Maybe it's just me I don't get etto he contributes very very little

Lukker-

Shots on target 1-4 in favour of Chelsea.

The better chances so far.

Nope.

Chelsea are going to keep going. Why not sure? On top at the minute.

Johner

City defence is awful, they are there for the taking.

I think the bus driver is just about to park her up for the night.

Morzadec

Demichelis booked. Danger here as Hamilton would say. Pelligrini needs to change something at half time, they are being badly exposed and Demichelis could be in trouble as he is being asked to make a lot of tackles

*Obligatory mention of buses cos it's soooo funny*

I haven't heard this in the last 5 minutes. Please go on.

The alternatives are Ba and Torres, that should answer your question

No cover though. The midfield is just strolling back.

Torres is injured.

is the stadium empty? so quiet.

As much as I hate to say it, Chelsea have been excellent so far.

Midfield getting pressed very well by Chelsea. City not coping with it at the minute.

Chelsea should be out of sight.

United's season is over. Might as well just enjor the football knowing it really makes no difference to us

IvySlayer

Chelsea could be 3-0 up by now

Johner

Joke, should be 2.

Unlucky

The_Kew_Tour

City are being torn apart

That_Guy

Jesus. City are shocking at the back. Too easy for Chelsea up their end.

the_monkey

SHOULD BE 2 ...

scudzilla

Willian's delivery tonight has been dire

Hangballlouie

how are Chelsea 8/11? bossing this game imo

Gbear

City looking fairly ****e by their standards.

Still wouldn't bet against them.

bad2dabone

jaysus I can't believe it but i'm urging chelsea on here!!

City don't look all that at the moment.

DazMarz

Willian strolling towards Hazard's pass. Should have been bursting a gut to get to it and poke in the 2nd. sake...

So unlucky from Eto'o not to make it 0-2. Did everything right...

urabell

Another Serbian booking? Is Mike Dean Croatian?

Too Tough To Die

City fans gone home? It's gone very quiet.

tayto lover

Is that Vincent Kompany or Phil Babb?

Johner

Annoyed to be only 1 up tbh.

Rayne Wooney

Willian reminds me of Hulk, good with the ball, powerful shot, but a shít end product

kingshankly

Willian must be picked for his work rate

DazMarz

One worrying thing... I don't think Chelsea could keep this pace up for the second half. Chelsea could really rue not being 0-2 up at this stage.

Chelsea could wilt a bit in the last 15 minutes; and the last 15 minutes is when Man City have scored the majority of their dozens of goals this season...

That said, it's half-time, it's 0-1 and it's all good. so far.

City fullbacks getting badly caught up high up the pitch and not sure if Demichelis has the engine to cover for them. Potentially suicidal tactics from Pelligrini if he doesn't address this in some way. Might it be worth sacrificing Yaya's forward presence to provide some cover at the back, or should he reign in the fullbacks?

First goal will probably be crucial here, and Chelsea have a great chance to take advantage of some of City's injuries and resulting frailties here

If I can see it, surely Pelligrini can!

The setup needs to be tweaked, as City are looking really vulnerable.

Credit where it's due - Chelsea have set themselves up perfectly and exposed City's weaknesses.

Not a big fan of the chap, but hats off to Mourinho who has approached this one perfectly.

Lukker-

A victory for football so far. City's park the bus tactics are not working.

Paully D

City obviously very nervous about facing Sunderland in the League Cup final.....

Have to factor in too that City will be tired. Won't be used to chasing a game like this.

GavRedKing

Being only 1-0 after 2 excellent chances will eventually cost us.

Ill take it though.
