wtf 4 subs and Havertz still there

Madueke has been probably our best player. Strange sub as usual. 

Subs are dire. We've thrown the towel in.

I'm sorry but Lamps really is utter sh*te as a manager.

Both fullbacks are made of glass in this squad

I can see both of them being sold/replaced. Too unreliable when it comes to fitness/availability ...

Ziyech better option than Felix...? FFS

Felix the feather or Ziyech the wretched, some choice.

Weird. On my stream it looked clean. It`s not in HD quality to be honest but still. Maybe different angles shown. The steam I am on is showing Discovery (whatever channel that is)

I thought so at first too but on the second watch it looked like the ball was pushed away by the outside of Solanke's right boot and Silva caught Solanke's left. Happy to be corrected - only saw it twice and my stream isn't great.

Crap news for Chilwell, was just thinking before the game that it's annoying that he's been available recently when we've been sh*t and not after November last season when we were otherwise okay. Shame not to see Hall on as his replacement.

Also for whoever was complaining about a lack of energy caused by the Sterling/RLC subs - how do you feel about Ziyech on for Madueke?

You have to actually touch a player to foul him you know, and Silva never touched him.

Is that true?

can players run steaming up to for example, the goalkeeer, chase after him with fists raised about to batter him? Not actually touch him, but make him move/flinch enough to be distracted. 

I guess not - although accept I dont know the rules on the touching thing sufficiently.  If it's allowed, we should try it!

I'm starting to wonder if all of these hamstring injuries we pick up is because of the lack of fitness in this squad. We regularly play at a slow place, and when teams put pressure on us, we can't keep up with them. Players like Chilwell, James and Kante seem to get these injuries when we do the odd sprint. 

Brings on sterling whos completely abysmal. Takes off both our wingers who actually looked decent and up for it.

But whats more shocking is instead of taking a risk and bringing on Hall, he plays its safe and brings on Azpi. Just end the season now.

Felix is the only one in this team who can carry the ball forward. has a better vision and passing. this is what we need to hold of the other team attacking us. 

Lampard might as well go ... he's doing practically nothing to help any of the younger players "develop".

If he'd rather play a past-it and wrong-footed Azpi at left back ahead of Lewis Hall I don't know what to say ... 

GEEEEEEEEEEEEEET IIIIIIIIIIIIN

We haven't even given the keeper a proper save to make. They have had better chances than us.

Well, I'll be damned.

He's also the most likely player in the squad to give the ball away that creates the Bournemouth winning goal, he has a track record at that.

very good sub appearance from ziyech so far

Badiiiiiii! 

Finally, a bit of quality.

BADDDDDDDDDDDY  

Holy moly. We scored not 1 but 2 in a game.

what a finish wow

Ziyech has been good since hes been on. The only decent sub beforehand. The rest i dont know what he was thinking.

Get in Benoit !!!!

His first Chelsea goal of many I hope !
