The small positive to going 1-0 down is Hazard actually has to not stand still with the ball.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
And that's why Filipe Luis hasn't been playing. Azpilicueta really helps to protect Terry.
Has to be lose. If somehow Chelsea and City lose then we've gain on them.Not sure if I want Chelsea to lose or win?
Classy .
If he doesn't stand still, the explosive sprint doesn't leave them for dead as often.
Expect Costa to be sent off. He's not getting much joy out of the Southampton defence. There'll be an elbow or a kick-out somewhere brewing.
These guys needs to put a lid on Hazard.
I reckon there will be some odd results today..purely because of the two games in 48 hours thingy...
I know but there's far too Many times he kills a break or a good attack by just standing and waiting. It lets the opponents get back in shape.
Yeah true.
well played, guardian:
There’s only one Ronald Koeman!” sing the Saints fans. Koeman waves in appreciation, despite the fact that the fans are overlooking his son Ronald Jr.

What the feck was that from Ivanovic? He screamed like he'd been stabbed.
Played for the foul there.

How can the ref give a free kick when the linesman is like 5 yards away and doesn't flag
Quite an energy sapping game, this.
This is the first time I've seen Mane play well. He's looed wank the other times I've seen Southampton.
Has Neville ever thought a player hasn't gone down easily?
That's Ivanović for you. Biggest wanker in the league, he can dish out elbows/kicks/punches but goes down at the first sign of contact.
Wasn't he pulled up the last game for diving?
He's probably one of the two best fullbacks in the league, but he needs to cut that shit out.
He dived but wasn't punished for it.
He was excellent against Crystal Palace also but yeah, he's been very disappointing outside of this new run of form.
"Not a natural runner."
The polite way of saying he's slow as feck.

But you forget that Southampton would get one point behind us if they win.
Ah I see.
Interesting game, this. Mourinho getting out-Mourinhoed. Chelsea with 0 goal attempts. Soton look dangerous every time they go forward.
Looks like Mikel playing deeper then Matic,that might cost them.
Still think they'll fade away in the New Year.
Brilliant goal. Chelsea have been poor.
GET IN!!! EDEN!!
Garbage defending. Far too easy for him to cut back onto his right foot
Fergie, Fergie, Fergie... why did you not pay the agent fee as the extra to get this guy Hazard?
Class goal. Unsurprisingly from Hazard.
Damn.
Good goal for Hazard.
Another Fabregas assist
Hazard decided he wanted a goal that time.
He scores that exact type of goal annoyingly often. Defenders seem to try and show him outside, but fail so, so often.
Good. One more goal for Chelsea now and Saints still has a lot to do to get near us.
He's too good - done pretty much nothing all game and then he equalises, great play from Gassy as well.
so that's chelsea with the victory then.
Reminds me of 2006/07 Ronaldo.
Keep it in your pants Gary, Chelsea aren't champions yet.
