Post match thread - City v Chelsea

[fredmont]

Thought we were ok, plenty of room for improvement but happy with the result anyway.

Fuck me ! You're hard to please.

I thought we were absolutely awesome but then watched Jose's post match interview and realised i'd watched a totally different game.

I wouldn't put money on the English TV pundits doing the same, but big props to Robbie Mustoe on the US coverage for not falling for Jose's load of crap. He immediately called him out on his opinion of the second half and pointed out how much better we were in both halves.

I also don't buy how 'clever' Mourinho is - he uses the pretty simple trick of saying something patently untrue about the game (in his team's favor) and then complimenting the other team on a couple of things to make him seem honest, so you give credence to his patently untrue comments. Why people keep falling for it is an interesting question that could probably support a pretty big thread of its own.

People saying Chelsea were poor??! We were unbelievable today! Great performance!

Great result and strong performance from the team today, hard to pick out MOTM as it was a real team effort....solid at the back, looked dangerous when we went forward. Great noise from the new singing sections too...oh happy day

I wonder if Danny Mills will be singing the same tune?

People saying Chelsea were poor??! We were unbelievable today! Great performance!

West Brom were poor as well. Pretty strange that Mourinho is held up as a master tactician, and Pulis is one who is known to set his teams up pretty well against the big boys - we turn them both over in the space of a week and I'll bet Pellegrini gets fuck all recognition.

Bloody good day all round.

New seat in the new stand, fantastic atmosphere, a record attendance and a massive two fingers up at the Chelsea lot.

Kolarov was brilliant today, MOtM

Another 3 0




Fake result Moreen? Yeah right!! Fuck off back darn south

It should've been 10

 

[Decepticon]

I don't have Sky sports, what did the pundits say about our performance?

 

[DerderderPabloZabaleta]

David Silva is a mesmerising footballer, one particular 360 degree turn to then move past his man and one other in the second half left me literally speechless

 

[kaz7]

Great for the medics to have come on twice and getting your'e getting sacked in the morning haha,you couldn't make it up

 

[malg]

Anyone got a gif of the elbow? I saw fuck all in 116, but know that Costa isn't one to play act and roll around if there's been no contact.....

 

[Silva_Spell]

That's how it's done

 

[Gabriel]

Bravo. Sterling work, as ever, in your selection of imagery.

 

[Ducado]

Not long in over the blue moon with that
