referees a nice bloke !

We lack quality in the striker position. We should be 2-0 up ... Now we're being given a taste of our own medicine when we used to play like that the previous seasons in big games ...

No foul on Haz there? 

Kepa!!!

Perhaps Alonso will make the break...

Do not like this new kante position. What is it?

seems to me we can make a 1000 passes and go nowhere in this game.....same problem, dominate the pass % and space and then fall flat on our faces in the final 3rd and then get caught on the break....we've seen it so many times.  Hope Sarri sorts it out soon.  

I prefer it when WH are coming into it more, I think we have a better chance of breaking them when it opens up.

Morata gets stick so giroud should aswel,its like playing with 10 men out there,he has done nothing

We're not doing anything with our possession

I fear we might fall for the spainish syndrome : 2000 passes and 87 % ball possession and getting caught on the break ...

Kante is not having his best game so far

We need a f**kin striker. Rinse and repeat rinse and repeat

the here, there and everywhere position.....probably will be called the 'butterfly' 

The difference is Play the to Giroud and he gives a pass back or holds the ball up and brings players in

So our only thought in the final third is to ping it as hard as we possibly can at girouds feet.

i agree. But he's not helped by the fact that willian has been subpar so far ...

The plight of CFC this season ... Better play with Hazard upfront then !

No Pedro and little prep time due to weather in Greece I suspect.

I think this is the first time I’ve seen Kante giving a less than 7 performance. Im confident he’ll turn that into an 8 before the end of the match.

These c**ts are always ready for us........we must be better and sharper.

Need to get round the back of the back 3, Alonso overlapping down the left is best chance.

it's just so pedestrian....maybe just jet lag or something

This isn't a good game to watch, it's very dull.

Willian is over hitting and misplacing so many passes

involved in 3 goals in his last 1 and a half games, get a grip !

Yarmolenko scored a brace in his last game, he’s still not very good.
