He knows how we feel. Our head cheerleader

Happier than kids in Christmas morning. He knows exactly how we feel

Oscar with the assist, Remy with a debut goal. Well, everything is perfect, except Hazard's goal or assist. He deserves it

Iva put in a great cross in the first - for Costa I guess, just on his head. He's been amazing in the attack, AGAIN. Ramires has been shutting me up right and left, he's been amazing, he should start regardless of the opposition, he's been amazing. I hope he carries on. Hazard has been amazing too, brilliant even. Oscar had his moments and I think Cesc has been magical, but also ran and covered a lot. If we concede but play like this, I'm satisfied.

am I the only one literally laughing like an idiot now? I mean, this is Chelsea, bitches!!!!!!!! We're scoring and playing for fun. Boring team is what they said

who has the hat trick? seriously, is this really happening? I mean, how's that even possible?

but Ramires has been pretty high in the pitch too... Ramires brings stability in games like this, I agree and concede he should start. Schurrle and Oscar should be taking turns in the AM for matches against teams like this and Ramires should play there, but still Ramires is playing very high and I can't honestly say between him and Cesc who's playing higher. It seems like a diamond with both Cesc and Ramires near the attacks and Matic in the back, if you ask me.

guess who, bitches?

why didn't Oscar shoot? UGH!

Think Schurrle should be subbed, not Oscar... and maybe for Willian, but Rami would do

when Matic is back in the zone, eating opponents for breakfast, we'll look much more stable, but never like last season. He'll come there, I'm sure he will, he's one of our key players and I think we'll look much better defensively when he's finally on his best again. He's like a thermometer in the team, but regardless of when he regains his best form and enters beast mode, we won't be as solid defensively as last season because the system changed, there's no way to keep that defensive solidness and have more attacking football employing only 11 players. Some of them won't have as much defensive contribution because they're too busy contributing in the attack and there's so much running up and down they can do... I think Matic is also feeling this - we all know stamina has never been his forte, but hopefully he'll be able to keep up and find the balance.

exactly my feelings

so did I, but they won't listen under their pessimism and surprisingly Mourinho criticism... Also, I'd rather keep Cesc - the midfield liability for some in the team - if he continues to assist every match than anyone else. And that's after the guy being everywhere... but you know... I think Hazard was brilliant this first half, that the kind of performance I hope he keeps throughout most of the matches, assists and goals are consequence of that and will come now and then. He's been really good, doing his thing, enabling the team. He's been our best player in the first half

fuck DIEGO COSTA YEAH!!!!!!

You're exaggerating. He hasn't been left all on his own like that. He definitely isn't making a two-men job. You don't like Cesc in the team, we all know that. You've been unfair to him though

come on, boys, no wasteful football. Let's get this around in the first half already.

he's making individual mistakes that have nothing to do with who's by his side. His bad judgment about passing the ball cost us a goal, his passing has been shocking, what does it have to do with his partner? Things are not perfect in our midfield, but he's technically poor. Technically.

at this pace Swansea won't end this match with 11 players.

Matic is really having a mare in this match and overall at the start of the season. If he doesn't play well, we're fucked, no matter who partners with him... unless we have both Mikel AND Ramires, but that's too much, we're already over it, but we need Matic to perform.

well, we're getting things under control and we're starting to pressure them. I still see us winning this.

yep, really don't want to keep this defense harmony, because there's none...

Fucking Matic fault this goal
