Rom has been creating a little space and Terry is afraid to get beat for speed so is backing off. When he does play Rom tight Rom shrugs him off. Making good runs, only a matter of time before he puts one in.

Overall, team looks organized and Mirallas looks up for it. Let's go get it!
 
Like to see Deulofeu on second half or even cleverley for lennon to just quicken us up a bot in attack, as it stands right now a solid performance but chelsea dont actually look that confident and we wont have a better chance for a whilst to turn them over at their gaff
 
Good half. Thought Besic was sloppy with his first touch once or twice and their only chance came from him playing the offside when it was never on. We need to turn, what appears to be, the pattern of many of our games this season around and be even better in the 2nd half....because we can win this, no doubt.

My only worry, as mentioned the other day, is that we don't seem to be able to combine being SOLID at the back and being really creative at the other end. We certainly seem to have gone from one end of the spectrum to the other. We need to find a balance. It's been really noticeable how compact the team is from Lukaku back to the centre backs. Nowhere near as expansive so far....admittedly this may not be the game to judge.

Swansea will be a better opportunity to see if we have turned a corner or just shut up shop for a few games.

Since Stoke we have only conceded once in the league to Martinez' credit....but we have also only scored once in 225 minutes since.

We need another magic player (match winner) who can help us attack more while being solid.
 
If we played with Mirallas over Kone im confident we would have had more points than we currently do, looking very dangerous with his pace. Him and Deloufou either side would be good to see.
