Really impressed with Ake in both positions he's played this evening. Hope he gets a look-in during some PL games soon, more than good enough!

totally agree. the loan spell have really helped him. maybe Zouma should do same

[Chelsea Buzz 487]

Much better second half!! Wolves were tough to breakdown.

Come on you Chelsea!!

[Despiadado.Maleante 1,046]

Only Ake and Willian put in acceptable performances.

Fair enough Yeboii, but Conte has to consider what is best for CFC first rather than what is good for Batshuayi. It's in our interest at this stage of the season that Costa is back scoring goals. Conte really should have given Batshuayi an opportunity earlier though. I didn't agree with the decision to play Hazard as a false 9 when Costa was suspended, even though we beat Bournemouth. 

Yeah I agree. Of course Costa is a better player than Michy at the moment. However, I just can't see how Michy is considered to be so bad that he can't play against Wolves or maybe 25 minutes against Burnley! And that game against Bournemouth!
Guess we will have to see what happens. I doubt a 30 million pound signing will agree with being basically a reserve player. Especially one of the most exciting young strikers out there.

Moses transformed into Antonio Valencia that match. Smacked about 30 crosses into the man marking him. 

[Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067]

How many times do we have to see Kante and Cesc play so well together before the this becomes a regular thing... 

Appalling performances all around bar: Ake, Cesc, Willian. 

I hope we get Milwall Away.. 

On to the next one!

He's been that way since December... Man's been skating off 4 good weeks in October, from any sort of criticism. His inability to quickly cross/hit first man is getting so very irritating. 

He needs to contribute more.

1 win to go to Wembley, 3 wins to win this thing!

[Special Juan 27,093]

Poor performance but the difference between us and the likes of Arsenal is we have a mentality, we win and grind it out, we are a complete team.

[Johnnyeye 7,405]

it was a tough game today, expected from Wolves at home, who by the way knocked out Liverpool and Stoke away from home in previous rounds, they deserved our respect, but didnt offer too much today to be honest, apart from the shot that hit the post early in the game, thank God it didnt go in, they just sat back with 11 and waited for counter attacks which they got but were poor when given those chances, what i didnt like was the sloppiness in our passing and possesion at times, and also our lack of focus in the final third, we seemed out of focus, on another day a better team would have punished us, great finishes by Pedro and Costa, but specially Pedro´s goal which opened the scoring and lifted the team in what was a very cagey game (great cross from Willian, Moses watch and learn), and Costa wraped it all up to ease the nerves with a well taken and deserved goal, and may he go on a scoring run from here on, hopefully. Today we made it difficult for ourselves, but thank God we didnt need a replay and finished this tie today, all credit to Wolves and Lambert for what they´ve done in this FA Cup. Cheers and enjoy the weekend everyone, now on to the next game

On a side note, 2 shocks in the cup today, Burnley and Leicester knocked out.

i agree, very composed and mature display from him, he deserves to play much more, he´s a much more evolved player this time around. Cheers

[Eidur the Spider 4,515]

Moses couldn't cross a road tonight. But his workrate is undeniable.

[petre.ispirescu 4,928]

Much better second half, got the result in the end.

Nathan Ake MOTM.

It was like the Wolves left back had a target on his back and fair play play to Victor he hit it every time.. A vampire wouldn't be nervous about a cross from Moses.
