We should be at least 3 up

Chelsea deserve the lead. Barca did nothing but tease with boring football

Chelsea sat with everyone behind the ball for the first 30 minutes, definitely had the better of the last 15 though

We could quite easily be 3 or 4 up

Played well...and should be leading by now

unlucky guys

barca are such a bunch of play actors though

Chelsea have made it difficult for Barca. We've probably been the better team so far. However, it does look like Barcalona really haven't got out of third gear.

Happy with that, they don't look like penetrating but obviously with players they have can score instantly.

Willian playing really well, Hazard too.

Fabregas doing well without the ball but there has been a few times where we have picked the ball up and he's been in space but not been put on the ball. We have to get him and Hazard on the ball because they make things happen.

Azpi and Willian are having brilliant games. Hazard and Kante have also been good.

Azpi having a blinder, as always.

Good half. Barce look a bit slow and just relying on Messi to do stuff

Can't believe neither of the Willian shots went in though they're the kind of breaks you need to get past Barca.

Chelsea will need to save some steam for the real test at the weekend. This is meeely a warm up.

We are looking good . I can imagine they will come at us all guns blazing second half . If we can contain them again for the first twenty they ll get frustrated ...then we just need one beaiful goal. Wilian been bril so far , think we have got the strategy right so far

Conte tactics spot on though, after some very weird selections this lineup has been setup perfectly to stifle them.

Can’t believe am rooting for you guys, must be them vultures robbing PL PLAYERS but your doing great so far , and the fans 👍

The City game is the week after

It seems obvious but Messi has been very dangerous so far. The cross to Paulinho was superb...

Wrong Manchester team.

I had a btts bet on this game but I can't watch due to work. Does it look likely or should I be moving on swiftly?
