Don't underestimate the performance of the front 3, they basically kept 5 Chelsea players busy. Superb.

This - what a shift Jesus put in - some people might have thought that he had a quiet game - but he played his part
 
Hopefully if we can maintain that level and have a bit of luck along the way, the 2nd Place Trophy could well be ours this year.

There was a time when pressing us was he answer - this time last year we were very vulnerable to it - but now the players we have are so comfortable on the ball, so at ease with the system, that pressing us will be suicidal and Conte knows that. The structure we have in the team with 3 or 4 options for the man with the ball at all times, the accuracy of Edersons distribution, the width that we maintain with the two wingers on the touch line means that pressing us effectively is going to be almost impossible.

I'm looking forward to seeing someone try to really get after us with a press, we'll score a ton.

If a side is going to press this City team, they have to be absolute fucking experts at it, not just decide to do it on the day.

It's like us, under Mancini or the Pelle, playing Barca & going 'oh we'll press these today, that will stop them'. Erm..
 
You people are easily pleased (don't whoosh this, anyone).
 
One of Pep's mantra's is it isn't about star player's or ego's but about the team, the philosophy and the system and way of playing. Yesterday missing three star player's and characters it all came to fruition.
 
Was out last night so not had chance to post. Absolute complete performance with all the team contributing.

I think we have found a very capable understudy to Mendy in Delph, superb match.

Chuffed to bits for John Stones, that was the best I have seen from him. He gets so much shit from rival supporters especially Stretford and lets hope he can build on this and develop into the world class cb that we know he can be.

KDB what can you say masterclass performance. We need to get that extended contract sorted asap
 
I didn't see the game and meant to tape it, but being a fucking moron forgot to. I had I initially voted a draw, but changed to a win after Aguero was hurt as I thought and hoped they would step up to the plate.

It looks like you did. Well in. :)
