Chelsea vs Bayer Leverkusen (Friendly) Friday 8th August 19:00 GMT

[Sconnie Blue]

Hato can tackle

 

[Sexyfootball]

Hato looking good so far

 

[Snedger]

Some encouraging performances tonight, and loving Estevao already.

But I’m really not sure about Delap. Just looks a bit out of his depth and not sure if he really suits what’s happening at Chelsea. I see him moving on next summer unless there’s a dramatic change in his game in the coming months.

 

[Sconnie Blue]

Delap’s game needs a lot of fine tuning. Can’t get involved

 

[BluesPower]

debut for Gittens, let's go!

 

[Sexyfootball]

Joao Pedro for Delap

James for Gusto

Gittens for George

 

[Scott Harris]

Lovely football from Gittens there.

 

[JanErik]

James looks like he drops some weight

 

[BluesPower]

Lovely football from Gittens there.

And Hato getting that pass to him

 

[Drogba1]

How's Essugo looking?

 

[Sexyfootball]

Joao Pedro really does look like the undisputed starting striker ... immediately involved, and Estevao probably should have scored his second.

 

[acaeus]

Heh That was a terrible finish by Estevao.

 

[bluedave]

Gittens looks like he could be the player we hoped Mudryhk would be. Impressed so far.

 

[DarkMata]

Gittens got some magic feet.

 

[Cap]

Gittens looks like an exciting player. So much to look forward to this season.

 

[Sconnie Blue]

How's Essugo looking?

It’s hard to gauge given how in control we are. Few reckless challenges.

 

[All Barco no bite]

How's Essugo looking?

Looks steady

 

[DarkMata]

Estavao definitely looks better on the wing

 

[Sconnie Blue]

Anselmino finally

 

[Scott Harris]

Neto's work rate tracking back is excellent, but I wish he would get his head up when he's attacking. He just runs and hopes for the best. Estevao looked a lot more deliberate with his wing play.
