I'm not sure how to react. We've spent 27.5 million on two players and there's still over a month of the transfer window open. If we take on a decent defender or two we might have a squad with a bit of depth. I hoping for more early signings so Mclaren has time to get to know his new players and let them start working together.
That second goal was tremendous! Obertans cross was superb. Excited to see Wjinaldum, looks a real good hardworking player, sure he will have it knocked out of him by the end of the season!
Defence shaky as usual, still think we need another defender in even just for greater competition for places. Quite a few options in midfield and up front now at least

It's a long season but in the next six games we have Man Utd, Arsenal, Man City, and Chelsea. A tricky start to the season and one that could very well, if we don't get anything from Watford and West Ham, see us rooted to the bottom for quite a while. Pressures on after just two games!

Indeed very happy with a defensive performance like that.
We're never going to be like Barca, so there are games where a point is a great result.
Even though we're at the foot of the table, things are looking up after that.
I'd be be happy if we got in a couple more, and got rid of a couple as well for that matter, but we should be OK with what we've got if that's the case.

Oh well I was almost right... still half way through sept and we are on 2 points... getting beat this eve by West Ham... may be pick up points against Watford but Chelsea can't wait to get their first win against up in a few games...

Here we go... already beaten 2-0....... the next 2/3 matches will be the same... so we will be on 1 point at the end of Sept... lets hope there are worse teams so we are not rooted to the bottom of the table!
