Lucas straight up assaulted Xavi there with that elbow, come on

Deserves a long suspension for that

I had to double check that it was PSV, not PSG.

Unless things turn around soon, Slot is going to get sacked before the January transfer window.

Complete collapse seems to be what's happening.

Bayern got very very lucky they didnt concede 5+ today.

Our depth is absurd compared to previous years

Well, we've conceded 9 goals in the last two games. But at least they were both away from home against PSG and Arsenal, two of the better teams in Europe. Would have felt a lot worse if it was Forest and PSV, for example.

Performance was decent, but they need to stay switched on defensively. Far too many mental lapses against a team of PSG's quality, and you'll get punished for those at this level.

Read on Twitter


Race for the top eight is interesting. I was initially against this UCL format because I feel like results are a bit more inconsequential but avoiding the playoff rounds is definitely something to strive for.

Next up for Chelsea is a trip to Bergamo to take on another team on 10 points. Actually we go to Italy twice in the next three CL evenings to play Atalanta and then Napoli. Tricky fixtures ahead.

Inter feels robbed on that penalty.

Looks like Pool was threatening a lot more but the defender headed the ball, McAlister didn't even touch it and yet drew the foul?

Went to the Club Brugge vs Arsenal game.
Watching the way Arsenal play in real life is really impressive. They control all aspects of the game so well.
Incredible goals from Madueke and Martinelli!
