Nothing on SBS over here so I can look at my phone for the next couple of hours. The big worry is it is too easy to lose your *%^@ and throw the phone if it is not going well. COYR

Btw don’t know if it’s been said BT sport showing it on YouTube. Still might be uk only. VPN would sort it out if you’re savvy like that.

Yeah only on Optus Sport I think. I just signed up with the NBN with Optus and they threw in the sport for me.

Scrappy so far. Hazard has launched himself, screaming, a couple of times so far but has (mercifully) been ignored.

We look more dangerous, but not by much.

Very marginal but the gk doesn’t get the ball and looks like he just clipped Lacazette. What is var checking? Should be a pen

Lacazette running through, azpilicueta has a big hold of his shirt for the entire run. Why is that not a foul? It would have been a red card as well?

Xhaka skims the bar from 25 yards.

We’re on top need to make it count

Lacazette is getting smashed.

Nice save by Čech too.

Thought Lacazette just hung his for the pen shout. Still just a pen for me. The shirt pull was ludicrous.

Emerson should be in the book for that no doubt. Very lenient ref

Played pretty well tbh but the final ball is letting us down and we need to get Aubameyang into the game. Xhaka and AMN have been excellent, Özil too peripheral.

Chelsea have had some dangerous counters and look increasingly likely to nab one against our pretty ropey defence.

Yeah I thought so. Let’s hope Kante’s knee seizes up at half time. Lacazette working hard and holding his ground brilliantly. Fancy Aubameyang to get the goal though. Soon as he gets a sniff.

Difficult to enjoy it, so tight. We haven't been bad but a few ominous signs near the end of the half.

We have been the better side but Chelsea have had better chances. With all the space he's getting, it's a pity Kolasinac can't play football. Pretty poor game so far.

Pretty even given those last 5 mins with Chelsea on top.
2 big decisions for the pen not given and azpilicueta having more than a handful of Lacazette’s shirt when running through on the gk. the second one probably happens every game and is only evident on the replay.....but if var is only for goals, pens and red cards it could have been looked at. If it was exactly the same in the box everyone would say ‘technically that is a pen’

Notwithstanding all the bollocks of location, connectivity and cost, that is a seriously *%^@ stadium for football. Front row spectators at halfway must be 50m from the play. I’ve never seen such a big behind-goal zone.

The tv coverage is shite too because the cameras are about 5 miles from the pitch

Didn’t even review the shirt pull in the studio. Eidur Gudjonnsen pretending he can’t see Kepa’s head snap back as it hits Lacazette’s leg.

Maybe someone might ask Özil to shift his arse. We can’t do this with 10 men.

You need a taxi to get from the stand to the goal.

Unfortunately with our lack of incisiveness in the final third the game has Chelsea sucker punch written all over it.

Seen the pen again. There is contact from the gk. very minor but it is contact and when we are using var and slowing it down, that bit of contact should be all that is required

If SK could try and actually cross the ball things might look better. The team totally wasted our good play in the first half.

:laughing7: and you don't think the fact that Lacazette " left his legs behind " in classic bullsh**t diving fashion had a bearing on the ref dismissing his claim .

Think Hazard doing the same in our area would you still be baying for a penalty ....?
