!Hazard!

Plenty of goals in that attack with Mount, Barkley, Pedro and Abraham. I guess he really expects us to dominate all of the possession. Hopefully the defence won't let us down

I really do like Conte but I think his judgement on signings has been somewhat questionable at every club he has been. I mean, surely he can think of better players to sign than Lukaku and 2019 Alexis Sanchez?

Extremely impressive performance from this young lad! Bossed the midfield with sharp creative passing, can shield the ball under pressure and dribble his way out of it like a seasoned veteran.

This is not an ordinary group of youngsters at all. I can't remember any top team coming up with 6-7 top class talents at the same time since Class of 92 or Barca 2008-9.

United-Rochdale 1-1

You mean 30000

REECE JAMES

So this is what "Academy Day" looks like, Jose

Gilmour looks to be the real deal as well! What the hell is happening with all these kids, this can't be Chelsea

First 45 minutes of first team football for Reece James and I love him already. Built like a rugby player and a proper footballer as well. He could dominate that right side like Ivanovic did in his prime

He has started improving as soon as I wrote that hehe. Making nice runs and whipping couple good crosses into the box. It can't be easy for a young lad not playing all the time. Needs time to get comfortable on the pitch for sure e. Pedro taking the Pen? Well whatever, 3-1!

Pulisic hasnt looked too good. He'll have to take big steps forward or else risk sitting on the bench for most of the season

Great hit that was indeed but looked offside

No clean sheet

A lot of strong characters in this squad, especially the "kids" all seem proper professionals in their attitude who cannot be bullied with few setbacks or comments from pundits. We're light years ahead of Arsenal and United in this aspect and its one of the reasons I have so much trust in this particular group of young players.

Barkleyyyy!

Lack of true defensive midfielders in this squad is bit of a worry. Shouldn't affect this game though

Brilliant! Where the hell can I watch this though?

Given our troubles at left back position due to Emerson's injury, it would be great to see Maatsen getting some gametime tonight. Who knows how well he'd perform.

VAR should only be used to get the big mistakes out – those you can see with human eye from 20 metres away. If you can't tell after 2 seconds of watching a STILL image whether there's an offside or not, then it's not offside. The way it's used right now to measure millimetres is worrying and is threatening to kill this sport. It needs to become a lot faster. The way teams are celebrating goals for half a minute before being told that goal has been ruled out or is under investigation is unacceptable.

Our midfield ran a riot today. Kante, Jorginho, Kovacic all had outstanding performances

The thing is that these good performances will yield results in the end. The silly mistakes we are doing each game are fixable We were the better team today. Shame about the two mistakes once again. Apart from that zonal marking shite there's a lot of positives to take from this game

We really deserve at least a point from this one. Liverpool have been mediocre for the past 60 minutes

Batshuayi? Thats our last sub dammit

Pedro or Pulisiicc please. We need someone making runs in behind
