Chelsea v Man Utd (PL) Sat 22nd Oct 2022 17:30 GMT

Silva and Chalobah were nowhere to be found at the cross that resulted in us conceding the goal though, both just surrendered there and Chilwell was alone.

Being a flaky right winger in my day, I am not the best on this, but as the ball was thrown in from their left wing shouldn't Chalobah and Silva have picked up the middle. For a back post overload shouldn't first of all Chilwell make a better attempt than his weak powder puff token of a challenge, but shouldn't one of the recovering midfielders make to the back post to support Chilwell in defending that zone.

IMO T.Silva/Chalobah were very much late there.

 
Lack of quality. The best teams don't concede late equalisers this often. We sh*t ourselves when we score and have something to defend.
Possibly even the first part of that Scott as well. With 6 minutes of injury time and 3 minutes of normal time remaining why change our approach at all. The tactics should have remained until the last 2 mins, not trying to close out for a whole 6 minutes, especially in a game where you haven't had a cohesive period of play that has lasted 6 minutes 

 
Third shi**y performance in a row. There is no way we will stay in top four. Pity.

 
Does someone have the view from directly across the goal line?  Oh, the post above mine has it, looks like 2 cm past the goal line for a legit goal

We are not going to beat any of the traditional "big 6" at home this season are we?

Last season we managed to beat Spurs but drew with United and Pool of lost to City and Arsenal. A terrible return.

Now we have draws against Spurs and United that we LET SLIP! In the dying embers and still have Pool, City and Arsenal to come.

oh dear...

 
Coming back from the game and I’m gutted for two reasons. First, we were dreadful in the first half and, although we improved in the second, we did not play very well. Second, because how on earth can we let them equalise with a couple of minutes to go? Happened against Spurs, West Ham (overturned by var), and today when Manure were crap. Can we f**king learn to kill a game?

I’m not going into players here, but will leave you with a nice image.

Good point, but for a bogus VAR call West Ham would have done it to. Our home used to be a fortress, now we are a soft touch.

 
Yeah I do not know how @Gol15can blame that on trev, Silva was closer to it and chilwell did not react as quickly as he should.

Save the Chalobah criticism for @timetowasteeh gol he is better at it;)
I'm just saying either one of our CBs needs to do something there, if you want to argue that T.Silva should have been that person I'm fine with it that's all I'm saying cause Chiwell was left alone there for no reason, even without Casemiro, Mctominay is also taller than him...
