"Boring, boring Chelsea"

Very good first half. City could have scored early and made things difficult but we came on strong and dominated for a long period. Ivanovic's goal was brilliant. City is missing 3 regular starters and it shows. Dimicheilis has been awful and Dzeko is no Aguero. I have a feeling there will be more goals to come so we need to keep the pressure on.

I dunno if we should/can defend a 1 goal lead, just do more of the same. I am confident we can get couple more

[NishC300 1,865]

Oscar ought to have started ahead of Ramires. Could have been more goals.

[Chels 238]

Dare I say Hazard is the best player in the prem at the mo.

Of course it's going to be hard to replicate this in the 2nd half, but you have to give credit to the players for this first half performance.

I can smell a red card tonight

If Hazard's brother turns out to be half as good as him - he would easily be our 3rd best attacking player in future

[NishC300 1,865]

Absolutely furious with the chances we've lost but a brilliant half from our perspective! We've been incredible!

One thing I've learned in football: there is no way to win without annoying someone. The more they complain about your team, the better, because it means you are annoying them, and are winning.

Regardless of what happens in the second half, it was a perfect lineup for the job. I did complain about the starting XI against WH, but today it made sense - win, draw, or lose.

Hazard has been the best on the pitch so far, the guy's phenomenal.

[Weckerz 3,781]

Hazards assist tally would've gone through the roof this season if we had players who could score =F

[bushman 2,043]

Chelsea are bossing it.

[Special Juan 27,104]

I waited for a bus for 45 minutes and it didn't fucking arrive……Taxi for City.

Did you guys see the replay?? Hazard and Eto'o where lagging behind there in the 4vs1. It's not Willian's and Ramires fault they don't have the same pace.

[NishC300 1,865]

Hazard has completed 6 take ons, while the entire City team has managed 5....

Everything for them is coming down the left - Ivanovic on a yellow.

How many times have we isolated Demichelis - he's on a yellow.

Matic is on a yellow too.

I think you might be right.
