Chelsea was quite lucky 1st half.
Chavs were clinical and that's our task as well.

Sarri called Hudds a physical team, and maybe he thought about how their defenders 'handle' opponent players in their box.

Have a look at 6:10 when 3 defenders holding/catching their man at the same time!
We'll see the same on Sunday for sure...
I hope Marriner is prepared.

Saw MOTD, but this is a good site for seeing how the match pans out. At first glance you see shots per game and think Chelsea dominated. However both sides had 3 shots each in the first half, and in the second it was 11-3 in Chelsea's favour. At home we should do a similar job.

PEP: For @DeBruyneKev and his family its hard but we accept it. Human beings have a limit and these things happen. He will be a big miss. Last season, in terms of injuries, was incredible we have best staff in England.

PEP: @21LVA trained with us in the last few sessions and trained good. Last week he wasn’t fit.

Huddersfield manager David Wagner said he had all 23 players fit to face Manchester City, but Mathias Zanka was injured in training and will miss the game. Jonathan Hogg is also doubtful with a light hip problem.

i'm sorry,but Sam Lee ???? Have you enough cover to replace KDB ? I mean come on ffs,there's one thing in trying to become a voice,and there's one thing asking stupid questions.

He's so called City's journalist for his magazine,so could he not answer the question himself ? Or has he been half asleep for last 2 years ?

Does my head in,idiotic questions

Yup,he's a rag.which obviously makes me very biased against him,but Jesus H, what sort of question is that really ??

Errrrrr,well no,I think we might have to go the academy squad to see whose available,because the window is now closed,so what do you think Sam ? Do you know our squad we have or do you need reminding ? That should of been Pep's response

Has he - have another look :)

Does anybody know any predominantly City pubs on the Wigan/Bolton/Leigh side of town? Or at least ones which are not Red dominated? Looking to watch games in a pub environment but without anti-Blue fervour. Even when I lived and worked in Dubai it was a question of keeping a low profile, especially as Emiratis are known to cause trouble if you are not on their side.

He's probably writing a piece about how City are going to cope without Kevin, and he wants a quote from the manager to go alongside his piece.

Everyone already knows the answer, but that's not really relevant, they just want Pep to say it.

Press conferences aren't really Q&A's with the manager to try and elicit great answers, it's more an opportunity for journalists to get him on the record for whatever piece the editor is asking them for.
