No way we are getting out of this group now. Can't lose to Zagreb and draw at home to Salzburg. It means we must beat Milan both home and away, it's not going to happen, not with this group.

Maybe we show up the best against the best of them, after all we lost to the weakest team but now played a draw.

Same sh*t continues. Really strange selection right from the start. Bringing Pulisic on when you really should be chasing...

Yes he is less of a liability when further forward.

Note the role his lack of pace played in their goal. Honestly if we want to stop conceding goals there is an easy answer.

- It's like Ziyech gets paid to play badly on purpose, how is this mug a professional footballer?

- Azpi should never play for us again unless every defender we have is out injured 

- Awful from Thiago for the goal

- Havertz should be sold for scrap wood 

- Mount should still be at Derby

Intensity…why did we take going level to get a head of steam?

Some of our players need a real kick up the behind. Far too many players are coasting

Broja did well in his cameo but needs to be clinical 

Sterling played well for an hour, took his goal well

Azpi sleeping for their goal, we did though again get caught out badly on the break

Europa League maybe our best chance next year of competing with the upper echelons …we are heading there 

We are such a frustrating team. Devoid of quality in the final 3rd, always liable to make a mistake at the back. 

Good goal by Sterling, but we were very poor after that. 

Wouldve been nice to see some sort of new manager bounce, and drawing against a team of kids from Austria is not a good start. 

Pretty sick of Chelsea at the moment, not enjoyable to watch. 

On a side note, this might be a touch controversial, but for how good Thiago Silva has been at times this season, I think he has been culpable for a few goals this year, and moving forward, I would be using him rotationally, and Azpi would be nowhere near the team.

Offense, passing, movement was better, but another poor mistake at the back. 

Yep, that was how I saw too. A comedy of errors for their goal starting from just inside the halfway line.

So there we have it - 25% of shots on target and probably 20% of those came in the last 10 mins.   While it's understandable that things were not going to click straight away, 'Harry' did not pick his best 11 for a game that was a MUST WIN FFS.  'Harry' - this is not a league game over 38 games - it only 6 and we've already fucekd one of them up....maybe someone needs to tell him.   God help us against AC in a few weeks 😳

People will react poorly because of the result, but if Silva makes that challenge it's a win and everyone's suddenly much more optimistic.

I thought the performance was pretty good considering the limited time Potter's had with the players. Mount playing something closer to his preferred position looked much improved. The intensity was higher, and we reacted well to conceding the equaliser. 

Also RLC bullying their fullback when he came on brought back memories of his games in RW for us before the injury, was fun to see that again.

So yeah, not the result anyone wanted but for me there was positives to be taken from it.

Yet when Kovacic was sidelined, many on here thought we were missing him big-time. Can you fathom it.........................

Generally a good player, but tonight very rusty and looked off the pace, lack of game time with the recent injury.  

Every one of us fans on this forum and social media identified and called out that Silva and Azpi havent got legs to play at the back together….and thats exactly how we conceded. How can a manager on £10mill a year not see that? Ffs.
