The entitlement from some in this thread... Christ.

Well no, because that would have actually been funny rather than just taking the piss out of fans who actually support the players on their team.

I don't think there's anything he could have done to have won the game tonight and I'm not going to worry about losing 2-1 away at a top 4 team.

I don't think it's funny or banter. It's just stupid.

Perhaps, maybe he'd have done nothing or maybe caused us to concede a third. I trust Smith to make those decisions because I think he knows better than I or you do.

It's puerile, doesn't add anything to the discussion and only serves to antagonise people.

Yeah we'd have walked it against Chelsea otherwise....

Do you really need it explained to you?

Clear MoTM - worth every penny.

Hit and miss. There's certainly talent there but his positioning needs work and he has a tendency to hoof it. Would start Engels over him.

Absolutely pathetic post. Sorry.

Just totally outclassed by the players he was up against and he just looked totally overawed by the occasion. Luiz back starting next game for me, 100%.

He's a live wire - can't fault him for effort.

He was actually a lot better tonight than recently IMO - much better passing.

A mixed bag of performances tonight - Hourihane and Targett stood out as being especially poor. I think Luiz showed just how much better than Hourihane he is by coming on and holding his own against some quality midfielders. I don't have any issues with Wesley tonight. We need to stop lumping it to him and play to his feet. We need passes that play him in behind rather than crosses to his head. If he had Pulisic and Willian supporting him, I'm sure he'd not have any worries.
