I'm wondering if this Chelsea team that won against Brighton tonight is the same Chelsea that lost against Aston Villa in their last Premier League game. Initially, I was not expecting them to win this game but they managed to win, I hope this victory awakens their winning spirit and I hope to see them further extend the winning to the premier league and to enable them step up in the table.
It was a surprised to we the Chelsea fans because we were expecting Brighton to win as other fans were expecting but judging based on the game, Chelsea deserve the win they got. We didn't start our best men just as Brighton didn't start their but the atmosphere is different since it isn't the premier league so maybe that's why Brighton didn't go home with the victory. I just hope the boys can get some motivation from this victory and win their next game in the Premier league. Sadly Nicholas Jackson won't be available for the next premier league game due to suspension but Broja is back from injury and he'll be starting and from the few minutes he was on the pitch, he's looking promising, our next match against Fulham should be a win as well considering players like mudrky has begun to see more starting call up and he isn't disappointing with his display.
A win is a win but i would say Brighton actually fielded in a weaker starting line than their usual line up, Chelsea also changed there to formation with the likes of Enzo missing out. But definitely a great win for Chelsea, if it was before this competition looks more like just a cup match to Chelsea but with the state of the team i would say they needed this win and if possible should build on it more and plan on scooping this competition home.
We needed this break because it was looking like nothing is working for us and that can be very frustrating. Cucurella was decent and so were other player especially C. Palmer and I'll love him to be given more strating role by Pochettino. He was the reason Jackson got the first goal and also played a part in the disallowed goal. He was playing the playmaker role very well and the whole game yesterday was interesting to watch. It was the first time I watched Chelsea game in like forever and was satisfied with everybody. The goalkeep also put on his best performance with the saves he made although he cause alot of discomfort to the defense with his mistakes but he still made up for them by saving the ball. It was a great game after all and onto the Fulham game we wait on Monday.
