Surprised BT haven't shown possession stats for the first ten minutes. Oh right, it's because it's about 80% to us

I thought they did. Maybe it was after 15 minutes.

It came up about three minutes after I posted. 70%. Must be still nearly the same even after nearly 40 minutes

Not looking forward to Willian's pace. Had preferred Morata to stay on. otter and Stones were handling him well.

shivering thoought, and so true.

wait, but set piecing.... GOOOD!

[Justified logic]

Stirling does the hard things well and the easy things badly. Not having a go at the guy, he's an exciting player, but sometimes frustrating too

Bit like you in constructing a sentence yet spelling his name wrong.

You fucking halfwit.

[nottsblue]

How is that not a yellow on Sterling?

[Swales4ever]

Zola, here, started off ppretty well, but now going OFF SCRIPT:

"I am more impressed by City by the minute. Awfully good!"


NOT A CARD EVEN THERE ; MARTIN KUNT????

[dick dastardley]

No card yet again ref playing to orders

[mr_nool]

Come on! That has to be a card!

[nottsblue]

What a save

[nottsblue]

Not been impressed by Jesus at all today

[dick dastardley]

Not been impressed by Jesus at all today

Needs to get involved!!

[mr_nool]

Not been impressed by Jesus at all today

Very difficult game for him, though. A cheeky goal, but invisible for the rest of the game is alright for me.

[Swales4ever]

Very fine City so far. need to give some credit to opposition on these top flight games.

Just need a little spark in front. Pep will probably up the tempo on the second and hopefully chelsky is going to resent from less rest at the end.

Thrilled but Confident!

edit. I'm gonna take count on how long till when Curtois will make another save as miraculous as an header out of the blue from 5 yds

[london blue 2]

Keep knocking the door lads...

[sheblue]

Excellent performance so far.
Keep at it lads.

I think Chelsea will tire eventually.
We won't get many clearcut chances so we better take them when they come.

We really have to score first.

[sheblue]

The 3 points are there for the taking.

[Justified logic]

Likelihood Chelsea will tire before us? 100%. Just hope we can capitalise.

Bernardo and Gundogan to come on with 20 minutes to go to shake it up.

We will as well though. I doubt we will be able to keep this pressing up for another 45 minutes.
Hopefully we score an early one, so that they have to open up.

[Swales4ever]

AM SHOCKED:

"Incredible show of Character from City all the way through so far."


I HATE YOU MARTIN ATKINS!
