Yes, three points! And that's about it, some good spells but we've suffered way too much against a not that good team. We need to improve

Good result away from home. Conceding the goal at the end was annoying but overall, we defended brilliantly. Moses dealt with Carroll the best of the lot. Hazard and Kante were brilliant also.

Next up, United in the F.A cup.

Wins a win but that goal at the end was infuriating.

With these kind of performances we are marching to the title. We are pretty strong everywhere on the pitch.

Nice touch give a goal little, bit of hope. 

Last time I saw a stadium so empty is when we had already won the league at old Trafford .... hilarious from the pickey's 

tibo looked pissed as feck lol

Got dammit that goal is annoying you can see how frustrating Tobi was ruined his clean sheet dammit

Common sense is you can at least bring a forward on. Who says you drop your top scorer? Why do people come out with such rubbish.

Why? We were winning 2-0, do we need a goal? Matic on to solidify the centre of the park, Zouma on to counter the long ball approach West Ham were taking & Willian on as Hazard had a problem with his hamstring.

 

Conte made the perfect substituations, to say otherwise is just clutching for something to moan about.

3 points but so close to a clean sheet too. Still keeping that gap. Happy with the win. I'm always nervous against this lot.

He was you wanted his clean sheet

I agree...infuriating (especially for Courtios) but I'll take it every time.

 

11 games to go...10 points ahead :)

Yet another match where we're leading and Zouma comes on to "close out" the game and we lose the clean sheet. Lad isn't ready.

Overall we were in complete control. But that late goal conceded was just stupid thank god it didn't come earlier otherwise we could have been in trouble.

 

thank god. 3 points! And on we go

Good Clean sheet

Not 

3 points is vital at this stage. Hazard and kante were great, we were good defensively. Overall job done.

Important win, but I'm not that confident after that game. I really hope we will improve our speed game, attacking game and will kill teams once again.

Anyways, we played a very good defensive football, Hazard and Kante were brilliant. Let's hope we will continue in that winning way with some improvements.

COME ON CHELS!!!

Good performance and another potential banana skin out of our way.

I don't get why everyone was so afraid of Caroll on beforehand...did feck all.

Not really, it's a common theme all season to say Batman never plays. He doesn't play. To say why would you drop Costa is being way over the top. No one expects that but some people would expect a few mins for a 30m plus forward signed in the summer. No point in him turning up.

he just switched to a 352. Hazard is a second striker and we have bodies in midfield. Pretty smart if u ask me

I never said it was not smart. I am just saying that it limits are chances on the counter. it is playing safe but also I like the idea of having 2 wingers on the pitch when a team is attacking you because it increases your chances of killing teams on the counter. Like I said, small gripe but just wish sometimes he would swap winger for winger rather than a DM/CM for a winger.

That was completely Azpilicueta's fault, not Zouma's.

Zouma had no mistakes today, I think he came very good. 

Not a perfect performance but in the end it's the three points that count. Kante was MOTM in my opinion.

I don't blame him. We haven't kept a clean sheet for a while now and have conceded 5 sloppy goals against Liverpool, Arsenal, Burnley, Swansea and now West Ham. 3 of those goals have happened either at the end of the half, or the end of the game. We aren't staying concentrated for 90+ minutes.

Thought this would be a fight. It was for the first 30 minutes or so.

Really, really good win. This one goes a long way to winning the title.

London is Blue!

Come on you Chelsea!! 

Against Arsenal and West Ham we've conceded dumb last minute goals when the game was basically over.

Doesn't much detract from an important win against potentially tricky opposition but it is annoying.
