    Random question - do we struggle playing in heavy rain conditions like on Saturday? Can’t remember playing a good game in those types of conditions for a long time at least?

      PSV, it was absolutely pissing it down. However, the Carpet has great drainage.

        I thought it was just a light rain that day. Guess it’s hard to tell at the Emirates though due to the drainage system

          It was ridiculously heavy rain, my jeans were still wet midday the following day.

          I was relatively close to Fulham last night, I don’t think the rain was comparable tbh.

          Having said that, we got rained on after the PSV match ended on our way home, maybe it was lighter rain during the game? As for the Chelsea game, it was pretty dry after half time.

            Oh god don’t remind me. Don’t think I’ve ever been that drenched in my life.

            I think it was raining during too, but picked up after the game ended.

      I think we both struggled on the day. Both teams looked fucking dogshit for 45 minutes when it was pissing it down. If either team had a big outlet up top maybe we would’ve adapted but all Chelsea did was pass it around, knock it back to Sanchez who just hoofed it to no-one as it was pointless to try and work through the middle.
