Didn't have Gordon pegged as a diver like that... you think you know someone.
Still made the most of a rare Reece James brain fart. Chelsea do not look set up right mentally today, they're beating themselves with silly mistakes.

he was atrocious at penalties.
For one thing who judges a GK on pens anyway? For another, Cech is literally famous for being great at penalties.
Go re-watch that CL final I talked about. He saves one in normal time and a couple in the shootout, as well as diving the right way every. single. time.
Think Cech is severely underrated and left out when it comes to all time goalkeeper lists(in football lol).
I think pre-helmet Cech at Chelsea was arguably the best stretch of goal-keeping the world has ever seen. Even post helmet he pulled out games like the CL final against Bayern at Bayern where he was an absolute colossus between the sticks.
Is is just because Chelsea of that period is so hated that he doesn't seem to get his due?
Is the Chelsea meme period ending? They've gone toe to toe with the big boys in the last few weeks and looked the part, they might be scary in the coming years
Is this the game of the season so far?
Gotta hand it to these back-up fullbacks of Chelsea, both stepped up to fill big shoes immaculately so far
Mudryk just hates Arsenal
This is a really uncharacteristic performance from him today, but the whole of Chelsea just didn't turn up, especially their few experienced players. Silva had a mare and Sterling was poor outside of his free-kick.
Inconsistent performances like that may be the price Chelsea pay the next few years for going all in on youth. James is still under 25 so is an unusually young choice for captain as well.
I suspect he is really going to blossom into his role over the next few years if he can just stay healthy. I'm hopeful for him with the very carefully managed return he's had so far this time and with Gusto to share the load more.
