Chelsea vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[Luffbralion]

Answered some of the recent criticisms today:
Fine goal from Ollie, a win on the road, Kamara excellent, high line worked well.  Utv

[Nii Lamptey]

Kamara sitting deeper today and had his best performance of the season, Ollie off it for most of the game, but then gets a shot in the arm with a great finish and goal, defence also looking good.

Hopefully, we can get over the setback of the early season injuries and push on now.
LOVE beating this lot! UTV!

Kamara my motm, Konsa not far behind - quite the turn around from Legia.

The away fans were outstanding too, could hear them on the tv throughout the game.

Have Chelsea home fans got a no singing policy?

You'd think so...the only song I heard from them was the incredibly ironic "Your support is shit"

[SoccerHQ]

Over a billion on transfers recently and that's the shite they serve up.

35 league games, 30 points.

That's their form over 35 games? Wow they're even worse than I thought. They're legitimately a relegation fighting team.

They've won 5 league games in the whole of 2023. We won that number just in April.

Potter won three of those aswell.

[Richard E]

We’ve got so many options now. JJ coming back is a big plus.

Great response after the dreadful performance in midweek. Kamara was back to his best. I worry about Digne defensively. He got beaten easily a few times and part of it is I don't know if he's got the legs to do 90 minutes 3 times a week. We need Moreno back in the mix soon to rotate.

Clean sheet though and the scoreline probably should have been a bit wider.

Good god though, Chelsea are dreadful. After watching United yesterday (shite) too, I'm convinced we should have no fears about targeting finishing above either this season.

I wonder if Lampard is sat waiting for the call to save them again.

The commentary from the screeching Wolfs fan and Ekuko was constantly from a Chelsea perspective. Listed Chelsea injuries with an "oh, Villa have some injuries too".

Hopefully Moreno hasn't had a setback. Two unused sub games and not even on the bench today.

He'd have been ideal for that last half hour after the red and Chelsea deciding not to play an RB.

Digne had so much space but he's one that checks back when he receives the ball, Moreno much better overlapping.

[Exeter 77]

We did what we needed to today. The sending off helped especially as we never seem to get decisions like that go for us against Sky's usual suspects.

[Brazilian Villain]

6th with 4 away games and not playing particularly well. A satisfactory start to the season.

[AlexAlexCropley]

Superb response after Thursday. Konsa my motm and Ramsey back on it is a joy to see.

[rob_bridge]

I didn't see the match or even follow match thread though it seems a few who owed us a performance delivered today.

Clean sheet after shipping so many away goals this season is a massive plus. Well done Ollie for stepping up now he has more competition.

How did the other who have not delivered much Pau, Digne and Kamara do?

If we don't finish above Chelsea, we're probably in a relegation fight.

Jackie Oadley usually seems OK but today was like Chelsea TV.
