Chelsea v Aston Villa Match Thread

[Hillbilly]

Digne making a play to be the most French person ever with all the shrugs and hand gestures.

[N'ZMAV]

Clueless bastard.

on the whole, much better from us that previous away performances.

[PaulTheVillan]

Ref is a fucking dildo

[Steve67]

Sterling elbows Digne in the nose, claret is evident, but Digne gets booked?  Er, ok!!

[Pete3206]

Ref having a mare here

[Martyn Smith]

It’s mad that they have three 100 million quid players on the field. And Gallagher.

Fuck knows what Boely and Poch have done to that club...

[Smirker]

Pleased with that so far. If it were a boxing fight we'd be winning on points.

[CT]

I see the shirts were sopping wet in under 20 minutes.

[Rigadon]

WE keep getting done by the long ball over on our left flank.  They have to find a way to stop that ball

[Nev]

Watkins and McGinn are miles off it, the defence are giving me palpitations and we've adopted a terrible habit of giving the ball away cheaply. Could be ahead though, we're just not clicking really. Seen better but seen much worse.

[Steve67]

Been a decent game.  Both sides have dominated at spells but we've definitely had the two better chances with their keeper making two excellent saves. 

[N'ZMAV]

great efforts by Digne and Zaniolo

[JUAN PABLO]

Get ramsay and the wild one on soon please


Zaniolo is getting better

[Monty]

Zaniolo our best player on the ball but imperfect given his role, we need to get it to him further forward and facing goal somehow. Maybe switching sides? Ramsey on for McGinn and going left?

Kamara's showed up, but we still have these spells where we stop pressing the ball yet push up and give the opposition a chance to get in behind. Cash in particular is sloppy and Torres just isn't fast enough to make up for the lack of pressure up front.

Need to change something. Shape? Personnel? I don't know, but something's off.

Incident at the end there, no complaints, Digne commits the professional foul and in the ensuing scrummage cops one.
