So, is what's happening what we thought would happen when, last season Chelsea had no CL encumbrances to hinder them? Many thought that they won the league because of a relatively free fixture list but now they have the CL with which to contend they're finding life different under Conte.
The one massive boon for me, should City win tonight, is that the BBC/Sky cartel is going to be apoplectic that United, having faced no real opposition yet in the league, will drop down to second.
That sound you can hear is the various pundits making sure their gag reflexes are suitably suppressed in preparation for lauding how Man City scored 1/3 as many goals against the Chavs that Burnley did.
Fawn fawn fawn Pathetic If they are so bloody good how did they not create more chances. They just beat a Chelsea side who had a day less to recover . The pundits are such a waste of space, they could get any number of blokes from the pub to make more interesting comments
Mind you it does leave us a point ahead in 3rd but we are too lightweight according to Lawro so we are not a threat.
Right now without Dembele and Wanjama we are perhaps a little lightweight but they should be back for our game with Bournemouth. If we are talking lightweight Lawro how's Liverpool defensively? Eh?
I'm still concerned about them and especially at Wembley which is why I want to thrash Bournemouth regardless of who's out to get a darned good winning momentum going. Today we were good in patches. An ENORMOUS gap between 23rd minute good goal and 90th minute flaffy crappy goal. BIG gap of NOTHING.
The good news for Conte is none of Terry, Lampard, Cole or Drogba are in the dressing room The bad news, on the other hand...
