I’d take a 1-0 win to City, which would see both teams below us in the table having played a game more…or a draw.
A heated game full of cards, but no serious injuries (but I don’t mind them getting a couple of weeks off), resulting in a draw that is some how humiliating for both parties (maybe because of 10 vs 11 etc.). But I say this only because Chelsea is looking dangerous, normally I would want City to lose as I see them as chief competitor.
Is there any reason why this United game is randomly on at the same time as Chelsea/City?
This apparently:
A club statement read: “Our home match against Aston Villa on 25 September has been brought forward to a 12.30 BST kick-off , following a request from Trafford Council Safety Advisory Group to move the game due to The Courteeners concert at Lancashire Cricket Club, Emirates Old Trafford, on the same day
Still don’t understand, would have thought they’d have as many fans as City.
They are both on Sky in Germany but who wants to watch that crap anyway.
Chelsea favourites.
KDB could be a difference maker. City have missed him. Pep moaning about the lack of a goal scorer. Why couldn’t they pay up for Harry?
Werner starts so kind of equal now
City with all the possession so far.
12 minutes gone, no red cards yet. What a waste.
Tuchel channeling his inner Mourinho.
You can see city getting caught on the counter today.
Guess that’s why Werner is in the lineup. You can see that already. Speed on the counter, looking to cross to Lukaku.
Rudiger doing Harry Kane there
Chelsea just being patient until Cheaters run out zest
City scoring first would make Chelsea come out and try something atleast, rather than having a huge bus in front of their goal.
Yup. What we have here is a world class defence versus a merely very good defence. The world class defence just invites the attack onto them until they run out of steam and then the merely quite good attack pops in a goal. Game over.
Trampoline shins Lukaku again :0)
Villa have had at 4 good goal scoring chances up to now and haven’t taken any of them against the scum :0(
If city can’t score against Chelsea who the fuck can, definitely favourites for title.
