Summary
Chelsea just don't want nice things, do they?
Matt Davies-Adams is joined by Luke Bosher and Dom Fifield with a sense of serious déjà vu as the Blues conspired to draw 2-2 with yet another relegation threatened side on a sorry Sunday in Sheffield.
We reflect on the result with the help of a full-time match report from Liam Twomey - and ponder whether it's an irretrievable situation for Mauricio Pochettino irrespective of potential FA Cup success or where they finish in the table this season.
We'll be back with you on Thursday to look ahead to Monday night's visit of Everton - what could possibly go wrong!
HOST: Matt Davies-Adams
WITH: Dom Fifield, Luke Bosher
PRODUCER: Lucy Oliva
