Chelsea (H) | Post-Match Thread

If Mendy ever wears a city shirt again it’s a disgrace.

 

[cucumberman]

City sloppy.
Chelsea stubborn.

Have to say this. Even with our full strength team, CL looks more to Chelsea if we can’t get to address the stubborn tactics Tuchel has.

Nevermind penalty calls and free kicks. If we cant’t cause trouble to Chelsea in open play, CL will be squeaky bum.

Tuchel has managed to exploit our strength to become our weakness. How easy was chelsea to draw our players out of position, or steal the ball of our players’ feet. Chelseas not better at passing, they just know our positional play.

Keep Mendy away from the CL final.

 

[The1nvisibleMan]

no, you would have to be real stupid to give chelsea a look at your best eleven two weeks before you play them in a champions league final. and the game was won before half time if kun scores the penalty

They got no access to technology I presume? They’re gonna know how we play anyway

 

[BerkshireBlue]

i said months ago the league would end up very close. We still need a win.

No we don't just two draws. Plus United aren't going to win 5 games on the trott. The league is done

 

[Phoenix900000]

Actually it would have gotten us a 2-0 half time lead if our all time leading goal scorer wasn’t now a fucking idiot.

Fair point

 

[CmonCity92]

I've seen Messi work harder defensively than Sterling did today... absolutely shameful. Rodri with his hands on his knees after 10 mins... jesus christ that one has me bitter.

 

[discopop]

Well played Chelsea. You can look forward to beating us in the CL also.

Yet again we spunk away chance after chance, and gift away possession.
Typical CITY.

Mendy, Sterling, Cancelo, Torres, Jesus all now know why they aren’t playing regularly.

Sterling? Lmao stick to bird watching

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

A humbling experience for the club. I can only think there is a lot of complacency around the team and given the performance that looks about right...

If there was any gamesmanship from pep then it’s almost certainly worked against us. Chavs now 2 nil in those stakes which will give them the belief they need for the chumps.

I feel sorry for Kun but it was pretty stupid to do, chavs have one of the best defences in the league, you don’t get many chances so you can’t spunk pens like that.

ah well, onwards blues.

 

[madden150]

Tuchel has Pep's number, Chelsea have our number and they look very comfortable against us.

We better win the big one.

Even then, Chelsea look like more than a threat next season. We look decidedly undynamic and one paced against them.

Annoying as today is, we've played them twice in 3 weeks with a below strength starting 11. Tuchel hasn't played our best team yet. If we are soundly beat in the CL final then fair enough but I'll reserve judgement until then.

 

[skillman]

On Pep, that. Absolute shite. Not like he didn’t know it was coming given he did the exact same against them at Wembley and had our pants pulled down.

How that wasn’t a penalty at the end either amazes me. Clipped his heel then left knee then right knee then falls on top of him?!

Fuck off.

 

[worsleyweb]

Ha, you were wrong months ago and you're wrong now.

the most we can win it by is?

 

[hammocity]

Nor reading anymore, just a bunch of self entitled wankers, ffs, Pep is managing the squad. Some on here deserve Fat Sam

 

[Luke The Blue]

We must be underdogs now

Do you watch football, our second team is wank as a team... and they have struggled with us twice

 

[ysmsa]

You cock

Its fair point, title decider and doing that.
Shouldn't have stepped up unless he was confident, no way had he planned on a Panenka before the game!

We've put out 2 shit teams against this lot who are not great and they have won 2. Gives them a huge psychological advantage for the Final.

No defending that bollocks today.

 

[Brewster's millions]

Shit team = shit performance = shit result.

Not that fucking difficult to work out and there was no need to lose that today.

Ake and Torres really poor.

Mendy was Mendy and that’s all that needs saying. Why the fuck he gets picked I’ll never know. We have umpteen feeder clubs and kids in the reserves earning thousands a week and he’s the best left back that we can put out? Genuinely bizarre.

 

[citytill1die84]

Not wrong though.

Fucking mad arse

 

[ancoats]

We haven’t got the pace to match them, even with a full strength team. That won’t necessarily be the deciding factor, but their style is a major inconvenience to us, 50/50.

our best 11 keep the ball so well and maks you chance the ball around and it kills the legs
yes chelsea will be hard to beat but so will city

 

[Inter Me Nan]

Aguero just lost his halo, that penalty was like sticking two fingers up

Obvious rag **** is obvious.

 

[christened at st marks]

Fuk we are all pissed off but to turn on Kun, who are you people.

 

[RayCTID]

Nothing to do with team selection, the title was there for taking but the desire seemed to be missing today.

We had plenty of desire up until the penalty miss. We should of had another one as well.
