Reece James came out and spoke after last night’s heavy defeat, trying to give fans hope that his team could come back into this game in the second leg.

“We need to put this one behind us and look forward now. We need to react, the game didn’t go our way here but it’s only half-time. There’s lots to learn from this game, we know we’ve made it super difficult for ourselves for the second leg but the game is not done, far from it,” the captain said in quotes on the club’s official website.

“This is a Champions League tie, the best competition at club level, over two legs and we need to reset and go again. I’ll say it again to everyone but especially the Chelsea fans. The game is not finished, it’s only half-time. And we will give our all in the second leg.”

Chelsea still have hope claims Reece James

The problem isn’t just that Chelsea are three goals down against a really good team – and that is enough of a problem on its own.

The issue is that the reason they’re three goals down is because they showed more ill-discipline and immaturity. That’s the deeper cause, and the real reason this team isn’t likely to win a major trophy this year.

Liam Rosenior’s decision to use Filip Jorgensen ended up being a disaster, let’s face it. The Standard wrote about it here.
