He has worked his arse off. Not sure how Bergwijn always gets a free ride
Lamela is so frustrating - he always plays the same - energetic but with rarely any end product - so many have less patience with him as opposed to Bergwijn who is relatively new.

I am hoping for a sub or two at half time.

Not sure if we need to keep one incase Dier breaks down later

Lamela (sort of) encapsulated in a couple of moments during that half - busting a gut to get back, great challenge to win the ball then runs straight at two opposition players and loses it immediately!

Love his work rate, his heart and how much he clearly cares. Really, really needs to work on decision making, releasing teammates, etc.

Son or Kane in place of Bergwijn in that half and we’d maybe have had a different story. Switch in Hojbjerg for Sissoko and I think the shape could really suit our squad.

P.S. and Lo Celso in place of Gedson too!

Fat Frank is such a whiney bastard. I honestly think he'll struggle for another "top" job if he blows his chance at Chelsea. He doesn't realise he's achieved absolutely nothing as a manager yet, so fucking unlikeable.
We'll get the rub of the green in the circumstances at some point and we'll fucking do them. Just not tonight probably i'm afraid.

lets not go all JK R
Honestly don't know how some our lot can collect their wages. Fucking embarassing first half. Men against boys. We're running around alot, but so ineffective, just chasing after blue possession about 3 yards late. We're so easy to play against. They are so comfortable. Midfield has been shite in possession, and terrible out of it, non-existent. Jose needs to liven this shower up at half time. No fight, no pride, just aimless fucking running with the occasional little flick. Powder puff. There's no excuses here we have a good team out who should be chomping at the bit to impress. We are so far away from the best in the league. Depressing.

So, you saying we are missing Winks?

We also haven't had any time to formulate a proper plan other than sit back and try to counter when we can? I don't see any issue here. Oh and I'd say we have had as good chances as they have.

We've just been dominated at our own ground by an average Chelsea team. They're there for the taking but we're playing way too defensively. There's absolutely zero fight on show, which is what Jose said they would do.

Arguably the one position we needed in early doors the most, and during one of the busiest periods we'll have all season, we still don't have a striker.

Won't be much point in bothering, if we get knocked out of the league cup and europa league this week...
