City v Chelsea

[Lee_R]

Kidd out!

Javi Garcia reads the game perfectly. He is never within 10 metres of the ball.

The great observer

Just as he steps up and stops a Chelsea attack. I have a habit of sparking players into life with my criticism, I should try it more often.

A lot has been made of the holistic nonsense, particularly in jest, but since commenting earlier I have been watching Rusnak and he isn't making the sorts of runs that Silva, Aguero or Yaya would be looking for. Once the EDS and youth team play like the first team the youngsters will probably find it easier to break in.

If this was a boxing match they would be on the ropes

[Lee_R]

Fuck off Garcia!

[Sideshow Bob]

DIVE!!

[Green & Blue]

Blatant dive

[patrickblue]

fucks sake

[Lee_R]

Fuck off ref!!

[Green & Blue]

Should have been a card for Mata

[carl_feedthegoat]

Aguero has been utter pap infront of goal...gets away with murder from us fans yet Dzeko gets batterered by us and he scores more !

Go figure !!

[Lee_R]

Maybe its for entertainment value and we'll score 2 this half.. wouldnt surprise me if it was fixed.

[Michael Brookes]

This is exactly like when I play fifa!

Absolutely smash them then they get a shitty header, so I go smash them some more and then they get a phantom penalty!

Sweaty Chelsea goals

[Douglas Higginbottom]

Not sure if it's good to watch or very painful. On a good day's finishing plus maybe a slice of luck we might be 3 ahead but they have been forward t2 or 3 times and score twice.Joe and Vinnie laughable for the first one (could Rekik have got across to cover Vinnie) and Rekik weak on the penalty even if it shouldn't have been given.

Ah well! And how e haven't scored at least one is a mystery...well maybe not. The movement's been great ,some of the touches superb but the finishing woeful.Shame about Rusnak.He might not make the runs which are needed/expected but he is also being ignored a bit too often. The 2nd half will be interesting when changes are made.

ffs doug.. City remember!

[SomeMichaelGuy]

Hart as crap as usual, dodgey decisions, not putting away our chances and a score line that makes no sense...

I'm not sure why I expected flying to America to solve all of our problems. It kinda hasn't. I stayed up for this!

Ps. The kit is growing on me, might sell my car and get one.

Who is on the bench?

The finishing is embarrassing to be honest.

Who is on the bench?

Everybody ... 8 substitutions allowed so expect 3-4 new players come out after the half I guess ...
