City Vs Chelsea Pre Match Discussion Thread

[momo88]

Can we make a song about Mancini ... use the words 'Fucking Hell' in it and show our support for the manager at the game this weekend?

Any ideas??

nice idea :) would you sing about mancini if 10 minutes left with 0:2 for chelsea ? and then maicon coming for silva for example

Really looking forward to this game, we need to dominate them in midfield and press so that Hazard and Mata have minimal time on the ball.

Hadn't stopped thinking we could win it but if we get a bad result this weekend and the rags go even further clear, it's pretty much completely over. A MUST win, they played yesterday so their fitness will be shot, their form isn't great, we must win.

Its over, we could win every game 'but we won't' and still Utd will win it, it's not what we do its the fact they won't lose 4 games I am afraid.

Anyway we move on and hopefully win the FA Cup again and runners up. our time will come again but don't make yourself suffer the pain of May 13th will be with them for ever.

The nail has been well and truly struck on the head there. People on here should stop torturing themselves; it's gone.

Yep , it HAS already gone Jim , although as with the ill fated Champions League group , there are the supreme optimists on here who aren't gonna actually believe it until the 'eleventh hour' ....... the simple fact of the matter is that we lost the title a while back when we allowed them to win at the Etihad , and we allowed this six point gap to develop , because never , at any stage since then , have we managed to completely close it .... and quite frankly the rags , as with all title winners in recent years , are not gonna lose more than six games ... at the very most !

This is probably their best EVER league season ...... just like last season was almost certainly ours.

And we won't win at Old Trafford either , the pressure is already too much , even now ...... that game will almost surely provide the rags with their first home draw of the season.

Whether some blues can accept it or not , we ARE now playing for second place .... Mancini already knows that , but has to keep faith to keep his underachieving troops believing ....... but a second placed finish is the SOLE reason why tomorrows game against the current third placed side is definitely a 'must win' , to help ward off the twin threat from both Chelsea and Spurs.

Agreed. That defeat, coupled with our annual loss at the Mackems, sealed our fate back in December. Not only, as you said, have we not been able to close the gap since; it's actually increased significantly. Too many draws (we've ''only'' lost the same number of games as the vermin). A previous manager got slaughtered on here for drawing too many games. C'est La Vie.

Yep , the gap has significantly increased , and 12 points is too much ground to make up , at this pressurised stage of the season , on a side who aren't showing any real signs of slipping up .....

and yes , Sunderland proved to be , yet again , a black day for us ....... Liverpool didn't lose there , Tottenham , Arsenal and Chelsea all won there , and no doubt the rags will too in a month or so's time .

As has already been said we could win all our remaining games , and still not finish champions ... and we just KNOW that City aren't gonna win the lot , don't we ?

QPR, Southampton etc etc

Not a cat in hells chance we will win every game from here on in

I think it'll end up a score draw to be honest, which is a result that's no good to either side.

 

[Gabriel]

Need to start with the same impetus as last weekend and keep them pressed back.

Not the worst if West Ham don't lose either but I agree we need to make a statement and put more pressure on Chelsea.

Funny enough Mata and Ba are the only players who concern me.

If they didn't start like a house on fire in the first 8 games the would be amongst those fighting for Europa at best.

I think its something like 26 points from their last 18 games which is hardly setting the world on fire or the form of side that actually deserves to be in the hunt for Chumps League spot now does it?
