Chelsea (A) | Post-Match Thread

I am wondering if Ferran played instead of Foden, would we have scored more goals? Tough to say but Foden struggled and did not do the runs that Ferran would have done

There was a pass from Cancelo that Ferran would have scored but foden was a bit behind! This False 9 position will continue to be an issue for us
yet we won the league last season with it. We're scoring more goals than other teams this season.

You guys are just setting up "I told you so" situations. Put your mouth where you head is... Are we going to NOT win the PL without a stiker or are you going to sit on the fence and then tell us all you knew?
 
Two differences today. One; we fielded our best side and formation current form. It included those players who are prepared to run until they drop. And two; closely related to that, our pressing was up there with the best ever.

We were like a swarm of fcukin bees.
swarm of bees. like it. We were so up for it.
 
All those missed chances added to the excitement. Think I preferred it that way actually rather than the comfortable 5-0 it could have been...
Yeah. Have to admit I was getting nervous near the end, though. Not because of anything we/they were doing - just fearing a stroke of bad luck.

Unusually I wasn't

It just felt like they were never gonna score

In fact I was waiting for us to break away and score a second
 
Well that’s me wrong again and I’m absolutely delighted to be,posted in the pre match thread I think sometime during the week that Chelsea would win 2-0 and keep us at arms length..How wrong was I absolutely bossed that game from the first minute only thing is the 1-0 flatters Chelsea should have been 3 or 4,oh and rudiger is a cnut ...
I echo all that mate
 
I haven't seen the game today, just finished work, made up with the 3 points which I wasn't expecting, who played above and beyond and was the scoreline a true reflection of the game, just hope we do the same to the dippers next week.
 
Wasn't too sure about Cancelo at left back, but he is returning to last seasons early form and was brilliant today.

I know a few fans won't like this statement, but I thought Gundogan being out helped a lot with that.
 
I commented at half time how Rodders and Bernie had both been awesome, didn’t think they’d both be capable of carrying it on for the full 90, but they were absolutely outstanding. Phenomenal.
To be honest, at 70 minutes you could see Rodri was fucked. His socks were down & he was blowing like a heavyweight boxer in the 12th of a gruelling scrap. What it proved is how much energy he expended in today's brilliant win... :-)
 
Just went to get a Mac from the services on M20 as the Mrs.broke her wrist and couldnt be arsed cooking..long queues and everyone waiting to see one person on the order desk.. no-one using the screens for orders.. walked upto the screens , placed my order and a rag in a rag shirt, came upto me and accuses me of pushing in..now I was euphoric after the win ,said do you know the scores today and when did you last win a trophy ?..Manchester is Blue !!! he just crumbled and skulked off..epic end to an epic day.
