  1. 'Fulham are going in the right direction'

    BT Sport

    Former Chelsea winger Joe Cole on BT Sport: "This Fulham team, like most teams, would have been thinking 40 points and getting there as soon as they can. They won't believe the situation they are in.

    "They can start to think about Europe once they get to 40 points. They have been outstanding. They rode some tricky periods of the game tonight. They defended brilliantly well.

    "You have to credit Marco Silva and the club for their recruitment. They are going in the right direction."

  2. 'A special night'

    Fulham goalscorer Willian, speaking to BT Sport: "We deserved the win. We know how difficult it is to play against Chelsea. They are in a difficult moment but we are a really good team. We deserved it and we have to carry on.

    "I had an amazing seven years at Chelsea. I have a big respect for the fans and the club. I play for Fulham now and have to do my best. It was a special night."

    Chris Crowley: Felix looked really good till he lost his head - but what is going on at @ChelseaFC? It’s like a different team.

    It’s party time at Craven Cottage. The home players are doing a well deserved lap of honour and no-one is going home from the home fans.

    There’s bouncing fans everywhere you look - apart from the Chelsea fans of course - as Gala’s Freed From Desire is blared out, sparking a huge singalong. What a day and what a season for Fulham.

  5. 'Fulham deserved it'

    Former England international Peter Crouch on BT Sport: "Fulham are an amazing story. It started right on the opening day.

    "It was a huge performance because Chelsea normally get the result here. The surprising thing was it wasn't really a shock. Fulham deserved it."

  6. Fulham delight

    What an evening for Fulham who now move up to sixth and above Liverpool in the Premier League table.

    It’s now only two wins in 10 matches in all competitions for Graham Potter’s team. The sending off of Joao Felix on his debut proved crucial and he will now miss Chelsea’s next three matches too.

    That kind of sums up where Chelsea are at the moment - nothing is going for them and it’s a tough, tough time for their fans and manager.

    It’s an evening the Fulham fans won’t forget in a hurry. The hosts get the three points.

  7. 'Another painful night for Chelsea'

    "It has been another painful night for Chelsea."

    Mark A Notley: We're in a very low moment right now.. injuries & poor form have us sliding down the table. The pile-in from the media, opposition fans and our own is warranted. This isn't the Chelsea we expect & with all we've spent it's laughable. It's going to be a long season.

    Chelsea should be lucky to get a young, progressive manager like Potter, but it's like they feel entitled to instant success, well, as a Man United fan, I can say it doesn't work that way. Patience is key and if you don't have it, Potter will certainly be successful elsewhere. At what point to the fans start to actually look at the players who have been terrible for a while and the awful recruitment "strategy"?

  12. SUBSTITUTION

    Fulham 2-1 Chelsea

    Fulham make a couple of changes as the edge closer to a massive win.

    The excellent Andreas Pereira is replaced by Dan James while goalscorer Carlos Vinícius makes way for Nathaniel Chalobah.

    We’re into six minutes of injury time. Chelsea need something special to save this one.

  14. CLOSE!

    Fulham 2-1 Chelsea

    Chelsea go route one in an effort to equalise and Kai Havertz breaks clear of the defence. Is he offside? The flag stays down and he lets the ball drop over his shoulder before volleys at goal but Bernd Leno saves.

    Chelsea's inability to score remains their undoing. Since Costa and Hazard left the final third cutting edge has gone. Match stats usually show most possession and most shots, but limited return in terms of goals. Chelsea's defence also far more leaky than previously. Altogether the team is not the sum of the parts.

  16. Fulham 2-1 Chelsea

    Andreas Pereira has delivered some cracking crosses tonight. He pings another right into the middle of the Chelsea box but the visitors are able to clear the danger.

    The 90 minutes are up and there will be six additional minutes.

    Chelsea have spent £400m to be on 10th place. May need extra cover to fill in for Felix's ban. They're certainly a work in progress. Worst transfer of this season was letting Tammy go to Roma.

    Former Leeds United player Lucy Ward on BT Sport: "Chelsea haven't been able to establish relationships on the pitch because of the changes and injuries.

    "They haven't had much luck either."

    I've tried to support Potter as much as possible but enough is enough. He is out of his depth. We need a goal and he leaves our striker on the bench. Absolutely absurd decision.

  20. Fulham 2-1 Chelsea

    Graham Potter's subs have changed the momentum and Chelsea are pressing as we head into the final couple of minutes.

    Chelsea have a corner but it is headed away.
