FA Cup Third Round

We've seen on stuff like that before where the ref will blow to stop the game and go have a look if the ball doesn't go dead soon after.
What is the time period before they wait for the game to naturally stop vs when they stop it themselves?
 
They only lost 1-0 with Cookie on the pitch. Deserves a new contract on improved terms.
 
Chelsea giving City a nice confidence boost right before we play them.
 
Got to hold your hands up and praise Pep to be honest, every player in that side can control, pass, move. They're on another level.
 
Chelsea lost midweek against City but they put a decent shift in and probably deserved at least a point.

They've been woeful today though, the sort of performance that makes you think has the manager lost the dressing room.
 
I suspect Tuchel was very popular with the Chelsea players, his sacking wasn't performance related, I'd be pretty pissed too.

Absolutely will be a part of it. Probably the worse of all their sackings in the past 20 years.

I think its at their discretion, that one was particularly long though.
 
This could get very ugly for Chelsea very quickly. They could be on the end of a six goal hiding like we have been against City once or twice.
 
There's nothing like a good competitive game....unfortunately this is nothing like one.
 
We haven't really played super well like this since the derby so nice we're finding a bit of form again. We've been diabolical last couple of months, interesting that no KDB in the team and midfield is a lot more fluid today.
 
They do look better without Haaland.
Maybe Chelsea are just ultra shit today but its fun to debate anyway

You do appear to be playing against training cones, but yeah very fluid today.

Thats fair, I feel for Potter a bit, not even a 2nd string XI today with players that played the league game needing a rest and their injury problems. Its a poor Chelsea side for sure.
 
commentator far too fond of the “a certain” idiom, used it for Haaland and Kompany already
 
Boos at half time

Sounds like the Chelsea fans have had enough. Don’t blame them. Long trip to watch that dross.
 
we really didnt need them firing on all cylinders before we play them......you useless cnuts Chelsea.
We’ll put them in their place. Even we’re miles ahead of Chelsea. We dominated them at Stamford bridge and should have got all 3 points.
