Yeah, take the two best players out of any team, and low and behold, they will not be as good as they are with them!
Take Salad and Mane out of Liverpool, De Breune and Aguero out of City. They're not the same teams without those.
It's a ridiculous way of looking at it, and that argument is ONLY used against us.

Hasselbaink totally debunked this theory after Keane threw it out there, and he did so really well.

Wonder what Bale is thinking of all this bench time. He came from Real Madrid bench, now sat on our’s.

Was a little disappointed Mourinho didn’t get Bale on. It was clear we needed a bit of composure and a weighty finish to win the game. Thought Mourinho was a little timid not brining Bale on.

Seemed as if Mourinho was settling for the draw when he brought on Davies for Bergwijn
 
Would have taken a point before the game, reasonably happy with the result now and performance was alright.

Bit disappointing second half, they looked more threatening than in the first and we really struggled to launch decent counter attacks.

Point away to Chelsea, can't complain.

I don’t think they’re saying “we’re nothing” without them, but they both didn’t turn up today and we looked poor as a result in the second half. Of course any team with their two best players out of the side is not as good. They’ve scored the majority of our goals this season. We could quite conceivably win the league with those two carrying us goals wise. People would say it against Liverpool if they were dropping points but they’re level on points with us after being decimated with injuries. Hopefully they will get an injury to Salah, Jota or Mane. Emirates Marketing Project have also won stuff over the years with injuries to the likes of De Bruyne and Aguero too.
 
Calmed down a bit now as that was pretty tense.
Was very happy with the draw.
Looked good in some of the initial transitions but then some poor decision making up top.
Was very uncomfortable when we passed it across the back, especially when they pressed Rodon and Dier. Not enough experience across central defence to be doing that. I counted around 6 players slipping over.. some in dangerous positions.
Great structure and shape, Jose knows how to set up a team. Sissoko doing air shots and us getting a draw... I’ll take that. Let’s smash the vermin next week.
 
Watched that on delay due to kid commitments
Where’ was the masterful Chelsea attack?
Ziyech the next hazard :(
Rodon was brilliant

I think Pulisic is the next Hazard. They have a handful of exciting attacking players, yet looked blunt today and devoid of ideas.
