Match Thread | Chelsea vs Man City (27/10/13)

[TFC]

Comfortable until they are running at us, then the defence cant seem to cope. Need the big fella up top to help Sergio out which means sacrificing that man in the middle. Sacrifice worth taking at some point though if we are still behind.

We are better than these.

Got 45 mins to save our title challenge, can't lose 3 out of first 9!! Never going to score with this set up, need to go for it, Garcia off, negredo on, come on for fuck sake

Clichy..nasri...passengers

Clichy...not much use for left (or right) back who cant cross for sh*t.

And my God, Clichy cant cross the ball.

 

[bluemoon32]

I know he's still young but Nastasic is nowhere near as good as some on here like to believe.

 

[BigOscar]

Pretty much as expected, they've paked the bus and we've struggled to break them down. Clichy having an absolute shocker. Garcia and Fernandinho have owned midfield, Lampard really should be off already, but we need Yaya and Nasri to offer more going forwards

 

[JoeMercer'sWay]

Right system, lack of a good enough LB and Nasri instead of Negredo and the fact Pele has gambled on Demi who isn't ready and it should have been Micah.

I went for Negredo and Micah instead of Nasri and Demi last night and I think we'd have made more of that half if it had been that lineup.

 

[bert38]

Garcia is like a bloody wardrobe and Clichy has lost his zip and confidence.

 

[Gabriel]

Showing them too much respect, and if we continue to surrender possession and offer up chances as easily as that in the next half, then we might as well go open and play our usual system.

 

[1961_vintage]

Cheeky bid for Baines?

 

[morleyswife]

clichy and garcia are having mares.

fucking shite.

Explain why Garcia is having a bad game you boring predictable dullard.
