Totally agree. As I said yesterday...

I think midfield was more the issue. Not nearly as snappy and alert as last week. Their attack carved through the midfield and the pressure on the centre backs was relentless at times. But... we need to remember that Chelsea are a very good side and will do that to many teams this season.
