Absolute Chelsea

IT'S MATCHDAY! 💙

Calum McFarlane on #Chelsea's six straight league defeats: "It's a ruthless game, it's a really high level. We cannot start games in the Premier League like this. We're training tomorrow, we'll review the game and try to find a reason why and try to make sure the performance level is higher against Liverpool in five days' time." [via @BobbyVincentFL]

Calum McFarlane on #Chelsea's performance: "The first 15 minutes were unacceptable. The manner of the two goals conceded really set us back and gave us a mountain to climb." [via @BobbyVincentFL]

Calum McFarlane on looking ahead to #Chelsea's next game against Liverpool: "I've said it before but we just need to improve on this performance and be ready for another game in five days." [via @BBCMOTD]

Calum McFarlane on Joao Pedro's goal: "Great finish, unlucky with the offside goal too so good for him to get the goal but it doesn't really mean anything right now." [via @BBCMOTD]

Calum McFarlane on Robert Sanchez: "Robert positive as well. I hope the Forest players are in stable and good condition too." [via @BBCMOTD]

Calum McFarlane on Jesse Derry: "Gutted for Jesse, I thought he did well in the game. He gave us a threat - a massive moment for him that has ended sadly." [via @BBCMOTD]

Calum McFarlane on #Chelsea's loss to Nottingham Forest: "Massively disappointing - we know we are a lot better than what we showed today. I don't think we ever got to our level so very disappointing." [via @BBCMOTD]

Calum McFarlane on Jesse Derry: "The update is that he is in a good condition. I need to fully speak to the medical team but it's positive signs." [via @SkySportsPL]

Joao Pedro: "The motivation is always there - today if we won we would be able to be in the Champions League. Now will be more difficult but we need to still fight for every game and for every point and see what we can achieve." [via @SkySportsPL]

Joao Pedro on whether players realise the need to step up: "Yes of course. We support the leaders [in the team]. We always talk to each other to find a way to win games. Last week we won against Leeds, this week it didn't happen, we need to find a way to win." [via @SkySportsPL]

Joao Pedro: "Everyone needs to look at themselves - me included. We need to find a way to do better. I feel sorry for the fans - tomorrow we see what has gone wrong. It's difficult because I don't think it's about the coach. It's about the players and it's on us to step up, me included. It's difficult to say something." [via @SkySportsPL]

Joao Pedro on the loss to Nottingham Forest: "From the beginning, we conceded too early and against Forest it's difficult to change the game. I think we should do better. We need to find a way to try to not do these mistakes every game. We need to start to win games. This is the Premier League and if you concede too early after that it's very difficult to come back." [via @SkySportsPL]

Jesse Derry has been taken to hospital as a precaution following his first-half substitution during today’s #PL game against Nottingham Forest. Jesse is conscious, talking and undergoing precautionary checks. We wish him a speedy recovery and thank the medical staff for their swift response.
