Like I said don't get your panties in a twist. It's all good if you're a fan of the old and outdated school of late subs for players who were useless for 99% of the game. But I'm not.

'better late than never' in your opinion. All I see is a coach who's afraid to take risks in what's left of a season with NOTHING to fight for. RLC should've started or at least oscar should've been nowhere near the squad.

Undeserved favoritism for players such as ivanovic,matic,etc is what got us to this position in the first place so yes I'm not a fan of players being in the first 11 based on reputation alone.

Go enjoy whatever team you're supporting mate. Why stress yourself reading a thread of mostly frustrated fans this season?

Equaliser was down to oscar giving away the ball and west ham broke with speed. Yep poor marking from Iva and courtois can't even catch a cold these days.

But it all started from that one mistake. I'm going to be highly critical of oscar as he's been horrible,arguably from day one. Gets on my nerves when players with room to GROW and DEVELOP such as kenedy and RLC are kept out because good ol' oscar somehow casts this great illusion of being great which has worked on mourinho and now,guus.

Baffling. Can't get my head around it really. MOTM fabregas,by a country mile. The others...haih.

Hmm okay yep u do have a point. Guess the utter frustration of watching chelsea (specifically oscar) makes me post some weird stuff sometimes. Apologies bro.

I guess I just wish RLC started and we might even have won the match,as exhibited by his dangerous runs into the box. He made 2 good attacking runs/movements,one resulted in a (debatable) penalty and the other left him with an unmarked shot in the box. That was within a space of 10 minutes,imagine if he got 45 or 90. But as always these things are subjective,he might've got 90 minutes and still have an atrocious game.

Yes Guus tried to rectify that mistake..but man he took his time doing it. The biggest consolation is it did have an impact (hence it wasn't pointless, as you said) , and hopefully he trusts him enough to give him more playing time.

p s: oscar must be an absolute beast in training,that's my only theory so far. Well I'd rather have kevin de bruyne who doesn't train as 'hard' (as infamously claimed by jose) but brings his A game during matchday. Enough of players who flatter to deceive, and I hope conte realises oscar's true 'ability' really soon.(preferably when the transfer window's still open)

Loftus cheeeekkkk

Brilliant skill by mikel to spread it out to the right as well

Hahaha I think that was a bit unlucky

Arrgghhhh so close from rubeeennnn

Penalty won by patoooooo wooooottttttt!

Puts it away confidently!!!

Great shot by Pato,leading up to pedro's tap in.
Willian and hazard don't take nearly enough shots like that when they're out wide. It's always dribble,dribble,and dribble some more

Nice,another debut

Now a cleansheet will make this a perfect performance

They're trying to get our players hurt. Sheesh. Glad loftus cheek got up from that. Obscene challenge from hutton

Cleansheet. Wow. Miss those!

Welcome Antonio Conte!I think he'll do pretty well with us. Italy play some slick stuff,though I'm not sure how much they've evolved under him. Any Italy fans care to enlighten us?

Paul Parker saying the arsenal team lack balls on the live post match discussion. Astro Supersport censorship team must've had their jaws on the floor

Great to see loftus cheek,miazga and pato in there

Oscar..hmm not so much.

Team looks shaky. No cutting edge,pato has had zero service

Defense has been absolutely horrible. Back four really playing like school boys.

Oscar off please. As usual.

Pato doing all sorts of party tricks except doing his primary job which is putting the ball in the bloody net.

Movement has improved slightly though.

Ivanovic rubbish as usual. False dawn,mikel saved us from going 2 down.

Loftus cheek needs to up his aggression considerably. He's been much much too soft in the fifty2 challenges.
