I don't need to 'stop trying so hard' to do anything. The tweet is in relation to a scene from the Fyre Festival documentary. Just a joke. Nothing to do with Chelsea but thanks for the concern.

eastynh Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 City making life difficult for themselves again. No excuses for last night, it was an abject performance and I did not see that coming. Was the strongest first 11 we have as well. Fair play to Newcastle, their tactics worked perfectly last night. Arsenal, Everton and Chelsea up next as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dyou reckon it's them playing worse or other teams figuring out how to get results against them? I'd still back them to win all those games.

We have just scored 30 goals mate in 25 days and not conceded in 10 hours. Also beat Liverpool in that run. We were in fine form. Can't have any excuses at all for last night. Rafa sets his teams out exactly the same, in every game Newcastle play against us. They just camp out on the edge of their box, try and stick in the game and condense the match into a 10 minute free for all at the end. Fair play to Newcastle last night. They defended fantasticly well, we just could not break them down. Newcastle hung in there and took their chances. The worry I have is that Newcastle, Palace and Leicester have all come back from a goal down to beat us. We should have been out of sight in all 3 games. Same against United at home. I think if City are on their game and clinical, then they beat every team. There is only the Chelsea away and Lyon away match where City have not been the better team in any match this season. Yet teams know if they get a bit of luck, can just hang in there, then opportunities will pop up against City. It comes down to whether they have enough quality to put it away. As I said, no excuses for last night, that was a full strength team. Should the team prioritise now? The league is looking unlikely. Can't see Liverpool dropping too many points this season. City are still in 3 cup competitions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle were 16/1 last night. Arsenal I would agree with, we should be beating them with all their injuries. Chelsea can beat any team in this league on their day and Everton have been known to fuck us over quite concincingly, from time to time.

lost Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) Everton were dogshit last night but luckily Huddersfield seem to be the same quality as Millwall without the set piece threat. Looked to maybe onto something earlier in the season. Really not sure if the downturn coincides with Gueyes head being turned by PSG but I wouldn’t expect half the performance against Liverpool or City that was put in before Christmas. I’m trying to work out how we are 8th and highest scorers outside the top 6 with nothing up front. Edited January 30, 2019 by lost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep As i said a few months ago Liverpool have won the league because they've only got Chelsea and Spurs left both at home. The league is shite. Depending on how work permits work after brexit it could of peaked a few years ago and the decline may now accelerate. Usmanov looking at AC Milan apparently over another premiership club now.

Wolves to West Ham (7th - 12th) all have an ability to take unexpected points on any given day - today being a prime example. They do also all have the ability to not show up in the slightest. The job Eddie Howe has done at Bournemouth is unbelievable - I realise it isn't a subject that is missed by most people, but it truly is a remarkable thing.
