    As a neutral who wanted both teams to lose, I think Spurs were comfortably the better team. Only a Chelsea fan could think that they were somehow in control of a game that needed Spurs to miss a load of chances and a left back to score two goals!

    The way Eriksen puts those free kicks in is deadly. Morata was a hair's breadth away from conceding in the first half.

    If Batshuayi hadn't gone for it, Alderweireld was right behind him...

    It doesn't matter, there's often contact as you make a tackle. MS wins that ball fairly imo no super slo mo reverse angle will make me feel otherwise. Aguero acts like a little bitch as did many of the City players who threw themselves about last night.

    or how about batters clears it. If Morata could header we'd be even further ahead.

    Not denying they were better. That controlled the game.

    That's the part i'm denying. Every game we play it follows that they control the game as we can't play it out brilliantly. They never create many clear cut chances though and it was the same again this game. They get into good positions but nothing ever gets created!

    go look at the last 5 seconds if you have a sky account.

    Aguero does act like a little bitch. Still doesnt deny that Schneiderlin dived right in, went through aguero and rightly deserved his red card.

    Just because Milner gets away with his every week doesn't mean that its not a yellow card tackle if you mess it up

    I'm going with Spaniard being right and Sky being biased as they love to suck the virtual Man City cock.

    De Bruyne out for the next game, he injured his arm pointing at where his team mates should be every 5 minutes during the game last night.

    I thought it was a good tackle. He won the ball cleanly.

    What absolute bollocks. He didn't go through him at all, he won the ball cleanly and barely touched the cry arsing little snide on the follow through. He leapt in the air like he's been clattered and got Schneirderlin sent off. If you think that's worthy of a 2nd yellow card, then the Sky generation football fan is beyond all hope.

    Lukaku has 4 in 3.

    Rooney has 2 in 5.

    You have learning difficulties.

    You can rant and rave Tobes but i'll stick it the two professional and neutral pundits who called it a red as well as use my own eyes. Just because Schneiderlin gives an oscar performance doesn't make it a clean tackle

    He took his dangling foot because aguero got their first :p.

    I suppose DCL is also a little snide throwing himself to the floor and holding his face when walker walked into him?

    Your ears need syringing as well, as all the pundits didn't call it a red.

    Aguero was nowhere near the ball, Morgan took the ball cleanly and the 2 players contacted, football isn't a non contact sport lol

    Aguero had chucked himself down about 3 times looking for penalties before he got him sent off btw

    DCL got Walker sent off, when did I deny it?

    I didn't say you denied DCLs actions. I'm just saying is he a little snide :p. Although Aguero is a cheating git he has form for throwing 2 footed challenges (multiple times) at david luiz.

    The contact comes before schneiderlin gets the ball. I'd have no issue in Schneiderlins follow through if he gets the ball first. If he isn't in the position to win the ball first then he shouldn't be making that challenge. He's unfortunate as it looks like he's going to win it cleanly but Agueros foot shields the ball first.

    You are correct Carragher doesn't agree but Nev reckons he would go even with VAR. If you watch the video and the time i posted it's clear he catches agueros foot first.

    Not heard that phrase before going to have to steal it <laugh>

    Do you need new bins? You've just posted the video lol. He clearly wins the ball before touching Aguero.
