Pedro, Ivanovic, Courtois and Remy didn't travel due to injury.

Re: Champions League - Dynamo Kiev vs Chelsea sans Ivanovic
Satisfied with that performance. A win would have been nice (and no less that we'd have deserved), but a point sets us up nicely going into the second half of the group, with both of the tougher teams to play at home. It's a certain indictment on our season that that was far and away our best and most cohesive, competent performance thus far this term, and even more a one on the critical situation we were in mathematically that the fear of losing that game increasingly caused us to retract and retreat in an otherwise dominant performance as the end drew nearer and nearer, but again, win our 3 remaining games (which is eminently possible should we start playing to our ability) and we've a very good chance of finishing top. I'm a long way from fully singing our praises and quite a ways off even coming close to saying we're 'back' (one point on a chart does not a trend make), but it's certainly a step in the right direction. #TryingToBeOptimistic #ForOnce

Steps in the right direction is exactly what we need.
How many legit penalty claims have we had denied recently? It's been a trend for almost a year now, ffs.

I heard Matic was boss.
And Zouma did well at RB, so I imagine he'll be starting there while Bran is out.

I only watched the last 20 minutes and it looked like Kiev were on top

That was the only time they did anything, apparently.

I wouldn't say anything, but it's true, as I mentioned in my brief recap, that we got progressively more conservative and cautious as the game wore on, likely for the reasons I cited.
