Community player ratings from Chelsea's dramatic win at Craven Cottage
1. TYRIQUE GEORGE (7.7, sub)
What's more important, the game-tying goal in the 83rd minute or the game-winning goal in the 93rd? Tough call. It came down to just three-hundredths in overall average, but young Tyrique George just edges out Pedro Neto for the top spot. George brought us level and Pedro brought us home. It's a team game.
This was the Academy youngster's 20th appearance of the season, and his second goal — but first in the Premier League. Things you love to see! The fact that it's George coming off the bench for Jackson instead of Christopher Nkunku (who wasn't even on it) is a) wonderful and b) shocking (with respect to how the season's gone for the latter).
2. PEDRO NETO (7.7)
Maybe the best thing about Neto scoring the winning goal is that you know he's about to go berserk with the celebrations.
"It was fantastic goal from Pedro, from Tyrique. But I think all the team today was very good - Trevoh was good, Levi was good ... the ones in the middle, Moi, Enzo — Cole was better, so happy for all of them."
3. MOISÉS CAICEDO (6.9)
Yes, Caicedo was good as usual, as Maresca mentioned, despite being hung out to dry all by his lonesome in midfield on a fair few occasions.
