James and Pulisic have done well in attack. 

Abraham is the worst choice against this defence, he shouldn't be starting on current form.

So frustrating this, knowing full well Sheffield United can just soak up our toothless attacks with a 2 goal cushion.

Tactical hiding from Chris Wilder here to Lampard.

Woeful 45 minutes. 

Our best chance = long range shot by a 20 y/o RB. And still nobody there for the easy tap in.

You could easily justify being the first team in a competitive game to make five changes at half time. Unfortunately we can't change Barkley, Jorghino and Mount as we don't  have three options on the bench. If we did I'd be minded to do so. All three awful. Surely one of them will be hooked.   Not a lot of point changing a centre half as they are all as dodgy as each other. Was it last week Zouma was now first choice? Now he is utter gash again. Could maybe bring on Alonso and put Azpilicueta into centre.  There really isn't anything surprising about this. We are bloody fortunate to have got the points we have since football returned as we haven't looked convincing in any of the games bar a spell of the City game.   If we end up not qualifying for the CL, especially if City ban not overturned, don't be so sure Lampard will be on charge next season. Abramovich is spending again and he might not be willing to give it to a manager who seems to be struggling tactically. I doubt the Chelsea ties will buy him much grace.     

That was a quick 45 mins ,is it a quick 45 mins due to how sh*te the whole team is playing or is it just me ? 

Not a single a player for chelsea played well that half

If Lampard thought the first half against Leicester was bad, then he must be fuming with us today. We have been dogsh*t.

Worst performance of all actors on the pitch of this season. Tammy is so useless and our defence is a total failure. Will be interesting what Frank is doing 2nd half. 

Tammy loses every ball and is 2nd to every challenge. What is wrong with him

Pulisic is our only offensive outlet who actually tries and gave a sh*t and he's the youngest and newest to the Prem out of all of the offensive players. Wtf??

I swear if Sheffield put 3 past us I'm going to go nuts.

that was depressing.. apart from Ross.. both the mids have tried absolutely nothing apart from side ways... willian has been dreadfull.. along with Tammy.. Reece is just not ready for this level..

Think Lampard needs to have a serious look at half time.

I think it's more that we are being outclassed by a better team

You mean a better  manager; can't convince me Sheff Utd have better players.

Man we thought we were sh*t against Leicester, that was a whole new level of crappiness.

i hope u mean out of the football club she is too soft to play defence in the premiership . I swear the only reason he plays is because he is homegrown

we desperately need new strong defender to replacee him

We are beaten with a simple ball over the top and a cross with a team comfortable sitting deep and not even pressing outside their own half. It's textbook long ball football

I dont disagree but If it's all so simple why is it our management team haven't the faintest idea how to cope with it. If this is football in it's most basic form then surely these coaches are trained how to defend against it when they do their badges

Really poor from us. With this kind of performances we do not deserve any CL next season. 

Shameful half by Chelsea. Bad selection by Frank as well, he's shown his tactical naivity and inexperience. Lots of players noy worthy of wearing the Chelsewla shirt 

Mount and Abraham off first. I wouldn’t even let them watch the second half after that performance. Home to bed and not allowed on Netflix or Fifa. 
 

The defence is always dreadful so that’s not entirely surprising.

We need to get one call back quickly 

not at this rate, playing this slow and going nowhere when we do have the ball.....shocking first half display.  No excuses today, the team and the manager haven't shown up for a crucial game.  Season will peter out to a 5th or 6th place finish at best. 

Even this Berge kid is looking good against us and he barely does anything

Utter sh*te from every single one of them. Christensen and Willian being the worst!

Have we every won a game after being behind 2 nil at half time in the last 2 years?
