I guess I was under the impression that Jorginho was going to be a more surgical passer than he is. When the critical pass is needed he's not exactly Cesc 2.0 by any stretch. And Barkley's ideas are too slow for this team. At £15M or whatever he cost that's an instabuy anymore and I get it. But he should be more of a squad player than he is. Slows everything down. That being said happy with another three points...

^^^ well and truly one of my favorite OG's

This will get lost in all the Kepa v Sarri nonsense but Kante is an amazing footballer. I'm proud to see him in a Chelsea shirt.

Soap Opera FC Again and again.

Hey Burnley...

I mean I really hate to pile on here but I can’t believe how inept this player looks. Some of his crosses are absolutely WTF moments. He brings so little anymore it’s as if we’re playing with one less man on the pitch. Shocking how far he’s fallen since the title winning campaign under Conte.

In spite of what should’ve been a penalty thought AC had a strong game. He’s only a year removed from being a nailed on started for us. Nice to see him back on the pitch

Buzzing right now proper response Chelsea.

What a joke. This thread should be an interesting read later at least...

If you like loads of possession and no goals you're missing a beauty...

Did somebody say Courtois?

See you at Wembley

We need to find somebody to play in the middle (don't care if it's Higuain on loan at this point). Eden, our prized possession, made it clear he doesn't like playing in that role. And taking it a step further it really limits his impact on the game. Every time we had a decent ball hit wide and a cross was on it was laughable as we have nobody taller than 5' 9" to hit into. None of which who are known for their prowess heading a football. Happy with the 3pts and going six clear of Arsenal but this fourth spot is likely gonna go to wire. We need Champions League football next year.

Man does Napoli give the ball away a lot...cheaply too. This is maddening to watch.

Mood:

Alonso today

It's tough to watch this. Every player out on the pitch had one of their worst games of the campaign. Even if that Hazard penalty got awarded if we're all being honest we still very much deserved to lose today. They looked the better side from the opening whistle.

^^^ he ain't wrong about that Kante comment. Either way haven't read thru the recent posts but I'm guessing Morata got MOTM? Fair enough if so but damn did Pedro put in a shift today. Hats off to both of them...

Willian goal should've stood. Also he missed a great run from Alonso around the 40' mark. Barkley looks off today so far but on the flip side always happy to see Morata score (with his feet!).

Watching City/Saints and they just announced second half of Chelsea will be on NBCSN. Never seen that before but I'll take what I can get. Come on you Blues!!!

Yep feel the same way about having to stream. But weirdly it looks like they'll be showing the second half on NBCSN. The game shows up on my guide but starting at noon EST and ending at 1pm

Sure I wanted 3pts but spoiling their victory party is fun too...

That touch from Alonso in on goal...
