Sagna. We're screwed.

Could just as easily say the same about Zaba. He was terrible in the last game & got turned inside out by Hazard this time last year. Not an easy decision to make.

I'm just hoping instructions are sagna to kick hazard till he's booked then swop for zabba and repeat.

Correct. Zaba is fantastic, but he's going through a rough patch and to be fair to Sagna he's waited patiently for a big chance and he's got one today. Hopefully he shows Pellers he wasn't wrong.

Milner will surely play on the left with Navas playing. We need quick breaks and players in the box for Navas to aim at. Match made for Bony. Sigh.

[Ted Hughes]

Playing Navas without Dzeko really is pointless. Have we not learnt yet?

Can double up on Hazard though.

[Bluemoon16]

Pellers looks like he hasn't slept all night

[Bluedj]

I remember Sagna play well away at Bayern

[Mase]

Pellers looks like he hasn't slept all night

No change from usual then. Melted face!!

[blues2win]

Don't understand the stick Sagna gets. He's played pretty decently since he arrived. Sorry to say it but Zaba's looked very vulnerable recently. If the aim is to stop a Hazard today then Sagna and Navas look a fair bet. If he swaps flanks Clichy and Milner should do a job. I just hope we don't drop deep leaving Aguero isolated.

Look at this guy

[Dameerto]

Lampard, how dare you move to another club in the Prem when Chelsea allowed your contract to run out? Lampard how dare you disagree with Maureen when he clearly thought you have nothing to offer to football any more?

[blues2win]

He's a knob but fair play to Chelsea fans the majority are cheering 'Super Frank' as he leaves after the warm up.

[Dameerto]

Someone should feed that fucling sign to him piece by piece.

"A record 26 broadcasters at Stamford Bridge for Chelsea v Manchester City. Estimated global audience: 650m."

[Dameerto]

I just got butterflies with that tunnel shot, didn't think I'd be nervous for this game.

[Pretty Boy Lee]

If we can't beat this lot without costa and fabregas after the soft efforts we've put out lately we don't deserve the league. They need to be up for this today. Cmon lads!!!!!!

[ruralblue]

Get some studs in Sagnas boots, been on his arse twice now.

COME ON CITY!

[Dameerto]

kin hell we cut them wide open then.

[phips]

great cross from Navas. unsurprisingly, no one was on the end to attack it.

[Ted Hughes]

Rags would have scored from that cross Navas just put in. Our only problems have come from our own play.

[dick dastardley]

Good start need to capitalise on possesion
