Fuckin hell pep that was shit. It’s you’re fault we keep getting countered time and time again. Sort it out. Alverez has to come off. Get Bernie on and stop wasting Phil out wide. I’m usually mega confident nowerdays that we’ll turn it around, but this game just has that feel about it.

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

He’s 10th in the league, he’s 10th in the league

Stones, Bernardo and Kovacic on for the second half. This is the worst we’ve played this season.

Kova would make a huge difference, we could play between the lines.

Walker shocker.. Shocker..

Shoehorning Alvarez in too... Again..

 

[EdersonsSmiley]

About what you expect with a midfield three of Rodri, Akanji and Alvarez.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Chelsea were the better side for me. Really dangerous on the break and should have scored more really.

Not sure why pep thought this line up would work against a fast side. Akanji/Ake and so slow against nippy players. That Jackson has given us a torrid time.

Haaland miss was poor and he has been shit overall as has Alvarez.

 

[MadchesterCity]

Absolutely terrible half, it was coming, Doku and Akanji off and Stones and Bernardo on at HT pls. Ake our best player, performances and results like this lose titles. Need much more from players and fans second half. Oh and Madley is s **** as are the timewasting Cockneys

 

[MellowJoe]

Good game, got 4-1 written all over this

 

[Haaland94]

I said it, most of you said it, but why the hell are we not playing Bernardo and Stonesy? We need them, so if they are fit enough to be in the match squad, they need to be playing. Otherwise, we need Phil in the middle ASAP. Back to the Dias/Stones partnership as well. Why are we experimenting against this tricky Chelsea side?

 

[Keeper!]

1 goal is nothing for this city side.

We average 2 goals per game.

I would take a 1-1 now
