Pep, who the press should be hailing as the foremost coach in the world, just gets used to clickbait other clubs - this Chelsea puff piece headline bears no relation to the article itself!

Guardiola "stunned by Chelsea Star"

Even by the (low) standards of the MSM, msn.com is appalling and should just be ignored in it's entirety.

Now a collections of autocue readers and fanboys who are more interested with being personalities.

95 per cent of the people in the industry are complete wankers and charlatans. Count on one hand the people I would consider friends after thirty years.

Horrible people

Funny you should think that as I have a small tale about the reporters covering City. A few years ago we played Juventus and the plane was due to leave after the game. For reasons I cant remember our plane had to wait to the following day. City arranged for everybody to get back to Turin and laid on a meal in a restaurant. I was sat at a long table with all the reporters, next to Simon Mullock who I had a good chat with. The others all looked as though it was an insult to them that a fan was sat amongst them and avoided all eye contact and I think if I had tried to talk to them they would have ignored me anyway. They came across as arrogant snobs, now it could just be me they didn't like, its happened before once or twice or even more than that. ;-)
But I agree with your post, with the exception of Simon Mullock, horrible people.

That prick Chris Sutton claiming the City bench is “unfair”. That was the buzz word last night. Never fucking ends

Sutton's gone to seed, he's a dense yokel.

Where was the media cry recently when Antony and Maguire came on for United...that was £160 million worth of substitutes too haha!!!.

In fact they cost over £170m I believe

They were fixated on the number of touches made by Haaland until he made two fantastic defensive headers in his own box and the narrative didn't work any more. Why do these TV pundits always look for negative angles instead of just reporting fairly on what is the world's greatest sport. I thought Carragher was terrible last night. The "poor old Chelsea" financial narrative was absurd given they have spent more than us on their squad.

To answer your question bobby, both of them are incapable of looking at the game impartially and are too rooted in their roots at the rags and dippers.

They actually make themselves sound even more stupid than normal when they ignore the thruth in front of them regarding relative spending.

Chelsea and poor in the same fucking sentence - really !!

Connor McNamara on the other hand said that we'd won on our last 4 visits to Stamford Bridge and not many teams do that. I know who I'd rather be listening to on commentary. Soon as I saw it was Tiresome & Spitty on comms for Sky I switched to an alternate stream.

I watched with the sound off, as I knew it would be the best option.

I wish they still had the crowd noise only option so you can get the atmosphere without Tyler, Spitty and Rat Boy whining on.

The depressed tone of the commentary as Mahrez’s finish hit the back of the net was a thing for of beauty. Wish I knew how to put a vid of that on Bluemoon….

Chelsea have just lost to City at home and sky are talking about utd winning the league, you couldn't make it up.

That irritating SKY anchor/Presenter trying to get utd into every point is doing my head in. They’ve had a nice easy run of fixtures. Fulham, Wolves, Forest & Bournemouth ffs.

I cancelled my licence years ago and have had 3 visits from the licence fee goons (capita). All you have to say is that you revoke their implied right to access and close the door.
