Melanicus 5,208 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Our best performance in a long time. We were just so good, Leicester didn't have a chance. Hats off to Conte and players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essien19 1,415 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Brilliant game, Leicester could have scored one, but overall Chelsea ran the show. Kanté is the buy of the season so far. Conte is very good for Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,958 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 The first half was nearly perfect. Such a shame we switched off in the second half and let them play. I don't want to think what all could have happened, had Luiz's sliding tackle ended up in the net, not the post. Anyway, fully deserved points, a lot of positives to build on, some aspects to work on and Diego is available for the Man United game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 6,585 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 I was worried that Costa would get a yellow card. Good thing he didn't get one as it would have been a blunder that could have been prevented by taking him out of the game. In fact I didn't understand the spat that Costa had with Conte there about substitution.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beepu 1,714 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 What a great game: - Costa scored. Hazard scored. - Kante beastin as usual, played some really nice passes as well. Looks like a genuine decent guy. - The kids played. Chalobah's assist is the stuff of dreams. - Costa available against united. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
communicate 2,703 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Really good performance. Tons of positives but one small negative from me especially on the 2nd half when leciester attacked us on our left side, it is our weaker since basically we had hazard, matic and cahill whereas on the side we have azpi,kante and pedro. Maybe against a better team a 3 man midfield with chalobah is required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Funny thing is, there was still a fair number of players on the pitch for us that lacked the overall quality needed going forward and despite that we still played like we did, 9 games under Conte and I have been engourached by six of them. You can only imagine how good we will be when Antonio gets more of his players and upgrades on Cahill, Moses, Matic and Pedro. The only slight concern is the counter attack, getting caught lm the counter while winning is one of footballs biggest sins, happened vs Bristol and Swansea and was happening today until Nate came on to shore things up, which could be a problem against United. Over than that couldn't be happier with today, and three academy lads of the bench to boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 How solid was Luiz today btw? To be honest, since he's joined we've had some bad team performances but individually he's been pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosmicway 1,333 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Leicester looked like last year's Chelsea. Still, a solid performance and handsome win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, since he's joined we've had some bad team performances but individually he's been pretty good. Hit his own woodwork (tbf Vardy was right behind him, already in the perfect spot, most likely that would have been a goal). Overall Luiz looked solid to me, Vardy didn't get a sniff! Commanded the back line and didn't shout when his teammates caused an unnecessary dead ball. Inspired the level of confidence and his build up from the back is pretty good. At least in this game, Conte seemed to have found the perfect setup to play to his strengths. It's better to have Luiz in the line-up than not. So, good business from the club, still a football club, not all about the money. EDIT: Rhetorical question, my bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, since he's joined we've had some bad team performances but individually he's been pretty good. Yeah, it's the players around him. For all the "Playstation" talk you could see him organizing players in the build up. Telling Cahill and Matic where to be, or where they should of been as he was playing the ball to his second option. He got caught out in midfield once or twice and didn't get back fast enough, but overall, he's been solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,958 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 As for Luiz, did you notice in the first half that he signalized a medical problem to the bench? John Terry immediately started warming up. Good to see him finish the game and all, but hopefully it was something minor and long forgotten.
