City have scored in the last 61 games (home games?)

Must be on its way in the last 6 minutes then ;)

Has to be a clear goal scoring opportunity, which that was not IMO....

He had a man overlapping and he was clean through.. I would call that a clear goal scoring opportunity personally.

As a side not.. Gary Cahill has been superb tonight!

Take note Wenger. How to take the big boys on. He really is a master. Makes it very interesting.

Indeed - hence my carefully chosen 'decent' rather than good ;)

Really enjoyed watching that. Well done to Chelsea on a very good win, better finishing and the score line would have been wider.

Chelsea turned up and City didn't and were well worth their win.

The difference between the sides in my opinion is that when City are on top form, they destroy opposition. Chelsea should have, they didn't.

Be interesting to see how City come back now from this, could be like Newcastle all those years ago?

this is where I am.

For that same reason, I wouldn't mind city wining the quadruple to out do maures triple.

Obviously I would prefer Bolton to do that but I don't think I will ever see them do it :(

Feeling proper smug for calling that on the way to the pub this eve. Still is, as it always has been IMO, a straight shoot-out between the billionaires. I've a sneaking feeling Chelsea will nick it as Pellegrini, like Wenger, seems like he'd rather win 4 games 8-0 and lose one than Mourinho's win five 1-0.

Still not convinced Abramovich doesn't watch City and think 'why can't I have that' though. Sport 1-0Enterfeckingtainment0.
