Absolute junk. People calling for Fabregas to start was a stupid idea, the guy was horrendous before he was taken off. Here is my take on some of our supposed starting 11. Courtois- worst mistake we made was keeping him and letting Cech go. No command over his area, no presence. Put Cahill in one awful position by standing completely upright, looking disinterested when the ball fell kindly into the area. Ivanovic- can't cross, can't defend. Deserves to be hung, drawn and quartered. I agree with the calling that he shouldn't touch the pitch for the remainder of his career. Why did we buy Alonso if we are going to continue with this man at RB Cahill- shocking again, mistake after mistake after mistake. Kante- really hasn't had the same impact with us that he did in Leicester, gets over powered, has no passing ability. Matic- looks lost in this role, sick of watching him jog around the pitch looking uninterested. Cant pass to save his life Fabregas- non factor again, easy to see with a game like this why Conte sits him on the bench Hazard/Willian- had no creativity all afternoon, Willian can't take anyone on, won't defend. Hazard is feast of famine right now also Costa- in my opinion the only player we have the has any sort of work ethic, takes balls to his feet, over the top. Never stops running. Some of our better players should take a leaf out of his book. The guy is a work horse up there and is embracing his role that Conte is giving him. All in all we still need a complete overhaul at the back and in midfield. Frail defense with zero creativity in the midfield and a bunch of guys jogging around looking like they have their minds on their summer vacations already. I believe in Conte but there is some sort of cancer going on between the players. Has to be some negativity and bad attitudes in that dressing room somewhere. Guys aren't having fun playing at all. Its evident on there energy and lack of passion.

Such a disgrace the way our beloved Chelsea treats our legends. Not only letting JT go but making him spend 22 grand on renting out Stamford Bridge. Chelsea should comp that fee and put on the biggest spread, party, and send off the world has ever seen. JT is a club legend and will go down as one of the best defenders the world has ever seen. When will Chelsea figure out how to treat its players, Cech gone without even batting an eye lid, Ashley cole same treatment, Frank Lampard sacked off at the first sign of age. All of these players I am sure would have been very happy with a slightly reduced role or even a coaching role. Mind blowing what muppets run our club at times.

Not a chance he drops Ivanovic, the guys untouchable. Wishful thinking if you ask me .

Hazard can play up top can't he?

Hazard looked a little chubby and slow from my observations. I know he's been limited lately but good grief mate.

One day Courtois will be better than Cech, but not right now. Courtois and his distribution is horrendous at times. Fantastic shot stopper but does need to develop his distribution skills. I was nervous on more than one occasion today watching him "command his area"

Anyone else think that Hazard looked out of shape and had a bit of belly going on? Looked chubby and slow from my observation.

Oscar stats last year 35 games played, 7 goals, 9 assists. Not hugely impressive, but not the "pile of rubbish" that some are eluding to on the board. Stats this year 22 GP, 5 goals, 5 assists and a handful of sub appearances. I have to admit he is frustrating at times but definitely is a valuable player for the team.

Thing is with Rahman is he obviously has some qualities or we would not have signed him. However, he's lightweight, does not appear to be hugely athletic, has little to no technique from what I saw when played, and also had a torrid time stopping crosses from coming in. While Ivanovic also has some clear imperfections he is capable of a goal with his head and is much more of a figure in the box for opposition corners etc. If you will read my post again carefully it does clearly state that "Ivanovic has been poor". From my eyes both have some serious work to do but Ivanovic has an upside that he is capable of scoring a goal and is much more of a threat in the opposition half.

BABA RAHMAN is not the answer. No way in hell he should be even close to the pitch. Ivanovic is poor but he has to play before Baba. Poor piece of business to buy Baba and an even worse decision to start him against Arsenal.

Don't be irrational my man. Hazard should not be sold at all... you don't go from being top 5 player in the world to a nobody in one summer. We will regret it if we lose Hazard. Its also ludicrous for you to say that JT should "get lost". ABSOLUTELY NOT: John Terry is the heart and soul of chelsea and it may behoove you to think a little bit about what he has done for us. Has he lost a step? Yes but he should wear a Chelsea shirt and be apart of the dressing room until he can no longer run up and down the pitch. He could sit on the bench for the next 10 years and not play a single game and be a positive influence on the dressing room. A couple of January defenders is a must though....

Knew from the start when I saw TWO defensive midfielders in the line up that we would in for a boring first half. Matic and Pedro were awful again during the first half and even with the two DM, Barkley was still finding room to pull the strings and turn Matic constantly. I also want people to stop calling for Baba to start, did you not watch the few games he did play? He was awful.... not ready to start yet. Ivanovic is horrendous I get it but Baba is surely not the answer. We need to bring in a solid RB in January. Guys said January is for panic buys, well for me the right side of defense is a panic position. Get your check book out Mr.Abramovich.... would also like to see a striker come in also. Diego has been great recently but looked like he was hurt today. Very entertaining game of football nevertheless but some luck to find a draw.

Im not ready to give up on top 4 until its mathematically impossible. Up the Blues. Come on boys. Beat the Toffees this weekend.

Hazard just got a new contract for 200k a week in February of last year didnt he? You guys are right he would cost 100m plus to secure. I think he stays at Chelsea and finishes strong this year and into the Euros before coming back on top form next season. He doesn't need to go to Real. PSG a strong possibility, they are a couple of players away from being really really good and Hazard could give them a boost towards the Champions League. Money not an issue there either.

Why are people saying "I hope Stones and Lukaku torch us". What kind of mug Chelsea fan hopes that? Get behind your team and hope for a win. I would like to see some sort of European football next year. Good grief people. And trust me RLC is not the answer.
