Sunderland vs Chelsea Full Match Highlights

http://goaltogoals.com/sunderland-vs-chelsea-highlights-full-match/

Wahey 10 straight wins...amazing...what I love about this run is we have ticked every box...can we win with flair? Yes...can we beat our rivals? Yes. Can we keep clean sheets? Yes. Can we win without Eden hazard? Yes. Do we have squad players ready to make an impact? Yes. Can we win when not playing our best? Yes. Can we beat teams that play with every player behind the ball? Yes...

obviously we will drop points in a game sooner rather than later, but the other sides must be worried right now.

Great win. Was close at the end.

I realise we can't play with flair each and every game. 10 in a row is outstanding. Another clean sheet to boot.

Well done team!

I think West Brom and today highlighted how much of a force we could be if we had another player on a similar level to Hazard. Slot a Sanchez or a Greizmann in for Pedro or Willian, and I think we take some of those chances.

Agreed. My mouth is watering at the prospect of it. 

Absolutely wonderful. Finishing and last ball was missing otherwise it would have been 3/4-0.

Tibo was immense. Cesc was really good. But my MOTM will be costa.

His runs, hold up play, and literally everything he did was just IMMENSE. Single handedly had all 3 of the sunderland CBs running rings around him. Just brilliant from DIEGO.

Comfortable match for us generally.. credits to cesc and thibaut.. it's a fine well drilled shot and 2 amazing saves by thibaut..

 

Alonso provided 1 good ball for costa which he wasted it with very poor volley, should have done better given his standard.. and speaking about alonso, I think he didn't do enough, he's the 1 player who's given a bye by the opposition, he had so much spaces in the game but did little to exploit it..

 

MOTM is perhaps thibaut courtouis, he didn't have a lot to do but he answered well when called in crucial moment..

A year since we lost to Leicester.

Last Year: LCFC - 35 Pts, CFC - 15 Pts

Today: CFC - 40 Pts, LCFC - 16pts

Funny how tables turn.

Thank the photographers.

Well thanks for posting them,they are superb.

 

Brilliant shots.It really shows Contes passion and what a save that was TC.

I am usually his biggest critic but what a save by Courtois, saved us the three points. Also great pictures mate

From United to LPool to Arsenal to City, they all have not double but triple if not more firepower up front compared to us. I fear we'll start to be too conersvative, believe that all we need is a group of hard working players, and that'll be our downfall. 

Jesus and I thought bola was a negative misery, he`s got nothing on this guy.

An ugly win, but a win so sod it, move on to the next one. As others have said its not like we scored from our only chance, we created plenty of opportunities but didn't take them and completely controlled the game until Courtois had to make a stunning save. So 10 from 10 with only 2 goals against, thats an incredible run and long may it continue.

Was in the cinema last night.  Fab scored just before the film started and I spent the rest of the film wondering what the score was.

When the film ended, after checking the score, the next thing I did was check who had got yellows for us.  Was so happy that Kante, Matic and Costa didn't.  (I know Matic wasn't starting but he could've come on as sub and got one).

Good away win. I'll happily take 1-0 wins against teams like Sunderland.

Two vital saves by Courtois.

And a great goal by Cesc.

Indeed , what a difference a year has made to Chelsea.

That save at the end was incredible great character win

 

More than just a game.

Priceless smile.

Also, not that I don't love the post match photos but is there any chance of these being put in their own thread? 

I find I have to scroll through masses of them to find peoples' comments and opinions on the game which is primarily what I want from these threads.
