Thank God we have JM

GK mistake, nice shot by Kante won it.

Yea. The art of the hack. What a bunch of useless hooligans.

He says that we are currently "brainwashed" into believing that the Premier League is the best competition in the world, and that we are now a long way off dominating the Champions League again.

I think Spain’s by far the best league.

Nice set up Arsenal got City. Opportunity for Xhelsea to avenge the beat up by Spurs. Oya Arsenal let us see you flex your muscle against City.

Rojo looks like he's going to get a ban for stamping on Hazard

Hard enough playing Chelsea with 11 men, we really defended well to keep the score line down, Rojo is becoming a heck of a defender, Chelsea could not go past Valencia or Young, that channel was blocked, I think young should play more often, he gives more than 150%
So angry Nigeria got kicked out of the world cup once again, i nearly told my wife that i caught my girlfriend with another man today!

Best draw for Beloved. Worst team left in it. It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming, the FA Cup's coming home!

Chelsea are a very good team
Indeed but teams need to explore their weaknesses. Their CB's are suspect. Kante is the glue holding that team together.

JM should have subbed Pogba immediately they went down to 10men.
Easier said than done. The manager makes sure exposure of the CBs is minimal and then the Kante effect is real. He made Huth and Morgan look world class and Chelsea's pair are light years better than those two.

I agree with coach, this is probably Arsenal's best chance. It's the organized teams who have a plan that worry Arsenal the most. City will at least let the Gunners play. The only question is "do the Gunners have the testicular fortitude to actually punch back or will they sit and take a dozen slaps as they've done against bayern, chelsea, city, liverpool, United (they threw one punch back and the glass jawed Mourinho boys fell).

Has anyone seen Paul Pogba :woot:

Nor be only testicles..i hope the phallus is there too...City will beat them like the bata drums of Olubadan.
