Well that was a strange match. I'm not too sure whether we were really good or Bournemouth were God damned awful. I think it was a combination of the two. They only mustered a shot on target right at the end of that match. Roma will be a much tougher nut to crack. Our one touch football was excellent at times but the end product wasn't there. We should have won 4-0. Morata is still not sharp enough after that injury. I just hope Kante is fit for the Roma game. Man Utd next in the Premiership. Mouriho will want to destroy us. If Kante is fit then he couldn't come back at a more opportune time. Another 3 points and we are still 4th which isn't bad seeing the suspensions and injuries we have had. Conte needs to pull one out of the hat for the Roma game or we will get taken to the cleaners.

We shall see.

LOL. We were shocking against Watford and only a late burst by Batman saved the day. Watford outplayed us for most of that match. Last time we looked in control was against Atletico.

Hopefully.

...................There could be trouble ahead................

This match will depend on the team Conte puts out. If Baka and Cesc play in midfield I reckon we will come under the cosh. It as easy last season here but this season could prove to be a different kettle of fish. Let's hope we get all 3 points. COME ON YOU BLUES !!!

What a rollercoaster of a game? We learnt we need Kante and Drinkwater fit asap. Baka and Fabregas are the problem. No protection of the the back three. You need steel in there and an enforcer. Neither Baka nor Fab are enforcers. If Fab plays he should play further forward. Batman saved the day and I never saw that coming. Is this the start of our comeback? We shall see.Happy for the win.

BATAMAN again !!!!!

DAVE !!!!!! Hang onto this leads FFS !!!

Batman to the rescue. How long can we hang onto this draw?

Willian coming on. LOL.

Seconds before halftime we concede. WOW. Fabregas should have buried that chance instead of trying to lob the goalkeeper and we would have been 2-0 up. Pedros goal was superb but we have looked poor. Baka keeps losiing possession and giving ball away. We don't look good and I worry how this will turn out in the end.

Fabregas in midfield yet again. WHY ???????

I forgot to mention that we have another crap referee today. Jonathan Moss is usually a nightmare of a ref.

Well, things are not looking good at the Bridge. It's been a combination of crap referees, bad luck, injuries and bonkers lineups, tactics and substitutions from Conte. He looks stressed out of his mind and Stamford Bridge is not a happy place to be at the moment. Then we have the Fabregas debacle. We have only won one game when Fabregas has started in midfield in the premiership and that was against Everton. If I picked up on that ages ago then why hasn't Conte? Fabregas is poor defending and is the weak link in midfield. Today he will likely start so I'm not that confident of our chances.Our squad isn't strong enough to compete on all fronts and Conte knows this. The board have really let him down.Bakayoko looked flimsy on Wednesday night. He was brushed of the ball far too easily and kept on losing possession. The only midfielder with passion was Luiz who played like a man possessed. He wasn't happy when he was subbed and stormed off down the tunnel. We then went from 2-1 up, to 3-2 down. LOL. Zapacosta is a bit better going forward than Moses but nowhere near as good at defending and that's why Dave got a complete roasting. He had no protection. Alonso and Cahill did better on the other flank. Add Storm Brian into the mix and this could be a difficult afternoon. Watford are in form at the moment and must be favourites. The only bright side to the Roma game was we didn't lose and Hazard scored twice. Him and Morata need to step up to the plate and save our season. Pedro to play today alongside Hazard and Morata. That will give WAtford pllenty to think about. Fingers crossed we get all three points today. COME ON YOU BLUES !!!

We were lucky to escape with a draw. Conte is stressed and is beginning to make stupid mistakes. Our two best players were Hazard and Luiz......so what does Conte do? He takes them both off and leaves Fabregas on. Cesc did sweet FA. I despair for this team. Conte isn't making things easy with his team selections and tactics but we have'nt got a deep enough squad to challenge on all fronts. Roma wer ll over us and a number of players did'nt cover themselves in glory. Things are not looking good at the Bridge.

Don't like this lineup. Fabregas in midfield and cahill at the back. Where is Rudiger? He knows Roma inside out. Another poor team selection by Conte. Let's hope we don't lose.

You do realise that Morata will start this game? Also count the number of players in your formation.......it adds up to 12 players.

Another must win match. Roma will be tough opposition and their midfield is like a steel wall. For that reason Fabregas shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the midfield. If he does play then he must play further forward. Luiz in midlield. Dave, Rudiger and Christianson at the back. Hazard, Pedro/Fabregas, Morata. upfront. Not going to be easy but it will depend on Conte's team selection and tactics which have been sadly lacking in the past two games. 3 points would be ideal. Let's hope we get them. COME ON YOU BLUES !!!

Now that's the side Conte should play. That's my selection too. Spot on Antonio.

Roma will prove harder opposition next week. Bot impressed with Conte recently.

Who else is he supposed to play? Luiz in midfield, No Willian, no Fabregas and Pedro upfront.

His team selections over past two games leave a ot to be desired
