We have to stop conceding silly goals.  Fortunately, it's pre-season and we have time to iron it out.

Archer isn’t a replacement for Watkins. He doesn’t do a quarter of what Watkins does. You’ll get a better finisher but we’d have to play differently

To honest in most of these game’s defensive play has been pretty ropey.

If Ollie had been even vaguely competent today we'd be out of sight.

archer should be by now - he would have finished them

Watkin's main strength is his positioning, he's brilliant at getting himself in the right place. Few players are better but technically he's..how can I say..got lots of room for improvement.

Both breaks they have concentrated on Brentford and Thomas Frank. Disrespectful twunts.

This and the fact that the camera only bothers picking out the Chelsea fans in the stadium despite them not being on the pitch yet.

Just watching Brentford paying with their fridge magnets. Don't they have any tablets or iPads?
