Closed Chelsea v Schalke

[Milan 17,835]

Hos Tibo celebrated Cesc's goal

Dissapointing half. We are playing against a 2nd tier defense and cant create much. Drogba is deadwood and shouldnt be anywhere near our squad. Would rather give someone like Solanke or Brown a chance to shine rather than playing Drogs. He is past it.

Should score the 2nd one. Our defense is very shaky and we are lucky that Draxler didnt score

[DYC. 7,542]

Their defense is all injured, but some of their AMs are recovered and Draxler could have drawn for them just at nick of first time.

Seriously... we need to kill the match. Bring Remy if Mourinho really feels like resting Costa is necessary.

Luís has been my MOTM in the first half. His passing has been brilliant, as well as his pressing. Schalke didn't try much from his side, but it doesn't seem like Azpili is missed defensively at all. I'd go with him for City - even knowing it's a risk to give him a debut against such a tough opposition. But I don't think he's struggling so much with the physicality to the point he'd compromise defensively. Even if he stays put most of the time, a couple of the cross he's done today could make a whole difference.

Sorry, but he's an upgrade to Azpili all day long...

Having a left footed player at LB makes me tingle. I'd play Luis against City as well.

I love Filipe's energy. The guy just keeps going.

"You’re never gonna see me walking on the pitch, always running!"

[Supermonkey92 1,428]

We've been too easy to get at through the middle. Attacking wise absolutely no problems.

What is up with Matic? Didn't want to jump on the train with everyone else but I have to admit now he seems lacklustre

Barbara gifs? Pleasseee pleasee someone help :(

how have Thibaut and COurtois done

[Dion 2,476]

Would like to know what has happened to our defence this season. Compared to the high standards of last season, we have been quite appalling really and that Draxler chance just before HT summed it up.

@Madmax, go claim your prize from Alex.

That Draxler chance was weird as fuck, there were three players on him and none even tried to tackle or anything. Like they didn't believe they could stop him without fouling.

[Shakez 755]

Was funny seeïng Hazard beïng angry at Drogba. He was in the zone in the first 20 mins, sadly Drogba stepped in at the wrong time .

[Madmax 9,219]

The pundit here said the Fabregas foul in the buildup to our goal could've been a red. No words.

[TheOneChan95 225]

I don't miss Cahill's backing off at all. I thought he cut that out of his game already.

Jose should forbid the players from watching Arsenal games/highlights. That was Gooner-esque defending.

Fabregas finishing has been terrible so far, if he could be better at those situations he would become a better Lampard

fabregas will never be better than lampard

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

fabregas will never be better than lampard

I know I mean this season, to be even compared to Lampard he needs to score over 150 goals and rack up more than 100 assists by the time he leaves Chelsea.

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

I don't remember Matic hunting the ball so aggressively last year. He seems to get out of position so often this year. Ramires is aggressive by nature. You aren't changing that, but not sure why Matic has become so keen to press so much higher.

[zolayes 14,489]

was that Drogba or Torres
