Good to see them playing the United way - long ball after long ball upto the big men.
Pogba - the new Di Maria; soon to be moved on. What an absolute waste of money. Totally overshadowed and out of his depth.
What a magnificent performance - and whilst Bravo is copping some flak for their goal, that was an error which we can put down to poor communication with Stones. If it keeps happening, I'll worry, but, there was just as much of a chance that Hart of Caballero would have spilled it in a similar way, as neither of them were much better with high balls.
So, so much to be positive about. Thank you Pep. That first half was fantastic. So much more to come. The City is ours; the bragging rights are ours.
Oh happy day!

Surprising decision that by Chelsea.

I think KDB has been pretty impressive for you.

very impressive...14 goals in his first season that was cut short by a bad injury........he has had a slow start to this season but his fitness levels have been building and it looks like he is about there now

I'm going to offer Kolarov one of my teeth. He can superglue it in if he wants too.

I'm guessing he'd hammer it in :)

I thought bringing Nacho off was a disaster, although Ferna was the right player to bring on. Each to their own.

Fernando needed to come on at that point, the only options to come off were Kev or Kelechi and given how Kev played it was never going to be him. kelechi was the only option and the right decision. You could say from a personal performance perspective he could of taken off Sterling/Nolito but that messes with the entire setup and ruins our entire tactical plan, take one of them off, you've either pushed Kev there where he's nowhere near effective aand has too much of a tendency to cut in when they were under instructions to stay wide or you've lost a wide man completely and we play with a lopsided team which then releases either of their fullbacks to bomb on constantly and provide a barrage of dangerous balls into the box.

For all their aerial power and long balls they put very few good crosses into the box today and the main reason was because our wide players were not allowing their fullbacks to push forwardd

Ah right. Proper Mourinho then. What a ****.

Wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire, unless I could piss Napalm.

Sterling was fading at that point and Nacho was coming into the game, I would have taken Sterling off, pushed Silva right and left Nacho in the hole. He fixed it by bringing on Sane though, who held the ball up very well.
