At this stage Derby had more pointsNorwich are going to beat Derby's lowest points record. They are dreadful.

They're content with that though because the 'reward' money for finishing bottom means relegation isn't really a punishment anymoreThey’re stuck in that no mans land where they’re too good for the Championship but not good enough for the Premier League. It’s like in Fifa where the world class difficulty becomes too easy but moving up to legendary is a step too far.
i got to say you got that prediction thing going for you.Starting to feel Chelsea could draw this not confident of that front 3 and Havertz needs a few chances to score..
But what doesn't compute is how Brentford are doing so much better when they went to the PL after a play off and Norwich fecking won the thing.They’re stuck in that no mans land where they’re too good for the Championship but not good enough for the Premier League.

They didn't last week against Brentford.Chelsea look great pretty much week in week out
They have their good days and bad days, struggled vs Brentford and barely laid a glove on City.Chelsea look great pretty much week in week out
Fair but I'd say 90% of the time they do.They didn't last week against Brentford.
Sure it's an exaggeration cause every team has off days. But pretty much 90% of the time they look like a well oiled machineThey have their good days and bad days, struggled vs Brentford and barely laid a glove on City.
They'll be right there when the trophies are handed out though.
Aye it’s strange but some clubs coming up just have a way of playing that catches teams off guard. Look at Sheffield United when they came up, really good first season before eventually getting found out in the second. Although Brentford seem like a really well run club and may make a better go of it than Sheffield.But what doesn't compute is how Brentford are doing so much better when they went to the PL after a play off and Norwich fecking won the thing.
It’s crazy how people don’t watch games but go with the score line or what the media says. Chelsea have had a lot of poor games this season don’t be fooled.Chelsea look great pretty much week in week out
We’ve had 2 really poor performances (City & Juve) and one poor 20-25 minutes against Brentford. So not that many.It’s crazy how people don’t watch games but go with the score line or what the media says. Chelsea have had a lot of poor games this season don’t be fooled.
Then when you are told it’s not true, you then say ok 90% of the time they play good. You are just making things up as you go. Few weeks ago Tuchel was under pressure losing back to back games.
Grass is always greener and all that.
They are very solid which helps, so even when they aren't fluid they don't give up goals but honestly as a whole this season in 12 games their attack has struggled vs City, Brentford, Liverpool, Zenit, Juve and Villa in the Carabao Cup. The Southampton game was also on a knife edge till the red card.Sure it's an exaggeration cause every team has off days. But pretty much 90% of the time they look like a well oiled machine
I like him a lot but if he can channel Lampard a little with the goal like he did today it’ll really help him and the team. He’s still so young and he’s a clever player too, so I can see him really developing in this areaReally good finish by Mason. Something he’s been quite poor at this season so far. I hope this gives him the confidence to push on again like last season.
While he’s not really set the world alight at Villa, Buendia was so vital for them last season. He wasn’t just fundamental in terms of creating chances and goals, but their general play was heavily channeled through him. Without him they not only lose his quality in terms of creating chances, but also his ability to raise the levels of those around him.What happened to Norwich in terms of their overall play?
I know they finished bottom last time but they made a good fist of a lot of matches(ala the win over City). Their lack of quality got them most weeks in the end but they had a good go at it and played excellent football. This is unrecognisable.
All three goals by Chelsea's academy youngsters!
When was the last time our academy youngsters scored 3 goals in PL?
