    This could end up 5 or 6 and Chelsea aren't even trying.

    Kovacic has been great tonight. Never thought I’d see the day. Actually went forward and not backwards.

    Seriously? You're having me on. I know my picture is grainy but he can't be on the pitch.

    I don't think we should sack Sarri, and certainly replacing him with Super Frankie Lampard is a no from me Jeff.

    Since the League Cup final we've actually been decent.

    They had three kids on the bench plus a ‘keeper due to being able to have as much as you want by the look of it.

    Life without Hazard will be a sad one. Fuck watching La Liga regularly.

    Pulisic and Tammy Abraham will more than fill the void.

    Do I now have to 'support' Hazard in the tragic way that United fans have supported Ronaldo since he left? Sod that.

    The ban will get uplifted so they’ll spunk a lot of it on absolute awfulness from Italy no doubt.

    They had us on the ropes shape-wise from the opening minute, they always had an opening, and when we didn't take advantage of the half chances we had in the first half, I kind of knew it was over.

    The shit Giroud has taken over the years proven absolute nonsense with this Europa run. Bloke clearly did his groin in the first half and carried on like it was nothing.

    The lack of Ramsey and Bellerin absolutely killed our season dead. Kosielny is a hero.

    That fucking awful camera angle was a perfect image for how awful a decision it was to put the final in Baku.

    Your full backs were absolutely all over the place from the first minute. Kolasinac, my word he is bad.

    Cristiano won the Ballon d'Or and the Champions League here it's a little different isn't it.

    I left at 3-0 and I'm not sure if anything else popped up so I'm not going to put it on him.

    Problem is he's literally our only outlet from the left and he had a worse pass accuracy than Petr Cech. He can be very good but he's lost any confidence he used to have so he just does the same thing to the point of predictability and he's not great at it.

    That's a word class header which causes Arsenal to fall apart and makes it 10 goals in 12 games.

    I can see where phonics is coming from on Giroud, having now supported a team with him often in it for 18 months. Sometimes he fucks things up to the extent you want to bludgeon his French bonce over the crossbar, but then at other times he does things that are really sublime and even quite clinical, and you never get less than the fullest of effort for every minute he is on the pitch.

    Exactly, and the more it matters, the more likely he's going to be at the center of it when it goes your way. He has massive flaws in his game but they're made up by his human qualities.

    As well as that, there's a reason why Griezemann and Hazard want him in the team, he makes them better.

    Giroud is fucking top class. World cup winner.

    You can't win the league with him as your main goalscorer, as we've proven, but he brings out the best in players around him and can be a part of a great side.

    It seems unlikely that he will re-join Chelsea, so I wouldn't bother.

    Apparently Kovacic has never been knocked out of Europe. He’s won four in a row but dunno about before then.

    Its one of those stats that's worded in a way that group stages either don't count or he could not have played in the match where they were mathematically knocked out.

    It was probably the best betting game of the year in all honesty.
