    yeah.. surprising. Solanke makes the bench. Chalohab gets the love.

    I guess - RLC's desire to play up the field may be a factor. Our team up top is so populated.

    Kouyate is a special talent. But JT could have put some pressure. JT & Cahill together is not a good sight to behold.
    Cahill struggled against Antonio.

    Batters need to step up and score some goal now.

    Begovic worse than useless. Good shot though.

    younger - you meant?

    another half hearted challenge from JT. He shouldn't start league matches on this form.

    a deserved second.
    This has been the best we've played since we ruined the Spuds title hopes last April.

    haha, leave the crack pipe alone. We've been all over you, Begovic has been your best player so far and kept you in the game.

    Randolph is in beach?? <doh> FFS - before HT - we should have grabbed 2 goals.

    Hope this doesn't have any impact on our league form.
    Blessing in disguise - should be end of JT.

    azpilicueta has been so poor tonight.

    simple things like following runners seems to have escaped him!

    Batshuvayi so underwhelming. I don't see where he is going to get game time if we are out of this.

    How did Willian miss that??

    Willian so off boil - understandable.
    Oscar is also so invisible.

    No he doesn't look that good, does he. I'd still swap him for Zaza though

    Ok here we go. Didn't see lot of the game. But glanced in once in a while.

    0s
    JT - Please retire today. Don't be the elephant in the room.

    1s
    Conte - Not just for today's team selection - Not blending in Batters in 0-2, 3-0, 4-0 wins properly.See Bilic blends in Haha today after they went 2-0 up.
    Batshuayi - Not interested. Is this the End?

    2s
    Dave - He is btter CB than Wingback. Awful at best.
    Begovic - Usual shame except for some regulation saves.

    3s
    Pedro - invisible as sub


    4s
    Oscar - invisible except for that odd chance before HT.
    Chalobah - Failed to grab the chance.

    5s
    Aina - did little in the wingback position.
    Costa - Missed some clear chances. Better than Batters easily.


    6s
    Cahill & Luiz - Both did decent.
    Hazard - lively


    7s
    Kante did more than our forward players.
    Willian - got in impressively in the 2nd half.
