V Chelski

On the bright side it shows how far we have come being disappointed not getting a sniff away at Chelsea.

Onways and Upwards

Also, what is with the backing off? Hourihane in particular but they were all giving Chelsea enough time to get an autograph off JT.

Put a tackle in, stop showing so much "respect" to the big teams. Leicester is going to be a tough tough task. Especially the way Harvey Barnes played tonight. Also, Vardy is in the form of his life. Going to be difficult not to captain him in FF

Wes worked his socks off, but he's isolated. The way we play and are deliberately set up is going to leave him isolated if the midfield is not getting up and around him. It's simple. We are set up to give Jack the ball! With Targett and Hourihane running off him,that's the shape we choose, and that's why he is isolated, we only have eleven players on the pitch. We were a bit flat last night, Mcginn has not been at his best for a month, Mings made mistakes, and Korsa was poor defending headers, Think Engels has to be back for Leicester, wouldn't be surprised if Mings is on the bench. Ok we lost to Chelsea by one goal, so what? We didn't expect anything from chelsea. Move on to the next.

First season back in the prem so let's keep expectations in check. Survive and build. We're trying to defy history and survive in the Prem from the playoffs not make Europe.

So many negatives last night and it could have been a rout but for some superb stops by Heaton.

That wasn't the game for Conor who in fairness has been worthy of his starts, Luiz should have got on sooner and when he did so McGinn pushed up & looked more like his old self. Mings - the England thing has gone to his head, too casual at times and making more mistakes than we'd expect from him. Konsa - stopped and raised his arm looking for the offside, a professional footballer not seeing out the danger!

Wes - worked tirelessly but little more than scraps to feed off, he's playing the role that Smith has asked him to which is to come deep and hold the ball up for the midfield. Tammy seems to be able to do that with ease and be in the right place - Wes could learn a lot from watching him.

McGinn - stood watching Mount for their second goal, he looks knackered and badly needs a rest.

Jack - taking over every set piece - is he trying too hard sometimes?

Positives - Heaton, Trez - growing into this league and a sublime piece of skill to keep the ball in play & beat his man, Elmo, Nakamba and Luiz (I do think though he often comes out second best in a tussle).

Chelsea - lovely to watch, but afforded too much time and space, we are awful when we sit back. Willian a great player - let's not forget they were 3rd last season and we almost nicked a point. No complaints though - they more than deserved the win.

You're 4 points ahead of us and have drawn 4 of your last 6, lost 1, won 1.

Come back when you're not still bitter and twisted over West Ham
