City v Chelsea (fa cup. 5 th round ) post match thread

[krdskrm]

Absolutely outstanding. Garcia and Lescott looked invincible and I only single them out as they're usually being the targeted for the wrong reasons.mWell done the whole team.

One thing though, is it just me or is there just sometimes that Pants instills more confidence in the team? especially plucking those crosses out of the air for fun? Don't get me wrong, I'm a big joe hart fan but it's great that we have such a competent option.

Maybe Pants inspires the defenders to work harder. He has this underdog, rags-to-riches, hardworker aura and it rubs off the players.

Must admit I'm not Garcias biggest fan but the bloke was brilliant today, fair play and long may it continue

Well, thats fucked the Sunday Supplement up, for sure.

Not really thirty minutes slating Jojo for the dive as he is the first player to drive in the prem this season

Chelsea got lucky in the league game.We were too weak,especially in midfield due to injuries and some of the players playing weren't fully fit either.Everyone conveniently forgets the first 25 minutes as well when we could have scored four with a touch more luck and composure.

With a couple of players back they didn't have a sniff,so much for the special one's tactical genius,absolute over hyped bollocks by a media that kiss his arse at every opportunity!

The league defeat doesn't look so bad now.Win our game in hand and we go above them and we have knocked the gobby fuckers out of the FA cup to boot.

If we can get and retain a fit squad for the business end of the season we will take some stopping.

That was as comprehensive a beating as we've given any team this season we've proved our mental fortitude and with our best players looking sharp and our injured getting back to full fitness things are looking good bring on Barca ................. C'MON !!!!!!!

Think the Barca game has come two weeks too early if I'm honest

Nas back looking sharp, serge might even make the bench and Pell could risk him for 30 mins depending on how the games going and the workrate on display today if we press Barca and deny them space and time like we did to Chelsea anythings possible.

So the world is back on the correct axis now City are scoring again. Loved the look on morinyo's face after Nasri's goal. Brilliant.

He has done one though. I've just heard a bit of it on talkshite,he basically said the best team won (through gritted teeth)
