Benno has given some praise for Jules Ahoka's performance this afternoon: "You look at Ahoka and obviously he’s playing in that Xhaka role but he gives you a lot more mobility, doesn’t he?" #SAFC | #SUNCHE

Benno spots warning signs with Brobbey: "Brobbey’s put a shift in and that’s a worry because I imagine after an hour, he’ll have to come off. That is a worry that Sunderland have. The one thing you don’t him to do is to pick up a strain or an injury." #SAFC | #SUNCHE

Thomas Meunier goes in to the book for a foul on Caicedo who's reaction prompts a great exchange from Benno and Barnesy... "He'd get an Oscar for that won't he" "Maybe something, it wasn't that good" "A Bafta? "More like a biscuit" #SAFC | #SUNCHE

Benno's first half assessment: "Controlled. Professional. Back to the old Sunderland. They’ve kept their shape. I expect Chelsea to make substitutions at half time because the tempo suits us. They’re trying to break us down, I won’t be surprised if Estevao comes on to inject some life into Chelsea but overall it’s been an excellent first half performance for Sunderland." #SAFC | #SUNCHE

Winning at the break! ❤️🤍 Plenty of commitment at the back, Brian Brobbey doing Brian Brobbey things and some eyebrows raised around referee decisions. How do you assess that first half? 🤔 #SAFC | #SUNCHE
