A few but we need serious work.Ok I didn't watch. Couldn't watch. Thought we were going to get blown out so a 2-2 result is a surprise.
Any positives?
Just glad we didn't get rinsed

Kante carries that Chelsea side like he did Leicester.
More than Kane carries Spurs or Van Dijk carries Liverpool imo.
I think they are City’s main rival and potential champions.This Chelsea side are 1 big Kante injury away from scrapping about for top 6.
Kante makes them sooooo much better. Without him they lose that air of total dominance imo.What drugs are you on?
While Kante is an important player for them they had world-class players not even on their bench tonight.
Mourinho is just about himself. Hes living on reputation now. Soundbites are wearing thin. Most boring football we played under him.Wouldn't say that 1st half where we had 39% possession and 1 shot all half.
Got better but honestly hard to read into this game for 2 reasons
- We only got better when CHELSEA changed their whole team
- That XI we played isn't the one we want to be playing when we starting playing in the PL
Guys, do you think that Nuno will rotate the GK? Imagine- Hugo for Premier League, Gollini for Conference League and one for each of both cups.
I´m saying this because Gollini deserve more than Carabao Cup. He was the number one from Atalanta

It's unfair the rest of the league have to play against him tbh. Unreal player.
Made Dele look like a little kid out there.
I was surprised he wasn't brought on when we needed a goal?Sissoko didn’t play a single minute, long may it continue.
I think so yeah. That’s what Poch used to do.

They would be nowhere near as good.I'm not saying he doesn't. He's the best in his position. But I'm sure Chelsea would go along just fine with a midfield of Jorginho, Kovacic and Mount.
They would be nowhere near as good.
Still top 4 I'd imagine though.
How was still haven't address this issue is beyond me. Like... how the hell have we not splashed money on our back line? Christ.For those that didn't watch. My take for what its worth.
New keeper looked decent, made a few solid saves, nothing spectacular but solid start.
Skipp grew into the game, maybe coincided with the likes of Kante coming off, but there is a real player in there.
Moura was sharp
Bergwijn was a mixed bag, some nice moments but also still runs into blind alleys and loses the ball too easily.
Son's touch was a bit off
Dele a few nice things but still not enough to convince me.
The back 4 was largely shit and is a big problem going into the season.
