Scott7 5,918 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Forty minutes gone and City getting a lesson in how to play. City 1 - Roma 1. City's goal a penalty after four minutes, Roma a nicely crafted goal by Totti. Roma could have had more but City should have had a second penalty. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 5,918 Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 1 - 1 result. City's performance similar to many of Rangers' efforts over the years. Flattering to deceive. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 City well on their way to a third group stage exit in 4 years. They are a pathetic club. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rangersitis 0 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Happy to see the plaything of billionaires come unstuck. Fingers crossed that Chelsea and Abramovic, among others, suffer a similar fate in the coming years. They are all killing football. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were top 4 in the first place before bought over. Unlike City Chelsea have a side that actually challenges for the champions league. Chelsea also balance their books now and have made decent profits on Luiz, Lukaku, Mata etc recently. Before Abramovich bought the club there was already Zola, Terry, Lampard, Petit, Gallas, Desailly, Lampard, Hasselbaink etc. They weren't a shitty little team made big purely from a billionaire like City were. City are a disgrace. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

City are a disgrace. Chelsea weren't even a big team in London. Prior to the Russian's arrival they had some good players and relative success just as they have done from the 50s onwards. No more than that. I do like your argument that Chelsea aren't the worst when it comes to real-life Football Manager. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott7 5,918 Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 Chelsea won the league not long after the post-war resumption and then were never heard of again until their mid-sixties popularity with showbiz folk. Still didn't do much until more recent times. Magpies certainly and arguably Wolves and Preston North End were more prestigious than Chelsea. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
