Like last season once a team gets on a roll they just seem unstoppable.

Whatever weakness exists in Chelsea like Leicester last season, they are just churning result after result and what happens is that momentum just carries them through everything.

Frustrating to watch.

Agreed. At times it's like they have an extra man out there. Unreal amount of work rate to win the ball back. Think it's time for Kante to be deemed world class. He deserves better then playing for that bunch of cunts.
 
They're definitely not playing to his strengths.

He's been rather lazy besides that though.

With most players you know what you are getting. They don't change their style of play, so you either try and play to their strengths, especially if you are talking strikers or you fail to get the best from them.

This whole business of players having to run round like headless chickens just to show they care is bo!!ocks in my opinion.
 
Zaha would frustrate the hell out of every single one of us. He's like a slightly better Townsend (better dribbler), he'll produce a moment of magic every now and then but besides that he's no better then what we have to be honest.

Yeah, his recovery rate is staggering but in the main it is just a relentless set of wins that is impossible to match and it saps the energy of the chasing pack.

And what few have said or understood is that for the first time in a decade or more, this has been achieved without Terry, Cech, Drogba and Lampard.

Hugely significant.
 
The refs been really soft, should be on about 5 bookings.
They always seem to be so on chavs and Man U though Rojo should have gone again midweek with another off the floor two footed studs up challenge.
Fabregas escapes any punishment for slapping someone in retaliation unlike dembele and others who have raised hands

It says something when they have Victor Moses and Marcus Alonso at full backs with the likes of Gary Cahill in defence.

Zaha is exactly the type of unpredictable player we need. Him or Bartley would give us sonething we don't possess enough of.

It is a bit easier when you're not traveling in Europe to prepare to face opponents fresh after a week of training from the off.
Yet I suppose they can afford to buy another 5 players to compensate for that next season.
 
Zero style of play at Palace - try and play football, but ultimately their players aren't good enough to resort to knocking it to Benteke and hope for the best. Pardew is the absolute worst and I can't wait for Palace to get relegated
