That must of been the 4th or 5th cross from Chilwell to Havertz, i cant decide who's fault it is, Chilwell for not finding the perfect cross, or Kai for not finding the right position.

Both depending on which cross.

Havertz has somehow managed to miss the perfect crosses but at the same time Chilly was all alone and somehow got his criss blocked by Tyler Adams.

Can we not just re register JT. At 42 he’d be a massive upgrade on KK

a few boos as we go off

I can't get my head around what is going on out there - we just can't score 

Standard stuff, have a bit of energy for first 20 minutes then we run out of ideas and let the opposition obtain control. 
 

We simply cannot score and I fear we won’t in the next 45 minutes either 

Why aren't we working our way higher up the pitch? All we do is lump the ball in from deep. Havertz is not the kind of guy to score a diver header, but he's good around the 5 yard box with lower crosses. 

Sterling has been useless since he signed for us, gets the ball, takes 10 touches, then loses it. 

Wonder if we can hold out for a 0-0

Villa beating palace so currently 11th....

I said it last month when we were 6 points clear of them but I can't see us finishing above Villa in any of the next 5 years without a change at the club.

You're never going to back a Potter team to finish above an Unai Emery side.

Pretty huge gulf between the managers.

Based on Potter's previous HT team talks, I expect a Leeds goal pretty soon after kick-off.

Havertz. No winger or full back is going to get every cross right, but when that good one comes in, the striker has to be all over it. There were at least 2 crosses Chilwell put in that Havertz could have done better with, but he lacks the hunger to get on them.

I think we’ll lose this if we don’t score early 2nd half. Potter has to go.

Just dipping our toe in the bottom half.

No idea how he is starting over Trev when we are playing a back 3 ffs 

What did the club pay all that money on Havertz for? Seriously. I am confused what he offers this time for the money paid for him. Bought him for almost £80m and he's not close to being a game changer.

I've eaten a bag of mixed nuts. Wrong choice?

Yes. Ice cream for the second half please. 

Is this really a Chelsea team?

Or is it a Championship club pretending to be Chelsea? I really can't tell.

Good 15 minutes.

okay 15 minutes.

poor 15 minutes.

Ended the half being out played at home to side with a manager that has been there under a week. 

Finishing is dreadful as always.

0-0, or a defeat because we dont look like we will score if we played all night.

That’s the future France CB Pairing we have, he’s a top talent he will come good 

Maybe one of them. Badiashile came in and looks 10 times the player Fofana is.

You set the bar too high.

Kovacic looks absolutely done now. Which I think is the main reason our play has deteriorated.

Absolute joke he is wearing the captain armband, absolute joke.

I've never seen a team struggle this much to put the ball in the back of the net.

It all feels too familiar at the moment. We start well and press the opposition and have some opportunities which we're unable to convert.

Over time, the players begin to become deflated and the opposition works their way into the game and eventually topples us.

It really feels like we just need a goal as a circuit breaker more than anything else. Players are having a go, but are not getting reward for effort.

Time for the potter inspirational half time talk 

oh wait …………

On the plus side, we haven't conceded a goal after 9 seconds today LOL

Nothing. He offers nothing. He doesn’t even know how to play a one two! It’s actually like playing with 10

Once again, started well for first 30 mins didn't get a goal and performance dropped off for the rest of the half

Hazard for £30m+ was a bargain. 

Kante for £30m+ was a bargain. 

Fabregas for £30m+ was a bargain

Costa for £30m+ was a bargain. 

What bargains have we bought since those players?
