half time

really enjoyed the game chelseas playing well essiens back the youngsters coped well against a proven championship team

anyone know the subs bench

[Annie.L 2]

So confused...

[Jon 18]

Why won't Sturridge pass.... ever..

[zolayes 14,489]

pleasing to see them playing in the first team style ..means they will be able to step up when needed...

[Steve 10,227]

Pretty happy with the half. The lads are holding there own which is good to see. Di Santo frustrates me still, his positioning at times is terrible.

[Annie.L 2]

Jack Cork, Conor Clifford,hope for their show

[RX8 40]

I hope Cech is Ok looks like something Happend to him....

Well this first part is a Good.... Like both Right and Left Back Bruma and Bertrand.... Sturridge our best men in from and the most Dangerous.... Matic is Ok could do better

Essien is such a Great News for the Team....He is so in to the game U can see him playing with Spirit....GREAT !!!

We just need to be more clear infrom and Score.... but it was a nice first part... we domineted and toch the ball ... So is very good, keep the Style no matter who plays

Bruma impressed me the most

[Blueboy 14]

Best first half performers for me were:

1. Sturridge; created a couple of chances for himself. On the other hand he was too eager to score himself, but that is part of his development.

2. Essien; good to see him back on the pitch, classic Essien stuff.

3. Matic; As cool as ice, he never seems to lose his head and is always available to receive a pass. His vision is also really impressive, a couple of his long passes were spot on.

4. Bertrand & Bruma; Both had good runs down the flank going forward and looked solid in the defensive aspect.

Di Santo should leave us this summer, too slow in his actions i think and didn't do anything really spectacular. Josh hasn't been that exciting, but i don't account him for that. He is only 17 years old and this was his first start for the Chelsea team ever. Definetely has the potential to be a great player! I thought Van Aanholt was a bit uncertain at the back, but i didn't expect miracles from him, he is a pure left back after all.

[kwylino 329]

Bruma very impressive today

[Kez 2,727]

Anyone see Essien hit a kid in the face with a ball during the warm up? He was bleeding from somewhere.

[sLOVEnian Blue 74]

Ithink both full backs played quite well, Matič was also pretty good in midfield and I love Sturridge who is very fast, skilfull and just need to finish something to get his confidence up. I am a little dissapointed of Mceachran who was bright at the beggining but faded away in the game, he is still very young so I don't put much pressure on him or any other young player ... If they do well it's great but even if they don't they have time on their side and just need some support from trainers and fans.

[Duppy Conqueror 1,494]

Bruma can do a job at RB certainly but would like to see him play at CB in the second half...

Bertrand has looked good...Josh looked good early on but hasnt had much of the ball since,still only 17 so has looked good all things considering....Sturridge looked good,too greedy at times..

Di Santo,looks too desperate to do something that it`s made him look pretty poor at times.

Matic,Essien & Mikel all done some nice stuff at time..still a bit rusty as is the team in general,but to be expected.

[ZanSnake 1,211]

I have missed the first half due to a lack of time watching.

I have no information about the score nor the team performance, so i will watch the second half like it is the first.
