Good 3 points. Not an easy place to win. Hopefully the confidence grows with the side a bit. Credit to the coach as well.

🤣

Come on Evissy, credit for what? His tactics failed again. It was a desperate snatch and grab. Take the win, but lets not pretend it has anything to do with Maresca.

Yeah Ipswich was the cut off, commentator got that wrong.

Nope.

Least he won’t have to give Liverpool a guard of honour.

Biggest derby on football, won ✅

Huge win, hopefully a catalyst for the remainder of the season. I thought the performance was quite decent.

Bummer that caicedo will miss the next two games

I thought that threshold had passed a couple of games ago.

No Caicedo for Everton and Liverpool

And totally reliant now on just moments of individual brilliance. A wins a win though.

Past the threshold I believe.

Thank f**k for that

Finally an away win! We've stolen this off Fulham.

Is it really a proper away win when we go just down the road?

It's come to something when beating Fulham is regarded as a " huge win" for Chelsea.

I thought we hadn't but maybe you're right

He was walking a tightrope but I believe the ban for 10 yellows ended the Ipswich match. I don't believe he is banned.

I put that victory down to the fans. We moaned them to victory. Keep up the good work guys.

Didn't his side win the match?'

This forum is unbearable. Sorry guys. But that is the sorry truth.

Feels like we did to Fulham what they did to us on Boxing Day. Huge win!

Exactly, goal times very close to matching up within a few minutes of the goals in that previous match amazingly, but with teams scoring reversed - general feel of the game too, but us grabbing the win this time at least!

Credit for putting on George and sticking with Neto I suppose but I’m putting that down to desperation vs tactical shift.

We were sh*t all game and both those goals came from individuality. We are fully in our right to question the managers merit on the win.

@axman2526 and others happy easter

Does my head in, it’s clearly managers tactics to only take risks and play faster in the 2nd half.

Crucial 3 points.

Need to start doing 90 minute performances if we want to make the top 5.

Oh. Not many matches are won in the first half.

Hopefully Lavia can step up.

He'll injure himself on that step.

What do you want us to do Evissy? Fake it, lie, delude ourselves?

What about that win can you honestly put down to Maresca? That he subbed off the useless Jackson for George? Okay, but he's tried these desperate subs in most games since Christmas, and they haven't paid off.

Do you want us to praise his tactics throughout the match? How can you expect us to do that when his tactics failed again? Nothing he does works, and I'm not sorry for saying this, but grabbing two late goals off two wonder strikes doesn't change that. For 82 minutes of that match, we were poor.

No doubt the owners will be thinking ‘Wow, Maresca pulled that one out of the hat, what a manager’

Count on it. Just like I expect them to give Sancho a 12-year contract because he woke up to his contract situation and delivered a couple of decent 10 minutes.
