Stats 7,142 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Love to see that there was no complacency. Brilliant from the start to finish. Luis was my MOTM. Excellent in defence and attack and hopefully that is just an opening glimpse of what we will see in terms of the link-up with Hazard. Fantastic to watch. So happy Hazard got his goal from open play at the end as well. Everything was literally perfect tonight. Zouma coming in and bossing the game. Drogba getting his first goal back since joining us. As much as I like Azpi I never was overally annoyed when he got sent off against Palace with all respect as I believed this was the perfect chance for Luis to get a few games in a row and show what he is about. He certainly stepped up to the plate tonight. Hope Remy's injury is nothing serious as well. Just keep counting up all the assists Fabregas keeps making. Must be on double figures now surely? Great performance and oh, what a pass from Ake that was at the end for Hazard to score that brilliant goal.Have not been able to say this for a long while but it is a joy watching us week in, week out.

Pizy 18,917 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Hazard is simply spectacular. Utterly unplayable when he's in that form.If he can consistently play like that he'll be a Ballon d'or contender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomarse 2 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Brilliant match. Yes we got lucky with a few decisions but you make your own luck in this game. Great to see some minutes for the young guys, hope to see Solanke more in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DazLaughlan 55 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Hazard is a serious talent when he's in full flow like that. The boy is destined to be one of the greats if he can continue his progression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,958 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Jose said that he was not particularly pleased with Drogs taking the penalty, as Hazard is his first choice and the players must have discussed it on the pitch between each other.

Barbara 15,149 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Amazing performance - the opponent's quality doesn't matter when you decide to play like that from start to finish. We never sat on our lead. We looked for the goal the whole match. That's an attitude from a winning team.I would give my MOTM to Hazard - who should have scored at least a hat-trick from open play - but I went with Aké because the kid has been marvelous while in the pitch. He filled the void left by Fabregas well. He was everywhere, tackling, tracking down players, pressing and that assist to Hazard was a deserved icing on the cake.Amazing match by Luís supporting our attack. He's an entire different level compared to Azpili, but I still worry about him defensively in the EPL. He needs to toughen it up a few notches and I think he'll be quite tested comes Sunday - but hopefully we'll beat United.Great team performance, Zouma seemed more collected, nice to have Cech cup tied - which means less teams will be willing to pay for him already in January (selfish, I know, but I want to keep him). We needed this kind of performance in the UCL after two first less than convincing matches. We need to be the leader of the group by the match against Sporting. So it was a shame Schalke could find a goal at the end. At the same time, that's Roberto, and I'm just happy for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
didierforever 7,349 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 WWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW!!!! just wow!!! fantastic performance. unbelievable performance!!! we are playing some amazing, out of the world football at the moment and hope it continues.cech - good performance. dealt with everything brilliantly. saved a penalty. still world class!!!filipe - got a nice run in before the united match. is a handful going forward and defensively solid..JT - how did he score in that counter. he is 33 years old. just brilliant!!! CLL. overall performance was awesome too.zouma - good performance. no nonsense defending. and dealt with every threat very well.iva - another brilliant performance. he keeps on showing why he DESERVES to be our no.1 RB. although he played more like a RW. next up will be ANGEL. will be very interesting to see that match up.matic - awesome as usual. broke up play really well. used the ball well. poor penalty to concede though.fab - was not as influential as usual. he gets some time off before the united match. with costa and remy injured, wont be suprised if he plays up top.willian - brilliant performance. ran all thru the game. dribbling, link up play were really good. very unlucky as to not get a goal with that shot. oscar - same as willian. workrate was phenomenal.hazard - really dont have words to describe this performance. how? simply how did he do this? unbelievable performance. he was gliding/floating all over the field. the maribor defenders are going to have some sleepless nights.remy - was really good till he was on the pitch. very unlucky to get the injury and specially in the way he did.subs - DD - showed he still has something to offer. held the ball beautifully. that clip to hazard was orgasmic. and DD scoring the goal was just the best thing that could happen to me.ake - what a ball!!!! what a fucking beauty from the kid!!! even his overall performance was brilliant (though not that shot). hope he starts against shrewsbury.

Shakez 755 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Luis, Hazard and Willian had their best matches today. Luis is breath of fresh air, and a huge relief for Hazard because he offers so much in the overlap. Hazard while overthinking it a tad too much during most of the game, released his demons at the end and got a well deserved goal. Willian was our engine today, i think he saw every side of the pitch and yet it felt he could play for another hour. Unlucky that he didn't get on the scoresheet with the screamer that almost broke the goalbar, this performance will probably be forgotten by most people resulting in the status of "most underrated Chelsea player" he currently holds (does anyone really miss Schürrle?). Zouma was also solid, and to cap it all of a perfect debut for Nathan Aké! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
