Terrace Talk: Chelsea - Only a taxi-driver in Amsterdam saved us a hiding
Conte gave us a tactical masterclass in Spain, and the players executed their individual roles with precision and concentration, but also with flair — it really was an exhilarating game to watch.
To go from that to what we witnessed at the Bridge against City is barely comparable but there is no getting away from the fact that City hey were better than us in every department. Indeed we should take comfort from the fact that we managed to lose by just one goal. That said, it was one of the most comprehensive 1-0 defeats I have ever witnessed. Any chance we stood faded the moment Morata had to leave the field. Without him we looked completely toothless. Only a rogue taxi-driver in Amsterdam stopped us taking a real hiding.
