Chelsea (H) Post Match Thread

One thing Gary Neville did say in commentary that also might be worth watching is that he found at United when you got to the later stage of the CL that playing teams who just come and play (or not play) v you week after week hoping for one break to get a draw can make it harder to raise your game when needed and you are playing the top Euro sides after week after week of opposition not playing football against you.
 
Absolutely fantastic week.
Great attitude, work ethic and desire. Brilliant.

The intensity issue could also come from winning the league early like Bayern did. I think we’ve got the bit between our teeth now.The chance to really make history.
 
Really strange they didn't play one of Morata or Giroud especially with no Fernandinho there to compete for the ariel ball. Their best chance of the game started with Alonso beating Walker in the air and they played from there. Hazard from the left would have seen more of the ball as well, not that I'm complaining. Despite the number of passes we made I think the main thing to take was our work when we lost it, De Bruyne Sane and Aguero still sprinting to close down in the last few minutes.
 
Thanks Chelsea. Conte gave us the game with his stupid tactics. That was like Newcastle parking the bus when 1-0 down
