Premier League: Luiz Felipe Scolari bemoans lack of cutting edge as Chelsea make hard work of home games

There were no recriminations at Chelsea's training base in leafy Surrey yesterday. The team, after all, are on top of the Premier League with a monstrous goal difference and are set to qualify for the knock-out stages of the Champions League. The penalty shoot-out defeat the previous evening at the hands of the upwardly mobile Championship club Burnley, in the Carling Cup fourth round at Stamford Bridge, felt like an irritation, a blip that could be explained away. Luiz Felipe Scolari had already started the process, wondering how his attacking players had failed to finish off their opponents. Put 1-0 up through Didier Drogba, the manager felt his team had "five or six chances to score a second". "But what happened is similar to other games," he added. "If we had more quality in front of goal we would have won the game." The reverse, though, threw up a statistical curiosity, coming as it did on the heels of the club's Champions League loss at Roma and the Premier League defeat at home to Liverpool. Not since the end of the 2005-06 season had Chelsea lost three times in six games or less and back then, the defeats at Blackburn and Newcastle in the final two matches of the Premier League campaign came after the title had already been sewn up. Chelsea's other loss in the sequence was in the FA Cup semi-final against Liverpool. The Burnley game also raised questions about the creative balance in the team. The most noticeable change under Scolari has been the handing of greater attacking licence to his full-backs, and there is generally more freedom throughout the side. When the juices are flowing in Deco, Frank Lampard et al, the results can be devastating. Chelsea have handed out some beatings this season, most notably in the Premier League to Portsmouth, Middlesbrough and Sunderland. In contrast to the days Jose Mourinho, if Scolari's Chelsea score that second goal, they can run riot. The flip side, though, can be seen when things are not coming off for their attackers. On occasions already this season, predominantly at home, they have struggled against well-organised, hard-working teams who look to play on the counter-attack, as Burnley did and as Liverpool, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur also did before them . Scolari himself has noted that his team are better set up for away games where, apart from against Roma when they hit the buffers after gaining early control, and the 0-0 Champions League draw at CFR Cluj, they have been outstanding. "It's certainly easier for us to play away from home because opponents open up more," said the Brazilian. The problem with an expansive style is that the margins are greater and riskier. Whereas Mourinho considered players to be cogs in the machine, Scolari's approach puts his team closer to United and Arsenal. For these clubs the by-product of entertainment is the occasional slip-up.Can Chelsea still grind out results? So far under Scolari, the 1-0 home win over Roma, when the captain John Terry's late header bailed them out, appears to be the exception. Scolari has lamented his lack of back-up plans, even pointing out that he wished he had players who could win free-kicks around the penalty area which might settle tight games. "You can start to feel a small problem emerging at Stamford Bridge when teams set up to defend deep," said Jason Cundy, the former Chelsea defender. "And once they get that goal, like Liverpool did, it's not easy. They allow the ball to go wide and then defend the cross. I do think Chelsea have missed Drogba, they have missed that route-one option, and you can only imagine the impact Robinho would have had if he had signed."Scolari would like to freshen up his squad in January, most likely raising money through one or two sales as funds are tight, but he would also benefit from injured players returning to fitness. "People talk about the lack of a Plan B but injuries have not helped," said Scott Minto, another former Chelsea player. "Look at the substitutes' bench in some of the matches. It's had experienced defenders and young strikers on it. There's not a lot to bring on to change the game. "Chelsea have had some key players out - Drogba, Joe Cole, Michael Ballack, Deco, too. I still think it's looking very good for Chelsea."Bridge of sighsAug 31 Chelsea 1 Tottenham 1 PremJuliano Belletti's 28th-minute shot gives Chelsea the lead but following a mistake by Frank Lampard, Darren Bent equalises just before the break.

Cricket: players rubbish Stanford series as a 'garden party'

The Stanford Super Series has come under fire from the England players, with their representative, Sean Morris, calling the multi-million dollar tournament "a garden party". Morris, chief executive of the Professional Cricketers' Association, is in Antigua for tomorrow's $20m (£12.2m) shoot-out between an England XI and the Stanford Superstars, a camouflaged West Indies team, and had been expected to talk to the players about prospective participation in the Indian Premier League.Instead a meeting with players on Wednesday evening brought to the fore concerns about the manner in which the tournament is being conducted, with issues ranging from the on-field conditions, where the quality of the pitch, outfield and floodlights has been heavily questioned, as well as other worries, particularly the high-profile manner in which the tournament's sponsor, Sir Allen Stanford, has taken to entering the dressing room, regarded as a no-go area."We met last night with the majority of players," said Morris yesterday while the team were at practice, "and there is a feeling that they are pretty uncomfortable with a number of things." The pitch, which has proved slow and unreliable, resulting in low-scoring matches, and the lights, which have given problems for catchers, have been strongly criticised as unsuitable for such a high-profile encounter. "It all gives you a feeling that you are turning up for a bit of a garden party," said Morris, "which shouldn't be the case with England cricket. They are turning up for a tough game of international cricket and it doesn't feel that way."Instead there is a sense that the game has been devalued in terms of a contest because there is a little more luck involved on those sort of pitches. And that, mirrored with a couple of things off the field, created a feeling that it is not entirely the most professional event they have attended. Once you come to play for that sort of money you accept there are some strings attached. But whether it is the playing surface or the behaviour round the dressing rooms, you expect a certain amount of professionalism when playing for England and I don't think it's been met entirely."Mike Soper, the man Giles Clarke beat to become chairman of the England and Wales Cricket Board last year, added to the mood of disenchantment with a swipe at the man who cut the deal with Stanford. "I don't know Giles Carke particularly well but I have not been impressed by what I have seen," he said. "We don't want some loose cannon flying round the world shooting from the hip. It's a titular role, about flesh-pressing. The tail shouldn't be wagging the dog."Clarke comes up for re-election in March. Soper added: "It's unlikely I would stand next year. I'm looking forward to the presidency of Surrey. But if he stays in power I may put up against him again."Morris is merely offering the views of those he represents. But there is a real danger as the week has gone on, of things being taken out of proportion. The much maligned pitches have not been conducive to Twenty20 but, given that the island was awash from torrential rain barely a week ago, it has been a diligent effort by groundstaff to get a surface of any suitability. So too the incident involving some of the players' partners, who were depicted on television being flirted with by Stanford, something that upset the players concerned. Stanford has apologised and even the manner in which he had taken to marching unannounced into the dressing room possibly has its roots in cultural differences rather than just the ego of a man who owns the whole show. In major American sports the locker room, far from being sacrosanct, is often an open area for media. "There was an issue with the dressing room," said a spokesman for Stanford. "Sir Allen understands the sensitivities of the England players and will not encroach on the area again."The ECB has said that it would review the Super Series and the $100m agreement with the Texan billionaire. Accusations that the game is not being run professionally are harsh, though, on an event that has been an extremely slick operation that puts to shame much of cricket staging elsewhere. "They accept it is not perfect but have a chance of winning a million bucks," said Morris. "I think they are prepared to get through it." Meanwhile Ryan Sidebottom's injured calf looks to have eliminated him from tomorrow's team.Stanford Super SeriesEngland Cricket TeamTwenty20Cricketguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2008 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds

Preview: Esher v Leeds Carnegie

On Saturday the Tykes make another trip south. Once again, the destination is Surrey, but this time it's Esher instead of Richmond. What do we know about Esher? Not a lot, if we're honest. Do we even know how to pronounce it? It it Eee-shur or Esh-ur? AramisTyke assures me it's the former, and he should know as his reverend father once took care of the spiritual needs of the locals.
