I didn’t tweet much about yesterday’s game because I spent the weekend in Mariadorf, Kai Havertz’s home town, and watched Chelsea-Liverpool at the club he joined aged four.
Perfect timing for that HT sub...

There’ll be more on that trip on @TheAthleticUK soon enough, but for now, some thoughts on the game... #CFC
Christensen’s red was a collective fail. If you’re going to push up to the halfway line against Mane and Salah, Henderson can’t be given so much time and space in a central area to pick out that pass. Not for the first time, Chelsea’s midfield disappeared #CFC
Havertz as a false nine was interesting and he had one or two nice link-ups, but Chelsea’s midfield trio didn’t do a good enough job progressing the ball beyond Liverpool’s press #CFC
Werner’s movement is constantly smart and threatening. He’s doing so many things right that his first goal surely won’t be long #CFC
Liverpool are a much better, more mature team. No surprise there. But the structural issues in Chelsea’s defending (particularly in transition) won’t be completely solved by personnel changes. Fixing it is Lampard’s most pressing challenge #CFC
