Most people turned to congratulate Chelsea for the fascinating game, but indeed Manchester City has a few advantages over key decisions. The most apparent controversies were the soft penalty awarded again, and no foul for the handball. Sadly if the standard of refereeing is normal, Chelsea should deserve a win.

    I think Chelsea played quite well but a lot of what they created was off city mistakes , Sterling goal off a terrible composure from gvardiol

    And the Jackson goal was awful goalkeeping from ederson.

    For me peps gotta take a lot of blame here , you need to shut up shop and control the game but city never did

      For City to make mistakes Chelsea MUST play REALLY well… I just love this way of “seeing” the game. Same as Spurs just got “unlucky” to go down to 9 and not because they just simply couldn’t keep up after the first 15 minutes. Mate, we played so well yesterday that we forced City to start making mistakes and was much closer to winning the game that City was. That is all.

      Is it that much of a reach to say that Chelsea just played really well and made City play the game they wanted them to? This rhetoric that City only lose because they don’t play their best is just lazy.

      I share this same sentiment about those two goals. Silva’s was a corner kick, and Ruben had a mistimed tackle due to the rain, I suppose. It’s not like Chelsea carved City open. City also had the better chances. Sanchez had better saves

      Jackson’s goal was a result of the power behind connors shot. He had no time to react, he could only block it and hope his defenders go to the rebound first.
