Jesus Navas - 2016/17 performances

[kaz7]

He did play well today,i don't know why he gets so much grief

Thought he had a decentish game today, still hitting the first man as usual but other than that, thought he created quite abit on that right side today.

Our players finishing is ten times worse when Navas is the one who puts it on a plate for them, no idea why. The amount of sitters he sets up but aren't put away is mental

He was good today. No complaints.

Which is why I don't understand the grief Navas gets (not you). If our attacking players would have better finishing, Jesus would have even more assists to his name regardless of the "can't get past 1st player" brigade.
That and the "can't cross" group gets me. 1 today was dangerous enough for Cahill to stick a leg out for own goal. His speed gives us some defensive cover as well.

Played well today, despite having a horrible time trying to win aerial duels against a far taller player.

 

[Bluwhit]

Good today? He was our best player.

 

[Pete Campbell]

Him and Silva were shining lights

 

[Walking on the blue moon]

He was great. Lots of lovely one-twos with KDB and Silva. For all the grief he's getting about his crosses, they were actually pretty accurate. Defensively he did his best to get back to positions. Don't know why people said that he should not have started in the post-match thread.

 

[Blueband Brother]

He certainly did not deserve to be on the losing side. Man of the match. Played some good balls in the box and the Chelsea defense could not handle him.
