Shocking starting selection but then we got ourselves in front and for 20 minutes Bailey looked good. But after that, Chelsea took control. We tried to play on the break a bit having opened the game up but you need your forwards to take the chances created. It is utter insanity that Watkins continues to play when we have a very good option in Abraham. He misses 4 good chances and couldn’t even look along the line to stay onside when he had all that space. As a discussion, it’s almost pointless now because he will start again in the next fixture and do the same. So, when people moan about Emery not having resources, let’s look at how he uses those he has.
Konsa was utterly woeful and Martinez drops another decisive clanger.
But the biggest criticism is for the manager. Shocking selection and then shocking game management. Bringing on Bogarde to play right back?!?! If you want someone to try to lock down Garnacho, Lindelof who knows him and either put him or Konsa at right back.
Luiz off when he was decent?
Starting Buendia?!
No Abraham until about 15 minutes left?
No matter how phenomenal he’s been for us (and he has) he has utterly utterly and completely shat the bed this second half of the season.
And yet again another massive occasion that we gave blown. This team has little big game mentality and consistently prove this point.
