We better f**king come out for the second half with a lot more than we showed in that half. OK we are winning but jaysus talk about oscillating between 1st and 2nd gear. 

We could be out of sight if we had a bit more of a clinical edge but also more drive and pace when we get forward. 

Mudryk, so far, has done everything to justify Potter not selecting him.

In our last 92 mins of play we have scored four goals.

I'm all giddy and dizzy!

How Have We Played??

Felix giving the ball away on the edge of our box was pretty brain dead

Enzo is a baller.

I think we’ve played a good away game. Need to stop unraveling when giving up a goal in matches though. Also need to stop giving away away the ball like that in those areas, really stupid by Felix.

Biggest problem is midfield now. Hope Potter replaces Felix with Zakaria for the second half.

You should be going for the ice cream to seal the win. 

They are two red cards if the ref looks at the monito, no doubt, the more i see it the more convincing it is.

The quality of the refs is so poor that I have zero faith they will make the right calls

Feels like the ref is making his decisions based on compensation from previous errors in the game. Probably didn't give Leicester the penalty because he didn't give the red for the tackle on Felix and probably didn't send off Amartey because he didn't give Leicester the penalty. Overall poor officiating. 

All action half

Mariner WTF …1st min should be red

Great finish from Chilwell

Felix should have had two goals

Felix overplays and Kepa again beat from out of the box

Kepa makes some great saves as we get overrun in midfield

Another possible red

Brilliant  goal from a sublime pass

James is ill

His mother should insist he wears a hat and scarf when he goes out.

Interesting half that. Mudryk really should be subbed though I don't really want that. We should buy Evan Ferguson and put him on an 8 year contract. 

We look to have a bit of creativity about us. RLC playing well.

Who is the ref 

that amartey challenge is disgusting 

At this point, I don't think it matters who the refs are. They could easily have had 2 red cards and I am not sure how we got away with that handball.

I have to say I wad kind of robbed of the celebration of the Havertz goal because I was convinced he would be called offsides.

Glad it counted but I never got that burst of excitement from seeing a Chelsea goal.

Gotta keep Mudryk on. If we can actually get some control in midfield and get the ball to him, he can do something. We saw what he can do with the build up to the offside goal.

I'd give Felix 10 minutes to see if he gets better at both creating and defending, otherwise we need Gallagher to come on to help the midfield. Cucu also hasn't been as solid since the yellow, so I'd replace him with Badi from the get go. 

RLC has looked good as a standin WB

Enzo is so good isn't he. I guess that's why you pay the big bucks for that quality. We have missed that creativity & vision in midfield since Fabregas. Mudryk and Felix both seem like they haven't adapted to the pace of the league yet, and Mudryk is probably still not up to full fitness. I expect Potter will take him off second half. Felix has the a lot of quality, I'm sure things will come together for him. Not particularly easy when he's only on loan at the moment and new to the league. I just wish he would hit the target and score ffs. 

Great half for the neutral you'd have to say.  Be interesting to hear what the pundits think about it on MOTD tonight LOL

That assist from Enzo was very Fabregas.

And if he gives the handball, that's probably Fofana off as well

Tbf Mudryk is playing as a striker, not exactly the best way to build confidence and get him adjusted playing out position. I think he done okay with the limited touches under the circumstances.

I prefer Chalobah but I think Cucu is not a good answer at CB.  As far as I am concerned he's the 2nd choice RWB and that is about it.

Reminds me of when Conte slotted Moses in RWB. Well balanced performance for a midfielder in a wingback position.

Said it many times and I will say it again - Bundesliga, Serie A, La Liga, the French league - they use VAR the way it should be used. But in England it is an utter joke, a disgrace. Poor and biased refs refuse to use VAR as a tool to help them get better decisions, it's like they want the higher ups to get rid of VAR otherwise I can't understand how they still miss on crucial decisions even with hundreds of different camera angles they look to. Unbelievable.
