It might have been a great game for the neutral but from our perspective it's two points thrown away. You just can't score four goals away from home and not win it's ridiculous.

For all the wanking about Gvardiol I'm not impressed.....and yes I know he's still settling in. The biggest problem is our midfield. Without De Bruyne and Stones it's as weak as fuck. Nunes and Kovacic are well below the level we are used to and as for Phillips, he's a lost cause. No decent midfield protecting it means our defence creaks when it's put under pressure and boy was it today. Individually and collectively they were shocking.

Looking on the positive side were still top by a point and we normally get better as the season progresses. I guess it's just raw after scoring so late not to win it so I may be being overly critical.

Don't agree with all of that but that's a grown up response which I'm not capable of right now!

Great game, still top, that's all.

Shouldn’t be conceding 4 goals defence awful today. That bald headed red prick is a cheating ****. Got nothing from him today

Good Lord. I just went onto Reddit and everyone thinks Chelsea got the short end of the stick. LMAO.

Gallagher went studs up on Dias, had a nasty challenge in the second half, and THREE other fouls according to Opta and didn't get a single card.

No Kev, Stones hardly played, top going into yet another fucking international break and qualified from the CL group...obviously would like to be 6 points clear but we'd all take where we are now when Kev was injured.

I guess you have to enjoy games like that. Disappointed not to win of course but chelsea have been improving.

What it did show me is doku and gvardiol arent ready for those big games yet. Doku especially. I love the guy but today was a game for Jackie G

I asked because I noted that (about 10mins ago) no one had voted for him for MOTM and last week he was the new Messiah (not Messi but Messiah) and I worried that we were putting him on a pedestal a little early. Just my superstitious nature again! :-(

Nah, he's good. He'll keep improving

i am not too happy we beat Arse and Chelsea away last season and this season we only got 1 point from these fixtures.

On the other hand, we lost to the rags last season but fucking smashed the cunts this season.

KDB is a massive loss in these games.

Him and Gundo. Both massively experienced, cool and can keep the ball.

 

[Blue Mist]

What ever is said about points dropped or certain players that was a great game of football. Congratulations to both teams.

They weren't too clever with their defending either.
