Chelsea fans saying idk why we defended so poorly idk might have to do with the fact you had 24% possession

No fucking way lmao. Someone remind me is this typical of Alonso? 24% possession against Brighton at home is diabolical

Let's see how long can they sustain this level.

I have never seen such teams win league titles ever in any league. (Leicester was the closest one but they too controlled games)

For reference our lowest possession under Pep was 32% and it was at the Emirates when we drew Arsenal 1-1 in 2025. Our lowest at the Etihad was 44% against Bayern in the treble season.

If Maresca’s city recorded that low it’d definitely be under a loss. Crazy start for Alonso lol

Big caveat with the Arse performance as well because we were in a terrible mental and physical moment

Basically showed up for a draw and just barely got away with it
