Slav tells team they must take some blame

Slaven Bilic – whilst bitterly disappointed late ‘penalty that never was ‘- has half suggested the Irons only had themselves to blame for yesterday’s draw at Stamford Bridge.

Our  manager has always told it as it is and usually refuses to apportion blame on officials or anything else accepting the game’s variables with common sense, honesty and balance.

Such is the case again with the boss suggesting we should have put the game to bed some time before  we faced another falling over trick from an opposition player.

I wonder what on earth Louis Van Gaal would have had to say about that one!

Instead Slav declared:  “I know that we deserved more than a draw. We were the better team for the majority of the game.”

And then came the rub as he suggested the team had been guilty of over-playing at times saying: “At times we were playing too sexy and not penetrating enough but we should’ve scored a third. To concede a goal that late was gutting.”
