Full time was 2-5.
I don’t think anybody saw this coming. The race for 4th place is really hotting up now, really hope Liverpool can take advantage & win tonight.
It is a shock result but it has to come. The honeymoon of Tuchel and Chelsea has to end somehow and it is how it ends.
I'm sorry for Chelsea fans but this defeat will make the competition to Champions League with the 4th position in Premier Leauge become hotter. Liverpool already took 3 points and let's wait for the responses from West Ham and Tottenham.
I will need to watch the highlights. Bad for Chelsea but I liked it.
Yes, it is good for the Premier League with more exciting matches till the end.
This is probably the worst day for Silva. He was still injured on the last game and this is his first game after he is fit but all goes down in flame with a red card on the first half. Despite playing with only 10 players, gotta admit that West Brom were good against Chelsea. Chelsea totally got destroyed by West Brom in this match.
Thiago Silva is very important for Chelsea. The appearance of Silva in this season help Chelsea get big improvements in their defense system. It is a bad and unlucky match for Silva. However, the all mistakes are not from him but from Jorginho. He made two serious mistakes and it is a very terrible match from Jorginho.
Thiago Silva was their main man and with him getting red card spoiled all the plans. Silva is a good central defender and with him being sent off Tuchel had to substitute Ziyech for Christensen and that took one man from their attack and add a decent defender.
And with that Chelsea under Tuchel registers their first lost since Tuchel's appointment. Not bad from Tuchel tho. Yeah not an expected result but Silva's red card was the game changer IMO.
The substitution with Christensen can not help Chelsea with mistakes from Jorginho and the team lost confidence after the sent-out of Silva. I think the second yellow card for Silva is too strict.
From this defeat, Tuchel will have huge works to do if want to secure the 4th position on the table.
