Fair result. Decent point.

Fair result. Decent point.

Can’t disagree with that.

[hopelesslyoptimistic]

Great point - we had the better chances but Chelsea dominated possession.

Not sure how Roberts got motm surely one of the keepers or defenders. Had a great chance at the end but his touch would have embarrassed an elephant.

Man for man you could see how much more quality is within their squad- we would struggle to get players on the bench let alone the pitch in that side

[WTF11]

Chuffed he's leaving tbh

Careful what you wish for. He may not be one of the best to transition from Championship to PL, but he always puts a shift in (unlike some others who Bielsa seems to have faith in), he can and has played in almost every outfield position and has more often than not acquitted himself well against players with mega buck valuations, and he adds to the spirit in the team, again unlike some others.

He would have to be replaced, and despite one or two significant successes, our record (for a long time), in bringing high quality players in isn't very good (I'll spare everyone the list of names!&#128521. Better the devil you know.

Tyler Roberts man of the match - all those that doubted him

WTF? Didnt see the game, so I'm assuming that was sarcasm?

That was the commentators on the channel I watched.

No sarcasm, played okay - only the blind coukd begrudge him that today,
Overall not our best performance - but they are a bloody good team and though stats say they where the better team- we actually had the better chances IMO, and Roberts was pretty much at the heart of everything, a decent performance from the lad

Struijk and Llorente look a decent pairing too on todays evidence

[WTF11]

That was the commentators on the channel I watched.

Make no wonder we drew then (amazed we came away with a point if Robert's was MoM!)

[WTF11]

Settle for that but do feel we could have won it

Our record against the big 6 is more than creditable for a newly promoted side with a squad made up largely of the players who got us promoted. Chuffed that we got a point and relieved that the pitch didnt claim any more breakage.

He played okay but not motm maybe is was for his first half effort which was unlucky not to go it
