Oh Mendy,
Well you came
And you flapped without taking
Manuel tucked it away
Oh Mendy
Arthur crossed
You were lost and left shaking
And it wasn’t your day
Oh Mendy

Superb Ironi

Where’s the OV? I’m craving it.

They're not a happy bunch are they?

[London Fields Hammer]

Very amusing OV but the later comments on Moyes' tactical genius and the fact we had so many injuries are pretty fair

I do quite like caravans, tbf.

I quite like Caravan's In The land Of Grey And Pink and thank The Chelsea Oppo view for reminding me about it.

‘I said it before the season started: Antonio was the one to get, he is twice the player Lukaku is.’

This was a particular favourite

[Alf Garnett's (Ex) Missus]

Injuries? Don't they have about 100 players out on loan?

For me was the obvious admiration for Moyes tactics and the fact we are no longer easy to play against was the best bit. The comment on Bowen is a weird one though...

The sense of entitlement from the established top 4 is brilliant to smash...I've always been a bit of a rebel lover

[smuts]

"Bowen should get a retrospective ban" :lol:

For what? Getting wiped out by their keeper?

Whinging about us committing tactical fouls...oh the irony.

[ereford ammer]

I was really looking forward to the OV and it has not disappointed. I love it when we beat any one of the 'entitled six', their reaction is so predictable and hilarious. C'mon you Moyes's massive bastards!

[Clacton-ammer]

"crisis, and Tuchel for sack" "Bowen retrospective ban " what a load of helmets :lol:

I love giving it to the entitled few, it's always more fun

Great day, team were one, and a special mention for Bowen, arguably his best game in the C&B, he was everywhere!

Slight downer was seeing Zouma limp off, hopefully only a minor pull, find out more over the next 24 hours I guess as I haven't seen anything about him yet??

Thank you Moyes, coaching staff and the players

"We crafted our goals beautifully..."

I'm sure if we'd scored a free header from a corner, that is *exactly* how it would have been described by the Chelsea fan concerned too!

[last.caress]

"I usually like to give credit to the opposition..."

Of course you do, pickle.

"...but for me Watford gave us a better game than West Ham, despite the results."

Well obviously for you Watford gave you a better game. You beat Watford. Being magnanimous is piss-easy when you've won. Grace in defeat seems to be a bit more of a challenge for axman2526.

"We are living in a time when evil prospers."

That's unusually self-aware for a fan of Chelsea, the European Champions.

[Estuary]

One of those games where you knew our lads had the self belief to get the win. Oddly very different from Wed and Brighton where you felt they struggled.
Our counter attacking game over came them in the end, without Kante they lacked the cover to disrupt us getting out of their press and on to thier back line.
I thought our front two were outstanding. First half Antonio was trying to draw fouls, didn't get many given though. Second half he gave up on that tactic and stayed on his feet and was much the better for it. Bowen scored and made one, and could have had a hattrick. Lets hope that performance see's our mini slump done with.

"Disaster. I've been getting a lot of grief from West Ham fans giving it 'massive', non bloody stop. I had to turn my phone off at one point."

West Ham xG - 1.67
Chelsea xG - 1.03

Chelsea definitely deserved to win though, they did have more possession after all..

Also good to see that King Arthur's wondergoal apparently had the same chance of going in as Michail's attempt from the halfway line.
