    Chelsea have moved up a few yards last 10mins or so, limiting the space that was afforded to us from the off. Struggling to form consistent flow here now. Bit clueless with the ball.

    89% possession for Chelsea in the last 5 minutes. Why are we dropping off?

    Ideal for balls over the top for Isak to run onto. We don't have that option, so they can press with ease.

    Chelsea are pressing us quite well. We don't seem to have the ability to play through it at the moment.

    Easy

    1-1

    Theyve controlled the ball since the 20th minute

    Farcical goal of course. As usual.

    The worst thing about us this season is that we are just dreadful to watch. Its boring tepid cowardly football.

    There is a continuous lethargy that creeps in every game and all of the team just accept it. Shrug of the shoulders

    We're 40 mins into the game and Gakpo hasn't touched the ball yet.

    0 touches for the CF in 40 mins.

    Slot.

    Personalities should be at the top of the list when assessing new players to bring in.

    Jones is simply not a RB. Szob seems to press while Grav and Mac fall deeper.

    Rio the shining light. So many fell off the pace after 15 minutes.

    Leadership should start with the manager.

    Because we're passive, passive, passive.

    Chelsea realised after 20 minutes that there isn't that much about us physically, so moved themselves up the pitch.

    We're weak.

    Shambolic. Attack after attack between konate and Curtis and slot hasn't changed it.

    Would much rather Frimpong at right back, and Chiesa (or Jones, or Nyoni, or whoever) ahead of him. Frimpong always looks so much more dangerous attacking from deeper, whereas he gets a bit lost when he's always ahead of the ball. But on the sprint, ball at his feet, he'll always draw players which opens up the space in front for the forwards.

    You mean play a RB at RB? Why would we do that when we can play a CM in RB and a RB on RW.

    There's a lot of issues with many of our players, but this also looks like a team that has given up on the manager. I can't see how he can remain in place.

    It’s funny how people were getting on Isak when he started that he wasn’t involved, but Gakpo hasn’t touched the ball yet today.

    Slot's football is terrible.

    Whoever the CF in the system is gets absolutely starved.

    We should have seen signs last season when Jota or Nunez played there and barely saw the ball, so became completely ineffectual. A lot of people were saying that Nunez was the problem there. This season it's the same for Isak and now Gakpo. Ekitike and Diaz seen to differ as they are roamers who hunt for the ball around the pitch and so can get on it a bit more.

    Started brightly, but everything running through 17 year old Rio.

    Barely strung a few passes together since our goal. CF hasn't touched the ball.

    Chelsea playing most of the football, and mostly in our half. Their goal very soft.

    Team look lost/ not particularly bothered.

    3 attempted shots in that 47 mins. At home. Against a team that have lost 6 games in a row.

    The goal

    A blocked free kick from miles out

    The VVD miss that may or may not have been offside

    Can we sack him at ht?

    Getting outclassed by the Chelsea academy manager who are on the worst form in the league by the way.
