3-1 win but flat and very slow in building attacks. Really frustrating. Once we go up we should kill games. On a positive, cahill should remain dropped. On the ball rudiger is awesome, to break teams you need ball playing defenders.

We did kill the game at 3-0. Huddersfield offered nothing until the last few minutes and it was clear our players wanted to reserve energy for the upcoming fixtures. Especially now when games are very conjested you don't want to overwork yourself in games that are already won. We've definitely had problems killing off games but this wasn't one of them. I agree Rudiger should be starting, today was easily our best defensive line up.

I agree with you mate. But i just felt we struggled to cut the team open with precise passing. Our goals came from a mistake and two crosses effectively. But cahill should remain dropped. On the ball he offers nothing.

Agreed. Last 20 mins in particular we lost focus, Hazard and Kante off, but we were offside too many times and yes should have buried them. Still, first half was very impressive although against a weak team, was one that had beaten United!

Thomas Lemar would be great signing. Can whip in a hell of a cross, with Sandro behind him gives whole left side of our team new dimension.

£80mill?!? If Lemar's worth £80mill, Hazard must be worth £300m plus!

My point is that Lemar looks a nice, tidy player but I don't think he's ever going to set the World alight - and should we be paying that extortionate amount for a half-decent player? I would rather we spend £120m plus for a few players of real and proven quality (Kane, Bale, Griesmann, Verratti, Alli, Isco - not all of them obviously but players of that calibre) - and fill the squad with our own youth players.

I can see or point, but whatever player we go for is going to be expensive and we will over pay for,

With Morata ruled out the game through tiredness/ injury Conte must play Batsy. Not sure if Drinkwater is recovered but if he is I would like to see him play as well. Maybe Pedro and/ or Willian should be starting as well. We have enough quality players in the squad to put a side out that is refreshed and competitive. Stop moaning about the squad depth and freshen it up please Don Conte. Play Batsy.
