Old boys

With all the talk this season being of youth and even today gilmour will get the headlines, just wanted to say well done to giroud, Willian, Pedro and alonso for turning up when we need them. All playing out of their skins and helping us get where we need to be. Don't get me wrong I'm not wanting to keep any come the summer but they're proving valuable at the minute. Special mention for Pedro, you can see physically he's not what he was at his peak but the footballing IQ is top top class

About time they delivered, long may that continue (until the end of the season).
Youth have been carrying us this season.

Pedro's a silent warrior when he's in the zone like today. In terms of attacking midfielders who can manipulate space the way he does, the only player of his generation I'd take over him is Muller. Football brain is immaculate.

Pedro & Giroud are the two players of this current old guard that in a perfect world we'd convince to stay as fringe options. Both true specialists in their roles & both criminally underappreciated their entire careers.

Agreed with that Pedro comment. In his prime he was deadly for Barca with that movement.

Willian has been great all season you wums.

First piece of Reece James being used in midfield, could be foreshadowing the midfield that will play in upcoming matches...particularly against Bayern.

Willian has been patchy all season. One game great, the next completely useless.

Yesterday, he was much better. Although, he still frustrated me with his inaccurate 10 yard passes.

Chelsea have performed much better with the older heads of Pedro, Willian and Giroud in the team. Rudiger is a good defender, Zouma is a complete joke.

Zouma is a complete joke.
-------------------------------------------------
There's something too adorable about his terrible composure & control of the ball. Flashbacks to the Sinclair/Duberry days. Even after that horrible error yesterday (which was kind of Alonso's fault too) I couldn't bring myself to be angry cos I expected no less.

Definitely sell him, we can do better, but do it regrettably
