    I don't need to chase down the link, it was his post match interview on Sky 10 minutes after the game :biggrin:

    Yes, I guessed that, had a look on Sky and can't find it. Mainly because Mourinho never said it :biggrin:

    Haven't seen the other thread, so by your logic it didn't happen <ok>

    To be honest I feel I have become more of an armchair forum user, rather than a 'proper' user like the rest of you. I feel ashamed at my plasticness, and so have decided to start supporting Chelsea, as I'll fit in better there.

    Wait, Chelsea lost last night, didn't they? In which case, as a now die hard Chelsea fan, I vote we sack the manager.

    Appreciate the compliment Gerrez, but then you should know from my posts this isn't an anti-liverpool gripe. As I said in my response to Sisu, if that had been a high profile game between Arsenal and Chelsea, I really don't think we'd be hearing about it 5 days later...or talking about it either. Chelsea have gone away from home and not played particularly well, but ground out wins. You must have heard the media in previous seasons call this the "mark of champions". Chelsea, City and United have done this in the past. Don't get me wrong, I abhor that style of football, even when United have played that way. I'm a bit of a purist. But what annoys me is the hypocrisy, that in past seasons, whenever this topic was brought up the majority opinion in the media was that "managers play to their strengths" and "they don't owe anything to anyone but their own club", and a "win is a win". And this wasn't just the likes of Stoke I'm talking about, even when Mancini did it at City. The performance by City against Arsenal (both challenging for the title at the time) at the Emirates a few year ago was far worse than Chelsea's on Sunday but nobody mentioned it the next day, let alone 5 days later. The only reasons I can think it's happening now is a mix of anti-Mourinho hatred (probably deserved tbf) and the media is full of ex-liverpool players. I switch on the TV and it's Rednapp, Souness or Carragher going on about. Switch on the radio and it's Fowler and Micky Quinn. And it's hardly unbiased debate either, all one sided. Where were they when other clubs were doing it?

    Don't know where else to put this but after seeing the Europa League semi, Juve have been very poor tonight.

    Tough match for city this weekend.

    But ironically Everton needing 3 points may play into City's hands. They will need to attack and try to win rather than sit back if they had needed only 1 point. A draw and Everton have no chance of catching up with arsenal.

    City would prefer a more open game. Come on City <ok>

    The RS fans moaning that Everton are not fighting for them. They are so stupid that they do not realise that they have to earn their title and not expect others to win it for them. <ok>

    Embarrassing as **** that the liverpool fans expect everton to do them a favour. Liverpool would roll over if it was them. A Gerrard classic would gift the opposition a goal.

    Liverpool fans claim its for the city <laugh>
