Stats 7,142 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Outstanding performance. Especially in attack. Nice to get a point which finally feels like a win. Palmer, Sterling very good. Gallagher too but as a whole the team cohesion attacking was brilliant to watch. Was impressed with how Cucurella held himself after picking that yellow. I understand why Palmer got MOTM but Sterling should have got it. He was definitely the best player on the pitch. All game he was sensational. He has nothing to prove to that idiot Southgate.

Games like these or vs Arsenal, Tottenham are what makes ppl tune in to watch PL. the other half of the teams just park the bus against big teams. Even if they are successful like Brentford, forest etc usually vs us it will be a turgid game, atmosphere in the stadium goes to shit and ppl stop tuning in. Just reduce to 12 teams and have playoffs. No, no, no, no, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was stupid. But I am in favour of this: Reduce the teams to 16 or 17 in England, rest of Europe and make cl-europa leagues into a mini league. Stage of 16 should be a mini league.

Blue Armour 4,439 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Also, probably reading into it too much, but it looked like Kovacic quietly celebrated Palmers penalty goal, if you look at the highlights.😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lluubbeenn 173 Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 I can see a bit of Rudi in Disasi. Missing the same pace, but certainly not missing the character. Always ready for a tackle. He needs to clean up his game a bit, but has the potential to be the monster in the middle of this defence. This week has been the best since our cl win. Loved everything about both games. Could have won yesterday, but played out a crazy classic. To open up city soo many times and make them look like your average top half team has been inspirational. I feel emotionally invested in this team and truly believe we have the opportunity to be top of the world! Fernando and Johnnyeye 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vincent 403 Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 How on earth is that a penalty between Haaland and Cucurella. Referee decided it's a penalty and in those cases the VAR don't overrule the referee, really disappointing. Also the chance of Gusto, such poor finishing. bigbluewillie and Fulham Broadway 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,141 Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 It felt different yesterday, something felt like it has clicked both between the team and the crowd, I can't quite put my finger on it. Cole Palmer was fucking excellent again, he just glides around the pitch finding little pockets of space and causing havoc. City will be kicking themselves for letting him go, he is what we thought we were getting we bought that clown Havertz Johnnyeye, Norfolkblue1961, bigbluewillie and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 6,585 Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 After this game I think there's some stuff we can do to improve. Silva although he scored he was also at fault for one goal. I think this is his last season, wonder who will take his place? Even though Jackson score I'm still unsure, I would definitely want another ST. GK if we can get a top one that is good at passing go for it, so far right now I don't know who. Interesting to see what we would do with Lavia once fit and where he would go.

We all watched tons of horrible games in the last 2 and a half years, many painful and annoying defeats, many months we produced relegation-side statistics, goal droughts and soulless displays. Last week, we managed to score 8 goals against the league leaders got 4 points. Personally, I haven’t enjoyed two Chelsea games in a row so much for years..

It was right call from the ref, no one else to blame than Cucurella. He did grab Haaland and pull him, very obviously. It was very light and the ball wasn’t good, so it was compeletly unnecesarry call from Cucu, but both penalty and yellow card was perfectly good calls from Taylor.
