Sure, I think the game plan was spot on
keep it tight and break dangerously and Chelsea did play pretty well.
But our passing was pretty poor through midfield. Loads of simple passes played behind or at the wrong pace which lost all momentum for a break. Thought we looked reasonably threatening at times when Redmond and Brady got on the ball in the Chelsea half, but we struggled to get the ball to them enough and then there was a lack of support from central midfield.
