We lost 1-0 to Sunderland at the Stadium Of Light. Well deserved win for them. Our strikers seem to have lost their shooting boots. Something needs to change.
Also we have won in the second round of the EFL cup by beating Stevenage 2-1. The game was slow in the first half. Luke Wilkinson scored for Stevenage and that caused a moment of panic. But then Michy Batshuayi scored the equalizer in the 61st minute. I made a bunch of changes around the hour mark, bringing on Pedro, Joao Moutinho and Victor Moses. We kept peppering the goalkeeper with shots and then finally Willian the Brazilian scored the last minute winner which made sure we won the game. A much needed win after the two bad performances against Manchester City and Sunderland. We should have scored more but I will take the win.
A drab draw against Bournemouth in game number three this season. I mean we fought and held on, but the late equalizer by Benik Afobe was annoying. Michy Batshuayi scored for us though.
Game no. 4 in the Premier League.
Chelsea draw against Arsenal 0-0. Happy with the point. Our team is progressing slowly but surely. Yeah I get it, that there will be calls to attack more, but the way my Chelsea side nullified Arsenal was very impressive. And more importantly it is a clean sheet for Courtois. He also saved a penalty which was fantastic. One of the better performances by my players.
Game no. 5
Chelsea beat West Brom 2-0 away from home. 2 great goals by Michy Batshuayi helped us secure the win. Also it was an excellent performance by the defense.
We have somehow won against Sheffield Wednesday in the 3rd round of the EFL Cup. They were a hard team to break down and showed a lot of character. Victor Moses's winning goal was enough to help us progress to the next round.
