Chelsea vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[KevinGage]

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".

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

I only saw the last 15 minutes plus added time, but I thought Ekoku was OK. Jackie Oatley was awful though.

She's just a shit Jonathan Pearce knock off.

The original wasn't much cop to begin with.

Word for Diaby who celebrates his teammates goals properly, like if he'd scored it.

It always good to see, especially from your new record signing.

He did it last week too when Bailey scored. You can see it on the "all angles" video on YouTube. Everyone else runs after Bailey but he's on his knees behind the goal fist pumping like mad at the fans.

Especially when he's not having the best of games himself.

I had to mute the excited female commentator , dear me… was she a competition winner?

As for the game, very similar to lots of wins last season. Controlled large parts if it, but rode our luck at times. Then a clinical break and finish. Three home games to win now.

Yeah, I saw that too and it's been noticeable at other teams.

There's clearly no sign if being aloof or thinking he's better then everyone else, despite actually being clearly better than everyone else.

Does that mean we’ve got to listen to her on MOTD later?

[AV84]

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino, speaking to BBC Sport: "I am not frustrated, just disappointed. I think we were the better team until the red card.

"The team has given everything, we need to keep working. To play with 10 men is always difficult but the team worked hard.

"We need to change the situation, the only way I know we can change the situation is by working really hard.

"We are confident in the way we perform. The only thing we are missing is scoring. If we keep working hard we will change."

Drugs are bad, m'kay.

He sounds exactly like the other managers of bottom of the table teams. Good for him for being realistic. If they can take points off then other relegation teams they'll probably be alright this season.

Her gender was pretty obvious during the game. We'd have known who you were talking about without the added info in your post. Unless, obviously, you have a habit of pointing out that Richard Keys is a male twat.

Great win

Sorry for slagging  Watkins off for 70 minutes in the thread .

Having a few beers in Birmingham for the night to celebrate,  even paying bacchus bar prices and not weeathersperms.

Kamara was great .
Mcginn was off it .
Emi saved us a few times .
Loving zaniolo
Good to see JJ and hope moreno ain't too bad

Now for another beer

How much more solid do we look when Bouba plays well? Also good signs with the number of offsides - suggests the defence is getting the line right now.

Not difficult getting the line right against brainless Sterling, would have been punished by anybody else

Thanks. I reckon Emi won that for us.

Agreed and that is why he is the best in the world currently

Except we did the same thing last season, had a few games where it wasn't right and we conceded a few then we worked it out and had one of the best defences in the league for the last 12-13games.
