4-1 was harsh but we were (not surprisingly!) beaten by a better team.

That said, I don’t feel too despondent as, we were in the game at 2-1 until Bamba gave away the penalty which you could also see happening in slow motion as Willian took control of the ball. Bamba will know that it was rash.

I thought that all of the players put in a shift today and can’t complain about any of them. My only observations are that Reid was far too easily swatted off the ball by Luiz (get him on the protein shakes!) and that when Camarasa moved inside after Arter went off, he was much more involved (which is a good thing as he looks to be a decent player). Even Madine won a few headers when he came on....!

So, strangely for a 4-1 scoreline, I still saw lots of positives today.

Two words on our support today: it was both excellent in terms of noise levels and passion (the acoustics at Stamford Bridge meant that I didn’t hear any of the Chelsea fans until 65th minute) and yet utterly pathetic to see so many pissed up blokes actually fighting with each other. Quite shameful.
