Fernando 6,743 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 "Mr Pelligrino" gave his players clear instructions to prevent Chelsea from counterattacking by any means including chasing our players by hands, if this game was refereed by any other referee there would be two more red cards at least for repeating this more and more on our players...Willian has been fouled 7 times !!!even Silva has made this kind of fouls against us..So he pretty much knew how we was going to play. The best is always to surprise your opponent like we did against Arsenal in the 6 -0 game. Next game we play against them Mourinho needs to surprise them.

Popular Post! Barbara 15,149 Posted September 23, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted September 23, 2014 Only now I watched Pelegrino's interview to Sky. What a bitter loser he is. He has a big complex towards José.He kept saying 'everyone is going to play like that to us and it'll make it difficult for us to defend the title'. He's already making up all kind of excuses for not winning the title. I don't think teams changed how they play against City at all, if anything this year they're trying to capitalize more because clearly his team in the pitch hasn't reached the heights of the team from last season, despite the few changes and the addition of Mangala (was really impressed with him tbh).Another piece of bullshit he said more than once was that what matters for him is to play football, because the fans want to see a team that plays football and what the sport is about. Okay, piece of crap, go play your shitty football and finish the season without a (relevant) title to see what the fans will tell you. He's so bitter, jealous and intended to play mind games with Mou that is not even funny! Loser.

Clearly the fact he's never found a way to beat Jose in the league is killing him. Moron... we have a 5pt lead there was absolutely no need to play open-expansive football against them and he knows it.

Said we played like a 'small team', like Stoke but yet they only managed to take 1 point from two matches against us and Stoke and this despite having a frontline that cost a fortune! What's more, he likened us to Stoke and yet he instructed City to play like Stoke with all the rough and physical challenges. Pathetic. Alan Pardew was probably right to abuse him last season.. sLOVEnian Blue, Barbara, Chelsea Legend 11 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xPetrCechx 13,598 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Klopp is also struggling. Lost against Leverkusen and now again against Mainz. Already lagging behind Bayern. He also fked up some tactical things in the matches. So there's never a guarantee for a win. Atletico also lost to Piräus and drew Almeria.

Bender-JojicAubameyang-Kagawa-Großkreutz RamosA side that should beat teams like Mainz comfortably and shouldn't lose to Leverkusen 0-2. And they still have the likes of Immobile on their bench.

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I understand that we couldnt control city match if we couldnt even control everton one...we still lack something in midifield, whatever that might be. Its not that they are that better, our players just let them control midfield. And with such approach we will struggle against top physical sides. We might get one or even three points but its always very tight. City away one point is not bad at all, but arsenal, spurs, united and liverpool are different story. Cant wait to see what kind of approach we take for united away game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree they shouldn't have lost, but let's not act like they had a full strength team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cholo 428 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Grosskreutz is a RB, and Ginter Durm are real young Lol! Großkreutz is a very versatile player who can play both positions. He often played RM in the title season. Durm has also proved his quality, e.g. against Real Madrid. Ginter is one of the biggest defender talents in Germany. And it's not like they were playing against a top side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAB 1,030 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 It's pathetic that he criticized our tactics, especially since he did the same + didn't even get a single point in Munich. It must hurt so badly when you can't be Jose sometimes.Oh, and yeah the Lampard move was a good one, but brace yourself old lady for the rematch. darrus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 How? It reflects our playing style and why we lead the league in goals scored.That 'Chances created' stat includes things like player A passing to player B and player B taking a shot from distance. That's not really chance created, is it? A better reflection of our playing style would be finding the stat on clear cut chances created.And you expect one to believe QPR or even Newcastle, who have been hopeless this season, have actually created 50/49 chances from open play already?!
