I thought Azpilicueta had a good game. He made a crucial block in the first half, set up Higuain's goal and played a few more decent crosses into the box, but I'm voting for Kepa. He made a mistake in the first half, but he pulled off 3 or 4 match winning saves today.

Kepa made sure we got the 3 points.

Kepa clearly.

Kepa. 2 big, big saves against Mitrovic. I thought the first one was a goal for sure. 

Kepa for me, Hazard was close, he was incredible in that first half.

 

 

Like the Gaffer said, "let's not kill the guy for a misunderstanding" - Good response after a crazy week for the Young Guy

I had Christensen until the final save from Kepa. Thought Christensen played great today. Kepa saved 2 points. 

It's Official

Jorginho for me. A good overall performance and the winning goal.

...and just like that all the drama from Wembley was forgotten just as the great Munkworth prophesied.

IMHO the drama was a Big misunderstanding - Side Show Bob said it - Maurizio Sarri said it, but the media & many fans wanted to use this moment to pile on the crisis mode topic - I believe the EFL Cup Final was the Biggest Match Kepa has played to date in his career & wanted to finish the match out in the PKs, which is a Keeper's time to shine - I believe Don Maurizio felt Kepa was injured & even said as much in his post match press conference - IMHO Kepa got fined for not listening to the gaffer but for feinting injury - There was no reason to do this & his actions mislead Don Maurizio's tactics - like Don Maurizio said, "no reason to kill Kepa". I would've understood if Wily C started today, but Kepa saved Chelsea's bacon today with his wonderful saves - I just want Chelsea to continue the momentum that was started last week & strive to complete the season on a high note

Kepa Arrizabalaga for me.

What a difference a week makes eh !
