***Chelsea v City Official Match Thread***

[Harry Dowd scored]

Rodri is having a fucking mare at the moment. Nowhere near the player he was prior to his injury. A yard slower and his first touch is crap.

Might as well add that Donner kebab is fucking shite in the air. I'd prefer to see Trafford

Nunes getting skinned again and Doku once again wasting our possession up front . only Reilly producing for us at the moment

Spot on & O’Reilly should be in midfield he is not a LB

[carl_feedthegoat]

The sooner Pep gets sent back into the stands the better.

Good from O'Reilly but says a lot when our lb is our only effective attacking option

[Kippax Sean]

Do something with these corners.

[Indianablue]

good break from reilly and a good cross but Cherki could have hit a better shot.

one before the break would be nice, but it could well be Chelsea to get it

A sin he is LB best attacking player we have atm

[bigblue]

Doku needs to play first time more often. would also force the defender to get closer so his dribbling is more effective

[Woodyblue]

Shit corner AGAIN

[carl_feedthegoat]

Shitiest passing we have ever played - disgusting first half.
You’d think Arteta was managing us this half !!

[sheblue]

Can and must do a lot better.

[bigblue]

1/10 performance vs a team that can occasionally be individually dangerous going forward but are terrible at defending. We should be creating loads of chances vs these. 2nd half needs to be much better

[salford city]

We look off it and they look the more likely to hit us on the break. Thought we'd be bang up for this but we were well off it first half. Positive is we are not behind

[Indianablue]

The end product is non existant from us today. Considering our possession and play in the last third , we have been shite.

Doku's last touch is a piss poor. So much of the game is going through him but how many times does he do anything with it apart from lose possession. No wonder Haaland can't be blamed today. Not one City player has found him in that box and only 4 or 5 times has he touched it . Cherki needs to sharpen the fuck up as well.

Chelsea look pretty sharp when Netto gets on the ball and Palmer is a handful so City need to step up a couple of gears this afternoon

Not much in this game but this Premier race is definitely over if we don't change things.

[Indianablue]

I'd be bring on Ake at LB and putting O reilly into midfield. Take off Rodri

[CTID Hants]

Can and must do a lot better.

Absolutely, come out second at it properly please and get O'reilly more involved up the pitch

O’Reilly is being played out of position he is & always will be a fantastic attacking midfielder however the genius thinks otherwise, get Rodri off who is a slow walking red card,

[bigblue]

That could easily have been a pen

[ayrshireblue]

That could easily have been a pen

Thtw should have been a penalty. Palmer cuts his leg across him and doesn't t touch the ball.
Git in Nico

[Indianablue]

thought that was a penalty from Palmers challenge. stepped into him

[bigblue]

GET THE FUCK IN NICO
