#3 Flop: Willian

He saw plenty of the ball in the first-half, but failed to take full advantage of the opportunities presented to him. His attempted crosses were regularly inaccurate and disappointing, which set the tone as Chelsea failed to make their first-half dominance pay with goals.

At 30-years-old, he's one of the club's more experienced players - yet so inconsistent that you can understand fans' impatience at his displays.

Ever since the 2015/16 campaign, the Brazilian winger hasn't been the same. Faded as the match continued, which saw him unsurprisingly replaced on the hour mark - for Ruben Loftus-Cheek, who probably should've started.

One key pass, two completed dribbles, 90.7% pass accuracy, dispossessed on three occasions, two accurate crosses - 11 attempted. Not good enough from someone of his quality.
