closed Chelsea 1-0 Swansea

[Magic Lamps 11,446]

So lucky Swansea were even worse at crossing than we do. At some point MOrata has to put his scoring boots on. 

The centrebacks were class today tho. Especially Cahill. Credit where its due but the way he marshalled Bony limited them to no real chances.

Could have easily dropped points due to be wasteful. Kante to thank for several things

did we win?

 

3-3 at the end.

Absolutely battered them and should have won by 4. Conte knows how to play frustrating sides like these and we just keep trying alternative moves and combination's until it pays off, stark contrast to Joseball in these type of games.

3 points. Come on.

[Pizy 17,860]

Moses tried his absolute damnedest to hand Swansea a late equalizer. So extremely careless and rusty.

Morata has to quickly sort himself out in front of goal with his feet. He's actually better at getting shots on target with his head than his feet! If he was more clinical we'd have scored about 3 more today.

These games tend to come during season so it is positive we managed to win it.

BTW City did it again.

[Pizy 17,860]

I see we've scored the fewest goals amongst the top 6. Not that it matters, but it looks nasty on the table.

[Magic Lamps 11,446]

what a frustrating match. so relieved in the end. ugly goal as well from an unlikely source. 

 

yeah and give city the title already. when you get 7 mins of time added for a half with 2 goals, no red cards and no injury lay offs then you know who the refs are with.

Erm, top 6 or big 6? We've scored more than Burnley and Spurs. Have the third best defence in the league, mind you.

Yes but after we got the goal, we suddenly retreated into our shells. Could and should have gone for the kill.

Kante was everywhere on the pitch tonight

Meant top 5 

Fewest amongst the top 4 contenders.

Well, we have scored only 3 less than Arsenal and Liverpool and have conceded far less than them. 7 less than United but they were boosted by their early season form. As for City, well, never mind...

EDIT: Sad case but also gotta remember that we don't have as many goalscorers as the other sides. Our top 5 scorers in the league are Morata (8), Alonso (3), Hazard (3), Batshuayi (2) and Pedro (2). That says a lot, doesn't it?

Luiz is injured.

Conte said yesterday that Luiz has injured his knee.  He didn't know how long it would be, and he wouldn't say if it was an aggravation of the same injury from last season.

You're right guys my mistake.

I still think Luiz would have been dropped for Ampadu. Ampadu is lucky Conte has a falling out with Luiz.

It's yet another indication that we are missing that one more special attacking player. It's not as frustrating lately because we've been creating plenty of scoring chances and getting into great positions, but Pedro and Willian both blow so hot and cold. They'll score a worldy one match and then like today they'll get into great positions and fluff their lines.

We need an aggressive, clinical attacking player to play with Morata and Hazard.

Sanches was trying to pass the ball to Casper the friendly ghost 😂😂😂 we dodge a bullet trying to get him it seems like it
