Always likely to be a training game and so it transpired so difficult to take too much away from the game. However, DID Fabregas play? Terry was booked because Rahman was out of position again. On the ball Loftus- Cheek is a very good player but as Mourinho said his play off the ball is poor, he ambles about and we have enough trouble with Fabregas doing that. i know it will upset Traore fans but at the moment and possibly always he is too light weight for PL football. Very interesting to see who we field for our next game.

Thought fabregas was good, just did what he had to do, sat deeper and hit long passes, I assume according ro instructions. Very poor opposition but we dominated 90 mins and could have scored 10 or more. No complaints.

You can only beat who is in front of you. Total dominance for 90 mins will do the team wonders. Hazard getting a goal, Traore scoring, loftus cheek getting 90mins. Fabregas played well because he was allowed to, most premiership teams press high which is why he has struggled this season. Good attacking performance from Rahman. Dave doesn't offer what Rahman did today, but offers a lot more defensively. Would be interested to see Dave and Rahman on each side of defence.

Still don't see the hype around RLC

Wasn't his finest game.

Exellent performance all round. Fabregas back to his best and dominating games. RLC did ok and will get better with time. Traore is a fantastic talent and will be a great addition up front, offers so much more than Remi. Sad to hear JT announce he is leaving at the end of the season though.

Surprised where rlc played today. Would prefer him deeper and breaking forward.

Think part of the reason he's played further forward is his laziness without the ball. Imagine him playing as a CM and him not tracking back at all.

Thought exactly the same. For a kid who wants to become a regular in the team. He should be busting his balls, chasing everything down. Jose was right about him, he's lazy. He'll be another Josh McEachran. Few games and then off to lower league.
