Shit defensive display today cost us

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

Early days of a transitional season for us. Good point for Chelsea. Not really a bad point for us away from home. Got to give credit to Sterling and Palmer. You can tell they've been extremely well educated.
A long way to go yet.

Still cannot believe Walker took that free kick.

No I have to say I am left speechless by that, It's not as though Kyle is known for his free kicks. Ridiculous that no one on the pitch pushed him aside whilst saying 'are you mad'.

Also I don’t rate this Akanji going into midfield nonsense. It’s always awkward. If Stones is injured or not playing can’t we just play a normal back four.

You know what..I‘m a bad loser.I just hate City losing.
We should have won that but I will happily accept a point tonight as that was the best game of football I’ve seen since I started watching 50 years ago.
Amazing start to finish.

LOL.. even that City vs Liverpool 2-1 game in Jan 2019 was better!

People ( and pundits) seem to forget that KDB and Stones are missing from this team and we are far from fluent.
All this, the best team in the world is a bit premature the way we are playing (last year yes but not yet this year).
Our transfer business was 50/50 but think we have fucked up with the midfield reinforcements

Really? Better than Italy and Brazil in 82? Better than coming back from 3 nil down to beat Spurs with 10 men? It was a good game but not the best, there are plenty of better ones in that time.

Both Doku and Grealish (especially) need to score more from the positions they get into.

This is not a dig at you but Grealish and score in the same sentence..lol. Even the supposed retention he's renowned for i didnt see today.

So give it Haaland!

First half, Foden shot a cross/lobbed score and Sanchez the keeper 100% would have not reached over his head and not the far corner. Haaland tapped but the angle was fine margins.

 

[dickie davies]

So it’s Akanji’s fault Dias was terrible today?

Yes
