Agreed, it takes 2 deflections so he has next to no time to do anything but keep it out. The defence were asleep which let him down.
Kepa get blame for our tactical and organisational defensive deficiencies all season, also lost some confidence. Abraham has never been very good technically, confidence totally gone as well now.

Interesting changes at half time, hopefully will turn around.

Post match interview going to be interesting if doesn't.

Jorginho back in and Abraham and Chelsea lack bite and penetration. The latter will come good but unless Giroud’s injured he is surely the better choice right now.

Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.

We really should be beating Chelsea next week.

They looked awful for large spells against Crystal Palace last game and they've looked even worse for most of today.
Oh we will see a different Chelsea against us.... they won't be playing like this....

Jack O'Connell is a quality footballer
Deserves a crack with England when internationals come back

Chris Wilder has performed a miracle getting his Sheffield side challenging for a EL place, especially as most us had them odds on to get relegated.

It'll be hilarious if they finish above Spurs and AFTV.

It’s how we play really. They’ve struggled all season against low block sides and with offensive creativity when playing those kind of sides. If we play an open game they’ll look more dangerous. Be interesting to see how Ole plays it. 6 month ago we would have played counter attack but he might be braver now.

Just because Frank plays him differently doesn't mean he is not. He has the skills to be box to box, but his tackling and sense of snuffing out opposing attacks is top quality!

Still think we took the wrong DM off them with Matic!
I assume the person you are quoting means Kante doesnt just sit and hold. He is the guy that goes around the pitch pressing and ideally plays next to someone who will sit.

Barkley is so overrated. He steps us for every set piece as if he is Beckham. Doesn’t do shit.

Let’s win our games first. Southampton and Palace won’t be easy. Our starting 11 is gonna be tired as feck. We need to use the squad.
