City vs chelsea pre match thread.

[FactsorFiction]

They're going to look to play an even more defence-minded game than West Ham did at theirs the other day. An early goal would really stuff them but if it's still 0-0 after 88 minutes, I will still fancy us to win.

Chelsea doesn't have the kind of players to defend 90mins straight. Theres a reason why the 3 behind the strikers are called 'attacking' midfielders that should atleast cause a few problems for City.

And they play better on the break so as we usually attack will fall in to that bracket, however its whether they have the ability to play well on break against us, I know this may not be a popular train of thought but even a draw would be ok for us. As they showed if they struggle against West ham then there are still more points to be dropped by Chelsea, that said a win would be brilliant.

obvious he would say that.

Chelsea benefited from dubious decisions at the start of the season.

most notably at home to villa.

We lost 3-2 to villa with 2 goals offside.

If Suarez was a penalty for Liverpool we should have had 3 for shirt pulls on corner.

adebayor touched the ball for offside goal

and handball penalty by spurs player

Not forgetting the penalty decision they got against Albion in the last minute.

Chelsea will pack the midfield on Monday. With Serge now out, I think we need to drop to 1 striker:

Hart

Zaba
Kompany
Lescott
Clichy

Milner
Fernandinho
Yaya
Silva
Kolarov

Negredo

Discussion about playing one up front is academic with Pellers , he won't do it if two of our three strikers are fit.
If he had to play one up top , Navas and Jovetic would replace Milner and Kolarov in your side.

I think this year he's making himself look very silly, when you have to try and drum up some sort doubt in the refs mind before the game, its clear he believes he is going to loose the game. he's shitting it and its hilarious. nothing he ways interests me, nothing he says gets a rise from me, he's just making himself look a knob
