Extremely harsh.

Ref was having an awful match. Ticky tack fouls going against Chelsea but then that is a very harsh call.

I think the argument in favor of a penalty there would be that Tomori was clearly beaten by Mount and that Mount was clear on without the pullbacks. It was 3 pullbacks.

Would Mount diving have made it more obvious? Like why punish the attacker for trying to stay up

Fwiw I still think it’s harsh

Chalobah switches off, Giroud has to score that

Official has lost control of the match. Milan is trying to bait everything now, storming the ref.

Potter would be smart to sub anyone with a yellow.

the way this ref is going in this Chelsea/Milan game Chelsea may need to sub some of these guys on a yellow already, he seems ready to even it up.

Reece James first 30 today is best in the world at his position type stuff. Wow.

He’s on one today.

Mount also continuing his good form

Auba with an intelligent run and strong finish.

Anyone know how to pronounce the Dortmund LB name? His name is Rothe but the announcer sounds like he's saying Water and my closed captioning is confirming that.

We are currently top of the group, who would've thought that after our start to the group stage.

saved by Liverpool trained Kamil Grabara. LFC have a lot of club trained keepers out in the world right now. Kind of weird?

Everyone. That group sucks

I don't think many on here expected Chelsea to beat Milan twice after those opening 2 matches. Granted, the manager shift has done a lot for the improvement.
I think even the most self-deprecated on her at the minimum expected Chelsea to cruise out of that group. Also Milan is not as good as they were last year.

I feel bad for Tomori, considering he said this yesterday lol :


Even if we want to debate whether one or all of the three pullbacks was soft, have to give credit to Mount for getting in behind there, having the pace to stay in behind, and staying on balance to get a shot off.

Prime Mase is back.

Yeah, Mount had a very strong half.

How long until Auba does his knees and ends his career at 34 with these stupid flip celebrations
