City vs chelsea pre match thread.

[without a dream]

It's all about our players keeping their heads today. I imagine Chelsea will set up in the classic Mourinho 'style' and take it in turns to kick Silva up in the air as long as our players keep calm then we're more than good enough to beat them.

Hope the players are viewing Mourinho's comments as fuel for the fire. The amount of flapping his face is doing suggests he is very worried, so let's let the footy do the talking and take the three points.

We should have beaten them at there place, so time to put that right. Expect Silva to be key, and Chelsea to go in hard, hence Mourinho's kcomments about being 'lucky' - if he can convince the ref to not blow for one in three clatters on Silva then they will have more of a chance of breaking up our play. I think that won't work as we will be too quick for them with moving the ball, fancy a red to be show tonight, Ramires or Luiz is my feeling.

I hope Mike Dean is prepared for a tough evening. Chelsea will be physical in an attempt to break up our passing game.
There have been a few blues suggesting we should have won at the Bridge.Don't agree sorry,
we may have deserved a draw on the second half performance,but Chelsea in the 1st half were the better side.

Slightly of topic but today I'm officially a lawyer,just got my results for last year and can't be more happier,I hope it turns into a fantastic evening with us beating Chelsea

Congrats and may you one day be on the side of City crushing Chelsea and others in a FFP case(haha back on topic, but for real congratulations.)

I'd be more confident if Sergio was playing tbh

But still think we have enough for them.

2 - 1

but I'll take the draw if offfered it now ta

 

[inbetween]

A year ago the only Chelsea player that worried me if he was playing was Mata, no reason we can't take the 3 points tonight. Bit nervous but only because we are missing Sergio but then again he wasn't there for the Liverpool game either and we edged that. You just cannot say Negredo won't score on his current form at home and if we defend well I just can't see where Chelsea will get their goal/s from.

A draw at home against a side below us? Fuck that!

Anybody watching SSN now. Dragging players (Ivanovic) and ex managers (Avram Grant) out to tell us
how good Chelsea are. How they've improved etc. I think they might be a tad worried.
Just love the way we keep our own counsel. Think we'll deliver the goods tonight.

Quite the opposite it's hilarious !

The bile being spewed reminds of me of QPR, foaming at the mouth every time they play us where us for us there is no hatred or despise of any kind. Yes this is a far higher profile game but in general Chelsea fans don't dislike City.
