Thought Holding had a good game tonight actually, having defended like a pub league player in his last two games. I thought that the 3 CBs looked really assured in possession - shame the front 3 didn't have a clue what to do with the fucking ball.
The defence wasn’t pulled apart like in recent games and Chelsea were far too generous in allowing them to get back into position. Naturally the longer the game went on the more the assured we looked at the back but it didn’t stop Mustafi playing like a moron.

Depending on who you speak to, Lacazette has either been Wengered, lacks service or is surrounded by mediocrity.
Either way, he needs to significantly up his work rate if he’s going to end his goal drought let alone survive in this league. He may not have set the game alight but the difference in work ethic was blindly obvious when Sanchez came on and it stopped Chelsea building momentum from the back.
This team is full of deadweight and Sanchez is going to leave a big hole make no mistake about that.
we saw last night how life without ozil and sanchez will look,amazing how much we have regressed in the past few years,it wasn't long ago we'd take a team with the likes of eboue and denilson to the bridge and put on a better show,certainly going forward,we lack everything we need with our two stars to even dent the top 6

Really, Eboue is the perennial headless chicken. Denilson must have lied about being Brazilian, it wouldn't surprise me if his name was Dennis.
