Scolari asks questions of 'captain' Cech
Luiz Felipe Scolari was left asking questions of
goalkeeper Petr Cech after Chelsea surrendered a lead in the dying
minutes to draw 2-2 at Fulham.
Twice The Blues conceded to set-pieces at Craven Cottage, both
times Clint Dempsey was the man to benefit.
Dempsey’s second goal particularly annoyed Scolari, who was left
to question why the nearest player to the goalscorer was ANOTHER
Fulham player.
The Chelsea boss refused to accept he himself was at fault
for leaving a post unguarded, instead pointing the finger at Cech’s
organisation.
"Posts do not score goals, players score goals," stated
Scolari.
"I asked Petr what happened because one player was free in the
middle of the area in the last minute.
“It is incredible. Petr is the captain for this area.
"We lost two points today. We made two mistakes with our marking
and conceded two goals. I think they had one more chance - we had
10 chances and scored two goals.
“It is my job now to look and see what happened. It is my
dressing room. I need to look at it.”
