Taylor's a tosser but he's right to have not given Chelsea a pen for Enzo's lame dives.

as long as Jude and Vini are active players, they will hold the crown.
Loan back to Leicester for a small fee.
If Savinho wasn't so one-footed we'd be in more trouble. Still very much in this.
We've gotten behind Lewis once or twice but decided to cut in on the right which has allowed the defenders to stand our forwards up (similar to Savinho has gotten behind but cut back on his left again). If we can continue to do so I'd prefer if Nkunku is more central and perhaps Neto comes in on the left, so I expect an Enzo -> Neto substitution if we're still trailing around the 60th minute.

Not watching, Am I missing much the usual boring City under Pep?
So many parallels between Chelsea under Boehly and United this past decade. Enzo looked like the next star at the WC, now I think Chelsea would be better off with Gallagher in the 10.
If Caicedo and Lavia stay fit, I'd rather see Palmer in the 10 and Neto starting wide with Enzo on the bench if I was a Chelsea fan.

Don't think he's a particularly good player tbh. Fast, does get in some decent positions tbf, but profligate, lacking compusure and any finesse. Only hope for Chelsea is he's still reasonably young.
That’s what I said. Against City means for Chelsea.
Yeah seems like Taylor dislikes Chelsea like Oliver hates United
City have been really impacted by international football during preseason. Chelsea far less so
You need to reassess what you think a penalty is!
Did we get a second look at the original enzo penalty decision from sky at the break?
Foden comes on for Savinho.
He’s no world beater but 14 goals in his first Premier League season is respectable and they only payed like 30m pounds for him, so I think it will be another player they sell on a small profit after okayish but uninspiring time at Chelsea.
Chelsea a bit lucky there.
Im guessing Grealish looked shite in pre season?
Palmer is such a good player. Really pissed we let him go as a kid
Pretty sure making Palmer play with these bunch of feckwits is tantamount to some sort of mental abuse
Jackson is such a donkey.
Why's that racist playing here in the first place? FA don't care to punish him?
Didn't Maguire get booked for diving against Fulham? Makes you wonder why we are held to a higher standard.
Did we ever have him on our books?
Did we let him go or did his family just decide City's Academy was better than ours?
Can Neville lick the City arse any more?
Doku has been poor. Palmer and Nkunku are fine as 2 of your forwards, very good even, but Jackson and Enzo are not it.
Yeah you’re never gonna see that again this season even though Maguire had reason to go down
Akanji... my word. I've seen slow players before but this guy moves like he's walking in wet concrete.
I mean in PL, there were lots of dislikeable teams in rest of Europe tbf.
Maguire one had zero contact and was worse, albeit less theatrical.
Lavia, sublime
Nkunku has been poor
When the hell did they sign Neto?
For all the flaks we got for Antony, why is nobody talking about Grealish? He’s stuck on the bench despite Doku having a crap game.
Chelsea bought Neto!! Missed that.
The turnover of attackers at Chelsea is insane.

Doku has been terrible I'm surprised Pep hasn't hooked him off yet
That's not terrible for a squad player, but they've had so few options up top the last couple of years. Not a striker you're confident will score a one on one.
Not sure how Chelsea have not scored.
Jackson 
Lavia has probably been Chelsea's best player.
What? Where is all CB aside Yoro?
