We asked for your thoughts after Tuesday's Premier League game between Chelsea and Leeds United.

Here are some of your comments:

Chelsea fans

Nick: Two more points surrendered at home. Two more points dropped from a winning position. Two more points gift-wrapped to the opposition by Chelsea forgetting matches last 90 minutes. Essentially, 60 minutes of controlled, totally dominant, attractive play undone by switching off for six minutes. Intensely frustrating.

Kazuki: Again, our naivety cost us the game. This concept of a young and exciting team is fine as a presentation to the world, but when it’s really young from the management to the coach to the players we don’t have to stick to the concept as much and could bring in some steel with experience in defence. Please, please, I beg you Chelsea.

James: Leeds is always a tough test but from such a commanding position the game should be seen out. Sloppy in defence second half and it is dropping points like this that could prove costly at the end of the season.

Simon: Poor management, not reacting to the changing game. Desperately need a new keeper as well. Lots of work to be done.

Leeds fans

AC: Apart from the gifted pen Bijol was a welcome return. Credit Daniel Farke as he subbed Okafor for Bornauw, tweaked the setup and we got the ball forward quicker. Dodged a bullet at the end with Palmers miss. Very happy to take a point from the game.

Darren: It’s the first time this season I can honestly remember Leeds getting a slice of luck and maybe a result they didn’t merit. However, a few more of these will be required to even out the times when the exact opposite is true.

Ian: I’m not quite sure how Leeds pulled that off. When Bijol had a rush of blood to his arms I thought we were dead and buried. A never say die attitude rattled the Chelsea defence and a vital point with another two top-five sides to come.

Jason: Bogle was phenomenal in the Championship last season and he has excelled in the Premier League. Why don’t I hear him being touted for an England call up?

JPL: How on earth did we pull that off? Still, we got a very valuable point and we’ll take it. No one said this first season back was going to be easy. Every point counts. Can’t help feeling a tad sorry for Palmer – that will take some forgetting.
