We were terrible this game. Kept losing the ball in open places often without any real pressure. Half the players were off. Saka had one key contribution but otherwise borderline useless along with Odegaard, much like in the Spurs game. Jesus was perhaps even worse. Jorginho didnt do much the whole time he was on, and Zinny had a real stinker. Although to be fair to Zinny, Sterling is in good form I think. I was happy Chelsea took him and Palmer off. Also White had an off day for me, and we haven't even talked about Raya.
That Chelsea penalty was ridiculous. I thought there was supposed to be consideration given for a deflection? If not, then we should bring back the indirect free kick rule, because that should never be a penalty. VAR is messed up because the rules are too complex and left open for interpretation. Mudryk was beyond lucky in this one, he must have invoked the spirit of Lamps or something. A poor header and a poor cross rewarded with goals. But, we created that mess because we were losing possession so easily especially early on.
