Not sure if serious...?

Palmer hasn't been great but thought Gomes has done quite well so far.

He’s been ok but has given the ball away quite a few times.

Played some wonderful stuff in that first half. That was more like it.

One of the best performance. Totally different City. Reminds me the City of last year.

I'm not even joking when I say this. I genuinely had no idea Jorginho was playing

Or Mount!

Chelsea players have downed tools, certainly not playing for thier manager

Lovely tribute to Vialli.

Love that quote “you dont lose, you win or you learn”

Better without Erling? Behave. You can maybe make an argument for Kev and his lack of backward effort these days leaving our mid exposed. Or if you're comparing last 2 games vs Chelsea then don't ignore Peps terrible tactics last time out.

The “better without Haaland” argument is one of the best examples of Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc you’ll ever find. Might as well be put in the Oxford Reference to get more thick football fans learning the concept.

Great performance from us there, played with good pace throughout...taking some risks as ever with our quick passing but it has worked well so far

City moves the ball really quick and fantastic tempo . Chelsea are huffy and puffing , they need to make a loads of changes
