Way too many substitutions, it's ruining the flow of the game. I can't wait to see the back of it.

True but at least it means we’re able to rest key players which is a massive bonus for us. The longer we can keep players fresh, the better.

That daft red card has killed this game for me. What a stupid rule. The games is over and both teams know it.

I know what your saying is true, they need to change it back, but if you go in for the ball like that with both arms raised your asking for trouble at the moment, all the players know it, i remember Terry, Cahill, Luiz all making efforts to keep their arms behind them, thats the safest way.

Maybe if he’d got a few more minutes he would be a bit sharper?

Stop being so understanding, that has no place in a match thread.

That was back in the era where these pens would be given 10% of the time. It used to annoy me a bit that they restrict their mobility for no real benefit.

Damn it feels so good that when the opposition shoots you feel like the keeper is actually going to save it as opposed to let it fly past them every time.

Zouma just did it right then.

And you remember when all the commentators were all " what are they doing? You're supposed to be making yourself big"

Lol yeah when it was Kepa and the player winds up a shot I'm like UH OHHH

For a minute I had hoped 3-1 would see me climbing up from my 28,105th place (took a serious tumble from 12,something after Burnley), but nooooo....

Do we have predictions for other comp. games and not just the PL?

Chelsea do one on the app. It’s a blatant rip off of the original and best one.

The club's app has a prediction game for all competitions. Don't know about this forum, though.

Another game, another clean sheet. 5 goal difference from Sevilla, a draw away and we top the group and hopefully we get an easier opposition in the first knockout matchup.

Ahh ok makes more sense now, I think I'll just stick to the shed end predictions. I suck on one stage, I don't want to double my sucky-ness

Players taking the piss with these tricks, not really trying to score a 4th

What a cross, Giroud has to be hitting the target at least there, that’s two big chances he’s missed since coming on. 

great cross Callum, should of been an assist right at the end.

Giroud's making Tammy look good here ?

Well pleased. 3-O home win.

And another clean sheet?

Not sure any of the subs made much of  case for a starting position ... at least it all helps Frank realise what his best team is ...

Probably because he doesn't get any minutes though

Sevilla beat Krasnodar 3-2 with 10 men
