We've improved, but still look very shaky.

So much is about belief. When we were flying last season that entire structure starting with Emi had so much confidence. I still believe it all revolves around losing Mings. His loss cannot be understated

Sigh. Overstated.

Not looking a threat at all… thankfully, either is Chelsea.

Can't believe how soft and one dimensional they are...

Just tuning in now…

Glad we didn’t my concede in the first 10 minutes.

We never look like we’ve got a clean sheet in us in away games.

I think we've let them have the ball where we're happy for them to and have grown into the game, given our away record this year that seems sensible.

As others have said wee need to get Diaby and particularly Watkins into the game more, they've both been too quiet.

Don’t know if it’s been covered earlier but for some reason Purslow’s showed up in the away end.

We'd be behind against a more in-form, goal-confident side.
