I have sent a letter to Fernandino in Portugese demanding an explanation for his actions.

Why on earth did he not deck an Arsenal player as he went down injured ? Would have got a yellow & automatic ban to be served whilst recovering. Slate wiped clean then.

It is these little attention to detail things that make all the difference.

Struggle to see how we combat Hazard and Willian with the same midfield as Thursday. Good on the ball but defensively nowhere near as sound. Still rue that daft tackle by Delph at Wigan last week

First goal could be crucial. Expecting Kevin to take charge of this one.

It's a surprise to hear Pedro could be in for Willian.

One last huge effort after a fantastic week.

Weather etc all ok for tomorrow?

Are you coming down.
I have had to stay in London for an extra 2 nights.
Worked out well though.
Looks easier to get to Manchester from London than Edinburgh on Sunday.
Getting back up north on Monday might not be possible though.

Mard arse.

I don't think the person who would surely have to sit next to him for ninety minutes would thank him.

Pep’s pre match presser. Don’t think it’s been posted.

Says we have to see about Vinny starting.

I think we need a change from Thursday so we're stronger out of possession, but I'm not sure what it should be.

Hopefully we can pray on Chelsea's weak mentality in recent months and get revenge for Taylor's travesty last season.

Amen!

Please predict a defeat and say how you’re not looking forward to this one.

I don’t know about giving us more space on Thursday, I thought Arsenal worked a lot harder than at Wembley and if you watched Sane goal they pressed us very well and it was our utter brilliance of passing that got us out of that! That Sane goal is one the best goals I’ve seen city score it was sublime.

Agree , a goal I just love to watch again and again. Quintessential City !

Is it just me or is Willian the most underrated player in the league, he goes past players for fun.
