To put it bluntly, Chelsea have been scoring freely against quality opposition. And fans knew that we'd travel to West London without skipper Harry Maguire, who was suspended.
But the performance we delivered at Stamford Bridge was full of character, spirit and resolve, all of which were epitomised by centre-backs Victor Lindelof and Eric Bailly.
Both deserve special praise.
Bailly was making just his fourth appearance of the season, and competing in only his second Premier League game of 2021/22.
In his previous match, he scored an own goal in the agonising defeat to Manchester City.
