Chelsea (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

I thought the team showed great heart today. Some good performances all over the pitch. I think Marmouch will be a great player for us.
It will get a different game in the week. Bruges will not play a high line and we will need to break them down.
I hope Stones is fit enough for this game and I assume that Kevin will play. The new boys unfortunately can't.
A really good and important win today. Made my weekend.

Last six Prem games, four wins and two draws. Not so bad given how poor we have been.

Huge mental boost from this, I expect us to beat Bruges and the Tarquins now.

Wow, when you put it like that!

And those 2 draws will haunt me until the end of the season, the defeat before too!

Without being daft or bias, it should be 7 wins on the spin.

Much better.

Pep tweaked the shape and actually had his three midfielders in midfield, and with the full backs pushed up it was predominantly a 2-5-3, which meant the midfield didn’t get overrun or run through in the way it has so often this season.

Just got home. Traffic was beyond shite after the game!

First 20 mins were ropey as heck, but we slowly got better and by half time were the only team that was attacking.

Gvardiol should have had a hattrick, but showed again how dangerous he is going forwards.

Matheus Nunes. Best game for us, let alone at right back. Pocketed Sancho supremely and was a big threat going forwards. We have our right back for the season.

Marmoush looked lovely and will become a major threat once they’ve learned to link up properly.

Big Erling was superb in the second half. Bullied their back line and scored a great goal. (Their keeper was shocking, but we’ll take it!)


Gundo, Kovacic and Bernardo dominated their midfield. Enzo Fernandez is a total fraud of a footballer.

Has anyone seen Cole Palmer? ;-)

Yes Palmer was seen in a barbers shop with his mum and a lawyer trying to get his money back for that abomination that would make an Australian sheepshearer blush

Missed tonight's game as my band were rehearsing. And now I'm thinking should i not watch anymore. Was i jinxing the team?

From all accounts reading through the pages seems like i missed a belter

Just keep practising with your band mate - especially during the next 5 weeks and sacrifice watching games for the greater good of the team and all of Blue Moons collective sanity and nervous wellbeing!! It will be worth it, and what about when you get discovered by some trendy A&R type kool kid :-).

You know it makes sense.x

Very un City like identity but I’ll have it.

More balls over the top than we’ve seen in the Pep years combined.

This guy in his best game for months. Grafted his bollocks off and the way he put his arm round Khusanov post error was very professional and captain esque.

He's seemed to be well past it recently, but today, Bernardo provided a defensive masterclass. Very well played, Bernie!

Glad to see that Rico Lewis didn't put a foot wrong.

No need for that, Rico isn't a natural full back because of the physicality required, when Pep et al realise he is RM or RW he will be pure Prem. Don't forget he's only 19, so less of the snarky shit and get behind him. You have no idea what's required to be an elite player.
