Charity Shield - Post Match Thread

[93.01]

You cannot question Jorginho or infact Chelsea on one match i Thought Mahrez was a little off the pace but fully aware in a 3-4 games he will be gel into the quality player we know he is

I've watched him quite a bit tail end of last season and during Chelsea's pre season . He's tidy but in a Carrick type of way. Lovely when he can see the picture before him and his team are dominating possession. Shite when having to go the other way. I see him in a midfield three with Kanye or one of the other two DMS at Chelsea sitting in with him. But I would be astonished if we ever see him taking up the Kante position, it's simply not his game.

Chelsea haven’t had a higher average home attendance than us in over a decade.

I suppose we shouldn't be too harsh as that 90 mins will have been a sobering experience for one or two of them.

Think Bernardo is going to play a massive roll for us this year

He is a joy to watch on the ball

Foden as well how good can this lad become

excellent call on Bernardo i hope he becomes irreplaceable

Brilliant day.
I had a brilliant view first row third tier. £25.
A great view of a fight behind the goals Sergio scored his second.
Add on the first time we have won the charity shield at Wembley and a great performance as well.

Ps your right about mahrez though still bedding in but he showed a lot of promise.

A great performance all round and a great confidence for playing LeArse next week.

Are we allowed to say the Ref had a decent game too or am I over stepping the mark

Bernard and Laporte were the stand out performers for me, if Laporte carries on like this with the motivation on missing out with the French squad he could have a cracking season with us this year

Thought Stonesy was better than Laporte today personally.

Bernardo ran the first half when in the middle, very encouraging for future Merlin replacement.

Dinho was magnificent too.

I will finish today with well done Sergio, no team will get near us this year. Won a few quid on the match as I hope you all did. It's a good job I'm not touchy as a lesser mortal would have been turned red with some of the replies. Good luck to you all, honestly imI blue

I suspect you are finishing the day for one of two reasons:

1. You need to concentrate on Friday now
2. The Mods were going to finish it for you

All spot on for me.
