Overall we did well. Not been to Stamford Bridge for a while, it's a really nice ground. But oh so quiet. Very prawn sandwich, massively different from the old days. Ridiculous stewarding with row upon row of searches as we went into the ground. The stewards were really nice though and I saw no trouble or grumpiness. Two really unlucky goals. Got much better when we swapped Benteke for Wilf. Wan Bissaka excellent and more to come, a bit like Clyne. Luka and McArthur played well, everyone did fine. We would have done better with Sakho instead of Kelly. I thought Sorloth was correct to swipe the ball off Wilf and so unlucky to hit the post. He was centre forward so it was his to take IMO. But the future bodes well.

We rode our luck at times but we were much better in the second half. Sørloth unlucky to have that one chalked off so in the end we were unfortunate yet again.

PVA is such a cool and collected finisher that I’d be tempted to play him as a striker. He’s a really alert and intelligent player. If Joel’s not fit, we’ve always got Souare. I thought Lee looked tidy and creative - perhaps should have been brought on earlier.

Nothing wrong with it at all. The only indiscretion that went on in the box was Cahill hauling down I think it was Tomkins which would ought to have been a penalty even if Soerloth had missed. Preposterous.

PvA has been one on one with arguably the two best keepers in the prem and done them both. Maybe he should play wing, cos he's clearly a better finisher than anyone else in this squad. If we'd taken 20% of our chances this season we'd be safe already. Edited by Dangermouse (10 Mar 2018 9.23pm)

I used some pretty good Anglo-Saxon when I saw him coming on at all after the last couple of times but he was better today.

We didn't play too bad but we didn't play too good either. I didn't see anything which gives me great confidence that we'll survive. Quite a flat atmosphere in the ground.

Well done to our travelling support, we all know we rode our luck on quite a few occasions but at the end of the day that game should of been 2 - 2 but the ref guessed a decision ( again ) and was wrong. Let’s hope we are not one point short of where we want to end up. If we continue to all stick together as we generally do, there are probably some twists to come but we can pull this off. COYE
