Chelsea 2-0 Servette

[cosmicway 1,333]

We could be expected to absorb that type of pressure against the likes of City, Arsenal, Bayern ...

[Special Juan 27,439]

That was horrific, this Guiu bloke is shite, KDH should be in the bomb squad and as for that performance total and utter garbage.

Thesis going to be a killer of season

Are they? Second string defence, not our starting midfield and not our main striker 

2nd half was not second string.

This was a horrid game to watch. Boring, no verve, everyone seemed confused and off. Thank God we won. We also have an away game?

Lucky is abit harsh, with better finishing could easily be 5-0 so you could call them lucky 

Have you seen the decisive mistakes we've made?

I'm not sure who Jorgensen bailed out after throwing a bad pass to an opposition player. I say lucky because we know we can't take chances (Guiu with a sitter). If the identical match were played this weekend, we would undoubtedly lose.

Did you see theirs that guiu unfortunately missed? Luck works both ways! You can’t have it both ways saying we are lucky and they were not

It was not as bad as some are making it out to be. It wasnt great, but this is the second squad and everyone is learning a new system. I think they are laying the groundwork for a good system, it is not going to be great immediately.

Second half was much better. First half was definitely as bad as people making out.

It was not good. We had a lot of people out there that have not played together.

They are a club who re probably thrilled to even have the chance of European football. The gap in terms of quality is massive, so such mistakes are to be expected from a side like them.

 Cheap cop out, they are in the same competition as us on merit and they play decent football

The first half was "Chelsea team" rather than Chelsea.
In the second half you can't blame the attackers - they scored two.
But from midfield upwards it was horror show.
The goalkeeper Jorgenson was good but the rest were not on the pitch.
I 'd like to know what "pocket Pep" is doing.

Downwards* upwards would be the forwards you said you can’t blame
