The most important half of football for us this season is coming up and it's safe to say I am bricking it!

Hopefully the countless missed chances don't bite us in the ass. 

Sterling can’t be any worse in 2nd half, he was that bad. I’m sure he will play better!

Kai raising his game a bit because it’s a big game should hopefully raise his value a bit so we can cash in and sign someone who plays well in most games of a season.

Big game players is one of the things we’ve severely lacked since the old guards started to collect pensions. 
 

Havertz used correctly is world class. I’d rather he stayed while buying a striker than spending £100m in Felix

Cucu has been aggressive and on the front foot he’s been brilliant tonight

Has Sterling lost his speed? Whitout his speed he has nothing

Nope, he is still fast, he just hasn't played a lot of games of late.  His awareness is poor.

? Cucu played one of the best halves I've seen from him here.

He clearly didn’t watch the game

i noticed , he looks knackered .???? 

"Look at what Kova and Chilwell did right before the goal. That's the spirit we need! Just go on and keep the pressure on them!!!

P.S. Koulibaly looked like prime JT in first half."

Kai's play on the goal was class, great run from his own half, holds it up, takes two defenders and finds Kova

Experience but that's about it.  Granted he scored the goal but I have to think we would be better off with Mudrik at this point.  

This Is Bits Of The Cucu From Brighton Being Aggressive And Assertive

Havertz Unlucky With His Strike But Good Movement From Him, Sterling And Felix, Would Like To See Felix More Involved Though

It helps your nerves I find to remind yourself how much of chance we have at winning the CL even if we do get past Dortmund. Is helping me to enjoy this occasion more anyways  🙂

Come on we’re fcking back 

Calm doon lol. 

But seriously, been almost like one step forward a few back but I'll take a champions league run to the final and continuation with league form as is. 

Only thing is I'm not particularly superstitious but it's not lost on me our last 2 CL wins came after a managerial change in season and whilst that would mean this could be similar, GP is a bit below par to oversee that kind of run. 

RDM did it but when you have the mental strength of players like Didier, Terry, Lamps, Cech, colliding with the chapter of Chelsea that was winding down, it's almost like.... vitória é certa"... 

Mudryk has to come on 2nd half, there really isn’t a better game for him 

Hopefullly Potter doesn't put them to sleep now and the lads keep the pressure up.

The scenes if Gallagher and Zakaria come on again.

Give him a break, he's been playing 50 games a season since he was 17

You know it ... especially after Gallagher pings one in the top corner  😉

Yes, we have 0.05% chance of winning the CL playing like this.

I wish I could erase my "2012 repeat" thoughts from my brain, I know I am setting myself up for disappointment haha!

The cliche... the next goal is so important REALLY does apply here...

C'mon the Chels

Cucurella showing he has the quality to be a success. He isn’t a wing/full back in a million years but is excellent on the left side of a 3 man defence.

When Reece and Chilwell are fit we are a different team.

is that handball? 

@Valerie WTF

I wouldn't leave it too long to bring on Murdyk and Zakaria for Sterling and Kovacic 

 

Ffs Sterling completely missed that run from Felix

Pen all day that have to check it surely
