Both full backs were abysmal last night - we might as well have started without them they were that ineffective both defensively and offensively. It's a close one between Lowe and Malone but for me Flo needs a run at right back as Smith unfortunately isn't good enough at this level.
Chelsea were superb, for me the second best team I've seen this season after Spurs who were just as effective but better to watch, and I think we actually turned up against Spurs where we were very pedestrian last night. They play percentages brilliantly, every time we got the ball their shape was unreal and they allowed us no space whatsoever. Hazard was brilliant - fancy flicks but not just for the sake of it, 3 or 4 times he was a few seconds in front of his teammates with his thinking otherwise it could have been a bigger scoreline. Both their wing backs also very impressive although as already stated our full backs made it so easy for them.
