I’m not sure he’s really performed all that well anyway, Kepa. Not saying he’s poor like, just look at De Gea’s first year, but from what I’ve seen Chelsea are better off with a big Willy at the back.

The thing is, just his presence in the squad/training is valuable as Lascelles knows Rafa wouldn’t hesitate to drop him if his form dipped, therefore I would argue Lascelles upturn in form is in part due to the presence of the more than conpotent Fernandez ready to step in. Does feel harsh on Fede but this is what happens when you actually have a squad and being the pro he is he’ll know that all too well.

Beautiful pass to Ritchie for our second goal.

I've been thinking the same. Think he may come in for Almiron. I've also been thinking, with Rondon getting 90 tonight and perhaps needing protected (hopefully not), that we might go with a front 3 of Perez, Atsu and Kenedy and try use pace on the counter similar to what we've done away from home before. Stoke last year comes to mind.

Thats like proper fancy and stuff. Few wins and I'm using my spare time making bloody banners for match threads on photoshop Must be back in love with the club again.

Aye, he done some really good things I thought. Solid throughout. Also occupied that same position Yedlin does for Lejeune's diagonal which is becoming an important part of our play.

Born to do it. Loves a cloob. Any cloob, it matters not. As long as he's at a cloob.

DJ Rafa.

Really good game again Really glad he's looking back to his best.

Just hope we can keep the unbeaten run going tbh, a low scoring draw would do just fine for me. Confidence should be sky high though. Wonder if Rondon/Almiron will start again.

Fuck is Tarkowski playing at like? Hope the EDL turn on him.

:lol:

Crouch is a hazard Like when a owldie should take a new driving test.

Get Almiron, Rondon & Longstaff off imo. Protect the 3 of them to play a part at the weekend.

And yet, Lejeune is better. Nah Agree with Triggs, Schar is better on the ball, certainly better at carrying it and his delicately weighted balls forward are brilliant. Lejeune does have the Shelvey-esque diagonal on him though. We're blessed, essentially.

Fair play, didn't realise he was so handy with the sewing needle. Respect.

He can be best mates with Ritchie then and they can bond over their hatred.

Lejeune man, just class. Commentator nursing a semi.

I've been silently hoping for the return of the 'me watching Isaac Hayden' under big bobblehead G.Crooks.

Pretty sure Almiron has started drifting out of position just to get a touch

Tarkowski reckons he's Fabian Schar... give owa son.

Ritchie got lucky just before like. He's actually having a decent game apart from not passing to the best player on the pitch. Surely Rafa or the coaches have to say something to him about it? It's blatantly obvious now like.
