Chelsea (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

I said it in the game thread, this was like the 3-3 at Newcastle early on last season, it was the worst defensive display of the season, we had not control and everytime Newcastle attacked they looked like scoring, that type of game never happened again last season and Pep will make sure tonight never happens again this season, Chelsea played out of their skins and we still got a point, so we'll take it and move on.
Good shout re last year and hope you're right. And I think you will be.
 
Sloppy game that the neutral will have loved but I feel a bit deflated as we led 3 times and couldn't control the game to secure the 3 points.

Top of the league going into the international break though so overall I'm happy.

I hope we crush the dippers in 2 weeks time.
Need to defend a hell of a lot better in that one. Likely to be another high scoring game that

This is how I see it.
 
That Doku chance at 3-2....he really needs to bury those. Very frustrating because he's got the shift and shoot perfected but no accuracy.
In the replay it was clear Phil was wide open for a tap in, a two goal lead at that time would probably have killed the game. Pep saw it and hooked him straight away. Doku will learn from that. re Palmer, a monumental bollock dropped by us, and when Lavia is fit we may see another one. I called it when we bought Philips and sold Lavia in the same window. Time will tell. Personally I'd help Kalvin on to a new club in January and recall Tommy Doyle. When a coach/club tells a young player "we believe in you" they can be transformed overnight. Given the game time Kelvin will get in 2024 we should give those minutes to Rico and Tommy.
 
That was some game. At 2-2 I said to the other half I’d take a point but on that showing Chelsea will be pushing united and Tottenham out of a top 4 finish. I know, I know there is a long way to go
 
I enjoyed that. Not many games we play have that amount of jeapordy and chaos. Far better than watching us pump Bournemouth last week
 
It's quite funny that they are still going on about the penalty on Haaland...

Not a word about Moises Caicedo having about 200 fouls and staying on the pitch today...He blatantly took down Gvaridol and didn't get booked, A few mins later he cleans out Grealish and eventually gets booked.

Conor Gallagher wasn't far behind him with 199 fouls...Players butchering our lads happens that often that it's just accepted now.
 
Must’ve been a banging game to watch as a ‘neutral’, not sure there are that many out there tbh. At 3-3 we said we’d take a draw, at 4-3 we should have gone on and secured the win but maybe we got what we deserved in the end. Not seen us so sloppy in our passing, so stretched defensively or Walker have such a bad day. Still top of the league so those mouthy twats in the pub can fuck right off.
With hindsight wondering whether after going up with 4th goal we put Rico (or even Bibb) on in midfield and take off Harlaand and just try and keep ball. After 4th went in I was confident. We had won it. Fuming now.
