    Not sure last night was a fair and balanced match to judge their support on.

    Special circumstances so their fans would have been 100% up for it. Chelsea really **** on them last season and ended their best season in 20-30 years so normal derby related levels of dislike/hatred were heightened.

    Goal just before the break was perfect.

    All or most games are ifs and buts of course but had Hazard taken that very early chance (which he should have) all very different.

    Every match a cup final, as they say. glwtpimo.

    I believe so. You've got to imagine it may very well compromise their home form.
