Chelsea v CPFC Match Thread

The world seems a brighter place for that result. All points are welcome but far more so when they're unexpected.

Only managed to catch updates on BBC Sport whilst I’ve been out.

Feels like a game of 2 halves as far as our performance is concerned?

 

[Eaglecoops]

A totally deserved point based on the second half performance. Doucoure made a big difference and if fully fit should always play.

Well done Palace.

Did not expect anything from today, an excellent point and now gives us time to bed in the newer players before the game against Leicester. Thank you OG and the team!

 

[Willo]

I am delighted with the point. I readily admit that I never envisaged us getting anything from the game.
A positive result and I suspect I shall raise a glass or two in a Public House tonight !
Jolly well done.👍

Reportedly this is the first point we have taken from Stamford Bridge since 1995. Good job by all. UTP.

 

[Dogburger]

So much better second half , well earned point but am I being greedy thinking we could have had 3 ? Thought they were there for the taking at the end but I think all the players were knackered .

Great to see Doucoure back to something like his best , like having a new signing in the middle of the park and completely bossed it .Gave Wharton that yard of space to get his passes away, I can see only good things with that pairing .

Well deserved point. The whole team worked hard and played well. Could have gone either way at the end, but 1-1 a very fair result.

Well done to Hendo for some magnificent saves, he gets a rough press on here sometimes, but he made some key saves today.

Nice to be off 0 points.

 

[Hannes]

Sarr has quick feet, so obviously does Nketiah. The could form a good weapon on the break.

We beat them in 2017 when Wilf & Benteke scored.

 

[Dnjc]

That was tense. But enjoyed that. I’m excited for QPR and Leicester.

 

[PalazioVecchio]

after us selling so much talent recently, i would really like to Congratulate the manager and all those Eagles on the pitch today.

Heroic.

 

[VinceHilaire]

Henderson’s best game for us!

Made a couple of world class saves

We beat them in 2017 when Wilf & Benteke scored.

After that it was 13 straight defeats, till today.

Saved me the trouble of looking it up as I knew we'd beaten them at the Bridge during this PL stint. I think we've beaten all the Big 6 away in the league since promotion except for Spurs.

 

[MrRobbo]

Great performance

Guehi, Hendo and Wharton were immense today.

Will be great to have another attacking option in Nketiah.

I think they said it was the first draw since 1995

 

[eritheagle]

I think they said it was the first draw since 1995

Yeah. We won there under Pardew and Allerdyce.

 

[CT Charlie]

Solid game by everyone, front to back. Kamada seemed a little nibble-happy, and Munoz had a rocky start, but I thought we played about 60 minutes of very good football against talented squad of multi-millionaires. Tempted to single out Henderson and Guehi for praise, I then realized the entire back played well. As did the midfield. And our attackers did well with the few opportunities they were given.

 

[Lanzo-Ad]

We have a very good squad now, strenght in depth in the key positions, we could have won all three games if we had a bit of luck, apart from Man City we are as good as anyone
