Chelsea_Matt Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 I’ll take it. Dropped points but Sanchez saved us too. Overall I think there’s clear improvements and I’m quietly pleased with Maresca so far. 😌😌😌 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post martin1905 Posted October 6 Popular Post Share Posted October 6 Brilliant performace, loved it. Came up against a team that is up there with the most defensive I have ever seen. A lot of talk about Arsenal and the 'Dark arts', Forest were a different level. This will 100% be one of my favourite games of the season. Showed so much character and never gave up. Absolutely brilliant. Levi Colwill MOTM by an absolute mile. Colossal with and without the ball. His best performance in a Chelsea shirt by far. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoblyBobly Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Villa only drew against relegation candidates so still 4th. For the neutral , what a game. For me listening on radio…I’m feckin frazzled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Kenny Monkou Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Very frustrating not to win but we came from behind to get a point. Was always going to be tricky, Forest defensively are very adept. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chara Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Both keepers had the main influence on the result...double save from Cole's great efforts and Sanchez saving Chelsea,,,(only one near disaster but got away with it,),,examples among other pivotal moments.

SideshowLuiz Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Quite unbelievable that we got 6 yellows to Forest's 4 (2 for JWP), when they were one of the dirtiest teams we've played against. Part of that may be down to poor refereeing, but they're only one half of the problem. We need to be more disciplined. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thevelourfog Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Some things to like, some things to be pretty worried about projected across an entire season. I like that there's genuinely fight to us this season, much better than last year's petulance. But it's not coordinated enough and we make it easy for the ref to choose a yellow card. And we simply concede, and give up chances, far too readily to be serious. Easy to project whatever your broader sense of optimism/pessimism is onto that result. For me, 5 points from the 12 available to us from PL home games so far doesn't scream CL qualification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a dead eyed dick up front. Osimen deal should get back on track. At least Sanchez positives are outweighing negatives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boratsbrother Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Frustrating result against a horrible bunch of time wasting, playing acting crunts Should have won but could also have lost this, so overall i'll settle for a point. Lads gave it everything and I never ask for more than that. I like Enzo's passion on the touchline too. Good thing is we haven't lost any ground on the teams we are competing with. Negatives. We cannot keep clean sheets and cannot expect us to score 3 or 4 every game, so we are going to continue to drop some points against teams we should be beating. We are very much a chasing pack team at the moment and I'm ok with that. But if we are to ever get back amongst the top three and be serious challenges again, we will simply need more players who have a higher level of rapid passing ability in tight spaces in the final third to open up these low block teams, like City have been doing for years. Jackson. Madueke. Neto. Mudryk. Sancho are a lot better on the counter than they are at opening up teams with sharp passing in and around the box. I don't think any of them are title challenging level players tbh, though Madueke might become one of he can become more consistent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but there are not many easy games these days. All the teams are very fit, organised and can get around the field and spoil and cause problems on the break. Unless you have genuine top class forwards and creative midfielders, it's not easy getting through 9 or 10 men behind the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And because I personally can see definite improvement I’m not frustrated at all at the result. ✌️🤩😌 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No divine right to win and Forest will pull off many of these rearguard performances, as you rightly said they did to Liverpool. We could and should have won, but over the last 2 or 3 seasons we have lost plenty of these games. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Kenny Monkou Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Re top 4. Spurs looking very impressive against Brighton. Villa and Newcastle don’t look up to much from the 2 games this weekend. All to play for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
