If there is any manager I trust, it's mourinho. I'm sure he has something up his sleeves for City. My observation is this: city are struggling defensively. If u look at their past matches this season, they win only by scoring more than the opposition . They have very few clean sheets. They go all out to attack and that will be their undoing. Chelsea on the other hand win by scoring one or two goals, but concede very little and sometimes keep clean sheets. Showing our defence is better than City's. I there fore predict a 3 -1 win in favour of chelsea .

It's not easy to be chelsea main striker . Lukaku is not yet ready to be chelsea main striker . He should be thankful for the loan move. There is alot of pressure on chelsea strikers, you have to have a thick skin to survive. Don't be carried away by his goals at everton or westbrom. The demands are not thesame as playing for chelsea. When torres missed a one on one against united during AVB s reign, the media almost made him commit suicide, but when Dimitar berbatov missed a similar chance nobody heard about it. You have too be strong emotionally to lead chelsea attack not to cry because you missed a penalty. Remember Demba Ba was on fire at newcastle , scoring like falcao but when chelsea bought him, he has been a shadow of himself, can't even make first eleven. Daniel sturridge on loan at westbrom deceived Emenalo with some few goals he scored, but when we brought him back , he couldn't replicate his goal scoring form. So give or take 2more seasons Lukaku will be ready.

Anyone else getting bored of this Lukaku loan saga? I have heard so many mixed reports about him asking to leave/ Jose asking him to leave etc. He is young, talented and undoubtedly part of our future. Just not this season.
I'm getting tired of pundits lambasting Chelsea for letting him go. He scored against City (a goal which Lescott pulled a 'Lescott' and Hart should have saved) and yet, despite Everton losing and Chelsea winning, the only subject that Hansen and Co. could focus on was that of Chelsea's striker issues.
I think it was stupid to let the kid go, but I trust Jose and that's that. Personally, I wouldn't care if Ivanovic ended up with more goals than Torres this season. If we keep on winning then who gives a shit?

Nice analysis. However, Schurlle was the man of the match for me. Before then I'd been wondering why chelsea spent 18m pounds on him, but i now have my answer. Etoo also put in a decent performance. The opposition is not weak as some people say, trying to belittle our performance, afterall they beat us last season.
