Chelsea (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

Huge win after an horrendous start. Looking better in parts but the unforced errors are still there and we still need some of our sick notes back on the field.
I felt sorry for the young lad, in normal circumstances he would never have been thrown in like that. I'd still sign an older center half on the cheap as cover. The two we've signed are for the future.
Chelsea are shite, they're only where they are because loads of other teams, ourselves included, are having a nightmare season.
 
Much better.

Dark times were there it seemed. But Josko really stepped up. Brilliant from him.

Great game from Haaland.

Nunes did a great job too an Bernardo is putting in some shift.

Thought Akanji was abysmal again and really didn’t help khusanov at all. I said last month he’s likely playing hurt but he didn’t looked arsed at all. Thank god stones is back.

Result also won’t reflect the lapses from Kovacic. (Did anyone see him lose his runner around 68 mins and then pick up the ref and start marking him? Embarrassing stuff)

Marmoush gave me serious negredo vibes with his running.

Khusanov looked like he shit himself when the Tony Book tribute began. He’ll be fine surely, live and learn.

Let’s win v Brugge and start building.
 
The boys in blue didn’t give in they fought to the end. Thank you, City thank you lads. Thank you fans.

You showed them you showed them all.
Especially those southern softies the pensioners.
Especially the know nowt pretend media ha ha take that.
Especially the Specsavers needing whistleblowing nincompoops. Now do you admit who we are? We are: MANCHESTER CITY. THE BEST TEAM IN THE LAND IN ALL THE WORLD.
WELCOME BACK, JOHN BOY WE MISSED YOU AND YOU SHOWED THEM WHAT TO DO.
If we had a man of the match thread, I would’ve voted for you. Instead, I have to sit here knowing you were the best player on the field and not able to acknowledge it. :-) ;-)
Oh well, such is life in Eccles Blue’s world. I will recover one day. :-(
 
A completely deserved victory. Gvardiol was excellent, and I’d especially highlight Nunes and Berna. Marmoush looks like he’ll be good, although his work rate didn’t seem the best yet. We’ll see as he still needs more training with the team.
I thought his work rate was pretty good tbf. There was one action I remember where he went all the way back with the winger and won it back for us doubling up with Gvardiol.
 
Let him get a few games under his belt before we start getting giddy
Not giddy mate.

I know what I see ..

Imho he's fit , he plays.

Energy upfront and into midfield.

Strikes me as a player who even if he has a shit game would walk away with a 7 or 8 rating like bernado used too.
 
Yes, although Haalands second half was impressive. And his hair at the end.
I absolutely loved his goal. Not just because it gave us the lead but it was typical of one that's usually scored against us and wins Goal of the Month. Not often I say WOW at ours!
FYI he won't win GOTM - a Salah/ Nunes/ Fernandes/ Odegaard tap in will...
 
I'm on holiday.
And like I've said before I gave my ticket to a mate this season.
My dad's ticket is next to mine I put his on the exchange a couple of weeks ago as he's gone to watch buxton.
I just got a text off the lad who has my seat.
The club have sold my dads ticket to a Chelsea fan.
Lucky my mate is chilled.
If I'd been sat there I would have gone mental and probably banned.
This has taken the gloss off a great result and proper got my mad up.
Anyone any idea who or where I complain to as I'm not letting this one go.
Up the blues
Absolutely ridiculous that, can you not just put your ticket on here in future? At least you know it’s going to a blue.
 
Very un City like identity but I’ll have it.

More balls over the top than we’ve seen in the Pep years combined.

This guy in his best game for months. Grafted his bollocks off and the way he put his arm round Khusanov post error was very professional and captain esque.
Bernardo ‘Starbucks’ Silva. Get him a bigger cup because he worked his socks off!
 
Wow just wow, I felt really sorry for the young lad after gifting a goal and then getting booked within the 1st 6 minutes.

But on the flipside Marmoush what a players he's going to be as good of a debut as I've seen for awhile.

Josko was my motm, but Bernardo, what a game he had.

"City are back, City are back, hello hello City are back".

Now lets get the win on Wednesday.

Well done blue boys.
 
Gvardiol immense.

Marmoush some excellent runs will be some player.

Haaland, well just Haalands

Thought Nunes looked solid too.

Silva and gundogan best games in a while.
Yeah, the guy had a ton of great runs behind the defenders, but either they didn’t notice him or they didn’t dare to play the pass.
 
Well earned after a very shaky start a performance we can be very content with.

A turn back in time of sorts and hopefully the start of a run that will steady the ship this season.
