Match Day Thread Chelsea vs Southampton - Saturday 3rd October, K.O. 17:30

BBC saying it right:

The referee was to blame for not giving a penalty to Chelsea for the incident involving Radamel Falcao. I can sympathise with Jose on the decision not to award a spot-kick for this, as it was a very valid claim.

However, this ignores the two clear incidents when Southampton should have been awarded a penalty for the shirt-tug on Virgil van Dijk and the trip on Sadio Mane. You win some, you lose some.

Oh, and the fact that Southampton were the better side. That too.

Staying in the same part of London but a different shaped ball......COME ON ENGLAND!!!!!!

Mr Moan is blaming the Referee, what dire hypocrisy is that?

Actually I think that's great. No one who saw the game, even sees the highlights will believe. Guys in lalaland!

Koeman: "If they should have had one penalty, we should have had two." - *smirks*

 

[SaintinSerbia]

after a game like that why are people bickering?

 

[SaintJabie]

Personally I think the match was unfair. Chelsea were wearing trainers and we were wearing cobras!

 

[Qwerty]

after a game like that why are people bickering?

If they'd just had 10 pints it would make sense.

On a related note, I'm going out.

BBC -

"Let's give Southampton some love. They defended resolutely, they attacked ruthlessly. They had the best player on the pitch in Sadio Mane. They are the first team to score three goals at Stamford Bridge against a Jose Mourinho team in the Premier League. They are now up to ninth in the table with 12 points."

Couldn't agree more - though last time we won 3-1 it didn't go so well!!

I really hope Shearer is on MOTD tonight - he will have loved Pelle's performance.

Christ we won for gods sake.

Cant we all give it a rest and appreciate an amazing TEAM performance...

Remember that some people on here will only pick their favourites players as MOTM. It really does beggar belief at times how biased some are on here to their favourites. Pelle and Mane absolutely terrorised Chelsea. Those two were the difference between the two teams. Pelle my MOTM, Mane in second.

MOTD first up is.......Man City v Newcastle.
