    30 minutes into the 1st half Hazard swapped over from the left to the right, obviously no one noticed that...
    Just wrong on the first part. Isla shouldn't have had his back turned perhaps but then he shouldn't be expecting a top prem keeper to fluff his lines. I blame both of them (Green and Isla) equally.

    The second part is absolutely right. Even Hill defended well against willian to the point where he didn't even play left wing, he just roamed around looking for pockets of space.

        Green should have kicked it into the chelsea half end of. Everyone was expecting it to happen. Thats why Isla was caught out, and did okay to hold Hazard off awhile, but the CMs were also caught out hence no one got to fabregas

            Isla was facing the other direction when green kicked it hence hazard got a run on him initially. When in the corner he then got beaten by the best player in the league with a 1-2. If he'd of blocked him off he'd have thrown himself down and probably got a pen.

            Yet super Hill wouldn't let such a thing happen....like the Swansea game you mean when on the left touchline Ki had the ball (Ki, not Hazard) and Hill backed off and off and off until he was in the middle of the pitch on the edge of our area and rolled it to Bony who scored in injury time costing us 2 massive points on the day.......
            Super Hill, eh? He's earned that respect over five years hard graft. That why, when he fluffed that cross in the first half yesterday, the crowd in the Ellerslie cheered him. And he tried to dampen them down. But heigh ho why not start a well deserved Isla chant next time he f acks up. Because, sadly, he will.

              Sandro. Sitting on the bench, sadly. A calamity of errors.

                As was said, as soon as he went off, graft counted for nothing. Henry may be more loved and barton may run around, but Sandro knew exactly where to be every time.

                    I blame the wind, it was a windy day, and the ball moving 2-3" sideways would have been enough for a sliced mis-kick. So pick on god for that.

                      Unfortunately we dont have the quality of players to come off the bench and do just as good a job as our starting line up

                              Very very true, was worried about it all game, he kept hitting it from under and you see the spin, you can tell its gonna backspin a lot which it did unfortunately.

                                He did 3 kicks prior to that one which just about reached the halfway line... he was also half asleep for most of the match.
                                I wonder if he is super-glued to his line half the time.
