Outrageous ... Jim will probably add another £5 to Simplymo's running tally for that !

Apologies - I forgot you were on the hook for that as well 🙂

Nope I am keeping Jim honest to his rules, only PL games count.

Awwww, what a sweet spin to it!

Yeah Jorgensen was sloppy 

Shades of Barrow.

So who we going to face in the 4th round?

Villa away?

Good win

All pretty straight forward.  Clearly Jorgensen did his chances of first team action  no favours and i think it was also a reality check for anyone who thinks Guiu is remotely ready to play football at a Premier League level. He looked lost for 90 minutes today.

You can certainly see why Maresca has been playing Sanchez and Jackson as his nailed on first choice starters.

I'd still like to see more of Guiu having said that, but I suspect now that we might look for a decent loan for him. Like Chukky, he needs to be playing every week at a decent level.

28 shots on goal and the front three have managed just 3 of them LOL. 1 each for Guiu, Sancho and George. 0 for Neto.

Abysmal ...probably see more of that on Tuesday

I was one of those and am now suitably chastened.

You've always been a giver.

Didn't watch the game bit just watched the highlights on Youtube. 

Who looked good, who looked bad?

Tough game on Tuesday...won't be easy against a decent Bournemouth side

They are missing key players so I think it will be a bit easier than when we played them earlier in the season.

Here’s hoping anyway

Not our best game but job done against a very limited side. No major issues with anyone's performance for me but as others have said, George and Giui are not ready for the big leagues, and I think Veiga needs to understand the level expected of a Chelsea first team player - too relaxed and sloppy. Something's not right with Nkunku but he hasn't done himself favours when playing in the A team.

 

I'll take a scrappy win against Bournemouth right now if offered.

Did Reece go off injured at Half-time or is he ok?

Both James and Lavia’s substitutions were pre planned. 

Disasi and Veiga are a disaster. And Gusto not much better.,

It might have been the opposition and players being abit sloppy BUT…I didn’t think it was brilliant. First half especially felt like a repeat of the Everton and Fulham games (I.e. start well, fail to finish). Even Morcambe created a couple of half chances. 
 

We’ll need to be a lot better on Tuesday. 

Game showed we need a back up for Cucurella - without him we're lost.

We have it. Chilwell. They are just forcing him out of the club instead of using him.

Tosin and Felix were the more consistent players. James put in some really nice crosses in the first half. Cucurella and Sancho took our game up a level when they came on.

Jorgensen, Disasi, Veiga, Neto, I would say these 4 were the only ones that had a bad game. George struggled again too, but managed to pick up the easiest two assists he will ever get. Nkunku and Guiu were largely suffocated out of the game, but I wouldn't call their performance bad.
