Both really not up to the standard required at this level.

Meslier with a triple save, great work by Spiderboy. Alio helps keeps the last one off the line.

Zouma puts Chelsea ahead from a corner. Pretty much a free header....couldn’t handle him.

Looking a bit vulnerable at corners the whole game. No idea what happened to coops seemed to just fall over

We’ve not been great second half, couple of bright moments but we look second best, need a spark from somewhere.

Thought it wa too early for the Poveda / Harriison switch wwe Ian has very little on the defensive side.

Still time to equalise, we've got some dangerous players who can hurt them also.

Paddy’s had no service last 15 first half and all second, we’re getting picked off in midfield, especially on the left. We need a rethink and Rodrigo on to compete at AM.
