Chelsea were all over the place in their 3-0 defeat to Roma in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

The reigning Premier League champions were never really in the game , falling a goal down in the first minute to a Stephan El Shaarawy strike, and then shipping further goals either side of half-time to El Shaarawy again and then Diego Perotti.

But arguably the Blues' worst moment of the match didn't result in them conceding a goal.

Roma were already 3-0 up when Edin Dzeko raced onto a ball over the top, and incredibly all three of the Blues' centre-backs - Antonio Rudiger, David Luiz and Cesar Azpilicueta - chased after him, only to all be easily turned by the Bosnian.

He then picked out Perotti with a pass, but the Argentina international fired over.

On Twitter, people could barely contain just how hilarious they found the whole thing.

Have you ever seen a Chelsea team defend so badly?
