Dropping Mount to the bench was a mistake

Why on earth would you leave one of your best attacking players on the bench? Surely he must have a knock or something, otherwise it makes no sense.

I don’t know why he wanted to come back both to this league and to that club. Everything was going so well at Inter after that forgettable United spell.

Dollar bills.

It's rare to see half an hour of football pass a player by quite like this first 30 has passed Pulisic

Simply put... he didn't want to

Inter quite literally couldn't afford to keep him.

Gentle reminder that both these teams spent over £100m on a player (that doesn't always start) this summer.....

The only journalist I've ever seen writing critical pieces about the cheating and sportswashing is David Conn, and he's apparently an Abu Dhabi PR FC supporter.

Not true, a number have. People like Miguel Delaney write about that side of City on a regular basis, other journalists have as well like Rob Harris. He was the one who asked Guardiola about the money in that press conference.

why do apposing fans always sing about the atmosphere being rubbish all the time? It is none of their business what the home fans do or don't do. The Arsenal fans midweek were the same.

The Emirates is like a library. Apart from the occasional musings on who should be sacked

The cheek is hysterical

I know Pulisic should have gotten back onside quicker but that was a brain-dead pass by Azpilicueta. Hold on to the ball for a second or two longer instead of just making the pass to someone obviously offside and then throwing your hands in the air.

Yeah it was very obvious at the time (and now) that he didn’t want to. Inter couldn’t turn down the silly money the oil tyrant was offering

Kovacic clips Silva's toe. Silva goes down like he has had his ankle smashed to bits. Shame it wasn't.

That’s not true. They also sing about Spurs no matter who they play or how important the game is.

Who’s even out who would play? Absolute fucking weapons

They were forced to start their 100m pound midfielder so things must be pretty stretched. No Zinchenko, either.

Chelsea famously shit all over good quality strikers I guess: Shevchenko, Torres, Werner, Lukaku etc

City making Kante look average which is pretty impressive.

Guardiola v Tuchel cage-fighting would be cool.
A genuine huge audience for that.

Chelsea dealing with it fairly well but Kante needs to get going

Well it's very brave to press this City midfield, it's much less brave to press Milner and Henderson!

Lukaku Werner chemistry reminds me of mine and mother in law.

You realise Werner is on the bench right - pretty difficult to have chemistry with a player you aren't playing!
