That a clear red for me.

Zouma is just a god awful footballer.

Amazing that Chelsea's biggest weakness by a mile last year was their god awful defence and they've gone on to spend £700m on improving their attack.

Funny thing is their attack looks less fluid and dynamic.

He's genuinely terrible. Is he even one of the top 20 best French centrebacks at the moment? Can't believe Chelsea have persisted with him and Christensen for so long. Feels like a throwback to when we had Senderos and Djourou.

Mount and Havertz are central players. Playing them both like this doesn't make sense to me.

Incredible how much better VAR is working now that referees can consult the monitor. Cut out this nonsense about clear and obvious error and no wanting to undermine the ref. Actually seems quicker to me too.

Yep. Much faster and fairer. Most of the decisions are right and can't be argued.

And it isn't even rocket science this should be the way. Mike Riley was just being retarded last season

Guess we'll see what Thiago can do, he's on now!

Bissouma should have been sent off against us last season as well. Was very dirty in that game.

well that was fast, Mane 1-0!

What a well-constructed goal by Pool. It Pains me to see Pool playing beautiful football.

and there's #2

and this is why Kepa sucks. Lol.

Kepa being Kepa. Its astonishing how he is still as first keeper

Hahaha Kepa is really the worst keeper I have seen in this league.

LOL

All that flashy investment and they've still got Igors Stepanovs son in goal.

We are arguing over Emi and Leno but what the hell did Chelsea do with Kepa?? ??

Kepa making sure Christensen going all "get down Mr. President" doesn't steal the headlines from him

Jorginho got killed by Robertson

Did Salah just "Boateng" that defender? LOL

edit - was it Robertson?

Instant impact from Thiago.

Allison saved a penalty. Poor Chelsea haha

Ffs, denied an FPL assist.

Good from Allison , waited for Jorginho to jump and skip then made his move.

Chelsea spunking so much money on their attack is baffling when their defence is pathetic.

Liverpool have the air of champions about them. I don't think City will get close.

Our next 4 games are Liverpool, Sheffield, City and Man United.

So you're saying City and Liverpool could be joining that list too? I like the way you think.

Thiago broke broke the Premier League record for most passes in 45 minutes and in the time he was in had more passes than any Chelsea played had during the entire game (75).
I was cursing that we have Xhaka the whole time I was watching him

He also conceded a penalty.

Very impressive start to his premier league career by Castagne .

Seems to have replaced Ricardo Pereira very adequately (who I rate very highly).

What a hit by Praet. The Belgian gang at Leicester are doing the business tonight.

I think so too. Liverpool look very strong.

If Emi shows his recent form for a whole season I reckon he'll  be replacing Kepa there next season.

Sheffield have looked awful so far in the first two games. (Same with Southampton).

They might have a fight on their hands if this continues.

Martinez saves a pen on his debut
