Pre Match Thread: Chelsea vs City

[supercity88]

Could well be, Physioroom are just guessing a lot of the time. If they're not though, then Fabregas, Schurrle, Ivanovic, Luis and Mikel :) I'd take that.

Could well end up like a game of chess. I'd rather have MDM than Mangala in a situation like that.

Actually if Costa does get banned then MDM might be the better option. If Costa plays I'd rather have Mangala on hand to repeatedly bulldoze the ugly c**t.

Without Costa, Demichelis is the better option 100% - he'll be wiser to the Chelsea tricks I think. Even without Mangala I think Demichelis can cope - Kompany can keep Costa in his pocket anyway. It's definitely going to be an interesting game. I think if we get right at them we'll beat them.

Surprised no one has put Dedryk on the team sheet yet (flak jacket on)

He's on my back up list right after this chap:

Anyone think Lampard should get a start on Saturday??

 

[inbetween]

We need to hope and pray that the Ivory Coast lose tonight so that Yaya and Bony will be available.

Depends ... in theory we could play with Fernando/Fernandinho/Lampard and Silva/Jovetic/Kun or Silva/Navas/Kun.

I think it's unlikely though plus I reckon he won't want to play if he can avoid it and will let Pellegrini know that.

I see that little cnut Hazard was diving all over the place again last night v Victimpool.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Is ugly duckly banned or not?

Should hear something today I would imagine

I've just got a sneaky feeling he is going to get away with it, which will be a fuckin joke

Lets see if Oliver got balls or not. Ugly Duckly's history proves what kind of scum bag he is and always will be.
I hope the FA is not intimidated by Maureen The Meerkat .

Yup ..he deserves another slap from Yaya.

Good. After the shit they get up to in the penalty area it's nice to see someone give them a taste of their own Gary Abletts.

I just hope Clattenburg is strong enough to not fall for any Chelsea nonsense, We saw what Chelsea were like last night with players constantly surrounding the ref and Mourinho abusing the officials because my biggest fear going into this game is that we lose on the back of a bullshit decision.

Chelsea aren't all that and are 100% overhyped by the media we are very capable of going down to London and winning.

3-2 City

 

[feedthegoat]

There will be no Yaya win or lose later, the whole team are going back to the Ivory Coast for a reception when they are knocked out and Yaya is captain. We may ask for him to be excused but it's not likely, the Ivory Coast haven't done us any favours in the past with previous requests.

Can we at least get Kolo in his place :P

For me, this is a bigger issue than Costa's stunts.

The Costa issue is pretty straightforward - even taking into account our rivalry with CFC, and the fact that we have a vested interest in seeing him banned, what supporter would attempt to defend him getting away with what he did last night? It was shameful, and Mourinho has confirmed a lot of people's view that he is an unprincipled shithouse for trying to justify it/explain it away.

Hazard, though, continues to get away with cheating in pretty much every match, often with major consequences for the result. Classic dive in the second half last night when he moved the ball toward the area, then changed direction to tangle his legs up with the defender's - clearly a deliberate ploy, but he gets away with it time and again. If referees did their job, he would get booked most games, and CFC would get far fewer free kicks around the box. It's about time someone in the media had the balls to highlight what is going on with him.

@Matt_Law_DT: Costa charged with violent conduct by the FA for stamp on Can. He has until 6pm tomorrow to appeal. Likely three-game ban #cfc

[supercity88]

Costa charged, and rightly so! Doubt they will be able to get it overturned. Rules working in City's favour for once - agenda over!!!

 

[scotty123]

I'm surprised, thought they would bottle it

 

[citytill1die84]

So unless it's overturned he defo misses Sat? If he appeals does he make the City game?
