Jorginho dictates the play and sets the tempo, hazard has the magic but like I've said before if his quiet then teams quiet, there's no goals or creativity in there, kovecic 21 months without s goal, kante 2 / 3 a season jorginho 5 maybe if on penalties and hazard not on pitch, Willian had the chance to find morata but shot from ridiculous position. morata had a problem with the ref and the offside rule, frustrating day but still unbeaten and still up there. Improvement needed but s better start than we throught from Sarri and team.

I am completelly with you Matt, this season our main aim should be to make sure we are at top 4. Maybe win some other trophy too. I think man city will take some catching, can't see why everyone is raving so much about liverpool they look alright but got some really lucky calls of lately (minus Mane goal which should have stood)

I’d be over the moon with a trophy. Europa league preferably, and top 4, aim is always the title but realistically we are too far behind city and LFC, January and the summer is going to be busy, lots of players to move on and to come in, let’s remember pep finished 4th final day of season his first year and Klopp didn’t get going for few seasons so a lot to look forward too in time,

It wasn’t that bad a performance, Everton’s intention was to stop us playing. In the first half they succeeded but in second we had enough chances to win it. If we can stay in contention till jan window. Then bring in a striker then hopefully that will help. morata falling over and off side was rediculous. But we are in a better position than we hoped.

Barkley was poor against Palace and poor again yesterday but for you that warrants a place in the first team, over Kovacic who’s hardly put a foot wrong and who’s ability to hold onto the ball pulls people out of position?

JD the problem is that we need an attacking mid who can score goals from midfield. I have comented below that for me it has to be either barkley or RLC for left mid role and eother Kante or kovavic for right side.

Really struggled to create anything today, very frustrating. Felt like we did enough to win but couldn’t get through. Morata is so annoying to watch, goes down so easily and always offside.

Needed to bring on Pedro, Giroud and Barkley with half an hour to go because it was clearly not working.

Man Utd win best for us next so fingers crossed.

Yeap. Morata very annoying. He focuses on complaining than getting a goal. He may have to go really. Not the player to take us to next level. Costa started like that but he was intelligent enough to figure it out.

Agree0 Disagree0

I thought everyone from our midfield to striker were below part (minus kante of course who as always was covering so much ground)

Barkley was terrible when he came on! Don’t get me wrong I want him to do well but today and against Liverpool he gave the ball away cheaply and didn’t allow us to build pressure.

Agree3 Disagree0

I am loathe to criticise any Chelsea player and was hoping that Morata would improve . but he hasn't and he has got to go - he is just awful. What does Morata give us that Tammy Abraham couldn't = nothing; what does Tammy Abraham give us that Morata doesn't = I don't know but I'm betting it wouldn't be less!

Agree0 Disagree0

Didn’t get very long though, Jorginho was awful, so sloppy. Kovacic did ok but didn’t offer any attacking threat and Kante did pretty well defensively but again nothing going forward. At least Barkley will make a run and have a shot, that’s what we needed.

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Nov 2018 23:29:09
Barkley gave the ball away constantly and was very sloppy in possession. Kovacic was allowing us to build pressure and pulling the Everton midfielders and defenders out of position. As soon as Barkley was introduced we seemed unable to build any meaningful attack.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Nov 2018 10:52:38
We didn’t build a meaningful attack without him either, Jorginho spent all game giving the ball away.

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Nov 2018 11:21:46
I think the problem is that we have no goal threat from midfield when kovavic, kante and jorginhnk plays.

I do believe that kovavic should rotate with Kante, but for me Kante is too good to be changed therefore there is really no place in starting eleven for kivavic atm.

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Nov 2018 12:04:01
Agreed, Barkley can be sloppy there’s no doubt but he also scores goals which is something we are still struggling with at times. Jorginho, Kante and Kovacic might get 5 between them all season.

Very dissapointed with the draw and worst yet it occurs before the international break which means we could be 4 points off the top, more suffering.

Decisive moment in the game for me was when Willian was put through on goal. He should have slipped the ball through to Morata for a guaranteed goal, however his poor decision making cost us dear there. These are moments that matter.

Note to manager
Teach Morata offside law. He’s as bad as loic remy.

And teach him to: stay on his feet; stop rolling around like a big baby; move to the front post when crosses come in; any movement at all would be preferable to standing still. The biggest blow today is that Morata wasn't sent off - we could do with 3 games not seeing him.
