This first half has been, frankly, brilliant. It's like a classic European night, but it's Chelsea. So, so pleased with the performance so far.
poch is fuming. they've played nobody for a while, got some results and thought they were it. I know the league cup final will be different as its at Wembley but this is showing chelsea's mid table level.
At least Nunez got in the box to take the penalty. He keeps getting into the right place to be dangerous...
He does seem to do better the harder the challenge... like he loses focus on the tap-ins, but when it looks hard he'll score a blinder.
how many snide little fouls is thst from gallagher now. clearly pushed konate over after ball was gone having had a hack at him before it.
nah he just ****ing wellied it after the keeper dived the wrong way. same as salah has. just pass the ball into the net.
really enjoyed that half - good atmosphere , good inventive play and a cracking goal from Connor Oh and Darwin being Darwin
see that a lot normally it is just so the GK isn't sure who is taking it and to protect the penalty spot
Yes, and that’s why I have an issue with it - he doesn’t even ‘need a goal’, he’s been scoring and we shouldn’t be thinking that way anyway. What an amazing half of football that was though
