Man City v Chelsea - The Champions League Final...

[Wonder Pigeon]

Mount has really stepped it up big time, the 'Lampard's son' talk looks even stupider right now

 

[Nick7]

That dummy run by Werner opened up the space for Havertz.

Brilliant wasn’t it? Completely opened up the City back line and without a defensive midfielder they were wide open.

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Commentator "Werner should have done better there"

That'll be on Werner's gravestone.

 

[Zoo]

Mount is the type of player who exploits his ability close to 100% in every game

He’s a great player. You can easily see why managers love him

 

[el3mel]

And Chelsea are actually not defending deep and playing on just the counter. They have the better and more organized side in attacking this half.

 

[SeanyC]

Damn but I hope Chelsea win...

 

[The Hilton]

Chelsea are lucky that the chance for the goal didn't fall for Werner - he'd have sliced it out for a throw in.

 

[kouroux]

Wtf is Mendy doing ?

 

[Chicharo]

Don't know who I would like to win. Abramovitch almost catch us with 2 or 1st title for The massives...really don't know. That's a real Plastico.

Exactly my thoughts

 

[ha_rooney]

If Werner could actually strike a ball cleanly, he could’ve had 2 by now.

 

[RedDevilzFox]

If Chelsea wins this, we should just hire their management and recruitment team ffs.

 

[Green_Red]

We want Chelsea to win don't we?

 

[esmufc07]

Really enjoyable half of football that.

 

[Glaswegian]

That Reece James is a pler, where did the shits get him?

 

[Superden]

ReeceJames looks better everything I see him. Great composure on the ball. Almost an ideal hybrid of AWB and Trent

 

[DWelbz19]

He was always good... never really got why he wasnt rated on this forum. He is just a really good player.

That’s not true. He’s improved an awful lot this season and he has quite a few fans on here now.

 

[bsCallout]

Greatest CB ever pulled away so easily creating gaps.

Our CBs would have been slaughtered

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Mount has really stepped it up big time, the 'Lampard's son' talk looks even stupider right now

He's swapped a dad for a coach ... who knows what he's doing

 

[RedDevilRoshi]

So far so good.

 

[Guy Incognito]

Problem for City in the second half, they'll get chances but you don't want it to fall to Sterling.

 

[kouroux]

He’s a great player. You can easily see why managers love him

Exactly. You cannot ask more from any of your players

 

[2 man midfield]

From where Chelsea were 4 months ago, this is one hell of a turnaround

 

[MrMarcello]

Pep has pepped himself today. Terrible decision to leave Fernandinho and Rodri on the bench. You need one of them in. So strange to leave the holding midfielder out. Suicide.

Makes me ponder outright disrespect by Pep towards Chelsea or are the other options not fully fit and thus save for emergency/limited minutes?

 

[BFernandes]

We want Chelsea to win don't we?

Absolutely.

They're the lesser of two evils of plastics.

 

[peridigm]

Chelsea dominated first half. Deserve the goal.

 

[bosnian_red]

And Chelsea are actually not defending deep and playing on just the counter. They have the better and more organized side in attacking this half.

Completely dominant. Pep left the holding midfielders out and it's suicide so far. All over the place and Chelsea just walking through at will. Just imagine what a proper defensive mid would do for United.. the unglamorous position which is arguably the most important on the pitch these days.

 

[Gonçalo Motta]

Its impressive that Chelsea is leading 1-0 with Werner upfront. I would bet my house if that was Werner instead of Havertz he would fck up that chance too

 

[Carolina Red]

Don't know who I would like to win. Abramovitch almost catch us with 2 or 1st title for The massives...really don't know. That's a real Plastico.

Chelsea. Easily.

I’ll be happy to never see City lift the one with the big ears.

 

[ha_rooney]

Pep’s decision to not play Rodri isn’t working.

 

[Redfrog]

It’s mental everyone could see it..

Yeah but I think the last two games against Chelsea made Pep went crazy to win against them.
So far Chelsea is owning them.

Lampard never managed to get as much from him as Tuchel did though.

 

[Niall]

Good half of football. Proper final with both teams going for it.

And an encouraging scoreline...from the lesser of two evils perspective.

 

[Meller]

That Reece James is a pler, where did the shits get him?

Such a great pler

 

[Tom Van Persie]

Mount is a hell of a player.

 

[Denis79]

And Chelsea are actually not defending deep and playing on just the counter. They have the better and more organized side in attacking this half.

Agree, goal was deserved.

 

[sullydnl]

Fun game this.

 

[AgentSmith]

Depressingly good game, Chelsea should be ahead by more.

 

[Berbasbullet]

100% I was one of those who didn’t see it! Happy to be proven wrong and hope he turns it on for England soon.

 

[kiristao]

Why not? Genuine question?

If the goal was not scored he would be sent off for deny a clear goal scoring opportunity. Chelsea scored so at the most it could have been a yellow for a deliberate handball.

 

[Classical Mechanic]

Danger of Pep disappearing up his own arse again here. Playing a system in terms of personnel that the players aren't used to in the biggest final in the club game all to create a narrative of his own genius has backfired in that half.
