    Decent game but both teams toothless up front. Leicester could have buried them at the end if they had any composure.

    Chelsea decent first half but utterly clueless in 2nd half. #lampardout

    Good result today for the team that plays at home in blue shirts + shorts.

    We paid for a new ground...something city didn't but why compare paying over £700m on new players in 3 years with building a ground?
    Our ground cost somewhere between £750m and £850m.

    We get slaughtered for not throwing money around...Levy is mocked for being tight cos we pay what we can afford. We built a new ground to be able to afford more.
    We were a turgid team and slowly improved to being a top 5 or 6 team. We built on that over a few years to become a top 4 team.
    It was that patience and living within our means that meant we were able to to built the ground and hopefully will help us afford better players.

    City were turgid until the day they were bought. And that changed over night. And not content with that they have broken FFP rules and rules on signing under 18s.
    Chelsea used to challenge for the title and won trophies before they were bought.
    Arsenal did a similar thing to us and built a new ground.
    United inproved their ground and marketing and spent that to dominate.
    That's why I mentioned city...they have not earned or built anything...they have simply bought it all .

    To me that is spoiling football and is one of the reasons people will always remember Leicester winning the title.

    I know I am in a minority but it is a genuine belief.
    City have not stopped us winning anything so it is not bitterness.
    It kills football imho.

    Historically I blame spurs as much as anyone for money killing the game...we were the first club to become a PLC and were a key player in pushing for the Premier League...but City (for me) epitomise more than any other club what is wrong in football.

    Lost the stream for the last 5 plus stoppage, but sounds like we continued on top ... obviously need to start a lot better and not sure about playing Maddison on the left ... but in terms of the club's progression, that's 4 points from our last 2 visits to Stamford Bridge, so happy enough with that ... need to start converting the chances and some final pass options were pretty poor ... but a young team that will only get better <cheers>
