Other Football - 2018/19 Season

[Dr Nowt]

We’re not clawing back the goal difference so they might as well win this 10-0 just to break these skidmarks as a club.

After we've played them.

That game isn’t until April.

 

Sarri sleeps with the fishes tonight.

I think Laporte and Stones are a pretty shit hot partnership, to be fair. Ideal for the possession based, playing out from the back style that Guardiola plays. Plus, they can both defend. 

They're good players no doubt but they don't strike me as real warriors. That's what you need in a tough title run-in. I remember Lucio almost single-handedly dragging Inter to their last CL win, and Cannavaro in Italy's world cup win. Players like that are the difference-makers.

 

I'm hoping Virgil could end up making that difference for us.

[House of Dirk]

Chelsea quite clearly throwing a match here. 

[Ronnie Whelan]

Aguero is such a player. Still watching purely to see if he could pick up a 3 month knock.

Yeah, this doesn't say much about City's quality. We already know they're great, but they aren't "beat Chelsea 5-0 in regular circumstances great". This is a total downing of tools. 

[Strontium]

If you can forget the fact that this is hugely damaging to our title challenge, it's really quite funny.

[aRdja]

Jorginho is such a nothing player.

They are basically doing the bitters job.

Yeah. The big worry is it could come down to goal difference. Anyhow, it's still in our hands.

If we can beat United, i'd really fancy us.

How many hat tricks did Rush score?

These cunts also play before us every single 'game week' in March.

 

Them 2nd March - Us 3rd March

 

Them 9th - Us 10th

 

Them 16th - Us 17th

 

Them 30th - Us 31st

 

So we have to chase them from now until the end of March - always being a game behind.

 

 

 

When we beat the mancs away on the 24th we will be at least 3 points ahead going into every one of those weekends.

Loads

[A_S]

Chelsea had an edge on GD over both the mancs and Arsenal, which could be crucial given their close points tallies. 

 

That's now been obliterated.  

[SasaS]

Did City fans spend most of this game singing about us?

[TheHowieLama]

Imagine being Higuain jogging around the center circle here thinking "What the hell has happened?"

The blues aren't even able to win at being shit.

[Bjornebye]

I hope City get another 5. 

[corro]

I bet they turn up next Sunday. I like Sarri but cannot stand Chelsea. Hope he fucks off and does well elsewhere.

They put on a far better show than the Chavs

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Oh, they're singing about us again. And us losing in a European Cup final. When they've won ZERO of them. Thick fuckers. 

 

A few Scouse songs too. Just before they artificially create an atmosphere by pumping Hey Jude through the speakers...

Think he went home about an hour ago, mate.

If there’s another 5 goals, I’d much prefer Chelsea to get them all

[Colt Seavers]

In my mind we are still top.

If Everton were allowed to play all 38 games before everyone else they'd be top.

I'd rather be behind on goal difference with a game on hand than the other way around even if that game is at the toilet.
