Not properly replacing Eriksen was always going to cost us and is a symptom of the awful way the club has been run in recent years.

It’s just contes style, you’ll get used to it.

I wanna see Dele nack up top with Kane.

Must be the coaching

In fairness, given time, Conte may get a tune out of him

How much time does he need though? He's 25 now, and it's been a good 3 years since he looked regularly decent.

In my opinion only Dele can really sort himself out, not any manager.

Really think he needs to move on for his (and the teams) good.

If anyone will improve him it will be Conte. I totally get where you are coming from. Ironically, maybe Ross Barkley can be the anecdotal example. He was excellent yesterday and after two other very good cameos actually looks like he might have a future at Chelsea.

A tune is not good enough . We need players performing at a top level week in week out to move us forward. Need to get rid asap.

Barkley?

He's had the odd few good games every so often at Chelsea. He actually should have scored too yesterday and if he had Chelsea would have won. On the whole he just has not been good enough though and never will be long term.

Someone gave this 1 star lol, are they giving the article 1 star or the fact we haven’t mustered a shot on target for nearly 4 hours?

At what point do you think? Let's sack the manager? You guys like doing that so...genuine question?

Too many question marks. Try again.

We wont be creating much if Lucas and Hojbjerg keep being picked, both these players need upgrading, they are squad players and no more

Going forward is seriously shocking, given the quality of Kane and Son. One shot on target ( Lo Selco's shot against the post ) in two whole games is ridiculous.

Frankly it is such a painful watch, with all that tippy tappy stuff around the opponents area and absolutely no end result.

That said, if there is a positive, it was today's clean sheet ( was never a penalty with Hugo clearly getting the ball ) which is our first in 14 games. So do we assume Conte has ( quite rightly ) started with the defense first, before turning to creating chances going forward.

To be honest, what with West Ham now showing us up at every turn, we need the January transfer window urgently, with that quality CB finally being bought, together with a quality playmaker in midfield being our minimum requirement.

We’ve already got a creative player in Ndombele. He was on the bench. He didn’t trust Eriksen at Inter too. I don’t think creativity is necessarily the issue. I think he wants cultured battlers in midfield but not flakey number tens. I think most of his attacking comes from the wide areas and that’s where we are struggling in think. Reggy has plateaued to a relatively average level and I’ve not seen much evidence that Royal is a great attacking player. His strengths are defensive.

I can’t understand why he’s not tried Son and Kane up top with Ndombele just behind. For all his dribbles, Lucas doesn’t really bring much. It’s worth a try.

Hitting the post is by definition not a shot on target...

I think we all expected GLC and/or NDombele to be effective creative replacements for Eriksen.

Its easy to look back and say "we havent properly replaced him". Its not like we have tried and spent £100m in the process. They just havent worked out yet.
