Quality cross, and an excellent header. I'd agree. But I was responding to the criticism of Hennessey. I'm no fan, but I don't think he was solely at fault.

I expected nothing from this match, and Chelsea showed why they are so far ahead. But that type of defensive lapse, quality goal or not, has been endemic for a year.

If you come to a fork in the road, take it.

Craig Pawson just sent off Vardy for a 2 footed tackle, excatly the same type of tackle that Rojo did on Zaha and the same ref.

Next game could be interesting. Both puncheon and Zaha both hobbling at the end. .....

Quite easily actually as he didn't track back at all and pretty much gave the ball away when he had it. It's not just about standing in the penalty area waiting for the ball to come to you.

Thought we played well today, not that Chelsea looked that good. Problem being all the other defeats in 2016 make this type of game less enjoyable as we need points badly. So much better to watch when there is no pressure losing against the tops sides. Arsenal will be the same if we don't get points against Watford :-(

..we are struggling in one area, but I can see an improvement and this improvement is very hard to justify against the best side in the league and one that will score many more goals against teams in our position in the table, meaning we are in the wrong place and nobody can say we deserve to be where we are considering the actual fighting performances of the team during every game, the team managed by Mr Pardew.
Every team makes mistakes otherwise every game would end 0-0, most teams in our position are struggling with form and achieving goals, we are struggling with just mistakes, mistakes that can and are being dealt with by our great manager, Mr Alan Pardew.
