Few Positives In Carling Cup Defeat

Ryan Bertrand shines for Chelsea

Another poor Chelsea performance and another loss to Liverpool, however this time there is no hiding from the fact that we were poor.

I am going to attempt to find some positives in an abject display and it is in the performances of Oriol Romeu and Ryan Bertrand who did their growing reputations no harm with two solid performances.

I can see Romeu getting even more gametime as he proves to AVB and the fans that he deserves a place in the team ahead of John Obi Mikel.

The future is also bright for Bertrand who should see himself as the natural successor to Ashley Cole, hopefully when Cole needs resting he will get the call.

Back tonight the performance was lacklustre for all but the last 20 minutes where the introduction of Nicholas Anelka and Juan Mata gave us some much needed width which we could not capitalise on.

We are having some frustrating times at the moment but I will keep the faith, for now in AVB we trust.
