoyed it again.

Good to see some positivity as I was pretty down after the game based on the fact that we weren't ever really 'in' the game despite only being a goal down for most of it. I do just think that some of these teams are toying with us at times. Maybe we were a bit better than I thought. Thanks to Beans for mentioning the 50:50 tackle that Norwood actually won as well, I was ready to shout at my TV if he'd have pulled out or dangled a leg.

When you think about it, Mount/Jorginho/Kovaci v Fleck/Norwood/Lundstram shouldn't really be a contest should it?!

Does anyone know how Kovacic's amputation went by the way?! I'm assuming that's what was required after the tackle in the 2nd half when he screamed.

McBurnie alternative MOTM?

He played well, they backed this up with stats.
