Match Thread Chelsea V Everton 25/10/17 League Cup

I feel more gutted by that than any other loss this season.

I hope that's a good thing.

If we play like like against Leicester we are going to utterly batter them.






And probably lose 2-1

Some real positives out of that 2nd half. One being we didn't sell Lukaku to Chelsea in return for Batshuyai as he is carp.

 

[SteveSC]

Utter rubbish. We were appalling. 'Unsy' (cringe)

What are you on about? Really hope you are being sarcastic....

So you think in the second half we were poor?

What were you expecting from a caretaker manager in charge since Monday?

 

[captainvindaloo]

Forget Rooney, play DCL and Niasse next match.

 

[Kal El]

Brilliant second half! Shocking Ref tho
More of that on Sunday please
COYB

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

Get yer Ma to try with you lad

I beg your pardon?

 

[peteblue]

Everything sounding better in the second half. Never expected to win but there seems to be a bit of promise of recovery

You can’t ask for more. Unsy will sort them out....

 

[Groucho]

To me, apart from Williams and the odd mistake, that was much much better.

Things will click into place I feel.

Let’s remember it was the champions we were playing. Yes, not their first team, but the majority have been or will Be their first team. And we have a debutant in the middle and a player that hasn’t played for months, along with a couple of wingers with next to zero game time and a young rb who has barely played for us.

And we were the much better side in the second half. If you don’t think so you weren’t watching the game.

Cabellero kept out 3 great opportunities for us.

Let’s move on to the next game with some confidence that it was vastly improved.

My thoughts too

Better performance when Koeman took us there in a total thrashing !

 

[II McColl II]

Without a doubt huge positives to take from that, bit of luck and at times better attacking play and we could have had a few 2nd half.

The 2 corners aside we battered them 2nd half and gave them nothing in the 1st and only looked in danger when we gave it away instead of being outplayed as we have recently.

Much more positive about this weekend now, perform like that 2nd half and even the 1st half we will be back in the points soon enough.

 

[TyphooToffee]

Totally agree.

First time this season that I've been really proud of the players.

Same here

 

[Toffeelover]

Showed real grit in the 2nd, nothing to be ashamed of. Think Rooney could have come off sooner.
