Manager, captain and 3 regular starting squad players out. Still played, no dramas.

Surely that should be a red ? Lukaku was through ?
Sign of decent side to chip away and win ugly at places like Villa when you aren't in full flow. Won't win the PL as still too many frailties but not sure it is a crisis

I don't agree with it whoever does it, and I'd prefer we took the moral high ground and didn't do it, but if the referees are not going to deal with it then I can see why we do it.
At least Atkinson doesn't pretend to deal with it by tapping his watch & doing bugger all.

its like Mount is literally unbookable to refs like Atkinson, 2 cynical fouls (one not even given as a foul) and 2 corners that took forever, didnt even cross Atkinsons mind that he should be booking him lol. Maybe he thinks hes England captain already

Only because the request was rejected
3/4 players isn't enough
Manager doesn't count
25 man squad, 13 players plus keeper is the agreement, what grounds would it be on? Was a pretty strong team out

good team talk Tashy
yeah but it don’t answer the question, have Chelsea just had a blip or is it a bit deeper

played the last half a dozen games+ with nothing up top is a lot of it, if they get Lukaku fit and firing then theyre a very very different prospect

The reason I asked is I could not honestly see anyone keeping pace with them early season then all of a sudden the door opens for City and Liverpool.

No Lukaku for about 8 games, Kovacic missing most of the season, Kante injured, Havertz & Werner been injured and a some of the breaks that have gone against have been ridiculous. But apparently it's something deep & the manager is doing a Mourinho...
edit; add Chilwell to the list.

It was odd when you mentioned the loss of LuKanu. We have not had a recognised striker as such all season. Liam Delap would of had some game time but is injured. Hopefully a stinking season is back on for City, Liverpool and Chelsea. Ave a feeling Mr COVID is doing his best to make it a bumpy road.

lol Tashy, big big difference is you dont set up to have one, Chelseas plans are integral to having one, they spent £100m on getting one, you spent £100m on a 19th midfielder

was reading a piece the other day which opened my eyes on the Manc evening news. With the sale of Torres to Barca and the selling of some of the academy players who are out on loan in europe. City could pay for Haaland for a net spend of nowt

Right now City appear to be avoiding the issues of all the other clubs - I guess spending £100mil on someone who doesn’t start each week helps but they don’t appear to have lost anyone through Covid or injuries and playing teams who are putting out restricted teams - it’s certainly falling into their hands at the moment
Even if they did get players taken down by Covid I doubt it would have the same affect as others due to the unprecedented level of their squad. If City don’t win the title it would be a monumental failure

yeah not sure its actually a net spend of "nowt", might be for one window for the tfr fee but lets not just write off the billion that went before
oh and lets also not ignore the backhanders father and agent want or the 25m+ a year wages. Assume were ignoring the £20m you paid to Torres and his wages too
