ROBBED

Robbed of the game, robbed of three very crucial points and maybe just maybe robbed of the title. Indeed it was Chris Foy vs Chelsea again and the ref came out on top. One or two decisions going against a team can be considered a mistake by the officials but so many, right from the beginning to the very end, no, Foy surely hates Chelsea.
7 red card in 8 matches to Chelsea players and none against that surely can't be a coincidence. He sends Chelsea players off even if they shoulder barge into an opposing player whereas last season he didn't send Aguero off when he stomped with both feets on David Luiz. Yesterday's game was similar, Foy and his assistants were pathetic continually giving offside decisions when the Chelsea players were clearly onside. Cancelling out Matic's goal after giving it. I mean how can the linesman who only had a view of Matic's back have an influence on that decision. To not giving a red card to a Villa player for a last man tackle to penalizing Chelsea players for nothing, that was the story of the first half in which Chelsea weren't at their fluent best either. Not creative enough, looking tired and with a striker in Fernando Torres who can't do anything correct, that was the Chelsea eleven.
Chelsea though started the second half really well. Aggressively, creating lots of pressure on the Villa goal and seeing loads of possession. But then Mr Foy struck again with the moment of the match, probably a title defining one. Sending Willian off with a second yellow card for not much of a tackle. Reducing Chelsea to 10 men by sending off one of their most creative players Foy literally won Villa won the match. At least he made sure they can't lose. Then with the man advantage came immense pressure from Villa which led to the match winning goal from Delph. Credit must be given where it's due it was a brilliantly worked goal from Villa and a pretty awesome finish the Villa man. From that there was no coming back for the 10 men Chelsea. They tried to put some pressure on the Villa goal by throwing players up the field but to no use. Then finally as time drew near came another blow for Chelsea as Ramires was sent off with a straight red. Now with that decision the Chelsea fans can't complain that one deserved red. And with the very poor kind of form Ramires has been in Chelsea will do better without him for a few games. Oh let's not forget Mr Foy also sent Mourinho off to the stands cause he wanted to talk to him. Well done ref, you're a disgrace to the league.
All that being said some of the Chelsea players seriously need a reality check. Ramires and "the best striker" we have Fernando Torres. Haven't seen any players from the top sides performing so so badly. They simply can't do any right. Absolutely nothing.
Cesar Azpilicueta and Nemanja Matic were again the best two Chelsea players on the field. Although Matic faded off a bit in the second half of the game. These are the kind of games where Chelsea fans hope a Hazard or Oscar will turn it up and win it on their own. But sadly as of now they  haven't done it. Hopefully we will see those performances really soon as well. I have faith in those players. They are world class, they are the best.
Six points the gap and Manchester City having three games in hand Jose's comments are actually coming true, this is now most definitely City's title to lose, they are now the favorites to win the Barclays Premier League.
Two very important home games coming up in the week. One which will mark the return of the King to Stamford Bridge and the other a visit from Arsene Wenger. These two games will be season defining for the Blues. Positive results hopefully without anymore "Foy" moments.
