“Horrendous performance” – Some Chelsea fans left fuming by first half disaster against West Brom

Chelsea are 3-0 down and in total disarray at the Hawthorns.

The Blues made two absolutely awful mistakes in the first period, and then conceded to a set piece, to leave themselves in a huge hole.

We’re sure there will be half time changes, and probably the hairdryer coming out, but even that won’t be enough to keep some fans happy.

The voices on social media criticising the team – and Frank Lampard in particular – have got a lot louder, and some seem to have had enough already. One called it a “horrendous performance”, and that’s about as mildly as one could put it.

It’s a long way back from here, and even doing the incredible and dragging it back to 3-3 still would leave most fans feeling unhappy.

We would warn them that the season is long, and there are still a lot of players to come back, but there’s no excuses for this, especially some of the individual errors that have let the team down.

That goes for the strikers as much as the defenders, but there’s nobody out there playing well at the moment.
