Controlled it, only team likely to score but we also aren't likely to score if we played 180 minutes. It's chelsea a 0-0 wouldn't be the worst response but i hope ASM and Wilson can come on and do something

Last 2 league games we’ve been knackered Man, even we smashed Southampton it was a poor performance. Players Need a break now

[Klaus]

Willock looks up for it. Reckon if we do score it will come via him.

That was hand ball 

 

 

It wasn't in my opinion but Chelsea are getting every close call all over the pitch.

Bruno's been poor

 

I think he's been excellent apart from when it comes to making a meaningful forward pass. His precision where that is concerned has been off for a few weeks now tbh.

 

We're by far the better side here.

So you can't jump up with your arms despite that being a natural way to jump but you can plant your hands when sliding?

[Numbers]

Need Wood off asap, hes fucking dogshit.

[RodneyCisse]

Feels like prem have requested Chelsea stay in the hunt like.

[Pata]

Would hate the handball rule even more if that was given as a pen.

[PauloGeordio]

Eddie will figure it out

Pfft, that's a handball like. 

bar a few overhit passes he has been fine. Very classy and elegant on the ball as usual.

The intensity in that half was insane, we've played some really nice stuff, been comfortably the better team, just lacking that final finish ATM.

45 to go, can see it stepping up in the final 3rd  changes tiredness etc

Except he hasn't

Surprised how many think it was a pen like. I'd be fucking raging if that was given against us 😆 

[Miggys First Goal]

Done this a lot lately. Had a not particularly good first half only to come out and dominate the second. Hopefully the same here.

[David Edgar]

Wilson ASAP.

 

And who knows what version of ASM is available. 

[Chrisjraby]

I really don't understand the handball rule anymore

[Oregon_Geordie]

Wood offers so little like. He's too slow to show for the ball. Always on his heels.

Best team, Wilson on and we should win with a little more care with he final ball.

[tomlynnherrington]

We’d have more of the ball if we stopped giving daft free kicks away when we close them down.They’ve been shite so far with the ball so nee need to foul them,especially when in their half.BDB the stand out player that half.

He hasn't played too bad, but I reckon if Wilson started we would already be ahead.

Is that the rule nowadays? Seems well odd. I can understand a pen not given if it hits the arm in front of the body, but this stopped a cross coming in front of goal. Should be a pen really

I agree, but think it is the rule. Who bloody knows? Seems to change every week.

[Rafalove]

Wish we could swap Broja for Wood

[LiquidAK]

Been the better side but not by miles. Frustrating game in many ways but we've not looked in any danger. Wilson on at half time for a bit more mobility up front and I think we win this. No-one's played poorly, but Bruno looks a little frustrated, almost like he's trying too hard. Think the penalty miss might be weighing on him a bit.

[McCormick]

Wood makes the most obvious runs man, so easy to mark. Need Wilson on asap.

Not sure where else you would expect his hands to be when sliding in, hes just supporting his body weight.

Botman and Willock having terrific games.
