    You’ll get Conte in a few years too.

    United seem to be a couple of years behind the curve these days!

    Thing is, he often looks more like a snooker player than a footballer, but the lad can't half pass a football.. mind you Sterling runs like my missus in a tight skirt' but he's looking the business too <laugh>

    The difference is that, like when he was at Real and Porto, Jose has been given license to play some attacking football. Not that he'll ever play like Guardiola, though you'll still twist my comment.

    You were insistent it wouldn't happen but then lots of Chelsea fans said Jose wouldn't play Rashford.

    There was this deluded misconception that the Chelsea way was the only way.

    Yes mate I've already stated that City were better but you seem to fall back on your Spurs mentality that possession and corners win games. Also it wasn't a poor Chelsea performance but a commanding display by City that pushed us deeper than we would have wanted to be. At 1-0 the game is never won and I thought the substitutions helped change our shape and we performed a little better in the last 15 minutes. But City were the deserved winners for sure and that was every bit of a title winning display you'll see this season.

    We all know much Stan hates Jose Fellaini and anti football at OT. He can’t convince us otherwise, let alone himself.

    We are lucky to have a coach we love. Forza Toni .... for a season or two more at least <laugh>

    He spent £170m to come third last season...he already had Aguero, Silva, Debruyna (excuse spelling) and Kompany on top of that.
    This season he is showing his genuis by spending a further £210m ... and then whined and bitched cos arsenal didn't sell him Sanchez.

    Not much more than Jose to be fair, and spending money does not always guarantee success.

    Roman and Chelsea have been one of the exceptions not necesarily a rule

    Ffs .. can you never stop being a petulant tart <laugh>
    I said that ALL the stats showed they were superior on the night.
    And it was a poor chelsea performance. Misplaced simple passes throughout are a sign of a poor performance.
    You actually said that apart from the excellent goal there was not a lot between the teams.
    Imho there was a gulf between the team yesterday.
