Played quite well really. This sport is a right arsehole, sometimes. Enjoy your night, all.

Largely a good performance against the European champions. Another shocking referee. What is the officials problems with us? We’ve pretty much had this ever since we came back into the premier league.

If we’re going to progress as a club Mings has to become a bit part player. However good he can be for the majority of a game he is always prone to dropping major clangers that cost us.

Played ok, but ultimately not good enough at either end of the pitch. There’s some mitigating factors, not least being unable to select our number 1 keeper and our record signing, but we need to be more efficient. Mings and Tuanzebe need to be much better. Ramsey did really well and was a real positive.

We need to start picking up points quickly though.

You have to take your chances! The second killed us with that stupid back pass, although Strer could've shut the angle down quicker - that's where you miss Martinez!

Felt this was our most encouraging performance of the season despite the result. We put Chelsea on the backfoot repeatedly particularly in the first half.

However, got to do the same next game against Everton.

No reason why we can't.

That's why you need world class players in your team.  Promising at times, but the Mings fuck up closed the game down.

Our next major purchase must be a centre back. Mings fucks up too many times.

We just need to believe more. We have a fatalism playing at these places.

Went toe to toe for the most part and made Chelsea make changes but they have the best striker in the world.

Can't defend like that for the 1st 2 goals and expect to win any game in the Premiership. Easily the better side till half time when they took saul off and got better. Ramsey and Watkins caused them loads of problems. Mcginn was good, Ings terrible. Mings fuck-up killed the game dead. Bailey looked good imo. Weren't expecting anything, so probably more disappointed given we had them on their uppers for 45 minutes. ah well.

They won the European Cup and strengthened.  That is what you need to do.
