No wonder ticket prices are so damn high at the Emirates.

most exciting moment on that ride is when we start slowly from the top, and straight down the lowest point.

Congratulations to Manchester City well done.

It's a shame we didn't do better but we lost some stupid games.

Am soooo Fucking Happy that The Scum from the Slum didn't win it, that would have devalued the Premiership

Well done Stevie G you slipped at the right moment

God I hate Scousers the most vile brain dead animals around...they'll tie a few scarfs to some railing and mourn their loss and go on about it for years then have a inquire to find someone to blame.

Next season will be tough we will get some propper strikers City will buy as will Utd, and with Champions League football it will prove too much for a small club like Loserpool.

Come on you Blues

It's a combination of the way City use their full-backs (they push far further on then our's and provide the width because, in general, their 'wingers' tuck in whereas we play with more conventional wingers in Hazard, Salah etc.) but also the fact that they have targets in the box in the form of strikers. Look at their first goal against Palace - it was a diagonal ball played in by Toure to a target man (Dzeko in this case). We simply don't have that, and whilst Ivanovic and Zabaleta both played the same number of crosses into the box against Norwich and Villa respectively, they were playing to entirely different types of target men.

The only conventional winger we have is Salah, and even he drifts in when he plays on the right (him being left footed and all). Hazard likes to cuts in on his right, Schurrle does too. Willian always drifts into the middle as well.

Hence why we really need overlapping fullbacks if we want to be a complete team. It isn't just City - every top side in Europe has fullbacks that can make an impact in the final third. We don't.

Conventional in the sense that the wingers are the ones who provide width, not left-footed players on the left-wing going on the outside of a man and then crossing the ball in. I was discussing this aspect in relation to City's use of wingers or lack thereof.

You completely overlooked the point that I made that full-backs need a target and that's something we're direly lacking at the moment. Azpi and Ivanovic have both shown the ability to be effective in the final third so saying we don't have them ignores a lot of what actually happens at our matches. Put in a good target man and our play changes drastically. But of course there will be 6 or 7 'fans' who would rather stick to their agenda.

I'm not ignoring it, I omitted it from my reply because I actually agree with you on that.

You can continue with your childish "6/7" agenda though, doesn't faze me at all lol.

Edit:

In response to City's lack of wingers, you're completely forgetting Navas who is a pure winger, purer than any we have, and Zabaleta still overlaps him.

We don't have our fullbacks overlapping to provide extra width because they're bad going forward - well we actually do (Ivanovic) but his impact in the final third is poor. Azpi is decent in his natural position though.

He's usually a very good member on the forum but he's just being childish atm.

Now this is class. Some probably would have gotten wound up (I know I would) - props to you for being the bigger person, Skipper.

Cheers.

Glad you havnt ignored him. We're all chelsea fans and are passionate about our club in our own way and I respect that.

He's an excellent poster on this forum. Him along with you, and Barbara are the peoples posts I click on like the most, bcos you guys put what I want to say in a better way most of the time.

It will be sad if you both don't have debates regularly bcos the quality of this forum will drastically reduce.

Well done City! Thanks West Ham for helping us keep our goalscoring record.... just :-D

[bushman 2,043]

Well the title run in is over. Chelsea ended 3rd & won no trophies.

Under Jose the team was not playing well, especially games the bottom teams & played " parking the bus " in several games, Citeh, Liverpool, Arsenal just a few to mention here.

Should we be happy or even question Jose´s tactics? I believe, we should.

Ne sense to dwell on it now, but he must do much better next season & most of all start playing an offensive football.

OUR GOALSCORING RECORD STANDS!
