Atleast guys on Bein saying it was a dive. Nothing from the British media, saying there was soft contact. My arse. It was a clear dive.

Will the refs be suspended next week for their performance in this game then? Or does it only apply when United are playing?
Will the dive be splashed over the paper for 3 days and the media frenzy over it.

Not a hope

Been following Sky's live feed on their website, not even a mention of a dive. And they got a fecking quote from Mike Dean saying that it was a "clear penalty". Useless cnuts.

Brighton are such a good team. How can their style of play hit suddenly yet we struggle.

Brighton are really looking for a seat an the big boys table. Perhaps at Chelsea's expense if they aren't careful.

Slight tactical tweak from Brighton, with them sitting deeper than first half...allowing Wolves to come more forward and wrecking them on counter. Wolves are done.

They’ve spent a good few years, since coming into the league, building their squad towards a certain style of play and signing players and managers that fit into that style of play. We haphazardly buy whoever the current manager wants without any thought put into building a cohesive style.

Most likely at our expense because we aren’t very good whereas Chelsea have a lot of room for improvement.

Will be us if we are not careful. That performance against Wolves just took out a lot of hope/excitement I had for this season.

Wolves shape is nowhere near what it was last week and just allowing Brighton to cut through them in 2 passes and transition the shit out of them for the 3rd goal.
