Episode Notes

It wasn’t pretty. At times it was barely watchable. But Chelsea won a football match, and right now that’s all that matters.

We break down a scrappy 2–0 win over Brentford that could very easily have gone the other way. Big saves from Sanchez, a moment of quality from João Pedro, a cold Palmer penalty, and a whole lot of hanging on in between.

There’s chat on Tosin, Palmer’s fitness, going long from the back, and whether this is the start of learning how to win ugly again. Plus thoughts on January transfers, centre-back links, and what Chelsea actually need right now.

Voicenotes on all that and more.
