Why did the linesman flag immediately against Bowen but waited for Felix at the other?

Do you really need to ask?

chicagohammer

Paying them way to much respect imo, couple of times they have shown the pace and ability to get through us

buffybegood

Don't know why, but I've got a nasty feeling Bowen is going to get injured, possibly a torn hamstring.

OldCastleSwift

Soucek over Downes to replace Paqueta.

Soucek and Rice hasn't worked all season, so not sure why they think it will this afternoon.

Downes sitting and Rice driving would have been my choice.

buffybegood

Paqueta gonna have to go off, Soucek coming on.

Probably lose Paqueta for 3 or 4 weeks or so, just what we need.

chicagohammer

I am no doctor but Paq may have a coller bone issue and our medical staff try to yank him to his feet by pulling on his arm, now call me old fashioned

steve

Hard watch so far

PrestonHammer

Looks like we've got into top 6 mode, again.

OldCastleSwift

Sigh

jay_in_cpt

Not sure Benrahma has touched the ball, Bowen down injured and yep 1-0 down and deservedly so..Don't look now Slacker.....!

steve

So bad

Expat_Hammer

Maybe we'll wake up now

buffybegood

Great, can't say it wasn't coming.

chicagohammer

That looked so easy - this looks like it could be a difficult afternoon, we are not at the races today

PrestonHammer

I'd put Aguerd in the middle of the 3.

The warning signs were there. Just haven't been in the game at all so far.

OldCastleSwift

A second disallowed goal for Chelsea.

They're pulling us apart.

PrestonHammer

This could be a stuffing

buffybegood

Benrahma finally touches the ball and is easily dispossessed by James, second match running he's been anonymous.

Expat_Hammer

I've seen more mobile traffic cones that Fabianski

Hamstew

This is a worry. Getting in far to easy and zero intensity from us. Regardless of the transfer fees Chelsea are team way out of form.

steve

Are there really 3 worse teams then us .

chicagohammer

Good job we have been practicing the offside trap, obviously been working hard on that on the training ground, and it is paying dividends

chicagohammer

As I typed that, the commentator literally said it 😀

chicagohammer

I laughed at the pigeons sitting in Chelsea’s penalty box, they clearly thought they would not be disturbed

OldCastleSwift

EMERSONNNNNNMMMMMM

alderz

Wahoo!

steve

What .did not see that coming

PrestonHammer

Get in!!!!!

Hamstew

Let's go much better
