Match Thread | Man City vs Chelsea (15/01/22)

[journolud]

My customary token glance at the match day thread to see what all the bed wettest are saying. Sigh…

 

[pudge]

raz is doing fantastic

Needs to go at Alonso a lot more

 

[Damanino]

We had two great low crosses into the box one by Foden other one maybe Sterling and absolutely no one inside where a top striker would arrive to smash it. just a big empty space with 2 Chelsea defenders clearing it.

problem is Jesus isnt anywhere near clinical to turn these into goals.

but at least he scored the goal from a deflected shot in last Chelsea game.

we played much better imo in that game than today s far, we did create some great shots in that game and forced Mendy to pull off some top saves.

Grealish's only chance was them giving it away and Grealish not able to do a calm finish on it.

still worried they make one good break and score from it, dont want this to be a first on target shot = 1 goal for them.

come on City!

More like low level intelligence and bias

Childish error mate, you just know that that's what he calls the Etihad off air.

 

[super_city_si]

Poor finish from grealish. Kepa just spread and grealish hit him. Only needed to lift it half a foot and its in.

 

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

Been one of Grealish’s biggest supporters but he has to do better there! Such a big chance

 

[madloaf]

"Delighted 0-0 for team who've touched the ball 8 times in a half."
BINGO

 

[cookster]

Haaland makes this comfortable. These tight games are where we need a top finisher.

 

[Keeper!]

Grealish is fine overall, but for £100m I think we expected extraordinary…

Unfortunately he’ll always labour under the yoke of that fee.

Fine? what are you watching, that chance, his first touch was Sunday league standard.

 

[Bill Walker]

That miss will cost us the game.

Can I borrow your crystal ball

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Rio talking about the light blue shirts pressing the dark blue shirts.

Somebody take it's fuckin' ironing board off him because the daft **** has steam coming out of his ears : /

 

[Fordyboy46]

A fascinating tactical battle say bt, substitute that for pretty much a shit game. Too many of our lads not at it so far, Gundogan on for Kev if he persists to be poor, Foden also not got going, Grealish wtf was that effort. Need to up it 2nd half because you can't honestly see where a goal is coming from

 

[itsnevereasy]

That miss will cost us the game.

That save…

 

[pudge]

Bit more oomph from Walker and Cancelo when they're on the ball and the space and 1v1s are on for us

 

[Petetheblu]

Shay Given has just said "we".....

We're getting there :^)

 

[Keeper!]

That save…

MISS

 

[nellyonthewing]

I’m glad Tuchel never ended up at the swamp. He’s got them well organised and they move the ball well. They are looking to pounce on one chance then shut up shop. We had great chances at 34 and 37 minutes that Aguero would have relished.

 

[kun]

Fine? what are you watching, that chance, his first touch was Sunday league standard.

Fucking hell grow up.

“Sunday League standard” like you haven’t seen Kun Agüero, David Silva, Edin Džeko miss scores of those kind of chances.

 

[cookster]

That save…

Poor first touch made it a save.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Can’t get my head around KDB at the moment, his radar continues to be alarmingly off, not discounting the catch up of injuries and Covid but his short game, never mind long, has been atrocious for a while, the 3 of Rodri, Bernardo and gundo so much more effective!
