Awful get bakayoko off drinkwater on

Side pass, side pass, side pass, attack breaks down. That has been us for a fair few games now.

I'm shocked people are surprised we've not been much better than these type of performances all year. Crazy how we have a Drinkwater who has played regularly with Kante but isn't given the chance to shine. Kante supreme athlete in midfield who plays the DM type position beautifully cant play another midfielder with attacking limitations alongside him. Antonie, come on sir. Loftus- Cheek would be a breathe of fresh air in this squad.

this is like watching paint dry......I hope the 2nd half is better than this. It might be understandable if Brighton had 11 behind the ball but they don't

if we were a little more sh*t teams would maybe try and play when they come to the Bridge - for most of these sides, keeping a clean sheet against us is all they are trying to do

it's one of the frustrations of the modern game

do you use acestream

i've tried about 20 different streams, only one is kinda working but is lagging a bit and stops every 30 seconds or so to reset. it could be my area, i am semi rural and streams are always a bit sh*t for me. i have gotten good streams before, if it many people are using the internet local to me it can slow down the internet. frustrating. 

Instead of rolling around on the floor, Morata should get on with it and contribute to our attack. We needed him there. There is no way that challenge on him hurt him.

Can't wait for performances like this against Barcelona 

I could bet my house we'd be sitting deep against them if we were to play them in a week or a fortnight !!

Its is easy to park the bus against us when we play 7 defenders with hazard Morata and fab meant to do majic

Our season summed up in one sentence

"And incredibly, it misses everyone" 

Manu Loosing 2-0 

Gona take huge stick for this but hazard does so much to do nothing at all, turns left turns right,turns back on himself, end product is terrible, someone like salah, gets the ball and immediately runs forwards,always looks dangerous

Morata is such a pussy, needs to grow a set

Burnley 2 up ...f**k how important is this game now...

This is what happens when the players around him don't move for him. When he is on the ball, they just stand and watch him. He can't beat 5 players on his own every chance he gets.

Really poor first half from us, so so easy for Brighton. Time to ditch this formation, it's not working against defensive teams.

Exactly. Playing 3 at the back means your 2 players in midfield need to have a bit of everything. Your wing backs also need to be producing quality with their final ball every time. 

I think if teams want to sit back we should move to a 4-2-4, this fortation worked well for big games like Atletico, but for teams that sit back it's useless

no conviction and uninspired. i feel like this kind of toothless display has become a new standard for us

pretty grim stuff; I'd sell Bakayoko in January the guy hasn't a footballing brain.

Chelsea is the least entertaining team in this league. What a terrible performance. Why the hell do we need so much secure in match like this against opponent like this. Why are we playing Bakayoko, they cannot harm us in any way... 3 midfielders against these bunch of scrubs.... Antonio, please, grow your balls back!!!

Scoring is an issue as of late 

Bakayoko is useless. Bring on Pedro or Willy. Rudiger is better being Baka than Baka himself. 4-1 at this point is fantasy. Brighton came here to park it. Lets just nick a goal and win.

What a half of football.

My favorite part was when the players walked off the field at half time.
