Right so that's me done. A great start to the season in terms of entertainment at Stamford Bridge. Not sure Jose Mourinho always likes it like that, though.
See you soon.

Quote MessageI saw it in real time. It was a difficult one to make out. I think it was a bit harsh but it was a decision the referee had to make.

With you on that one Warind. Don't think too much can be read into the result and Chelsea did come away with a point. Jose Mourinho has just alluded to his players not being in top condition. That's not a situation which will last for long.

Quote MessageThey didn't have chances against 11. The team was playing very, very well in the first half. In the second, in one minute, it was a penalty, red card and the goal - 2-2. If you have 10 men and are winning you can defend well and try to find a strategy but to play with 10 men and try to win the game is more difficult. I would say we were the best team with 11 players and with 10 we fought hard, some fighting at the limit of their condition.

Quote Message"It wasn't that nice being a defender, I would have liked it to be tighter but a point at Stamford Bridge is always welcome. When you come back from one goal down here, it's a big thing. If we did that at the home of the champions, you know we've put in a shift."

The merits of those long-haul pre-season tours might be called into question after that performance from Chelsea. However, they aren't the biggest travellers this summer. Both Manchester City and Liverpool have chalked up over 20,000 miles each so it will be interesting to see how they do against West Brom and Stoke respectively.

So Swansea were the only team to score twice at Stamford Bridge last season and they've done it again today. Great game to kick off the season, although Chelsea might not think so. Still a few cobwebs, clearly.

Free-kick swung in by Nemanja Matic but easily headed away. Swansea on the attack now and win a free-kick on the near side near the half-way line.

Nope. Chelsea head clear as Eden Hazard streams forward and draws a foul from Ashley Williams. A few signs that the Belgian is starting to find his stride.
