February 12, 20188 yr Fabregas passing the ball forward all the time and getting it to Hazard, Pedro & Giroud is what helped us massively, something we lacked with Bakayoko-Kante midfield, it was incredibly stale.
February 12, 20188 yr We actually started to press higher up the pitch late on. Confidence coming back after a really shaky start. Hopefully we can build on this.
February 12, 20188 yr Next match is Man United ... beat them and we've caught them ... beat them by enough and we would go above them ... :-)
February 12, 20188 yr Good enough. A rocky first half, but dominant second. Hazard's finishing was deadly tonight, those strikes were unstoppable.
February 12, 20188 yr Good win, just what we needed after the last couple of games. We’ll play better than we have today. I thought we looked bery comfortable in the second half. With any luck this will give the team a bit of confidence back. 3 points and a clean sheet, as good as we could have hoped for in terms of result.

Yeah you can say Kante and Cesc in a two is dangerous but at least it's a double edged sword. With Baka the sword is just pointing toward us.

February 12, 20188 yr It's official : Conte just broke the West Brom's curse !!! Edited February 12, 20188 yr by Londonisblue
February 12, 20188 yr Brilliant display from Hazard and Azpi and we looked comfortable in the second half, nice to see a win. Edited February 12, 20188 yr by Floyd25
February 12, 20188 yr Hazard been fantastic again but Dave has been outstanding, is there a better defender in PL. should have got MOM. Edited February 12, 20188 yr by Dappydoris
February 12, 20188 yr Next match is Man United ... beat them and we've caught them ... beat them by enough and we would go above them ... :-)Arguably united will be the easier game as they won't have 11 behind the ball but they have a few thugs in their midfield
February 12, 20188 yr So frustrating looking at the table...clinging on to 4th when we should be in 2nd place had we not lost to Bournemouth and Watford
February 12, 20188 yr to be fair to Alvaro, he didn't throw himself to the ground once there - maybe that's how he hurt his back and we'll see him stay on his feet under contact from now on a reasonable win - we were a little lucky with the chances they had, but 3 goals, a clean sheet and 3 points - a good night's work roll on Hull!
February 12, 20188 yr 3-0 win but not really impressive. Hazard was excellent so was Christensen. We were better than we have been even Morata played OK but we don't look back to our best. It looks like Conte still rates Cahill and I daresay we will see Bakayoko soon too.Pleased for the win but not jumping for joy.
February 12, 20188 yr The team still looks unorganized on the pitch our midfield often looks empty. But hey, we have Hazard to bail us out when our tactics are crap... seriously, without him our team is ridiculously average. If West Brom was a team that pressed us on the ball, we would've had a lot tougher game.
February 12, 20188 yr Decent result. Hard to get excited though, we still looked poor at times. I'm so sick and tired of seeing us try to pass it out from the back and either give it away, or just hoof it forward and lose the header. Hazard very good. Azpilicueta very good. We seem to have some kind of threat when we play with a striker...fancy that!
February 12, 20188 yr Happy with the win and a clean sheet but think Conte was too conservative and lacked imagination...just hope the next manager is more open to giving youth a chance...
