In our last two games against Spurs we have conceded four goals.
The final pass / cross have all come from the same player and from our left hand side.
Ericson has good delivery and our marking wasn't always the best but we should have worked harder on closing down these crosses.
Other teams will play on this weakness!

Every time they went wide especially with Erickson I was shouting don't let them cross,

Clinical beat style yesterday but I will take it every time. Alonso has been a big surprise to me this season BUT going forward, his defensive attributes are poor and we need a natural left footed player behind him. Pedro has also surprised me but once again he is an impact player not a 90 minute one and yesterday he disappeared after the first ten minutes. I cannot see at his age, Bats being our answer up front or as a sub and we need to buy urgently. What is it with Courtois and his slow clearances from a back pass, he puts us and himself in all sorts of trouble; get it away. I thought Erickson was absolutely superb yesterday and I would love him or similar to pick some of our players.

We should've done better to close down Eriksen but we have to remember not every team has a player with delivery like him and finishers like Kane/ Alli. I'm delighted with the win and can't wait to celebrate the double!

Well said Saim. c1915 you are so negative mate I almost question your love of our club?

G8: That was brutal. I have supported Chelsea for 62 years so if you know your Chelsea history you will know I have been to hell and back several times. I don't love Chelsea, I support them but never get obsessive about them and want to see improvements as much as any supporter. If anyone thinks the current team will mount a serious challenge in Europe then they are delusional, the team needs improvements. For me, on the left of defence 'if' Ake fails to impress, a play maker like Fabregas but not as fragile and a centre forward able to head the ball and less temperamental; never a Costa fan myself.

C1915 I'm thinking around the same thing, if we have any ambition of realistically wining the champions league next season or having another good crack at next season premiership, we need to replace Gary Cahill, matic, and Costa, I love chelsea as much as anybody but I will not close my eyes and pretend our players are better than they are, when they play bad for a long time, I also think I'm being positive as I'm saying 3 quality signings and I think we could win the champions league, that's pretty positive in my book.
