Did anyone else at first think Adam had seen Hazard go down and therefore gone to kick it back to Courtois?

I've given him a lot of stick this season, but fair play to Willian he was absolutely everywhere, won the ball for the winner and looked much better in the middle.

Am I the only one who really rates him, considering how good he is for his age? Yes, he isn't the most physical but neither is Hazard and he's still added a lot to his defensive workrate this year. For anything below £30m i'd be heavily tempted to go for him, definitely over Douglas Costa and Walcott.

Thank f**k my skygo messed up about 10 seconds before Hull's first :/

This could be a ridiculous idea, but what about moving Ivanovic to RM? Azpilicueta could go back to his natural right back from where he could stretch the play more, as could Luis returning to LB. Ivan likes to get forward, has more shooting opportunities, will defend as well and can still be an aerial presence.

Same team, but I'd give Cuadrado a shot over Willian.

Bump. With the benefit of hindsight, I can't believe we would rather play Willian/Oscar than him, would love to somehow get him back and have him play with a shield of Matic/???

Ask the stewards, explain to them that the two of you are here with legitimate tickets and such and then if about 5 minutes after kick-off they might move you if there's some empty seats available where you want to go.

Normal Service Is Resumed

Do we have a recall clause at all? With Oscar going off the boil, I wouldn't say no to a front 3 of: Willian/Hazard/Salah against smaller teams.

Genuinely curious as to how those giving abuse to black fans can then warp their twisted logic to cheer on our hugely diverse squad. Would they reject our CL win due to Drogba's instrumental role? Dumb f**ks either way and I would love to see Terry or Mourinho before our next home game call them out and ask them to leave the stadium.

Our goal was a handball by Zouma, but Dier should have been off

Oscar for Ramires at ht please

Absolute carbon copy of the Matic incident.

That's probably why Gerrard fell over, Scousers nicked his tyre spikes.

Good news, hopefully we can further pump up our finances

Posted on Instagram that he's working on his coaching badges with the under-15's, always thought Frank would be the one to end up on the coaching staff...whilst it is to early to say, how do we think he'll do as a backroom member?

Still hasn't recovered from his broken thumb

Courtois said on Facebook that he's not playing because of his thumb.

The shooting issue does puzzle me as well, like how Willian about twice a year can pull off a sensational strike like against Watford yet be so inept in front of goal 95% of the time.

Hypothetically, who here would sell Hazard to help fund this deal?

Fair play to the Sporting fans who were brilliant, absolutely roaring before kickoff...loved my first time in the Matthew Harding, the lower tier was absolutely buzzing...just hope that the Chelsea fan in block 14? with Shaw on his shirt didn't buy that because of a certain United left back!

Whilst I agree that he's under performed this season, I've got a real soft spot for him. I love his directness and off the ball movement and understand why I think he said Lampard was his favourite player growing up. Whilst Willian is technically better, I personally prefer Schurrle just for his goal threat and think he has a far higher ceiling-just watch him for Germany!
