This is similar to the FA Cup semi final between the two, Chelsea seem to have their number. City really needed to score the first goal, now they’re a goal down I wouldn’t be surprised if Chelsea go on to win it, probably even bag another on the counter.
Proper rock and a hard place match - hate City - despise Chelsea lets be honest it is just a cheque book battle, best result would be an abandoned match due to a mass brawl with 5 sent off from both sides.
Pep's ego could cost City Champions League...we can beat anybody with any eleven...why would you start with no Fernandinho holding? Madness has cost them so far... Somebody's getting burned at the stake...
It’s the only way to beat them in fairness, even if Chelsea themselves have spent fortunes. Pep ****ed it though with his selection. Tuchel annihilated him in the tactical and sub battle.
Safe to say that’s wrapped up one awful season for us though. We’ve been utter ****, **** players, no manager, chairman making umpteen mistakes and now Chelsea go and win the CL.
I know not a great watch though - on another note isn't Joe Cole annoying he is thick as **** and seems to be equally spammer and chelsea - yuk!!
If you listen carefully, you can hear Sky switching Narratives from "Harry Kane needs to join a Champions League winning team" to "Harry Kane is the final piece of the puzzle to help The Sheikh Mansour Team win the Champions League"
The first time hurt us so much more, lol. But this one’s still crap. I’d have been a bit “meh” about it if we weren’t so bloody awful ourselves but them winning just compounds our misery really.
Two medium sized and financially doped to the hilt clubs they may be, but their owners have ambition to win silverware at the expense of profit. The clubs that win the trophies 95% of the time, identify weaknesses in their squads and go out and get the players to fix it with little fuss, and the results are there for all to see. Unfortunately for Spurs, we are the complete opposite and have skinflint owners by comparison, we will have a long wait for some silverware under the current unambitious and incompetent regime.
To be blunt I had the feeling they were going to wind up winning it, especially after all the fairytale Narratives of Aguero winning the CL in his last game (unless you're Sky, who insist his last game was last weekend...) as if all they had to do was turn up
Two clubs where my values would not permit me to be a season ticket holder. Chelsea is a money laundering operation for a known criminal. Man City is effectively owned by a foreign state.
Rubbish. There is no way that any normal owner could compete with that. You can't complain about their "business model" (which of course is nothing like any sort of business we know of) and then want the same for our club. Those two clubs should not exist in their current form, and all the trophies they've 'acquired' since it happened have been bought and are tainted (regardless of what the pundits say). To compare any other owners to that is meaningless and unfair. Ambition is all very well but there's a financial ceiling- for most 'normal' clubs. You may want us to be like them but I don't. And you can't have it both ways. And how much have Citeh spent anyway and they still haven't won the CL.
