December 9, 201510 yr Gullit in the studio happy about our progress, thinks leaving out Fabregas helped considerably :-)
December 9, 201510 yr Be nice for the fans to see a couple of kids come on, rather than the boring and predictable. We've just won the biggest game of the season so far, pretty sure the fans don't really care at this point.
December 9, 201510 yr Excellent display, very solid, some lovely interplay between the attackers, good displays from pretty much every player.
December 9, 201510 yr Such a great balanced performance by the lads. Loving football again a bit more.
December 9, 201510 yr a win against leicester would send out a message and hopefully provide some confidence.
December 9, 201510 yr Good second half performance from us, defended well and and attacked well too, good stuff. Now we need to take this performance into the league. We need to find a way to make space for our attackers. In the league we have been found out, Mourinho needs to come up with something different.
December 9, 201510 yr Really happy with that. Matic, Willian, Zouma, Hazard and Oscar all really good. Please let this actually make us kick on now. Splishsplosh must be gutted. Edited December 9, 201510 yr by Dr Gonzo
December 9, 201510 yr Roman is such a fan - just caught him saying "that's better" with a big grin on his faceHe had just agreed to put in £100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 onto a new stadium! And as long as his son takes over, we may not live to see the day Chelsea hit bankruptcy in about 150 years! (Unless we're still a large brand, then someone will buy us.)
December 9, 201510 yr a win against leicester would send out a message and hopefully provide some confidence.I think we will. Lets burst the Leichester bubble
December 9, 201510 yr I was confident before the game and very happy now having qualified top of the group. Now let's sort out the PL.
December 9, 201510 yr Good performance, although the CL is very different from the PL. We were able to counter a lot today because Porto needed to attack us all game, which opened up a lot of space, which is why we were often running at their defence or at their keeper. In the PL we will be right back to facing 8 or 9 men behind the ball and them countering us, which is where we struggle so much and end up faffing around on the edge of the box and losing it. So we'll have to see if we can translate any of that back into the PL. Edited December 9, 201510 yr by Zeta Orionis
December 9, 201510 yr Absolutely gutted I had to work and miss what sounds like the best we've played for a long long time. Any links to full highlights would be very much appreciated.
December 9, 201510 yr Porto were absolutely awful but I'll take the win and the good performance. Let's hope we can play the same against Leicester.
December 9, 201510 yr Absolutely buzzing.. very clinical performance. We are happy. Matic MOTM by a mile. He was like a wall.
December 9, 201510 yr This is what happens when Fabregas isnt in the team. Other midfields walk past fabregas..thats why other teams get so many chances. Having ramires and oscar..weve got legs..pressure from everywhere. It works, modern day football demands it. This is the way to build confidence, then the football will come. But you need solid players in there first. And I do think its taken 3 months for these players to get fully match fit. Massive oversight in preseason. Wont be making that mistake again I assure you.
