Unbelievable scenes

Last minute winner from Conventry?!

Olise and Eze are back, and Palace are cookin

Watkins didn't score but has two more assists to his name. He should be topping the assists charts now

Attack Vs defence problem

From 3-0 to 3-3 omo

Andrey Santos finally lost a game as a starter for Strasbourg, who fell 1-0 to Lille courtesy of a huge defensive error. Santos was one of their best performers - joint highest rated on sofascore.

43/51 passes
4 tackles
2× dribbled past
7/12 ground duels won (most)
1/2 aerial duels won
2 key passes (most).
1 big chance created

Another solid performance for our boy. Strasbourg themselves have been in really good form of late, and that was shown here by the fact that they only lost due to a poor error at the back, limited Lille to just six shots and created more chances.

As for Enzo, he should run to the hospital and undergo the surgery. Not much to play for anyways

Jackson's case is a really curious one. So, so good in the buildup, but so below average in the box. Hold up play excellent, exceptional ability to turn defenders from the hold up position, has got a enviable combination of pace and power, and is more fleet footed than most strikers. But as soon as it's time to score, he often looks like he's in the wrong profession.

Something has to be done this off-season. I hope he recognizes that.

What is paining me the most is not even the opportunities that registered officially as chances/shots, but the ones that did not materialize.

• the Jackson 1 v 1 from Enzo's pass
• gusto's poorly hit pass when Jackson was set for a tap in
• caicedo's poor touch killing a 2 v 1 counter
• followed shortly by Madueke's useless dribble instead of spotting Jackson for a tap in
• chilwell running with the ball for no reason instead of setting Sterling up for a tap in.

Not to mention the numerous promising counters that we killed by backwards/ sideways passes/useless turning/ball hogging.

Add the shots that we actually missed, and you have one of the most horrendous displays of profligacy I've seen in a while.

Itsrm:
This is not an example of a day Palmer didn't turn up.

I interpreted it as him lauding Palmer for being at the heart of the chances we created (and eventually missed). So if no Palmer, we for no see chances to waste in the first place.

Maybe I'm interpreting it wrongly anyways.

Itsrm:
Are you sure we watched the same match? Every good thing we did today came through Palmer.

You're making his point.

Lmao

We're not even playing like a team chasing an equaliser

Why did sterling pause there

Chilwell is another fool

I cannot believe the amount of foolishness I have witnessed today

Nice one

fredoooooo:
Fear catch me there

That was the second time. He try am with KDB earlier

Abeg o

Gusto abeg no dey throw leg again

Caicedo wtf??

Wetin be all these na

Omo I don see am clear
See robbery

That thing no touch e hand?

Gallagher dey spoil ball sha

Enzo's passing improved as the game wore on.

Poor control kills a 2v1

Once again, the simplest of things

Omo these players dey gba

The simplest of things are now an issue

I cannot believe my eyes

Jackson has done that nonsense that I hate again. Why TF are you holding onto the ball when there are obvious passing options?? He will display excellent hold up okay, then mess it up with ball hogging.

Gallagher no just sharp sha

Na Gallagher even dey play wing

Osalobua

🚨OFFICIAL! Chelsea XI to take on Manchester City in the FA Cup Semi Final!

Petrovic; Gusto, Chalobah, Thiago Silva, Cucurella; Caicedo, Enzo; Madueke, Gallagher (c), Jackson; Palmer

( via Chelseafc)

who dey play left wing?

Jackson will probably play there, with Palmer as false nine. Or Palmer will play as a 10, with Jackson and Madueke up front.

At this point I think there can be very little doubt about who will be relegated. The three that came up this season, are likely going down.

drisham:
Imagine my shock

At their home again

Mind you, Barca managed just one shot on target in the entire match. Astonishing considering the firepower they possess, and a huge statement from our defence.

timbros:
Wow!

Massive win... Can the girls deliver UWCL as goodbye gift to Emma Hayes?

I'd still keep my hopes down cos they've been underwhelming this season.

drisham:
Does the away goal rule stand in women football??

Nope. It's the same as the men.
