Can't spurn those sort of chances at this level.

Been one of our big problems this season.
We've GOT to take more of these chances.

They don't care. Their assets and wages are solely bolstered by the dirty Russian money.

Dwight gives up on a play and should be sat on the bench for it, imo.

Chelsea's back four seem like they want to do anything BUT defend today... I would keep putting balls into the box...

McNeil complete lack of composure and poor decision making too. We will probably regret missing these chances.

Dwight could have possibly had 3.
But really should have had one.

Decent half though.

Jeff Stelling tells the nation the last time we beat Chelsea ont’Turf was 1974 with a goal by Frank Casper, his favourite player at that time. Mine as well and what a goal it was.

Thought mcneil has done well so far, some class touches and looks lively. End product not great, but working hard. Impressed with Collins too.

It’s a complete lack of confidence in front of goal from McNeil. The season he burst onto the scene he scores or assists at least one that half.

Frustrating,we've done well. Chelsea seem nervy at the back but we've missed the best chance of the game through an out of sorts McNeil (he really does need to wake up second half)

Not a bad first half, all things considered. Getting sick of McNeil walking around with his head down sulking. Not sprinting back and just jogging/walking around. Gives up on loose balls all the time. He’s so frustrating!!!

The 6 at the back approach working well with Lennon and McNeil doubling up as full backs to stop them getting forward

Worth pointing out that Lennon is having another good game and continues to create chances.

Lennon playing well again, keep going lads, more chances will come.

Apparently the fastest Burnley player in the squad even at his age. (According to the Astro stream)

Lennon has been a breathe of fresh air. Didn’t particularly see the point in re signing him but I’m glad we did especially since our other winger is out yet again. He isn’t just making up the numbers which is important he’s making an impact on the games. Fair play to him. 35 next month, you wouldn’t think so

Cornet needs to come on for McNeil. I know he ain’t got a defensive bone in his body but my god he got twisted inside and out by James then he nearly fell over!

It looks like McNeil didn't have that much needed "wake up" cold shower at halftime because his attempt at defending that goal was abysmal
