MIchelle actually won the ball quite a lot for City, he's not a good football in any way of course, but it's not like he has been the reason for City sucking a bit here.

Chelsea want this more. Their transitions are faster and sharper and they are looking more powerful on the loose balls. City still have a few gears to go through but I can smell a red card coming. They've started to get ragged.

And attack, it has been pretty easy for Chelsea to get into good positions, but the movement from Hazard/Willian/Ramires is proving to be too much for Man Shitty right now.
Kompany looks like an abused horse in defence, no good backup.

I laughed.
Willian is so shit, and Eto'o... and Chelsea are walking it right now in spite of this. Mourinho is an amazing manager, don't agree with a lot of what he does but he gets things done.
What happened to City.... The Beast is barely in the game, being starved.

Quite surprised at City choking here.
Still only 1 goal though, so nothing's lost....yet.

Should be up at least one more goal, but very, very good thus far at both ends. Not sure we can hold on up just one goal.
Wilian absolutely needs to come off. He's done next to nothing positive. In fact, he's stunting the forward movement of Hazard by giving balls away or making a terrible decision.
Hazard is worth every bit of the £180k+ he's making this week.

Nevermind the actual fact that Benitez stated several times (before it was decided Moyes was taking over United) and I believe even SAF said they knew Mou was coming.
But let the poor folks believe what they want, especially the United cunts, it can only be more depressing for them to think they could have had Mou.

Ah yeh. Well neither us or Cech have scored so far. Chelsea have played really well.
City have not bottled it. Chelsea have been up for it. It can turn around pretty fast. Chelsea just have a fantastic squad now. Perfect balanced.

City need to make a change.

Haha wow alright, TV just highlighted Michelle just walking around after Hazard penetrating him for the goal... Yeah, that was worse than I saw at first.

I've almost forgotten what it's like to lose at home
All we need is to get 1 back early and things can change. Will be curious to see if he makes a change at HT. Wouldn't mind seeing Jovetic come on for Dzeko.
We also scored twice.

"Man City narrowly lose, as Fernandinho and Aguero miss the game through injury" should do. Though you will get a lot of hate, it's the best possible spin.
I hope B Rod is looking at how Mourinho has set up tonight.
Whilst our fullbacks are fucked and our midfield is weak, having 6 sit back and giving 4 (ideally Studge, Sterling, Suarez and Hendo) free roam to attack on the break could well be a tactic that would work for us in the short term.

Barca has finally gotten some hope in trashing them.

What are you doing here?

I'd consider putting Mr. Glass in there with Dzeko being wasteful as usual and Negredo a complete no-show.
Should have bought those players Pelle.
Is he injured?
Milner would have probably done better, at least he doesn't stop working.
Is he injured?
This... Is workable.
Don't forget Nasri.
Thor is killing us just as much as Hazard.
Maybe in the moral league.
Rodwell didn't play well the other day -- he's recently coming back from his injury so I think he was a little concerned about that. Garcia is out injured. Milner was injured and missed the Spurs game due to it. Think he probably didn't want to risk him from the start. We'll see.
All three are barely fit for this match...

Have you considered "City come back to stun Chelsea with a Negredo double"?
I mean I was kind of confident about this game from the start, but that sounds like something that might happen.

Garcia is their best player, i have no idea why he doesn't start more often.
I would say he is our best player we bought from Benfica but that's not even true.
Bigger deal if we lose 1-0 is that City have scored in 55 straight at home in the league and 61 overall. That would be a pretty big streak to end.
Man City's owners are American?
