You can tell we're getting frustrated by the heavy appeals for a pen there Ht now. Chelsea in control. Something needs to change. They're a very good side to be fair
Only our selves to blame, don't pick up hazard that's what you get! Chelsea have been average apart from that. We get to the final 3rd and then run out of ideas
Flattered to deceive a bit there. Long periods of possession in which we had no penetration at all. Chelsea look very dangerous whenever they attack. The goal was abysmal defending - but I think Romeu was equally responsible for not going to Hazard when Davis left him.
Pretty useless from several corners and free kicks so far. If only there were a player on the bench with a cracking deadball delivery that is actually better than one/two of our CMs currently playing...
My prediction is we'll get a goal back out of nothing and then Costa will start his usual tricks and how we react will decide where the game goes from there.
I'll be disappointed if we don't get at least a point from this.Keep possession in their half and the chances will come eventually; then we just have to make it count.
Davis has been fine on the ball though, Clasie hasn't. And given that at this point our priority is/has been breaking Chelsea down, makes sense to highlight Clasie.
Fine on the ball if you count how much he slows our attack down. Our point is also not to concede goals so...
On the flip side... had we not given the silly goal away they'd probably be committing more men forward so might be easier to break them down?
Infact I don't really understand how clasie starts games in the first place, hojiberg is the much solid player.
Just too slow through the middle at the moment. need to inject some pace so they don't have all the time in the world to get back in numbers. The goal was a cock up, but Hazard is looking lethal.
