You can add him to your team of Chelsea rejects!

Chelsea anti football is the United way now!

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.

Disagree mate...City were were head and shoulders better in this match.
Chelsea 4 attempts (2 off and 2 on target)
City 17 attempts (6 on and 11 off)
Chelsea 38% possession
City 62% possession
City were attacking in the chelsea final third of the pitch for 30.3% of the match whereas Chelsea were in the City final third for 22.1%.
47% of chelsea touches of the ball on the pitch were in their own defensive area whereas over 53% of city touches of the ball were in midfield where they were dominant.
Imho the score line was a little flattering to Chelsea.
The over reaction to a poor Chelsea performance is a joke as is the over reaction to the most expensive team ever assembled in uk history having a good start to the season.

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.

City looking good. Don’t mind him succeeding.

Hate all that parochial, can Pep do it at a wet Stoke crap.

We are lucky to have Pep in England

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.
<doh>

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.
 
The two brothers from Diff'rent Strokes challenge for the ball.
