milner break dance? hahaha

some respectability in the scoreline i guess.aguero missed a sitter.hehe.

as for me quite hard to choose lol, terry also lotsa silly mistake
everyone passing like really crap one

chelsea not attacking much...still clueless in final quarter

Not bad! We would have won if Ivanovic weren't sent off! Torres is defo highlight of the day!

wat we need was a right back .. or backup RB .. Ramires cant handle the job ..

Ktbffh !

Not the best game. I think Hazard still need some time to gel with the rest, too bad Marin didn't feature today.

If we didn't lose a RB, we will have a better chance, next week against Wigan...and Iva probably will miss the next 2-3 matches...still we need a RB.

i think 3-2 is a fair result. iva tackle IMHO worthy of a red card. two footed and one of the leg is even above the ground.

if the result is much worse than 3-1, that is something that we need to worry about. at 3-2, the lads show great character to try and overturn the game.

torres did great. keep on running and presurrizing oppenents. terry and mikel could have done better.

looking forward for the new season. ktbfflh!

omg hazard what happened to you? tot u gonna take charge and play more important role in 2nd half but clearly your lost your way....

agreed with most of you lot. passing quite suck. city passing much much better. keep passing to opponent, lampard and mikel..hopefully can improve for the better after this. torres showing quite a promise but with lack of supply there's nothing much he can do.

out of all the position, our RB got red card. Damn
Sam Hutchinson anyone? or Paolo? or put Betrand on the right?

I'll go Sam Hutchinson of course, but its up to RDM whether want to take that risk or not.

its okay, 3-2 its quite okay when we facing city,
and i thought we are going to be eaten by 5 to 6 goals

KTBFFH!

if ivanovic not red carded then the result could be different, any thought ?

ya it wasnt that bad after ivanovic was sent out , still had some spirit to fight back .

Mikel today really = =

Hazard quiet only ... hmmm

Torres seems dependable , huhu waiting for him to shine this season , back to the old best.

KTBFFH!

another potential star rising... R. Bertrand may be our own version of Bale!

hope we can win more games

you kidding me? lol!

Good spirit show by our players, guess IVA gonna miss 3 matches, too bad his tackle was just a second late, no complain on the red. TERRY unlucky with his stretch clearance but is still a great strike from YAYA. Maybe RDM did not remember ESSIEN actually play a makeshift RB before, should have sub him in because we concede 2 other goal coming from the right side, no people is helping RAMIRES there.

TORRES looks full of confidence today and have a good game, but the real test is yet to come, against team that play to win like MANC there is space for him to move, we have to see how he gonna fare against bottom team that play for a draw with parking the bus.

that is why we need a RB...now that Iva will miss the first 3 EPL game..who's gonna cover for him? Paulo? Ramires definitely cant do it

Mata looks quite anonymous in this game...so as Hazard.

Torres did very well.

We deserved to lose this game imo.

Looking forward for next week 1st PL game

yeah. to me 3-2 is still a respectable result.

im particularly disappointed with terry.

if you guys notice, when torres got the ball, there are no wingers to support him. i'd like hazard to stay up front to be ready to support torres because he cant hold the ball like drogba, and cole to be really defensive to cover for hazard.

wingers is still what we lack of at the moment. i'm not sure that hazard is a natural winger. thats why hes had a quiet game i suppose?

and mikel is not that good as holding midfielder. thats about it. our weakness at the moment from my pov.
