Fatawu losing it every time he receives the ball

Vestegaard =

That all came from Fatawu yet again losing the ball on the edge of their box.

Yes, it started there. 
 

However it also showed that Choudhury isn’t a natural fullback as wasn’t aware of what was behind him.

And that’s why he’s no good in the prem. 

If he’s playing he needs pace beside him, that goal probably wouldn’t happen if Justin was there

[adejo92]

That kind of defending is a timely reminder why we are in the championship. 

[westernpark]

Iheanacho. It’s time.

[Guest ChrisWalken456]

This is a shame. 

[Brooksy]

Choudhury doesn't have much of a footballing brain does he?

Aaaand switched off.  Got further in to the game before conceding than I thought to be honest so that was a positive. Not ruining my Sunday watching this shite. 

That’s the spirit 

[Shamomoa]

As much as I love fatawu he needs to stop cutting in all the time it's getting a bit predictable and chelsea already know what he is going to do as ive noticed at least a couple of times already... that has now lead to a Chelsea goal 😪😪 not saying he needs to stop doing it as It can lead to goals but be a bit more unpredictable and only do it sometimes or at least time it better so he can get his shot off...

Too easy there. We know Vestegaard will get done for pace, but who is covering?

Not easy it was worse  possibly the worst bit of defending I have ever seen 

[Pliskin]

Chelsea don’t even look like they’re trying, it’s walking pace at times!

[Muzzy_no7]

Fatawu is not a very good footballer is he 

[Guest glasgowfox]

Exactly what I said several weeks ago about Vestergaard.....he does not have the pace to compete in the premier league.  I got slated for saying it and take no pleasure at saying its exactly what I thought.

[SouthStandUpperTier]

We really are absolute muck at the moment.

[coolhandfox]

Vestergaard is beat too easy.

 

But Hamza and Faes dreadful positioning.

 

 

[Harry96]

Fatawu havin. Stinker 

[jmono84]

Get Fatawu off. He can’t handle big games. Bad decision after bad decision. He’s Chelsea’s main source of attack

[Nod.E]

He'd be fine in the Prem, but for a top side. He's a good defender, but put him in enough 1v1s and it's going to cost you eventually.

[hejammy]

The way to break us down. Run at us and we crumble. Quite simple really. 

[HighPeakFox]

Several guilty parties there, Vesteragaard the least of them really.

[CrispinLA in Texas]

What's the point of Hamza if he can't tackle 

[dmayne7]

Vestergaard got away with that as well

Absolutely - where to even start. Could call out 4/5 players there.
