Chelsea (A) | Post-Match Thread

Cowardly shithouse touchel starting with 5 defenders, got exactly what him and his shithouse tactics deserved!
 
Bernardo Silva is lokomotiv that doesn't run out of steam, in defence and in attack. He was Man of the match for me.

Rodri bossed the midfield against Kante, Kovacic and Jorghino!!! Dias and Laporte closed shop at the back. Cancelo and Walker provided the support on the left and right. Excellent performance and lots of energy. We looked a different team than that against Southampton!

I wasn't sure we would get anything from this game cause we had Rodri and Laporte out but once I saw the line up and saw Chelsea's lineup I knew we will boss the game and one goal would make all the difference. Did they even have a single shot on target?

The Work rate of the players was immense. This is what we need for the next 2 games

Foden was running all over the pitch but his role as a false 9 was tough for him, once he slipped into KDB's position you could see a revived Foden. But all in all i am ecstatic for the win!!!

Fuck that, a win against PSG puts them in a tricky position to get out of the group. No doubt they’ll be changes, but no way would I be going weak. Imagine winning all three, we’d take some stopping.

PSG is garbage right now, worse than they looked last season. Don't think we need our best team to get a result.
 
Peps tactics were perfect. You could see we neutralised their "out ball" by smothering Kante everytime he got the ball.
We were over him like white blood cells on a virus. 3 players everytime he took possession.
Something we failed to do in the chumps league final.
Every single City player was better than their Chelsea counterpart (except Edison, for obvious reasons).
One of the best City team performances I've ever seen. No weak links, should have got at least 1 more goal, but that's how we roll.
 
Never would I have dreamed if such a performance. Its not the result itself , even though impressive as hell, its the way we got it.
Hat off to Pep and the boys !

A few matches like this and I will definitely have a heart attack...

Phew, what was that - I was literally shaking, even beer couldn't help..
 
Fabulous team performance. Everyone right on their game. Rodri, Bernardo and João best players on the park. Phil, Jesus and Grealish never stopped running from beginning to end. I was really pessimistic about this before the game, never been happier to have been wrong. Exceptional City.
 
Outstanding team performance, Dias immense as always, there was one moment in the game where we were defending and he got hold of Walker and screamed in his ear, a true leader today.
One thing from the dickhead Fletcher that irked me was when he kept bleating on about Chelsea's outstanding defence. He might've done his research better and seen another side who were playing today had an equally miserly defence, but that would've been too easy for the biased prick
 
Most complete performance since the 2-1 win vs Liverpool in Jan 2019 for me. Absolutely in-cred-i-ble

There’s very few teams in the world that can live with us when we play with that intensity

We were fantastic today both on and off the ball. Pressing Chelsea all over the pitch and just didn't let them play. They didn't help themselves by defending with 9 men at all times but that could be because we made them.

Yes it was the off the ball work and all that pressing that won us that game. They worked hard as a team and that made the difference, we pegged Chelsea back and they could barely get out of their own half for probably two thirds of the game. It was only when KDB started to tire and we had to make changes that they started to come into it more. For want of better finishing we would have won by three or four goals. It was a fantastic team performance.
