Watched pretty much the whole match. Rlc was looking really good and after this display he must deserve a start.

I feel slightly dirty saying this but kovacic is a bloody damn good player. However him kante and jorginho all dont offer that much goal threat and i would actually prefer kovacic play with either jorginho or kante as hes probably the best all rounder out of the three.

Barkley and rlc as actual goal threats should take that final spot.

Everyone actually played really well. The only disapppointing thing for me was giroud not scoring when he needs some confidence (no one was looking for him that much) and the other one hudson who grew more in confidence but constantly lost the ball or wasted good opportunities. He looked much better in the final 5 but was generally very underwhelming and dribbling too much
 
@Chelsea Pensioner who would you like to see play tonight?
Well my first midfield choice for this game scored a hat trick, so happy there.
Thought Zappacosta played really well and nice to see Christensen and Emerson have a start.Fabregas showed he can pass as well as anyone playing.
All the team showed they are well up to PL standard and Sarri has many more options, for subs especially, than he has been prepared to use. Hope he loses his fear of trusting any of the youngsters who played tonight.
Defenders had little to do, and I think lack of match fitness showed in last 15 mins.
Good run out by everyone, good result.
Were you at the match and how did you see it??

I'd have started Moses and Hudson or would have brought them on much earlier.He could rested the keeper aswell,
not that he had much to do.<laugh>

Nice to see RLC growing in stature, two of his goals were all about his sharpness. Something that Morata or Giroud don’t have.

Yes was at the match and agree wholly with your review.

Only disappointments Giroud and Moses.

Callum does a gay Nani Ronaldo run but looks talented
 
They were a really poor team and their set up was all wrong. Didn’t even pressure the ball and made it easy for us.

Some well taken goals by RLC but still doesn’t fit into the midfield for me as our first choice 3 are all too good. Wonder if Sarri will think about him as the striker?
