Chelsea (H) | Post-Match Thread

[we are the east stand]

Not to get anywhere near the CL Final:

Mendy
Sterling
Jesus
Rodri
Cancelo
Torres
And sadly, Aguero (unless a short cameo)

Agree with that bar Rodri, was out on his own for most of today - on a hiding to nothing.

no, you would have to be real stupid to give chelsea a look at your best eleven two weeks before you play them in a champions league final. and the game was won before half time if kun scores the penalty

So tuchel is really stupid? Cause he almost played his best side and played the way they alwyas play.. Trash them 4:0 with your best line up and thats job done.

Wrong team selection I'm afraid. Had chance to wrap the title up then rotate towards the final.

Sky getting too excited over Chelsea, they have beaten our weakened team twice.

Aguero is a legend but penalty was embarrassing on his part. Should of gone in 2 nil.

Baffled how VAR doesn't give a pen for sterling but not surprised in the slightest.

Over optimistic from Pep and a few on here, and dont tell me we were a penalty miss away cos chavs bossed that second half and deserved the win.

Now means we have a game less to get the league sorted......doesnt make sense to me.....fcking gutted tbh.

If they had gone in at half time 2 nil down the game changes completely. I'd wager Kante and Ziyech come off early too.

I am scared we are going to miss a pen in CL final too and its gonna cost us dearly.

What Kun did there at 1-0 up is horrible, if its 6-0 its ok to do a pen like that, but at 1-0 in a game like this , he deserves whatever he gets from Pep and it wont be full of praises...

Second half we were absolute shit, we did not get a clear pen, we are not Man United for sure who get pens for half of these faults too.
But Chelsea scored two and scored two more which were just offside, they nearly caught us out on those too.

Rodri, Ake, Mendy all were imo rubbish and the rest too to be fair.

Hopefully it was just a trick from Pep to try to mask our tactics for the CL final, as if we do this formation with wahtever line up it wont work. We need to pay to our strengths, this formation sucks for us.

Go back to false nine for one more game in the final. We need big revamp of the squad in the summer, a top top striker who will make it worth to change from false 9 system because Kun and Jesus aint that...
Upgrade on Mendy, replacement of Fernandinho is a must. And then we have to see how Sterling's contract pans out, I would not be against cashing in on him and get a technically much better wide player. (Rather than give in to his contract demands as he nowhere near deserves 300K or above that.)

Sorry to say it City you were a joke

 

[Xhavenjoe]

They have really got to take the penalty thing seriously.
No one knows who's gonna take the next one.
I cannot think of any other top club that does not have a recognised penalty taker.

 

[The1nvisibleMan]

Asp Rodri needs to get a grip. How many times does he have to get caught out on the ball before he fixes that shit.

 

[Cornish_Blue]

Tuchel knows how to beat Pep. We won’t be winning CL.

 

[SWP's back]

Well played Chelsea. You can look forward to beating us in the CL also.

Yet again we spunk away chance after chance, and gift away possession.
Typical CITY.

Mendy, Sterling, Cancelo, Torres, Jesus all now know why they aren’t playing regularly.

Today’s game only made me more positive we will win comfortably in the CL. That was our B team playing badly and we had enough to beat them but for brain farts and shite reffing.
