closed Watford 1-2 Chelsea

[DDA 9,689]

Bring Ziyech, Lukaku and Jorginho on and watch a completely different half. 

[Milan 17,859]

City and Liverpool both obviously lead.

[Beigl 1,387]

This has to be one of the most pathetic midfield displays in recent times. RLC and Saul got overrun at will.

[Vesper 28,993]

Saul + RLC had the worst Chels MF half in last 3, 4 years

unbelievably rancid, outplayed by utter dregs

Commentator is right. We are getting bullied. By a team a couple of points above the bottom 3. 
 

All the talk all season about our insane squad depth. But injuries to a couple key positions and we totally collapse. If we don’t get these players back and get a LWB in January or we will struggle to finish 4th, forget about the title.

There's a number of players on the bench that should have started. Tuchel selected an XI that aren't up to scratch against a weak PL side, so he has 45 mins (ideally HT) to make amends in that regard.

agree totally Vesp

[Vesper 28,993]

RLC had a few decent games that led to another false dawn

I see nothing in last moth to change my mind we need to ship him

This reminds me of our game vs Sunderland in late 2010 missing half the first XI having to play mikel zhirkov ramires ferreira and late stage anelkalouda…

It’s obvious that RLC can be dropped in to a well oiled Chelsea side with everyone else fully fit and perform well. But he’s nowhere near good enough to be the main player who runs the game.

[Vesper 28,993]

we need to terminate Saul's loan in a month

I cannot think of another WC (and he was for sure 3 years ago or so) CMF in last 10, 15 years who, with no serious injury, just collapsed like he has at such a peak age

[Fulham Broadway 16,915]

Its like when they fucked us with Troy Deaney. Its their Cup Final v Champions of Europe

[MoroccanBlue 5,318]

It makes you appreciate what Kovacic and Kante offer. Ruben under pressure is a disaster. 

[Fulham Broadway 16,915]

TT better bring on some quality now

[MoroccanBlue 5,318]

Saul has completed 8 passes that first half. 

8.
