You already alluded to some of those misses.
One falls to Richarlison, 48th minute of the game.
Alan Smith in commentary called it the miss of the season.
How would you describe it?
Well, there was a feature at the start of the second half, the two wing-backs to Chelsea, and the back three looked all over the place, making poor decisions.
He ends up in the middle of the goal with no-one on him, and Alonso recovering, he just takes his eye off it in the last moments.
Again, the wing-backs are high as they're messing about in the midfield here.
And it comes out.
Bacchiaro, who's meant to be the secure midfield player, makes a mistake.
They're right through the middle.
Gary Cahill runs across.
And be fair to the young boy, Jamie.
I mean, he's had that miss.
And Richarlison is cool enough... 54 seconds between that miss and this.
And he's cool enough to actually put that to one side, that miss, and make that pass.
Brilliant.
He's a player, isn't he, Al?
Yeah, Al.
I mean, he is a unique talent.
He's raw.
