Chelsea v Villa Post Match gloat

[john2710]

Despite what the experts think, this result should come as no surprise. We need to get used to being able to compete with & beat the top teams. The club have the best manager in at least a generation & the owners will back him in the summer to improve us further.

Quite how Chelsea have spent half a billion pounds to end up without a centre forward & then play with only 1 centre half is astonishing.

I think Ollie has something of that aura about him now, he physically dominated Koulibaly today and does everyone at the minute, never looks hurried

Let’s be honest we’d be crying blue murder if that Chilwell disallowed goal had been scored by us.

Disagree. Clear foul for me.

Yeah, two hands on his lower back, you'll get pulled up for that on a Sunday morning.

Correct.  As I've said on here before, if you don't want to be pulled up for pushing, don't put your hands on your opponents back.

I dunno...I think Young anticipated contact and dived in style. If Mings was in that position or if Ash wasn't "eight stone, wet through" (still - after all these years!), I think he would have stood his ground.

Chillwell though...does he always moan as much as today? It seemed like every time we dared to tackle him, he was in the ref's ear, pissed off about it.

Legends! Haven't seen them since they sang about Leeds, falling apart (again) when we won up at Elland Road last year.

Totally agree about Martinez, Smithy. Mudryk shat himself, there's no other explanation for him taking the shot that early.

If he'd put his arm over Young's shoulder for leverage, he'd have been fine, but he put both hands on his back. As Dave confirmed from his years of refereeing, that's going to be given at any level regardless of Young's actions.

Class. As someone says in the comments, imagine getting some of them across to see a game in the Holte End.

A class act!!

Last on Match of the Day. Standard expected victory at Stamford Bridge, it seems.

Brilliant, I love those guys.

If say 50 of them were at a game then i'd definitely be in favour of drums and instruments in the ground for once.

What a great result.  We rode our luck a bit at times and probably still made a few too many errors, but we looked dangerous on the break throughout and had some very good passages of play.
