Yup agree. Definitely think Wenger set us up to play the same way against Chelsea earlier this season. Difference was that Chelsea weren't as poor as City were yesterday and we were undone by a bit of magic by Hazard and a moment of poor defending for the first goal which is crucial in these games. Chelsea struggled to create much and Mourinho wasn't his usual cocky self. Think he even admitted that we were the hardest team he played against.

If you remember there was a great opportunity for us to equalise very quickly after when Sanchez played Jack through but a very poor touch from him killed the goal ...... had we equalised things could have been different. Fucking Jack missing sitters in big games ......... still haven't forgiven him for the one against United.
