Chelsea vs Aston Villa Match Thread

This second half performance has been pathetic

Has it? There was one absolutely shocking mistake after which Chelsea, the best defensive team in the world, have just held us at arm's length. I mean come on, in their last game they did it to Liverpool, away, at 1-1, with ten men. 'Pathetic' might overstate things just a little.

Get ings off, utter gash today. For 30m I expect better. Just been a passenger all game

[wince]

Mings has probably made more mistakes leading directly to goals since we've been back in the Premier League than any other player. He's always, always got a match-changing fuck up in him.

...and that's precisely the reason why he shouldn't even be in our team, never mind the captain.

Let's face it, he only got the captaincy because he's a virtue signalling snowflake, much in the mould of Gareth Southgate.

Oh, ok then. Can read between the lines well enough here.

[martin o`who??]

We are now determined to make the scoreline flatter these fuckers.

The second goal has killed the team this half.

Or crossing, pressing, creatively has been awful this half. We have given up after this second it seems. Cheers tyrone

Ffs, we are sticking with five at the back to the bitter end then. I'm sure Chelsea are much more worried about the prospect of a Tuanzebe goal than they would be about the prospect of Ings scoring.

[dr.chekov]

How's that a Chelsea freekick?

[NorthYvillan]

This ref is a twat

[cdbearsfan]

Still, nice to see Traore back. I bloody love him.

[LeonW]

Good to see the referee is consistent

[Flin5tone]

Mings and Ings to be dropped next match we can't have senior players just expecting to play because of the name on their shirts you have to earn it and today they have failed the team big time!!

[Demitri_C]

Of course the shit ref gives that to Chelsea. Utter shit ref

[ChicagoLion]

This ref is a twat

given them every thing

Sometimes your opponents don't let you play well. Chelsea are easily good enough to do that, and we'd have probably found it really hard after Tuchel got into them at halftime without the second goal.
