are we just great at winning games when playing badly?
As Chelsea continue this amazing unbeaten run the team has been playing pretty poorly in our most recent games.
Recent performances against Bate, Palace, Derby and United have been at best average to poor and we appear to be enjoying a charmed life when it comes to opposition missing gilt edged chances against us.
Without an improvement on our recent performance levels I feel we could well be heading towards some bad results.
Are we living on borrowed time, or

A rocky patch could be on the horizon, the tempo of our passing game has slowed down making us a little bit more predictable with the ball, and with our issues in defense teams will begin to feel like they have a chance against us - particularly on that left side that's just begging to be exploited every game.
Bigger picture it's obviously not a problem, I still have to remind myself this is a team built off Mourinho & Conte's coaching watching it (can't believe we adapted so quickly), but I agree the warning signs are there.
This would be the perfect time for Morata to prove us all wrong cos we may have to rely on him poaching goals (as he did against Palace) to pull through in the coming months.

this is exactly my interpretation of where we are at present.

I do think we need somebody other than Hazard who can conjure up a goal when we're not at the races.
Not sure what we need more right now a scorer of a lot of goals or a scorer of crucial goals.

Things looking a little more like I expected now.
Doesn't make a performance like that any easier to swallow though!
