Thought our fitness levels were the best I've seen for ages. Pogba still running in the last 15 minutes.

Rashford actually mentioned the whole team working on fitness and playing a with more fluid front line in his post match interview. Said both will only get better as the season goes on.

Let's see how it goes.
Woulda, coulda, shoulda. %@#$&!s.

We looked really nervous early on.

That has been the case a few times at home under Ole, especially the two champions league games.

Which is strange considering how positive he is.

We were much better once we settled down though

Lot of excuses being made for Chelsea because they had some young players on the pitch, but our starting 11 had a younger average age
I feel like they've lost others too, wasn't there a Welsh lad left in the summer?

Watching the game back and we weren’t that bad first half and were one or two passes away from getting in behind them.

Said as much at the time. Cheslea were dominating the ball, but they were full of errors and I felt we would be clean through if we got some composure in our play.

Which we did. And we were.

Chelsea were well beaten in the end.
