We had Cahill,Terry and Ivanovic who used to regularly score goals for Chelsea from corners.

We dominated the game. 21 attempts, 10 on target, 15 corners, 1 goal. Rudi scored his first goal for us.

And I believe our clean sheet record for last few games has been good. Meh performance but got a win on a day could have been a banana skin, felt like we were in half gear which maybe we need in a season like this, and we did rest 2 out of our 3 best players. Morata does miss quite a few good chances when it comes to one on ones but does well with instinctive finishes (and headers).

Not a great performance, but good to get 3 points.

I feel bad for Sanches. He's clearly an immensely talented player, and I do hope that he rediscovers his confidence and form. Pleased he didn't do it today of course.

He is talented, probably wrong inside the head. It is difficult for him at Swansea as everyone is looking at him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If he can't do it at Swansea and couldn't at Bayern, where can he? I'd expect a player of his talent with a point to prove to be playing with confidence and running it for Swansea.

May be he need some senior players to guide him. I don't know, just guessing. May be go back to Portugal play couple of years to regain confidence.
