Still, he gave some very general thoughts:<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s hard to make that call\u2026 I felt like with all the injuries we\u2019ve got in our squad, it was an even game in my opinion. I think that shows the level of this group, the quality of this group. We haven\u2019t done it on a consistent basis otherwise we wouldn\u2019t be where we are in the league. But there\u2019s also been a lot of change.<\/p>\n \u201cThere\u2019s also been a lot that\u2019s gone on at the club. It\u2019s not my place to say what\u2019s right or wrong but that can affect momentum and that can affect the group.<\/p>\n \u201cBut when this group is at their best, I think we\u2019re up there with anyone in Europe. So how do we produce that on a more consistent basis? That\u2019s what we\u2019ll be looking at at the end of the season. That\u2019s what we\u2019re trying to help the group with. So they have to want to produce that and they\u2019re capable of doing that.\u201d<\/p>\n Levi Colwill\u2019s performance was another talking point from the game, and McFarlane spoke about the defender in glowing terms.<\/p>\n Colwill looks almost certain to miss tomorrow\u2019s game after the latest updates from Chelsea\u2019s caretaker coach on his fitness.<\/p>\n DOWNLOAD THE OFFICIAL CHELSEA NEWS APP FOR ALL THE LATEST UPDATES \u2013 STRAIGHT TO YOUR PHONE!
