Terrible performance from Chelsea.
We still have the same problems from last season but anyone who thought we would resolve them all in a flash will have a long season.
Hazard was not on his game today and Iva and matic were both as poor as they have been for the last 12 months.
The subs came far too late for us too.
Cannot fathom why it took until the 80th to make any changes.
It was a good first half performance from pool though and deserved their lead at half time. They faded in the 2nd half but I think that was more them trying to protect what they had rather than Chelsea improving.
Oh well onwards and upwards and congratulations to Liverpool. Thoroughly deserved the 3 points.
Poor performance

Nice contributions...
Rather than having digs why not actually contribute.
There is a reason I haven't been on here in nearly a year.
I congratulate Liverpool on the win and performance and you come back with that.
Nice to see you win with grace

Fair article.
Your dressing room doesn't look right. Unity is the key, I thought Conte would bring it back, but it doesn't look like it and the Luiz signing may be a factor in that. Could be another long season for you unless Conte can get a grip of it.
Onwards and upwards for us.

I think there is some passion back in the dressing room to be honest and that showed in our first few games.
Your boys were better than us tonight. We have 1 or 2 poor players which doesn't help with how we play as a team.
As I say there is no way we are going to improve overnight and it will take time. Maybe another transfer window or two to actually get conte his players in

In fairness, is half 10 on a Friday - doubt anyone is sober!
Decent game though, don't understand what Chelsea were trying to achieve with how they played.
Liverpool. Started well, got the goals (both very good btw) and tried to manage the game.
Second half was a bit odd. Liverpool looked to contain, Chelsea didn't really seem that intent on attacking. No subs until 83 mins was just weird.

Strange game,I expected far more commitment from Chelsea. It looked almost as if, psychologically, they were beaten before the game started, they just didn't look settled. It was hard to see what their game plan was, esp playing at home.
Good post thruandthru.

Cheers Jimmy.
I think we were trying to play on the counter... although didn't do it.
To carry on with that after going 1 down was fatal.
Cracking strike from Henderson though

I've just said elsewhere that we might be in for a bit of a wait before he spanks one in like that again.
Chelsea for me tonight were as poor if not poorer than most of last season. It looked like they were rattled before a ball was kicked.i can't say I recall any positive counter attacking the 90+ minutes.
I like the sound of your manager though. He looks and sound like a Jurgen Mk. 2.

Chelsea were not really that bad. Their main problem was that Liverpool outplayed them in the first half and held their own in the second half. Both teams played exciting attacking football. In the end, the better team on the day won.

Matic is a strange one. Looked a real colossus at first when he re-joined for Chelsea's PL title win. Has looked very average since.
Hazard has regressed since that title winning season too.
