We asked for your thoughts after Sunday's pre-season friendly between Chelsea and Inter Milan.

Here are some of your comments:

Jason: While you can appreciate why the new manager wants to improve things, you cannot watch us without feeling we have not moved forward in a whole year. This policy of buying youngsters to secure a bright future is admirable but how long do we have to watch these substandard performances as we have during this whole preseason schedule?

Matthew: Good performance. That was a good showing from us. We still create multiple chances, but can’t score them. Enzo, Ugochukwu, Nkunku, Gusto, Palmer, Veiga and Marc Guiu were some of the standouts for me, but, the whole side had a good performance overall. I just hope we are ready for next Sunday. It was also good to see Neto being paraded around.

Andy: I thought we played reasonably well. Typical going a goal down but good to keep fighting and get the equaliser. Palmer looked good on his return and it would have been nice to have four or five Premier League games under our belt before facing City next week, but I would be satisfied if we can avoid defeat.

Robert: I am afraid for the forthcoming season, as we have not covered the deficiencies exploited by many teams last season. We look good on the ball and have the majority of possession but cannot convert our chances. We have just splashed out north of £50m on Neto, but do we need another winger?

Nick: A good performance against a strong Inter side, whose keeper was MOTM. Defenders didn't make any significant mistakes - though, unlike most Premier League teams, Inter didn't press them hard. Guiu made a very good impression and was unlucky not to score. Please, Chelsea, don't buy another striker - Guiu, Jackson, Nkunku and Palmer can bring us the goals.
