Anyway you look at that today it was absolute theft and we never deserved it... But then arsenal deserved to lose in the last 10 minutes for letting it go
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I disagree, respectfully. Balance of play a draw was fair as Arsenal were much better first half, but we were excellent second half against a really competitive Arsenal side.

Not going to complain we snuck the win.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You end up watching?

i love frank but gotta disagree, feel the players dragged that through and cho done what he is asked to do. great win in the end, thoroughly deserved in my book on the balance of play over the 90.

The Spurs game we were great first half and then the red card killed it as a contest, also Spurs were woeful.

Arsenal arguably played their best game all season, but in the second half Chelsea really turned it around and proved me wrong. Dominated the match from 45 minutes onwards.

Really pleased with how we adapted in tough circumstances.

After the first half i was thinking "if only i had gone to watch Cats"

Leno gifted us a goal. I didn't see us scoring otherwise

So Frank not to blame for the first half performance then, that wad own to the players too right?

Albeit Tammy was getting half chances prior to that

I would say the players deserve most of the credit for the result tbh
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I would say you are wrong about that
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I would say Lampard showed some flexibility, and bravery with his decisions. That I will give him credit for, but I will also say he got very lucky with it.

Most of the credit should go to the players who stepped up; Lamperti in particular was excellent

A substityution by Frank to replace an idea that had not worked out,

So the theme here is that it was Lampards fault that we were so bad in the first half and the it was down to the players that we were so much better in the 2nd half

Tammy: "I give credit to the boys, I give credit to Jorginho. The first 30mins they dominated the ball, were popping us in midfield, then this man comes on and it was a whole different ball game. Him coming on lifted the whole team."

I had 1-1 on predictions
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Which would have been fair on balance, it was a 1-1 game tbh.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dont see how you come to this conclusion. Arsenal had all the momentum 1st and only got 1 goal plus got away with a red and pen. We had all the momentum the last 15 and capitalized on it getting 2 fair goals. This balance crap is nonsense. We wanted it more in the end. Which is an area you dont seem to get.

I was pretty confident we were getting in the right positions, with Arsenal tiring, for us to get at least one goalscoring chance before the end of the game.

Jorginho scored in the 83rd minute, I am pretty sure if we kept that level up, seemed to go up another gear when CHO came on (hands up he put egg on my face today).

Also, even if you disagree, I thoroughly expected Arsenal to score in the first 15 minutes of the second half and us to then crumble. Even if we hadnt scored I would have been encouraged by our control of the game.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We were looking ike getting an equaliser , tottaly agree. I did not anticpate the winner though

People seem to be glossing over the (possible) penalty and Guendouzi red. Funny that1

I think the initial team set up was all wrong, put us in a predicament from the off, azpi staying at rwb for too long. I think he made themost evident subs and give him props for the lamptey one. A bad day at the office for frank for me. but thats why we have leaders like jorgino

Chelsea are too predictable though. Need to change their game up a little. Be more direct sometimes. It's all well and good having 60% possession but you need to get in behind the opposition.
