FA Cup: Chelsea (A) Match-Thread

[The Guvnor]

Abdul exciting prospect but still so much to learn

[Lionator]

That should be a penalty

[CPepFox]

Sanchez is terrible in net for Chelsea

Very good by KDH again. 

This is the KDH that we have been missing.  When we play slow walking football with the CBs coming out to the halfway line he doesn’t have the space to run. 

[Shamomoa]

Fatawu should have done better there with the kdh cross doesn't get into the box quick enough! He's not having the best hame so far.. I wouldn't take him off just yet as he can do something unpredictable at times and we are probably going to need that to get anything from this game!

[Pliskin]

Does Sanchez this he’s superman? He’s certainly not a goalkeeper. 

[lcfcdamo]

Its clear to see kdh is better against better sides!

They broke down our Left Wing. Then we got it back, countered and Doyle was our furthest man forward

 

Don't forget to do your day job, Callum.

He’s rubbish and can’t defend for toffee

[jim5000]

We’re not looking too bad. Open at the back but we’re attacking well, just need a decent striker or right winger on the pitch.

 

KDH is doing great

[Ely fox]

Martin Keown such a nob. 

[David Hankey]

The Chelsea keeper is shite, we must capitalise on this weakness.

[KingsX]

Faes trying to head the ball in is like using a cotton swab to hammer a nail in.

[jmono84]

We’re doing alright. Fatawu needs to calm down because there’s a great player in there.

Kdh playing for that prem move 

He was right, Fatawu should have bust a gut to get in the box at the far post. He was just jogging around. 

[ian__marshall]

Can see why Burnley are struggling this season with a similar shape to us. It gets massively exposed down the flanks.

 

On a separate note, not sure where Doyle is supposed to be playing but he's certainly not taking his defensive duties very seriously. 

[Corky]

Defence as expected look way below the levels needed but going forward we look decent without the final ball.

Unfortunately no Vardy 

[coolhandfox]

Think we have done OK.

 

The lack of pace at the back is a issue.

 

Crying out for a proper CF who can hold it up and get on the end of cross.

He’ll be gone even if we go up. 

He can’t do it on his own. He’ll tire by 60/70 mins. Wilf and Winks have to do more

Really thought we'd be up for it today for some reason. Disappointing 

We are. It's been a really open encounter. Chelsea looking the slightly better team, but still a shadow of their former selves. 

[LE3_Fox]

Corners and KDH back post floaters are our main attacking threats this half. Did not expect that first one but Sanchez has clearly missed his annual eye test.

 

We can get one back before HT at this rate. Come on Leicester!

How is it different to Abdul, rash, and didn’t win the ball? GK get too much protection…..

Honestly get Fatawu off for Akgun ASAP

He's the only one offering a Threat.

[Tuna]

Jakub is a good GK

[Tielemans63]

Playing some nice football, but look so vulnerable on the break.
