I was predicting 5-1, should be that score now

In the 90th minute City make it 5-1. Hope you had at least a fiver on it

I wish Rich

That pace, passing, movement, creating lots of chances is frightening

How on earth can the likes of Huddersfield, Brighton, Reading , Sheff Wed or Leeds cope with those qualities if they go up to the prem ?

Championship football is so much slower

My god how can Aguero not speak fluent English after 6 years here ?

Did I hear the interview wrongly or was I right in my belief that Aguero listened to the interviewers questions in English without the intervention of his interrupter but used him to translate his answer.

Seems that although he can not speak in English, he can hear and understand in English

Agree. How can you give man of the match to a player on a team who has lost by four goals. What was Murphy thinking. He was subbed as well for goodness sake, didn't even contribute to the whole match.

You were right. I've seen this before when certain foreign players/managers are interviewed. For some bazaar reason, it seems as though they are prepared to listen and understand the questions asked of them, but find it impossible to be able to answer back in English. The Spurs manager ( I'm not gonna even try to spell his name at this time of night) springs to mind when he first arrived over here, but credit to him he now conducts the whole of his interviews in English. And yes, why after six years does Aguero still have to depend on an interpreter.

Murphy put his championship hat on, he like some folk looked leftside for his choice of MOTM when quite clearly Billing wasn't as there were so many candidates in the Citeh side for the honour. Only allowance I can make for DM is he's a dour scouser, not one of my favourite pundits

Really surprised as Aguero is such an intelligent footballer so I assume he is not daft, perhaps he lacks confidence with interviews, either that or he is just lazy !

...and yet just about every country in the world teaches at least basic English, partly because it's the international language of the airlines.

Scum down to ten men at Stamford Bridge after 35 minutes

Jose not amused

[whiteswan]

Just finished watching the game 64. Yes, I think Jose got a bit rattled. Am I right in that he and conte didn't shake hands at the end? I thought that conte just walked on the pitch away from Jose to congratulate his players. They may have shaken but I certainly didn't see it.

I don't think there was a handshake as Conte marched straight onto the pitch towards his players

There was no love lost between those two !
