Only 17 points ahead of the greatest team ever to grace the championship with their presence.

Enzo out! Sack the board!

Lovely!

 

this mug is 25 years old and my pre match ritual is a cup of tea in this mug. Amazingly I lost it last season and found it in the basement on my tool shelf. It came with an Easter Egg.

So it wasn't brendans fault all along....

and 13 from 3rd more importantly.

Exactly Right !!!

It's all about automatic promotion.  The playoffs are a nightmare.

Was limping somewhat when he was substituted in the Cardiff game.

About as comfortable as it gets. Cannon looks like a great finisher, some nice touches aswell. Justin is so much better on the right. Yunus decent. Dont rate Casadei at all, so slow and laboured on the ball. Would like to see some clips of him at Inter to see what Chelsea saw

I am so pleased with how things have gone when you consider the number of points gained in the last eight games played over 30 days.

Credit to Huddersfield for making a game out of it and didn’t die without fighting. Fair play.

They didn't really start playing until they were 3-0 down, if they'd played like that the whole game it could have been a more decent game

I'm guessing he  looked brilliant playing U21 at Inter but I can't see him ever making the Chelsea squad.   English football seems too fast for him .!!

At times it just looks too easy. We are so above this level it’s ridiculous 

[Bert]

Comfortable win. Probably could’ve had more goals. Annoying we miss out on a clean sheet through some shoddy defending at a 2nd ball again. 
 

Impressed with Cannon. Can drop short, can play off the shoulder, not afraid to get stuck in and seems confident in front of goal. 

[Jimbo]

Their Keeper must really hate getting done at his near post by Mavididi, twice this season he's done that to him 😂

Happy new year Foxes!

 

hate to say it, but fair play to cov for turning around their season.  They’ve come from absolutely nowhere

Haven’t seen back but looked a bad mistake

Yes, a decent 8-2 game maybe. There's a reason these teams play this way tactically.

I haven't seen it back yet either, but I think he's just caught him out. Should be stopping it though 

[Costello]

Explosive from Cannon…..has he got a short fuse though ?

Yeah I agree, but they didn't even look interested when we went 2 up. Surely at 2-0 your game plan is out of the window. It helped that they got their goal so soon after our 3rd and gave them a bit of spark. 

 

I know it's a completely different game and mindset at 3-0 or 3-1 but they looked half decent when they came at us

Coventry and Norwich should have been already in playoffs positions. QPR is also another team underachieving.

It seems Enzo is a good judge of player.
 

Not every player can hit the ground running and most will be judging against what they’ve seen in those positions before - which are two very, very good players for the level in KDH and N’didi.

KDH and who?

[Jordan]

We were always going to lose out on some quality in the midfield today. That said, there have been some times we’ve rotated and not gotten the result (Wednesday away) + other times we’ve not rotated and put more minutes on our starters (Rotherham home), so dipping into the reserve midfield, scoring 4, winning, and giving KDH the day off is all one big treat.

 

I’ll forgive some of the defending. Also credit to Huddersfield who easily could have wilted but worked hard. I like Darren Moore, always seems like a decent fellow.

It just goes to show the strength in depth we have over the rest of the league when the busiest period of the season is when we pull away from the pack.
