Great initiative from Tanganga, unlucky with the touch. More of that from wide please.

Ndombele looks like he doesn’t really fancy it, I’m expecting him to find a reason to limp off in the next 20 mins of the game.

I don't think we've looked as bad as some of you are making out. Chelsea look better, but there's not that much in it. Their passing has been more incisive, but we look like we can cause them problems as well.

The pace of the game is too much for Ndombele. We really won't see the best of him until next year at least cause he needs so much time.

He's much better coming in to a game that is stretched as there is a lot of space for him to move into. When it's tight and congested he gets pulled all over the place and cause hes not up to speed he struggles.


Wont see the best of him until next year...
What cosmic event happens in 2021? Is this an ancient prophecy you are aware of.

Ndombele is down with a knock at every tackle. I’m getting really worried he can’t hack the physicality of this league

Barclay has found that he can sit easily in between our CBs and CMs and no-one will get close to him. Either a CB needs to step up permanently, Winks needs to learn quickly how to shield his defence, or we take Ndombele off and try playing with 11 men

Almost like they're a squad that has been together a while under their manager?

Getting better now. Their defense is weak whenever we can muster some high-pressure.

We need a quality DM so badly it hurts. I know January isn't the best time but we should have acted in the summer. Or the window Dembele left.

NDombele needs to offer more defensively. Not sharp enough.

although other than odd occasion sharpness has been our issue here.
