Sorry to sound like a sanctimonious prick, and I know you're not trying to be malicious, but posting a photo of this bloke is a bit OTT, and personally I think the photo should be deleted.

I thought it was a very poor game overall, we have got used to quality football very quickly though . . . when you look back at the football. . . Just bitty and shitty, aided and abetted by the predictably woeful officials. Chelsea are disjointed mercenaries at best.

Indeed. He was a bit of cock at the end with lots squaring up and pushing. He couldn't even get his ' goal non celebration ' right. He was about to give it big and then realised that he didn't want to go large as it was us. Twunt!
I partly agree . . . More constructively, it would be good to know who how why etc . . . . Track record, fake CV, was a weapons grade c*** at corners for ten years before getting a doctorate in set piece mastery? Who knows? Italian? Welsh? Bass player from an Abba tribute act?
Whatever . . . . It does appear to be a weakness for us . . . And has been for years. But . . . IF, currently, thats because we're better than virtually everyone else at actually playing football, I can live with it.
Re Adingra spot on, I honestly thought he’d be the one to be withdrawn.
Steele didn’t cover himself in glory particularly on the second goal, he simply has to come for the corner…. Made up for it shortly afterwards though.
So frustrating
He was great for us, we were great for him . . . It could have gone either way in the summer.
He's history now and most of us won't remember him fondly after today. I thought his gamesmanship was proper chelsea.

30 minutes in I was worried it might be 5.0 they were all over us.

Failure to replace Mac and Caciedo allows teams to attack to easilyDefensively we were shocking today… that’s why we lostplain and simple. It’s not too surprising given our current injury/suspension list… but to be honest we’ve been conceding goals fun in the PL all season… it needs to be addressed.
That said, I expected a defeat today and was pleasantly surprised that we were as competitive as we were.
Looking forward to Brentford already.
….and failure to turn domination of possession and way more shots into testing Big Bob much more than we did.

Just got back , igor was immense, our midfield like Athens is non existent, Mitoma looked good when came on and Pedro wow he’s a powerhouse, but the midfield is a proper concern

I don't think you sound sanctimonious.
His photo is out in the public domain and much as we post pictures of players and other BHA staff when we call them out for something good, I think we should be allowed to do the same if they're worthy of the opposite.
Now I'm sure this guy tries really hard at his job but he just seems to be failing in his role.
No reason to not call him out.
However, saying that, others can find BHA first team set piece coach with a simple Google search
and I'm not a vicious person and don't like being mean, upsetting people in any way so I'll delete his picture.
I'm sure we're all sick of being reminded just how poor our set pieces are anyhow.
How many opportunities did we get to shoot - but instead tried to walk the ball into the net. ffs.
Yep. Still has loads more goal attempts than Chelsea though……bit of an odd performance
I did. He pointed straight to the spot - but must have been baffling in the ground.
It's been an odd game today. Given we're down, I think, 10 starting players,I didn't really expect a great deal. To take it that close, after the game in Athens, is impressive.
Having said that, you'll win very, very few games going down 2-0 in the first 20 minutes. That's a statistical fact. Mr Bloom will confirm. So all the hot air about reffing is all well and good, but is not the reason we lost.
Still, a good effort today and our Stiffs are getting good opportunities to stake a claim for a starting place.

Think it shows the squad currently lacks depth which hopefully is partially addressed in January. Playing the u21s is good for their development but not so many at the same time
