Chelsea fans on Twitter have been full of praise for the performance of Brazilian teenager Kenedy in the 1-0 win over Norwich.
The 19-year-old was surprisingly selected ahead of Cesar Azpilicueta at left-back, with boss Jose Mourinho explaining it was to effectively play him as winger if Norwich packed their defence.
And after a rare Chelsea clean sheet this season, Blues supporters were quick to praise the decision – and Kenedy’s mature display.
However, some fans were less convinced by the performance, for much of the game, of Diego Costa. Although the Spain striker scored the winning goal, supporters had been heard jeering him for passing up scoring opportunities and going to ground.

Kenedy did well but truth is he was never under any pressure (unlike against liverpool, palace, et al),but that is definitely the choice of the game from Mr Mouriho in playing him at left back. I hope he plays again against Tel aviv, Ramirez should come back into the side and Cahill to come back in with Zouma moving to the Right hand side.
The team needs to defend from up the field to limit the pressure of the opponents and to be afraid all the time.
