70. If Pochettino's vision is to create a side with no penetration or creative threat in the final third, things are going according to plan.

You feel that Roy Hodgson's side need to get a goal to capitalise on how poor the hosts have been in this second half.

Mudryk is down on the far side as he went down under the challenge of Clyne.

Nkunku and Mudryk come off for Broja and Madueke.

68. Lavia picks the ball up in his own half and tries to play a direct pass forward.

Only he knows who he was trying to pass that to but it runs out of play for a Crystal Palace throw in.

Ayew twists and turns in the Chelsea box and gets a cross in but it is hacked clear by Lavia.

66. Olise picks the ball up on the edge of his own box and skips past Lavia with ease.

He fouls the Palace man to stop him in his tracks.

Chelsea should have asked for some creativity for Christmas.

64. With Caicedo and Lavia in the middle of the park, Chelsea have £170m worth of talent.

They do not look any more solid for it though.

Chelsea start to knock the ball around but just cannot find that killer pass and Palace clear with ease all too often.
