Not overly surprising given City's strength in possession although they've struggled with Liverpool who do the same. 

Napoli are so fun to watch. After the first 30 mins they played better and you should've been rewarded with a draw.

Also Sane imo is one of the best wide players in the world. Plays that position near perfectly in the traditional sense as opposed to the modern day wingers.

Roma is playing much better than Chelsea right now, but their central defense is really poor.

2 goals later, Chelsea is getting schooled right now. What a game by Roma. Kolarov, Dzeko and Perrotti are playing really really well right now

Perrotti's finishing has been awful. He should have scored several times.

So lucky to get a draw. 

Only positive is that we were clinical. Otherwise what a poor performance. The amount of time Roma had on the ball was a joke. Didn't press as a team, defended were too cautious on the ball. Roma crowded the middle and their full backs gave them width. Tactically Conte I think got it wrong. We can't keep getting overwhelmed in midfield.

definitely true. But his ability to eliminate players set him apart today I felt.

Kudos to Roma for coming back from 2-0. On Chelsea side, David Luiz played well as CDM, I always liked him when he played there for PSG. Hasard was the best player on the pitch. Pedro had a fine entrance. The rest of the team (save from Alonso), wasn't good
