As bad a start to a football match we have had since Pep arrived. We have offered nothing going forward at all and look edgy and nervous at the back. Not a good combo

[Sideshow Bob]

rodri thinking and moving at a fucking snails pace. I feel sorry for dias.

[PeterParker]

The usual suspects look knackered.
Very odd.

Another ref Fernandinho would be off by now

Chelsea getting out very easy our press isnt working.

Miracle fern hasnt been booked

Keown said Mount should stay down so that players get booked. The guy that literally caused a brawl at Old Trafford.

Even when we are not at our best, we are never out-passed.

Today we are being completely out-passed. We need to make some changes soon as this current line up is not winning this game.

It’s like we’re playing against 22 Chelsea players.

Mendy gave that away, thankfully laporte sorts it

[sheblue]

As expected.

Sterling is the the new Bernardo in terms of "What's happened to him?"

Ironically, as with Bernardo's Mendy Twiiter incident, you can go all the way back to the row with Gomez after the our loss to Liverpool last season that began the spiral downward.

He recovered a bit and was still creating chances for us with his movement, working hard, and had some strong games, but the scoring has never really returned and now it seems to be affecting his entire game.

Is it also the contract situation? Does he want out?

That would be sad, but I know there's a long queue of our fans dying to get rid and never taken to him even whilst being arguably one of the best at his position for a while with us before this and underrated by some of our fans even if clearly not Pep who played him almost every game.

Dean booked James then, after we’ve committed a million fouls haha
