Surely Chelsea bring back Conor next season to compete for a midfield spot. He is far too good to let go. I will get ripped for this but he reminds me of a young KDB, seems to be always scoring or creating key chances.

Today's icing on the cake, if we even need it, is that Burnley's win means Leeds are now in the bottom three :-) 

Great result that. We normally struggle at St James Park. 

England giving the Aussies a pumping so far in the cricket too. Could end up a great day. 

Heard connor was amazing aswell! The work that Jody / Bath have done .. they have given us at least 2-3 50-75 mil players apart from Tammy / Guehi/ Tomori!! Plus livraminto and muisala..

5 offensive players out injured, away to a team who just wanted to park the bus and go for a 0-0. Yet we win 3-0.

We must be sh*t, How someone please remind me how many points we are behind the media darlings and that great attacking force who are Liverpool.

It is the same tune as the we have got super frankie lampard song. I heard the Timo in attack but didnt quite get who was in the back

Thiago I think?

James Chelsea’s saviour at the aptly named St James.

SandCastle fell apart but in general they suck.

Still no conceded goals from open play!

Total goals conceded in EPL 3.  

Next lowest is Man City at 6.

The 5.30 game is a beauty. If United lose we are happy if Tottenham lose we are also happy 

A draw will be a good result...

Chelsea win, city lose at home to Connor Gallagher FC and Liverpool draw… solid solid 3 o’clock slot of matches I must say!

Barkley and Ruben being unable to find a new home this summer is coming to our benefit now.

They'd be good players to bring on with a fully fit squad let alone one ripped to shreds by injuries.

Idk why but today's win feels so much better than the Norwich 7-0 for me

Probably because Liverpool and City dropped points.

A far better second half performance...just shows what happens when you can be bothered to shoot!

Jorgi had a good game throughout, one of the few in a pedestrian first half (I'm turning into Gol)

Rudiger played some delightful balls through the lines in the second half

CHO was decent , I do wish he would cut in sometimes and unleash a shot 

Reece shows our forwards how to strike a ball

Top of the league

For me Barkley is much better than ziyech and RLC should be starting a fair share.

They bring physicality, technique, goal threat and intuitive positional knowledge of how to play in midfield. 

You could put Chalobah behind them as DM and have a pretty good midfield for a 4-3-3, and save the £100m on Rice LOL

For me it’s relief because it looked like a really frustrating game for a long time 

 

Scorers all over the pitch,easy peasy.....UP THE CHELS !

We aren't favourites for the title. We look mediocre against a mediocre team. 

This aged well

If only Paul Scholes had a brain he would AGREE

To make the day better Gallagher had an assist and a goal, double win for the Chels

 

Haha f**k me that was some miss from Ziyech:
