We could be leading 0-3 with a better RW. He makes nice runs, which is what is to be expected of him. He does leave something to be desired.

The thing about this system we are playing is that even when it's not clicking for us in the final third we're still incredibly difficult to break down. I don't think we weren't clicking on the third. We've created some nice chances, we just weren't sharp, but after 20 or 30 minutes we were dominating, including in attack. Also, I think it's a good scenario we handled here. We didn't start playing well, let alone scoring - as in all the previous matches and we still we managed the finish ahead in the break.

Eidur the Spider 4,515 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 What's standing out to me like a sore thumb is how much improved Diego Costa's link-up play has been, my days he's really looking the complete striker, and that instinctive strikers finish just capped that off. Good stuff from him, top player. - Hazard has been okay in spurts but he seems to be bottling a few challenges, hopefully its just rust from the International break, he's opened them up a few times though so promising! - Kante is awesome, seriously awesome. - The gaps left behind by the wide players is a worry on the quick counter from Boro. Careful lads! - The transition from defence to attack is so good right now, the wing backs have so much room, we need to get to them quicker at times though especially down the left with Alonso. Nervy game but I like what I see, especially from Diego, just don't let the crowd back into it now. UP THE CHELS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf, the fact that they are just refusing to mark Moses has certainly helped Not take anything away from how much we managed to improve during the half. Still, I think we can find a couple of more gears, especially in our passing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea Buzz 487 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Rusty from the break, sure, but seemed to be shaking it off as the game progresses. Come on lads and go for the throat and finish this off early. Come on you Chelsea!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,958 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Boro did it at City, equalized in the final minutes. We cannot let that happen. Luckily, Conte is not defending a tiny lead but he is going for a killer instead. Come on boys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guddy6969 201 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=330438.640 "Chelsea are very functional" " Boro will score one, question is how many Chelsea can score. " " chelsea look sloppy. A good team would do them today. " " More worried about Man City than this lot, if one of Hazard or Costa doesn't turn up or gets injured they're fucked. I'll give them credit for beating Southampton but the other games have been kind on them and they were always going to do United with Mourinho coming back. " etc etc... :0) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DYC. 7,542 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 That wasn't good but it's to be expected after an international break so I'm not even upset. At least it looks like that chastity belt is still in top shape. Costa, I love you and your beautiful beard. Keep playing your football and don't worry about anything else. Goal should open Boro up. I'm thinking another goal and a clean sheet for a 0-2 win. Kante is a funny player on the ball. His technique isn't great but he's calm and he knows his limitations. Won't try anything fancy and give the ball away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAM09 7,056 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 We have a lead that we probably deserve, but haven't been great on the whole. Pedro's final ball lets him down far too often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quickpassnmove 924 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 nice that we're winning again, but as a season goes, I feel we need more from that LWB position and a little more from CM (the non-Kante position). positions where we need more: LWB, CM, RW and that CB we haven't yet gotten.

Kendrick 339 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Can't say I'm surprised this game going harder than it should have been on paper. It won't end 1-0, either we will be able to kill the game off or Borro are going to make our hearts beat untill the end of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
