Time for Big Phil to get tough as cracks showing

SO the equaliser was offside; and the same linesman called Kalou offside twice, wrongly, when he was through on goal; and we should have had a penalty.

This sort of injustice used to fire up our team, now it seems to instil panic and ensures that our game goes to pot. I won’t lie to you, I’m worried.

We played well in the first half and seemed totally in control; Lampard narrowly missed making it 2-0, 10 minutes after the break, and I foolishly thought that my feelings of doom had been completely unjustified. I should have known better.
