Chelsea v EDS Sunday on City+ 10:30am KO, too late, you've missed it.

[Delphinho]

Fair result. The worst game by the EDS in many months. Still 5 points clear at the top of the table

 

[lancs blue]

Maresca needs to stop priortising results at this level and just play the way the club is designe to play. Kids wont learn anything playing like this.

Tbf this has been a very uncharacteristic performance, our football is usually very like the first team.

The Nmecha for Palmer substitution was absolutely baffling

Nailed on penalty at the end. Overall probably a fair result, Chelsea missed two sitters but McAtee missed one for us. Lavia impressed again, as did Callum Doyle. However, for me, even though he is head and shoulders smaller than the others, Gomes was head and shoulders our best player.

[Asa's left peg]

Theyve been great this season, but that was poor. Doyle looked inefective, McAtee looked lost and Lavia looked like General Custer. Poor Delap got no service. Palmer wasn't great either. Maresca needs to ask himself a few questions. A point is good given their track record there, so move on a get back to basics next game.

Surprised and disappointed to see City so totally outplayed. Chelsea should have scored 5 or 6. Chelsea had the freedom of the park on the right side and the City coach did absolutely nothing about it... very poor.

 

[Centurions]

If you add the KO time in the title, more people would be aware of the early kick-off

Excellent idea, sadly I got called away before the match started anyway and haven't even seen the final score :(

And now I'm thinking I picked a good match to miss...

 

[Centurions]

Parked the bus in 2nd half and eventually they score. No surprise

I really hope playing like this is just one off.

Hold on, is he prioritising results or was this a one off? You can't have both.

Busy morning and just watched the game back. Things weren’t as smooth as usual. Lack of service for Delap and some players were off as some posters pointed out.

Learning curve for the lads. They can’t ever be complacent even at that level if they want to prove they are the best. Will be good to see how the bounce back.

 

[FantasyIreland]

Poor game by usual standards.The cohesion wasnt quite there,especially from the midfield and our two centre halves looked like they'd sooner be elsewhere.
Delap put himself about well,and took his goal superbly,while Lavia did ok but didnt quite hit the heights of his capabilities.Doyle was a bit off too,fairly sloppy with his play.
We were pretty lucky to get the point ultimately,as Chelsea looked the better team.

Nmecha is clearly very talented but the application just seems off.Hes going to forfeit what could be an awesome career if he doesnt wake up.

Seemed to give the ball away every time he got it

And didnt much appear too arsed about that,but was happy to blame a team mate.

 

[mancity1]

Full time. 2-2 was probs the fair result. We were poor after the second goal

Thought we grafted out well in the end could easily have been overrun they are a decent side.

Yep, waving his arms about after constantly playing lazy, dangerous passes putting his teammates in trouble. Can’t see him making it with us, I think his physical size helps him look better than he actually is

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Tutu.

Was that the final score

 

[failsworthblueboy]

Thought it was a good result, considering, we were not really at the races. The City tv coverage was terrible, worse than; Perescope tv. Who ever filmed it needs to change there phone.
