We done well considering we were playing against 12.
Ref was fucking appalling.

Come on - Son was begging for a penalty with such a ridiculous challenge in the box nowhere near the ball.

Just feeling disappointed tbh.
The reality is that at the crunch this was another test we failed to pass. You can say we were a bit unlucky and were the better side, but the game was always going to be in that pattern of us dominating the ball with Chelsea soaking up pressure and looking to counter attack. We didn't create a huge amount despite our laudable huff and puff, and then defensively we made errors on all the goals (even that worldie from Matic) - today of all days, the biggest of games, to look shaky at the back. Errors and moments where we lacked concentration got brutally punished, and we have to learn from them.
We've got an immediate opportunity to put things right, and, wherever we end up finishing ultimately, finish the season strongly. Got to pick ourselves up and keep going.

I dont think he was really poor. Was a strange sub. Why sub vic off and leave us short in the middle of the park. At least n'koudou tried to run at moses. Son was fucking pathetic in comparision

Andy Townsend looks like a fat homeless person these days.

Look we made a couple of silly errors and they took their chances. We've still got the best first eleven and the League ain't lost yet.

Just watched the game.
Initial reaction is I'm pretty disgusted. I'm sure over time I'll reflect better on it but we have such a good defensive record and then when it matters we go to pot.
First we give away a cheap free-kick and Its a goal. Then the penalty I couldn't believe my eyes when Son slid in. Finally we get 10 corners and nothing, they get one and get a simple goal.
We were the better side for most of the game but what's it worth if the other side finds its so easy to score against you. Did they even have a shot on target from open play until their 3rd goal?
I'm fed up of seeing us fold in the big games and this is the hardest i have taken a defeat in a long time. Feels like same old.
Lots of factors going against us in this game but hard to deny the fact that ultimately, again, we did this to ourselves.

Ya, Eriksen and Alli just don't measure up, do they.
They are fine, it's the third option who we need.

Proper gutted. Made 200 quid today on the footy and would have happily pissed it away for a win.

The annoying thing was that both our goals were just majestic. Chelsea didn't give us anything. 3 of the goals we conceded were very disappointing from our perspective.
That's the big game know-how we lack, I suppose.
IMO we just have to keep plugging away and it will come on. There's no glass ceiling or hoodoo. We can't believe in that rubbish.

Jenas you beauty. So upset he can't string a sentence together! A bit like me. if Luiz and others had received their deserved cards things might have been different but hey ho who cares. Chelsea don't count, so defeats against them don't count either.

Matic had the grace to point out that it was a tough game against us and hazard couldnt mention our name.
I hope man city smash them in the final.
