How on earth has Sterling not been substituted? He has done nothing, but give the ball away and run into defenders.

I cannot get my head round that, Noni Madueke has been Chelsea's most threatening player.
I thought it would be Raheem Sterling coming off.

The concentration levels of Middlesbrough are going to be huge as they are going to be under huge pressure.
At the moment Boro are not creating anything up front, but they don't need to as they are 1-0 up.

As expected Mykhailo Mudryk and Armando Broja have had the call. They're coming on for Chelsea, with Noni Madueke and Enzo Fernandez the men off.
Madueke had looked a threat, but Pochettino takes him off.

Conor Gallagher, Chelsea captain, twists and turns to create some space for a shot but just wide it goes.

They are defending well, Michael Carrick will like Chelsea to play wide and not to go down the middle at them.
He will be relaxed about it at the moment as Chelsea are not creating any clear cut opportunities.

With all the respect in the world, losing to this lot would be an embarrassment and Poch’s only chance of a trophy gone.

Remember, this is just the first leg. Chelsea will have a second chance with the return leg at Stamford Bridge in two weeks' time.
Middlesbrough 1-0 Chelsea
Armando Broja and Mykhailo Mudryk are among the options on the bench for Chelsea. Surely, we'll see them both soon.

Chelsea keep crossing for the striker who is on the bench.

Noni Madueke with a bright burst to get to the byeline after a forceful run for Chelsea, but the cross flies past those in the middle.

It is an easy save for Tom Glover, his positioning was perfect.
A half chance and no more than that for Noni Madueke.
Middlesbrough 1-0 Chelsea
Noni Madueke gets his head on a cross from Enzo Fernandez, but it is all comfortable for home keeper Tom Glover and he holds on to the header.

You can feel the tension about this game, Middlesbrough are going into every tackle and they are winning them.

Evident that Manchester City absolutely fleeced Chelsea for Cole Palmer. Those three misses were inexcusable.
Martin
Middlesbrough 1-0 Chelsea
Isaiah Jones looks a real talent for Middlesbrough and once again he gets to the byeline after the hosts had sprung a quick counter-attack. The cross is towards the back post but Raheem Sterling had tracked back well to win a header inside his own six-yard box.

Alex: What has happened to Chelsea's defence this season. Shocking lack of desire and discipline.
Sam: What does Sterling offer this Chelsea team... has been useless since joining Chelsea!
Anon: De Zerbi got the best out of Colwill in a back three, but Poch insists on playing him LB? Why?! Chilwell can’t come back quick enough!
Middlesbrough 1-0 Chelsea
And we're back. No changes at the break.

Amazing that Chelsea have covered the cost of a stadium and a training complex for Brighton with their signings, and none of them have actually improved Chelsea in any way.

You have got to play to your strengths and it has worked out better for Isaiah Jones in getting him higher up the pitch.
Jones' eyes are lighting up and he is saying 'give me the ball', Levi Colwill is one tackle from going off - Boro need to keep putting him under pressure.
