Even Tarkowski is struggling to mark players properly.

Its amazing how quick competing coaches pick up on things. For the second Chelsea goal Mount hit the corner into exactly the same area that Spurs did. On that occasion Kane got their first and glanced it to Son.Today Zuma scored an easy goal with some power in the absence of any challenge We probably need to put Wood or Barnes in that pocket of space to attack the ball. Hopefully the coaches will work on this. Brighton are quite a threat with a number of tall defenders who come up for corners and free kicks

I noticed today we faffed about with several short corners that came to nothing, rather than hitting the back post and crowding out the keeper

That short corner thing is extremely irritating. It always looked more dangerous to us than Chelsea.
