Match Thread Chelsea v Leicester

[Micky]

Yes that was superb. Really enjoyable.
Our only weak link has been Amartey who needs to stop giving away silly possession. He needs to learn to put the ball in behind their defence when he can't give an easy pass.
Special mention again for Wilf and Riyad who have been outstanding.
I still expect us to lose though.

As gud an arf as a've sin this seesun.

 

[Blaarev]

As an aside to vardys lack of decent movement we have been absolutely brilliant.

Not many teams will come here and play Chelsea off the park like that.


Shame we didn't take any of our very good chances as we know how that ends.

According to OptaJoe who’s in the TV2 studio in Norway, Vardy has created or finished 7 chances which is unusually high for one half

Kante fouls James. I forgot Kante was playing.

I think one of the twins is injured.

Judas.

Disgraceful dive from Mahrez. I hate that shit.

 

[popillius]

Hazard and Fabregas off for Willian and Pedro.

 

[Motown Fox]

Mahrez with VAR could have been booked for diving

 

[popillius]

Mahrez with VAR could have been booked for diving

He could still be punished retrospectively I think.

 

[xavk]

I think the ref has to award something (ie be conned) for them to be able to look retrospectively. The ref saw it and didnt give it so dont think they can

 

[popillius]

Chelsea look better already with Willian and Pedro because they are having to play a different way.

 

[SilverFox]

****

No he can't, because the ref didn't give a penalty.

 

[Kettering Pete]

Oh bollocks

 

[Jeff]

Chilwell sent off

 

[SilverFox]

Play well for bloody nothing.

 

[Blaarev]

Silly boy, Ben

Was hoping we could scrape a win here but might struggle now
