This game has picked up where it left off in the first half. We’re being dominated by f**king Palace.

4-5-1 vs 4-3-3 ... I think we're a bit outnumbered in the middle which is why we're struggling to get any control in those areas

Energy levels have dropped and stupid passes going astray.  Look a bit ragged now, Palace's height and weight advantage beginning to pay off.

Perfect time to make subs. 

Wow palace taking a lot of injuries.

Getting nervous here

I have to say it but did that palace player laid down with a injury have a semi on 

Well glad he is ok.

We have to go to VAR for that, red card for inappropriate imagery

Need to make some changes Frank.

In theory, Palace have looked very non-threatening. Kepa not really had to do a lot but they’re playing well and largely controlling the game. 

Billy's done well this half ... good time for him to get his first Chelsea goal I reckon ?

Ruben coming on. Tammy coming on. 

Whew that could have been bad.

Frank just will not play Jorginho will he? Even though this game would suit him. Going for a bit of height with RLC instead. 

Like for like subs as well? Not really much point in that. 

Agree with the Tammy sub, Giroud is slow this half. 

Giroud with another good performance.

Wouldn't you need Barkley as the bigger guy to stay on?

Always annoys me how Barkley chews gum while he plays. 

I’ve never understood why when Kepa is as poor in the air as he is - why do we constantly leave the striker / player unmarked that stands on him. Surely he should have a defender on him to push him away from the keeper. The last thing Kepa needs is an attacker interfering him when he’s hanging the washing out at the best of times. 

Good subs .. let's see if Tammy and RLC are up for it ... they need to be better than we have seen so far since the Covid re-start

We’ve still got 3 subs left but this hame is crying out for him!

Reece goes gung-ho and Willian covers. Willian is a great player. He does this all the time. 

Willian tracking back like it's 2015
