closed Newcastle 0-2 Chelsea

[kellzfresh 7,229]

Good win after a tricky international break.

Werner should have scored a couple but he didn't let his misses put him down. He kept running, pushing, being involved till he assisted, shame his goal in the end was offside.

Abraham did well being a presence in the middle. 

Mount, Kovacic, chillwell, james, Rudiger and Ziyech were all okay performance wise.

Kante was the man of the match, making tackles and interceptions everywhere. Zouma was a close second.

Mendy was a calm presence in goal, which is great to see.

We need to maintain momentum as our next 5 premier league games are tougher ones. Lamps will have to rotate much more to cope with the festive period

If your serious not sure how you cannot see it. If sarcasm, haha. 

His lay offs and hold up play looks much better than last season.

On another note we should look at Darlow as the next back up keeper if he keeps this up, looks a complete keeper.

Either him or McCarthy at Southampton. Two GKs who are more than capable I feel, would be very good number 2s. 

 

damn two posts one after each other :)))) fs

Make your way to the Giroud thread and I’ll let you decide

The most easiest thing which could had happened was we would have drop the levels & maybe draw or lose the game specially when everyone is going ga-ga about Chelsea plus add to it the international break & key players missing. But hats off to the team, they managed to maintain the momentum and it was a very professional performance. Some hits & misses obviously but 3 points and clean sheet, cant ask for more. Kante is returning to his peak, he is again becoming a nuisance for the opposition and Zouma has started growing in confidence which is heartening to see. 

Hope we carry on the momentum in the upcoming fixtures as well. Well played, blues.

No Frank, we do not release DVD's for being top of the table for a few minutes.

There are other clubs in London that love to do that.

Tammy for sure deserves to start in the league on current form.

But I hope Frank starts Giroud in some of the midweek games, especially in the one coming up again Rennes. 

You need keep squad members match fit and performance sharp, because you never know when you will need them.
