Chelsea FA Cup s/f (N) | Man of the Match

[Blue Steel]

The two left wingers!

Need to figure out how to get them playing together.

Easy, put Doku - the right winger - into the position he was bought for. On the right.

Feeling sorry for Grealish in how he is still getting sacrificed to get Doku on the pitch when he’s in really good form, creating chances, drawing fouls and keeping the ball in possession.

Problem is that then one of KDB, Foden or Bernardo doesn't get to play. For now he's a good impact sub against tiring defenders. As his consistency improves he'll get more starts on the right and/or left.

Sub Doku in on the right then at 70 mins?

Jack has been playing excellently and he’s constantly having to make way for Doku when other players who aren’t firing as much are saying on the pitch. And there’s no way Grealish should be giving up his minutes or starting spot for Doku right now. Especially as he’s the better all-round player and his hard work in the first 70 minutes of the last two matches have been keeping us in contention.

Ortega for me. 3 or 4 top class saves kept us in the game. Kev run his arse off, Grealish was decent, Akanji best of the defence and Doku scared em to death when he came on. We weren't at our scintillating best(obs) but all 11 played their part. Fuckin love this team!

 

[BlueAnorak]

In order:
Akanji for his defending, Ortega for his saves and Doku for turning the game on it's head when he came on.

Well done Bernie, delighted for him to bag the winner.

 

[Legal Alien]

Ortega he was solid and made a couple of big stops.

Ortega for me

I went for KDB. The energy out there after Wednesdays was incredible, he never stopped. He set up the goal and put Foden through when I thought he might have controlled it better, when I saw it again, it was a similar chance to the one Bobb had at Newcastle which he used his remarkably quick feet.
Special mentions to Ortega and Akanji.
