Had to kick us to win. Had to buy the ref to allow the kicking.
Great performance by us, until we ran out of steam and the usual mistakes crept in.

Gutted.
Great effort but still no result. This team are hopeless.
We dropped off in the last 20 mins which invited pressure. But for 70 odd mins we looked cohesive in defence and attack. A huge upgrade on any of the dross Emery served us over the last 12 months. Some unexpected improvements in certain individuals like AMN and Nelson.
Great Performance is a bit much as we just tried to defend our 1-0 lead without really taking game to chelsea when we had the chance. We had a great chance to beat them and chucked it away in last 10 mins.
Blaming the ref is easy and distracts us from some improvement but still the weaknesses exist.
Took too long making changes again if you ask me.
I don't know why Willock keeps being the first alternative.
We lost and so we should have done Chelsea far superior, would have helped if we had not given the ball away at every opportunity.
Although suppose it was a fitting end to 2019.
This was the issue for me. Good teams who sit back and defend still do something at the other end. We didn’t and because of that Chelsea could push further up without having to worry about being countered. It was a shocker from Leno but inviting pressure is never a good idea unless it’s methodical. For us it felt like we were hell bent on defending the 1-0 like our lives depended on it but gave no thought for what we could do to Chelsea to make them sweat.
