Chelsea (A) Post Match Thread

[Stoned Rose]

Different animal this year.

It's all building towards being able to pull off those "European away" games in the CL imo.

Very good team performance but I thought Zinchenko was fucking magnificent considering he isn't a regular.

 

[Heath Park]

Came on to say exactly this, everyone will praise our performance today but in reality it was similar to most others the only difference being we finished chances.

Higher tempo today I thought.
Crisper passing, more closing down.
All started at the front by De Bruyne. He lead by example big time.

Both Foden and Bernardo both excellent at harassing Chelsea at the back.

Ha ha!

Big win today.

The team spirit looks fantastic. You could see how they celebrated together after each goal.

Love the Dias and Stones partnership.

Wow......simply wonderful performance,especially under the circumstances.......Controlled,purposeful and brilliantly skillful - a complete team effort and probably up their with my favourite performances.

Pep got his tactics and line up spot on.

Gundogan was imperious,quite simply a midfield masterclass which had me drooling in parts - unquestionably MOTM

But,despite no one(other than Rodri in the first half) falling below an 8/10.....special mentions for Cancelo and Zinchenko.who both did brilliantly.

Our defense looks absolutely superb,Stones and Dias are surely becoming the best partnership this club has seen in a good while.

Overall 3 amazing points that should have others very concerned,and a brilliant warm up for the Derby!!

Shame about the lack of clean sheet but it spoilt nothing.

Even the Altrincham fan had a decent game!

Totally agree - we schooled Chelsea today.

 

[Ban-jani]

Foden on the left and Sterling on the right worked so well for us.

Credit to Pep for that.

When Chelsea tried to press us a little, Foden was in acres so many times and a little more quality in the final third and we score 5/6 today.

 

[BertTrautmann'sParachute]

Are we still declining?

More like inclining after that performance.

 

[Newman Noggs]

Keep taking our chances and we'll win the league

[hertsblue]

Gundogan
KDB
foden
Diaz
stones
Cancelo

All have to be

Knowing Crooks, it will be just Ederson for keeping a clean sheet and Jesus for scoring today
