Honestly I don't rate Jorgi's creativity nearly as much.. I think he does not make enough of these passes.

He's essential to this team though, in our build up. He makes more passes and has more touches than anybody else per game every week for a reason. Hes not just a basic sideways pass merchant, he plays through the lines, over the top, always makes himself free to support his team mates under pressure... hes capable of that final pass from deeper and has shown at times this season he can do it. People expecting our deepest lying midfielder to create 5 chances a game again huh? So John Obi Mikel all over again.

Thought he was shit yesterday, misplaced so many passes.

Safe to say the reactions to his performance yesterday have been polarizing.

I haven't read the match day thread, is my opinion unpopular?

I haven't read through the matchday thread but from what I've seen on Twitter during the match. Some said he was excellent, some thought he was bad.

He had far from his best game, did improve in the second half, his passes were off a bit. I would rate him a 5.5 to a 6 out of ten.

The reactions are certainly contrasting. I thought he was very impressive and controlled the game. He was given MOTM also by Sky Sports. I would of given it to Luiz but thought Jorginho was very good.

The Chelsea fans who are criticising Jorginho for his performance yesterfay just don't understand football isn't all about goals and assists when playing in midfield. It doesn't take an ounce of intelligence to realise his role is to retain possession through passing until an opportunity arises.. The average football fan is pretty dumb though.

I know Jorginho isn't about goals and assists, his passing was off and lost possession too many times for my liking. Now I don't appreciate you sneakily calling me and everybody else who doesn't agree with you dumb. Are you the etalon of smart above average fans that you take the liberty to classify peoples' intelligence? I've yet to see you prove yours, let alone judge anybody else's.

I was actually refering to the Twitter brigade tbh because yes it is flooded with idiots,  hey if you want to take it as a swipe at you, be my guest. He may have lost possession but I feel he had a very good game. I don't seek to imrpess or prove to you that I am intelligent manpe... I have better things to do.

Replace midfield with wings and you can say the same about Willian. He provides energy, injects pace, and does the defensive work to keep a side balanced.

That he does indeed. The frustrations with Willians game isn't what you have mentioned because that is the positive side of Willian. Willian can't make simple passes at crucial times in the final 3rd which is vital for an attacking winger is it not? Jorginho is on his 1st season playing in a faster paced league than what he is familiar with. He is the cog in midfield to keep the ball moving which he does very well when the team are all playing in unison.

Injects pace??? Willian slows the damn game down to a snails pace with his fumbling bumbling passes and tricksy leg whips-overs.

He is a human rain delay
