10/10 tbf.

Plus, he's everyone's mate.

Some still haven't realised Hart is an average keeper, so hopefully they'll keep eulogising over Kompany while he keeps stinking it up on the pitch.

They need more playa!

Hmm

If it weren't for some appalling decisions I think a draw would have been the fair result.

They really went on top when we just gave up with our tired legs.

I don't disagree that they are a tremendous team but that game was one of the poorest refereeing that I've ever seen.

We didn't get penalties, had goals disallowed due to offside, had goals allowed against us due to offside.

I'm sure we didn't play to our best but City had so many decisions go against their game.

I don't think they can stop this City team if Aguero is playing, regardless of their record. It depends on the situation IMO, if City are top and don't need to win we might get a draw.

Abu Dhabi FC should be ashamed at themselves. All that money to be this shit! :haha:

Their may have been some decisions that went against us, but they still beat us by 3 goals, I'm not sure you can claim a draw when the difference is 3 goals.

One thing with Mourinho's teams is you just can't afford to concede the first goal. They are masters at killing the game and preserving what they have.

If Chelsea win this, I think they'll be favourites for the title.

Out of the top teams, they only have to play Liverpool away, every other game is at home for them.
