    Here we go with my ratings & review.

    Thibo - useless and hopeless
    Ivan - Dummy
    Cahill - Assist machine for Opposition inherited coveted position from Mikel.
    Luiz - Tried to learn CB role, didn't make glaring mistakes
    Azphi - confused in his LB duty as usual - no help from Hazard
    Kante - ran himself to the ground
    Matic - Too slow and useless
    Fab - Invisible
    Hazard - Disgraceful
    Willian - InDifferent and uncharacteristic
    Costa - Tried hard - no support no player around him


    Alonso - Ok
    Batshuayi - Showed character and desire
    Pedro - Ok

    Conte - Gutless and will be sacked soon. Make JT team manager already <doh>

    I'm sure this has been an eye opener for Conte, but he can't just throw them all out. It takes time.

    I would like to see some of the youngsters given a chance. Hungry and care about the club.

    Exactly that is what I am calling for. I didn't ask for Top 4 or dream about stupid Title like some of our guys here..

    Good with 17th if youngsters are playing.. Not ok with this Dross 11..

    never want to see Cahill(CB) + Ivan(RB) again

    positives:

    1.early subs are a thing now

    2. that 352 looked alright actually, with zouma and jt back would be a bit better defensivley, and the 2 strikers were hungry enough. the midfield would be my only concern.

    3. Conte knows what e's dealing with now.

    4. He's also going to tear them a new one in about five minutes. Oh to be a fly on that wall :)

    Thing is mate that this is the time we need to be behind the team. It was ****e today but we have to get behind Conte. No point getting down about it. I can remember seasons that were a lot worse than this, as I'm sure you can.

    I will be right behind him - if he grows a pair and drops Ivan & Cahill.

    Slowest Chelsea team I've ever watched. Matic was good for about 10 months standing on the toes of our defense but he's so predictable it's painful. All he does is pass it 5 yards to the guy next to him on his left. If he does anything different he gives it away!

    Ivanovic has been dreadful for over a year now. Two highly respected managers kept/keep picking him though. What am I missing?

    Our keeper is terrible too, the sooner he goes back to Spain the better. I'll drive him there for free.

    Awful performance. Besides Costa nobody was interested.

    Bloody hell Stan you're going into meltdown! We failed to turn up in the first half, we were too slow and played too deep. Probably due to the midweek game at Leicester. Hazard was **** as was Cahil with Willian quiet, in hindsight he should have started Moses & Pedro but just a very bad day at the office. Take a lie down FFS.

    unfortunately it doesn't look like one off. Swans, Pool & Goons. Same pattern from Conte - poor team selection late / poor subs.
    I desperately HOPE I am so ****ing wrong and Conte turns it around by dropping useless dummies.

    But I am not too optimistic - Conte looks gutless tbh.
