Closed Man City v Chelsea

[bouletje 82]

Easy, we'll piss all over these Manc twat's.

You watch them park the bus. Lol.

Like that attitude.

Start pissing your pants city, we're going in there wet or dry!

Think set pieces is an area where we can hurt City as they have not looked all that convincing when defending those situations lately. Cardiff scored from one not too long ago and Spurs got two yesterday, although one was ruled out for offside(IIRC).

Also, I am worried about Azpi or Cole starting at LB for this one especially if Navas starts. A right footed player in Azpi dealing with another same footed player is not exactly ideal in such situations. Even Azpi had a bit of problem dealing with Valencia in that United game and as for Cole, well we know he isn't exactly the best in defending anymore right now.

why are people saying that we are out of the race if we'll lose this match? we would still only be 6 points behind them. thats not that much.

I would be happy with a draw. at home, city are beasts and they are better than us in nearly every departmend on the pitch (minus goalkeeper). so I would be happy with a draw away from home. we fucked this situation up by drawing to West Ham, hopefully this time Mou picks up a decent team (has to include Matic!!).

Still gutted we didn't get the 3 points yesterday. I think we will struggle arguably City perhaps we can stop them scoring but i don't get who the **** is going to score any for us

City have to lose 2 and because of superior goal difference- draw or lose another game while we need to win all the remaining games. Possible? yes. Probable? No.

A City team that destroy teams for fun is gonna lose 2-3 games for the remaining period of the season? Not a chance.

I'm sick of all the plastic Chelsea fans on this forum claiming that this is a loss. All of you wanks can piss off. We win 2-1, hazard with the brace.

[The_Flash 1,144]

I'd love us to win, I mean we did last time and I didn't expect, if Etoo could just play like he did against Utd instead of how he played last night, we'd have a chance.

We could ask if we can have an extra player on because our strikers are pish and there's are great.

Don't give the pikeys satisfaction by whining, just move on.

i don't know. other than Mata all other setpiece takers are piss poor. need to work on delivery as there are 3 good headers of the ball in the XI

Oscar and Lampard are both good at set pieces. Both are rightys though. Luiz?

Forgot about Lampard. He's pretty consistent with delivery

He's the only. I always get mad when i see Luiz get a shot, he ALWAYS hits the wall.

Consistent? Meh. All our current set piece takers are inconsistent and more often than not, their deliveries don't even get past the near post, always hitting the first man.

yeah. Willian, Oscar, Hazard. None of them are consistent but Frank is better

6 points with 14 games left is nothing, especially with City having some tough games. It makes it tougher, but even if we went and won on Monday then I wouldn't put us as favourites. Unfortunately it's games like last night's one (and home to West Brom) that tend to decide titles.

But 6 points off the top in February is certainly surmountable.

It really isnt!

It is not just about City losing points in future tough games, it more about us not being ready to go out there and have a good enough run until the end of the season.

Chelsea is still way too premature to revert a 2 game efficit in 14. In order to win the title, we must at least draw.

6 points is too much...

[Ainsley Harriott 2,732]

City is getting very overrated.

[ZOS 580]

[ZOS 580]

no striker, we need 11 on the field ffs, my team would be

Hazard Oscar Willian

DL Matic Ramirez

A. Cole JT GC Ivanovic

Peter
