That felt like winning a cup final - great night! That'll slap some City fans down as they've been mighty cocky this season. They still might win the title but hey we've punched their nose twice this season.
Chelsea were very comfortable and should have won by more. City looked like spoilt brats who suddenly were not getting it all their own way, whining at every challenge and squabbling among themselves.
I saw this article yesterday and decided that I wanted Chelsea to win. Man City played like the sort of blokes who have their cars pre-heated and delivered, 10 yards, to them.

Bugg3r! I had a feeling we had a defeat coming. It's not so much the loss, but having to watch Jose simpering like a recently deflowered maiden with his press chums that chafes. I feel a period of 'typical City' coming on.

They aren't Welsh! It's Celery!
But now they've gone all posh, it will soon be organic fair trade asparagus, darling.

I don't think that even the most hardened Blue Mooner would say that a couple of key players out last night affected things that much.
Would be absurd when you look at the strength of MCFC's squad - easily the strongest in the Prem' - I thought that's what big strong squads were all about; plugging the gaps etc.
Personally I'd say that if we'd had a top class striker on the pitch then City would've taken a total pounding.
Two City fans have called me today (they were at they match) and basically they said hats off to Chelsea - they just took City apart. Nice to be gracious in defeat.
Who knows table may well be turned shortly in the FA Cup but 6 points of the best team in the Prem' at the moment augers well for next season if we can sort our striker situation out.
Cirty vs Barca' looks more interesting now - I think some of the light blue supporters were expecting a rout but confidence appears diminished at the mo'!

For me, the best player in England is Vincent Kompany. If Liverpool had him, we'd be champions. I recall going to City and they tore Liverpool a new excrement vent. Two weeks later, we went back to City in the League cup and Kompany was out through suspension. The tables were turned and Liverpool took revenge. The glaring difference was the absence of Kompany. A Bob Paisley would have broken the bank for that man if circumstances allowed.

100 mile bike ride and a second win on the bounce for Leeds. As Lou Reed would say "a perfect day"
