Hes doing ok, if he can lift it a bit when he gets it on the edge of there box where he has a couple times and not managed to be effective we can put this game to bedGood work all round so far. We've been tactically spot on. This is a proper team performance with everyone executing our gameplan.
Now if we can only sustain this and find a 2nd goal to give us some breathing spaceCome on boys DON'T SIT BACKGreat first half, every single one of the players out there have given it their everything. Even Fellaini has been very goodNow please don't Jose it in the 2nd half
Same again. No negative holding on bullshit. We can turn a corner todaySo far I am very impressed. Worried about what happens when Herrera gets booked. I'd put Young on Hazard probablyWhat a first half! Liking this system with 2 up front. Imagine how much more lethal we would be with better wingers.Funny thing is we have Zlatan and Mkhitaryan on the bench yet I'm not sure if I want to disrupt what we've got so far.
How is that even possible.Best half of football this season. Non in terms of beauty but in terms of performance.Good half. But Costa though?Wish we had more shots on goal with sun being directly in Begovic's eyes.Now the biased pundits will ever acknowledge the master class? Or say chelsea were sloppy?It's only half time but I may have to eat my words, I don't know how but this is working.Very good 1st half, we've made the league leaders look average so farYou don't just feel dirty, you are dirty.
Looks like I'm being punished.
He's had a very good first halfFinally something proper against top team. Please JM just dont turn full chicken shit and coward in 2nd half.With this attacking lineup, Martial's exclusion from the bench can hardly be explained.We've played them well. The pace we have in attacking areas has served us superbly. We're pressing Chelsea's buttons, while Ander and the back four have marshalled their forwards excellently. Keep it going second half boys.Great first half but the game is not done yet . I still have fears of us setting back in second half.
He runs into traffic pointlessly when a simple pass to switch flanks would sufficeImagine if we do win this...what a great morale booster going into our important second leg at home against Anderlecht on Thursday.Jose has got our tactics bang on the first half. Will be interesting to see how Chelsea change it for the second.
Wish we had gotten that second goal, because I think we'll really be in a fight after the break. Can seriously see Costa getting sent off though.Much prefer us when we're like this... nasty, cynical, aggressive.
This is a José performance.I love how aggressive we've been. Herrera, Pogba & Fellaini winning almost every 2nd ball. Rashford has been absolutely brilliant. Should Costa have been sent off? Anyway I like that we're getting him all heated up. Really interesting one that Herrera's role. Not leaving Hazard even to show for the ball when attacking. So far, so good.
He's done well. We need to create more openings (and fecking well take them!) but yes he's set us up well and the players are performing their roles with aplomb.Pogba needs to play better as usual.Good finishing and ruthfull nature would have sent us 3-0 up
This. Chelsea won't give up. I just hope we won't turn crap in the 2nd like vs Anderlecht.
It's arguably our most cohesive attacking performance all season. The only thing we're lacking is big names. The ability is there.
Good tactics make a whole lot of difference.
Young doesn't seem that fit.key difference is proper officiating to what we endured in teh FA Cup.
all the diving and cheating by Chelsea players is not being bought.
Costa is a turd btw.So I like many was completely wrong. Our best half this season. Hope we keep it up and win this game.Got to the pub late.
Can anyone explain what system we're playing?
Seems like Darmian is playing a DM role? Quite well too.
What...what?Delighted with the first half but have a feeling conte will treat them appart at half time and change the tactics completely.Always good to be reminded, including myself here, that no individuals should be bigger than the team and you've got to be pragmatic and pick the best team and tactics for the job. Chelsea really struggled with our two pacey forwards pressing. Keep it up.Just like the Arsenal game, in complete control. Just hope we don't let it slide at the end. I can't stand Ashley Young, I can't believe he's playing ahead of Martial.- Status
