City v Chelsea post match

A bit obvious mate—stick with your strengths: rationalising your club's slow slide into oblivion.
My club WILL be sliding into oblivion with shit defend like we saw today. 2 games against top 4 opposition and we've come up short. 4 home games without a win. It's all the in black and white. Stats don't lie.
 
Goals are the whole point of the game. Doesn't matter if you play the best football.

The players constantly needs 5-6 chances before they score. Not good enough currently.

It's also a problem that we have defenders that can't defend and a keeper that can't stop shots.
How us poor finishing pep's fault? Half the posts on here are slagging pep off. Set us up perfectly and first half we were great. It was only first 10 mins of second half we couldn't hit a barn door with a banjo. Defending is shite but that's more to do with having shit defenders than poor tactics. Pep not at fault today, ref and players were
 
Conte had only 3-4 months working with this Chelsea side and they just keep fucking winning, big games as well Spurs home winning from behind, City away winning from behind, lot of mental strength there and clinical front of goal while strong at the back. How many last second blocks they made today either locking crosses or shots? Fucking hell.
They are the team to beat this season imo. Today was a big statement for Conte.

While we finally had a whole week to prepare , Pep even said he gave players two days off, well next time keep them on training only for finishing chances maybe because it cost in all our home games where we didnt win.
Kun Agüero would have missed Costa's chance, Hazard's chance and Willian's chance as well today. Too much fucking misfiring, and then KDB's open chance WTF was that? At 1-0 up going 2-0 up?

Our defensive displays are not much different imo to what we had under Pellegrini. We spent another huge load money on Stones, next season 100% we spend another 50-60m on one defender but until the system starts to work we wont have clean sheets.

Chelsea won 8 league games in a row, conceded last week vs Eriksen and today that Cahill own goal. In 8 games only 2 goals conceded.

After Pochettino, Conte did his homework on Pep too, and its a big worry after last season how shit we were against top8 teams generally,this season hardly better so far, Spurs loss, Chelsea loss at least we beat United away. Wenger, Klopp imo will know what to do against us.

We still dont really know what to do with Sane and with Jesus coming Sane's limited game time could be even less so that doesnt look very well for the German...

As for Chelsea they won 8 in a row, now they have WBA, then Sunderland ala Moyes...
Thats 10 win in a row right there easily.

Conte knows his team, the strenghts, the weaknesses what he seen after first couple of games then came up with a plan 343 finding the right place for everyone in it and so far it works. Now he needs to keep up the hunger, motivation over a long season and we will see their reaction if their form will drop a bit, but the way they won two big games from behind last week and today that just makes me angry.
 
What? for having an OPINION on a FORUM. Did we watch the same game? Shit formation, shit subs cost us, as well as poor finishing. Clichy was awful when he came in, as was Nacho.

You have a post history that tells us all we need to know thankfully....
 
Are you totally pissed ??? Red card all day long.Had it been a Chelsea player doing that you`d have been screaming for a lynching.
Yup you are right I am screaming for a lynching of luiz when he should have been red carded right at the start of the damn game.. but I guess it's cool just to bag out our players indiscretions?? I see.
 
When you end up with Ota, kolarov, clichy and Bravo in goal can you seriously expect a clean sheet against a relegation side let alone a top team like Chelsea. Feel sorry for pep he's got slot of shit defenders to choose from perhaps that's why he goes all out to attack.
Haha too true but it was pep who put us in that situation.
 
I'm not sure what people expect. We are rebuilding and on the whole doing pretty well in the competitions that count. We have brought in the necessary attacking personnel and now need to upgrade part of the defence.

For being a nob. Where were u when weve won or even tonked barca. Didnt see your name pop up calling manager a fraud then. Shite result against an inform chelsea and a biased ref giving us nothing. When we get back to winning ways i ll be looking our for your handle to see how u feel then.
 
Stones and otamendi both have to go. Lescott is even better than them ffs.
Don't be stupid - Stones is 22 for Gods sake. Agree to an extent with Otamendi because not only does he rarely dominate a big centre forward he has no clue about defending a counter attack based team. I would say the two biggest problems in our defence are Kolarov who gives no-one in the team confidence and I'm sick of seeing his face facing his own goal as a player who has run away from him scores, and Otamendi - Stones will be fine.
