Chelsea vs Leicester - Match Thread - 23/08/2014

[AKCJ]

Gotta be honest.

 

 

I don't even care what happens in the second half.

 

We've looked the business and that was all I wanted for today.

[Guest]

great first half.

 

We're the better team.

 

everyone played well.

[egg_fried_rice]

Going on a Setanta stream, I feel we've been the better team first half.

 

Excellent so far, if only we'd have been a little more clinical in the final third. 

[Fifties Blue]

The lads done good

[RowlattsFox]

Excellent first half slightly spoilt by dreadful crossing and set pieces.

Mahrez looks good until he has to provide a final product.

[MrSpaM]

Playing really well, we actually looked the better side in that half. More of the same lads

[KFS]

Really good half from us. Andy 'faultless' King.

[Legend_in_blue]

Andy King superb half.

[RobHawk]

Cracking first half! Gotta keep it tight 2nd half now! Proud of the performance so far. Just need a little more quality on the final ball!

[Please Hammer]

I think people are being harsh on Mahrez right now. He's taking an extra dribble and not finishing well, but he's still been our main creative force and he's done some lovely things. Wouldn't even consider taking him out now

[Merging Cultures]

The Chelsea fans here are impressed with how we played.

[Webbo]

Cracking half, everyone has been great, especially Hammond,King,Schlupp and Konch.

[Fox_in_a_Box]

Great first half.

[orangecity23]

Really good half, good performances from the whole team. I think Dean Hammond is turning into my new favourite player

[foxes_rule1978]

Giving we are missing the likes of Drinkwater, James and Vardy we look strong. Kingy really stepping up to the task

[Floridafox]

I know its only half-time but what a performance from Konchesky!

[Blanesta]

That was a great half, there is room for improvement though, our final delivery is terrible. Chelsea haven't got going and I hope it bloody stays that way!

[Brooksy]

Got a 0-1 GTF written all over it.

[wattolcfc]

Can't believe I'm saying this but... We are actually BOSSING the midfield against a talented Chelsea side at the Bridge! What a great first half from the lads, keep it up lads! You've done us proud no matter what happens and dare I say that we could win this???

[STUHILL]

Very proud of us so far!

 

Up against World stars like that and we are matching them

 

Great confidence booster. Longer it goes on, more frustrated they will get..... Dare we dream??  haha  

[Heskey2011]

This i much better than I thought it would be kingy and wez especially have been superb. Little mention for schlupp n'all running his socks off.

[Jace]

Great first half by us especially when most our 1st choice midfield is out injured Man Utd would have been happy with that half performance, Cambiasso are you watching?

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Chelsea 0 - 0 Leicester Ressies

 

Excellent, excellent half. Very disciplined; helps that the referee is doing a fantastic job, too.

[Haydos]

I think people are being harsh on Mahrez right now. He's taking an extra dribble and not finishing well, but he's still been our main creative force and he's done some lovely things. Wouldn't even consider taking him out now

 

I wouldn't yet. But Nige should have a word at HT. He's got quick feet, there's 2 times now where he should have just knocket it out, opened his body and gone for the far post. Switch of corner takers or just ask him to float them.

[WhispyWizard]

Chelsea know exactly what they are doing, wearing us down so that they can go all guns blazing from about 70 minutes.

 

Chelsea have wasted little energy in the middle of the park.
