I can kind of understand the marks. Chelsea players executed their game plan better than we executed ours. So them getting higher marks makes at least some sense. Irrespective of the differing tactics, a player can only do what he’s asked... unless you are Kepa then you do what you want! Not many players played well for us, but I think more players played well for Chelsea, albeit within far less expressive tactics set by the manager.

And what a game plan Chelsea's was! A win or lose cup final, so don't attack enough to have a shot on target in 120 minutes and then start the shoot out with a farcical joke of a penalty before seeing the 'keeper who shouldn't be on the field leaps about so much that he can't get down to Sergio's penalty! "Right lads don't ship six today, but we aren't good enough to win!" The player ratings reflect the attitude of the TV commentators - a side which has been the only trophy winning competition to City over the last few years are now delighted to avoid a pasting.

That's so 1980's ! I hit the unsubscribe ;)

Haha. Maybe that’s it. We gave them such a shafting 2 weeks ago, keeping a clean sheet is a major success for them.

Just seen the Times ratings and it’s even worse: 77 to 66!!!

What game were these clowns watching?? I admit we were not at our best and think overall 6s & 7s are about right, but in what weird universe were Chelsea better by 1 mark a man?

To be fair and balanced Sky gave us both a total of 71 for the starting 11's, which would be about spot on I'd say.

The City marks are probably lower because the media expected so much more from us in the game. Not very accurate or objective but journalists are just people who earn livings by being subjective about most things.

Do you remember after we beat Palace away(the day Stevie slipped)?..Souness went on a mad one saying we didn’t put in a performance like potential champions. We had just won 2-0 away at Palace and dominated the game. He is usually quite good to listen to but he can’t keep a cool head when the pressure is on his beloved club.

Remember that. Is this the same Souness who used to play for that team who'd go one up after 20 mins away from home and then shut up shop?
