1st Half.
Good half where this Chelsea performance was much better and controlled than the previous game between us. We are a goal up but should have been two penalties in my opinion. Our forward players (Kane excepted) should be worked harder.
Need some dynamism to start us to be more offence, probably bring on Lamela for anyone of Eriksen or Son who have both been quiet.
Chelsea however have been dominant in our half but would have probably had a goal themselves had they played with a striker.
Good decision on Poch to pick Gazzaniga in place of Lloris just in case a penalty is awarded against us (VAR).
2nd Half
Very back to the wall stuff where we defended everything that they threw at us. We were not as formidable offensively as we had in the past but it was still a good performance by most.
Hazzard must be the most protected player in the league as both Lamela and Sanchez both won the ball off him but both earned yellow cards as he went down even though neither fouled him.
Contenders for MOTM were our defence but special mention to Gazzaniga, Sissoko but I will give Captain Kane on this occasion who literally led from the front, both in defence and going forward.
