Sooooooo.....,

Kante looked as advertised. I dont know what the formation was in the second half, but whatever it was i liked it.

Aina was getting worked by niang, but i still think hes good enough to challenge ivans mins at RB.

Another good showing for chalobah.

Also, jt and cahill would have been embarrassed by a better team with some of those balls over the top, but iirc most of those chances came with our 2-man midfield and dried up when kante came on.

Bertrand Traore going out on loan to Ajax. Wish we had moved Remy instead.

I think it's pretty obvious Roman doesn't really care anymore or maybe the oil prices going down has put a big dent in his deep pockets. It's the only possible explanation or our lack of action along the back line.

Either way we are not a big time buying club anymore. Get ready for some mediocrity.

With that said yes some of the non money related moves are still terrible. Can't believe we are sending Traore out.

Not crazy about it either, but with no euro nites its not like our 3rd striker would see much gametime anyway, especially if conte roles with only one up top. Let remy rot while traore gets some pt somewhere. Still not convinced remy stays anyway.

During the inevitable stretch of games Costa will miss, it wouldnt surprise me if Hazard would be played centrally if michy cant play. Or RLC.

But not getting some defensive reinforncemnts is unacceptable.

Yeah everyone knows we need help across the back line and nothing was done to help that. Very frustrating.

70m today is almost nothing for a team needing a significant makeover.

Oscar it is.

Ivan Cahill and Terry in the back with Matic in front, that should go well. Matic lolololol

I think Chelsea come away from the first weekend looking by far the best team in the league. Haven't seen such a one sided performance in a long time. Early days of course, but encouraging for you guys for sure.
