City are better than Barca.

That's such a bold statement.

I agree our Tempo is a massive issue. We haven't played well at all which is a concern too. It's way too early to write us off, but watching City and Utd, you can't help but feel it's not going far from Utd if they do lose it.

The season just started and we couldn't tell what the result will be .

I could say injurie of Essien, Lampard , Alex and Torres , illness of Drogba are the main reasons that kept us from the champion .

This is fair to every team, no one can tell whether ManU is going to win the league if they lost Carrick ,Feltcher ,Vidic, Rooney and Hernandez .

but I still admit that if their player stay out of injurie , we stand little chance while playing at the level we have shown in 3 previous games.

There's no fault with Built-up play, what we lacked of last season was variety of Tempo

We played well at high Tempo when we are down , but when we were leading , we played like old lady !

If you want to score , you must make your opponent losse concentration..

so we should play at a low tempo and work the ball to their half , then suddenly switch tempo to a higher one , make them unable to cut our pass , so score will be more easy.

Last season was up for grabs, and we took a huge risk not buying replacements and better players, because injuries caught up with us, and everything just happened at once, yes it was very unlucky, but we should of been prepared. A very big shame, i only just hope we can learn from that season, and truthfully i think we have, we seemed to have got some replacements, i think we need about 2 more players and that's it. Our last three games have been no different from the average last season game, painful, stressfull, i think i've mentioned it too many times on this forum haha, i understand you with the tempo, but last season Carlo couldn't motivate the team or anything, he had 0 control over his players. That's why we conceded early when in the lead, but then came back a lot in games when we were behind, which is not a good thing because we shouldn't be down in the first place. Concentration is important, play a simple passing game then in there quater of the pitch step the game up, i don't think it can be that perfect unfortunately.

Agreed.

If the tempo does pick up, in the next few games, we will see optimism return.

Fuck Manure, they aren't invincible. For sure, we have not started this campaign great but AVB is still trying to get his system up and running and when he does we'll be fine. Do I expect to win the league not really but it's not out of the question either.

Go Blues!!!

“I’m sure the lads at Chelsea will be quite happy that no-one is talking about them,"

agree with Ray Wilkins.

Torres may be 27 but he looks like a 17 year old.

I totally agree with you there! He looks miles younger than 27

Champions don't struggle to beat teams of WBA and Norwich at home, they absolutely annihilate them.

Looks like it's City for the title then
