Thank goodness for Pedro, hazard and costa coming into form.

Fabregas terrible and Terry is becoming very slow. Ivan another problem

Dont think we were poor there.

 

37 mins with 10 men, and had 3/4 chances to seal the game.

 

Some fundamental issues...but they will be sorted.

1 win 1 loss 1 draw 2 red cards 1 penalty given 7 goals conceded 5 goals scored

That was so tense it was unreal. Best part of 40 minutes on tenterhooks.

for who doh

unfit untested baba?

Unfit?

You do realise he started the season so is fit?

Thank f*** for that. The positive is that, wholely due to Pedro, our attack has finally started working. We still need to sort out our defense, which is currently disastrous, and midfield, with Matic and Fabregas well off form.

one of the scariest games post 2000 I've had to endure, my head is effing killing

COME ON CHELSEA

Pedro was just superb. What a player.

 

But we're after Stones and Pogba for a reason.

for who doh

 

unfit untested baba?

Yes.

Can't beat a nice easy Sunday afternoon win.

Rondons dive was a discrace. He really fooled JT there.

Terry will be back. That was never a red.

Thought that Zouma was quietly solid. It's easy to forget he's still young.

Yes.

Nah

You pay over £20 million for a player you won't play because Ivan was good last season....

So glad we got the 3 points but I'm still seriously angry I've not won my bet that was highly likely before the sending off. Oh well we won thankfully!

Some positives to be drawn from this, Pedro was class and looks like he'll work hard with it, 3 points and worse scenario is we're only five off top spot.

 

Defense needs sorting and with Matic not quite on it the Fabregas/Matic pairing exagerates the defensive woes.

 

Will we see the new LB come in while JT is suspended and a move for Ivan to CB? still leaves the CB pairing a bit short on pace but with a quick wingback either side...

2 games with 10 men and 4 points - not bad at all.

Be nice to get one! [emoji23]

Ivan is finished as a right back. Fab should play as a no 10 or not at all IMO.

Sky have given Pedro MOTM

Let's face it. We were awful for most of that match. Fabregas,Hazard & Ivanovic not doing it.

We've got some tough matches coming up, this win was crucial. 

Sky have given Pedro MOTM

Rightfully so IMO, absolutely class player

We've got Arsenal in three weeks

Let's face it. We were awful for most of that match. Fabregas,Hazard & Ivanovic not doing it.

While many of our players were not at it we could have scored 5 or 6 on another day
