We rest Haaland for big games.

Serious question when does he ever turn up in them ?

Not even close mate - 100% shoulder to shoulder and
everyone is gong to bounce off Khus

If pep stays the second half with marmoush then he can go do one !

No idea what Pep logic was starting him and Haaland.

Not even sure he knew what he was supposed to be doing.

I think we let Chelsea off the Hook with this team selection.

All this resting is a load of shit, over resting cost us the Everton game two weeks nearly without a game after playing well before that, players lost their rhythm cost us a lot

If Marmoush comes out for the second half I’m going home. He has done the sweet sum of absolutely fuck all. Get Cherki on otherwise we’re in trouble. A dull game so far and we’re giving Chelsea all the confidence they’re developing. Sort it out Pep. Come on City !!

Yes, but the same tactics it will make no difference, side to side passing wide open for a long through ball, no threatening balls forward, shit tactics

An excellent question. Only one answer so far isn't there.
Had the best chance in a shit first half. Marmoush had a great chance but only has 1 foot, same for Semenyo. What do they do in training?

Chelsea are shite we have been marginally better but not much.

Need a bigger second half, to the surprise of no one marmoush isnt working.

Lets not beat around the bush and get it done at half time.

Longer this goes on the better it is for chelsea
derby day the scores were level,
then the goat was fed by neville,
silly boy should know for sure,
feed the goat and he will score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At the end of the day we have hardly threatened against a bang average team with an interim manager. I was Fucking looking forward to this game thinking we cannot be shit at Wembley again how wrong was I . Cherki should have started he can operate in confined areas, another fuck up

Disappointing first half, but if we don't beat this Chelsea team there are serious problems
