Chelsea’s 2-1 victory over Brentford sparked mixed reactions from fans, who praised the team’s performance but pointed out areas for improvement.

Dan: “Fantastic performance for 89 minutes. Again, concentration cost Chelsea a clean sheet. What I don’t get, though, is the red card. Cucurella just needs to walk away. He’s got what he has come for, and then he gets a red card for getting into a silly pushing game with a Brentford player. That could be costly to Chelsea’s title ambitions. By the way, we aren’t in the title race. We’re just making things interesting.”

David: “It’s a young team; they simply need a calm head out there and clearer instructions from Maresca to kill off games, rather than sending seven forward to score with five minutes left. Still, it was a good performance against a very tricky team.”

Mathew: “Really happy to get the win at home. We played really well, and I’m happy to see Cucurella and Jackson score, but it’s a shame we couldn’t keep a clean sheet. It’s also good to end our poor streak against Brentford. I was excited to see Tyrique George, Josh Acheampong, and Samuel Rak-Sakyi in the matchday squad—hopefully, they start on Thursday.”

Chelsea fans are encouraged by the team’s growing cohesion but are eager for more discipline and consistency as the season progresses.
