Seriously?

Yes. It's an OG now. Anyhow, Michy played a part on it. His activity made it happen.

Great start to the Champions League season, couldn't ask for much more really.

Tom's half-time summary:
Michy's hold up play is terrible, he lacks footballing intelligence.
Christensen is faster than I expected, very technically minded, I love him.
Zappacosta, terrific goal.
Pedro, nice goal but hasn't really wowed me.
Willian is a lil greedy.
Cahill goes into too many ridiculous challenges.
I have a feeling Alonso will score.
And finally,
Steve McManaman has possibly the most irritating voice in Football. 

What do I know anyway? 

Roma 0-0 Ateltico FT

Pogba hurt for Man United. Not sure how bad. Not cheering for injuries.

Praise the psychic. 

Job done.

Solid outing against to be honest poor opposition. Able to rest a few and get a result which is great. 

Only issue is that Musonda should have been on the bench. Perfect opportunity to integrate and give him 30mins once the game was won.

I am, I hope he broke his face dabbing. 

good win. glad to see hazard starting to show signs of fitness, not alot came off for him, but it will take a while. 

Bigger tests to come. 

Rather enjoyed that.

wahhheeeey 

@TomCFC85 I wish Alonso did score, I have him in CL Fantasy Football. :(

Good result from Rome too - 0-0

Perfect start to life in CL. Hazard is still a ways off. Other than that good work all around. 

I'm not sure why it is but teams tend to turn their game up at the 75min+ against us. 

We're f**king back.

 

Also 0-0 in the other game in our group. I fancy us to top this group, neither Roma or Atletico impress me too much tbh.

Fantastic game to start our CL campaign. The boys looked good, the performance was great and the result was impressing. We still have a lot of things to work on, but we looked good and it's important! 

Happy with our start, next station is Arsenal! 

COME ON CHELS!!!!

Courtois got the assist for Zappa's goal

Steve McManaman "Those defensive mistakes are noteworthy, against Roma or Atletico, that would've been a goal, Chelsea need to improve in that regard"
Do you reckon it had anything to do with the fact that we're playing against Eastern European Farmers, Steve? 

Huge result for us given the draw in the other match. Goal difference may make a difference in this group's outcome.

Conte likes to play it safe. I agree with you however

That's what I was saying when everyone was saying Haz back after the international breaks, you won't get a full power haz until early December. He stops and starts so much it puts strain on his ankles, it's impossible he wont hessitate on his bad ankle.

Good win, the opposition didn't have much sting nor defensive savvy but we got the three points, some nice goals and some minutes for players still bedding in, can't ask for much more!

Willian was the standout for me, looked the most dangerous of our attackers throughout and he was unlucky not to get on the scoresheet. 

And Zappacosta's goal was a bad cross all day long, but another promising shift from him, very energetic and hopefully the confidence boost will help him settle in.

Boost with the Roma Altetico game ending a draw too, this could be a very tight group. Great feeling to be back!

 

Just what's needed.

 

Enjoy playing the Europa league Arsenal - we're right on it.
