I get his history for Chelsea and obviously he's not gonna go mental but no one could begrudge him cracking a smile and fiving his teammates. After all he plays for us now, not them.
did anyone else notice in fat frank's post-match interviews that he seemed to refuse to say "city" or "manchester city"...kept referring to us as "this club". he didn't refer to Chelsea as "that club" or "my former club". maybe I'm being petty, but it rubbed me the wrong way, especially after his shitty sulk after scoring the goal.
Exactly mate. He didn't score a goal to relegate them, he scored to make it 1-1 in an early season game. NO decent Chelsea fan would have held it against him if he had smiled. At least look like you want to play for us Frank!
If they'd been giving him an ex-Arsenal player level of shit, then he should have celebrated. Considering the reception he got from their fans, I think he did the right thing and I'd be gutted if Kompany or Silva say came back, scored and then started making the most of it.
That said, I'd have preferred it if he'd run up to Maureen and told him what he thought of being thrown out just to watch him cry
