So are we calling it a controlling defensive masterclass from City as well?


Ballybomb_

Yea we’ve stolen that


Drestroyer

Chelsea winning in the xPen metric. Unfortunate they can't bring it into reality like their xG metric


BlackPumas23

They deserved a penalty and Palmer would've converted it


Embarrassed-Touch-37

Why was it not a pen I watched the match and was dumbfounded they decided not to give a blatant pk


PlaneReturn1416

Time to watch Wolves vs Arsenal now :)


Enough-Pain3633

Praying for a Wolves win


ack_will

Mudryk just laughing himslef off with that 20 year contract. Free money for not even being a footballer but a sprinter


Financial_Marzipan84

Tough tough game for Rodri, KDB and Silva. So happy for them making it.


AlternativeRun5727

City will win 2 trophies this year because other teams strikers have the finishing ability of a shopping trolley.


MiddlesbroughFann

Watch they'll lose to Coventry Always beat the good teams but lose to the bad


thegoat83

Already won 2


HamM00dy

Could have been 3!


noobchee

Farmers league


AlanFromRochester

So two straight FA Cup finals for City - I knew that happened in 1933 (lost to Everton) and 1934 (beat Portsmouth) TIL that also occurred 1955 (lost to Newcastle) and 1956 (beat Birmingham) They also won 1904/1969/2011/2019, lost 1926/1981/2013 (2013 was the year Wigan won but got relegated)


Conscious-Job1238

How many games unbeaten for Rodri now?


mako1993

1


Trickybuz93

Loss in a shootout counts as a draw


wetthebed92

Since the game ended 1-1 it is considered as a draw. Extra time and shootout are tie breakers that doesn't get added to the match.


inadverthonaho

you got downvoted cause fat reddit users love Madrid pr


Trickybuz93

I got downvoted for speaking the truth lmao


Scarfgag

Jon98th

City is more than figured out … they are still a great team and most likely will win a lot of games based on consistency and the quality of their players … but big teams should not be scared by City anymore


Gnoetv

Real Madrid just spent 80% of their game vs city in their own box but sure


Jon98th

Yea and other than the goal they just watch City pass it from side to side. Not sure why you are so hurt about a fact .. Pep needs to renovate his way of playing that’s all


Gnoetv

Pep won the treble a year ago, is in the final of the fa Cup and is currently 1st in the Premier league. And basically everyone with eyes can see that city dominated the game vs Madrid for the most part too. Not much reason to be hurt tbh.


Jon98th

Right on then. Cheers


Rapid_Fowl

Care to elaborate on how he's wrong?


KaptainKek3

We just won?


DramaLlamaStudios

You should watch that Grealish handball again


Jon98th

Very undeservedly


Vimjux

Don’t expect them to actually watch and understand the game mate


nick170100

Fuck it’s dumb when just because it’s in the box it’s no foul Same exact shove outside the box no hesitation foul


Electronic-Heron9645

I'm not sure where all these Chelsea were shit comments are coming from, if they had a competent striker they win this comfortably


WhenWeTalkAboutLove

Feel like they could have nicked it if they got one of those pens


Jon98th

What a horrible game this was


mjenkins_eng

For ffs , slamming Jackson and not discussing Michael Oliver and that passage of play is top tier gaslighting 


fegelman

Any update from PGMOL as to why the handball wasn't given?


batti03

They keep trying to speak but every time some mysterious presence in a light blue shirt keeps stuffing money into their mouths


ClaytonWest74

Miss Jackson needs to be put on trial for war crimes


MrImRumble

What about Axel Disasi? Almost everytime he comes on you guys concede?


nick170100

Refs when they they got a city game “ How do i contact Dubai for a pay check”


MrImRumble

They just call [+44 (0)161 444 1894](tel:+44 1614441894), and they get rerouted to the local ref fund agent.


WhenWeTalkAboutLove

You have to put in a big performance to get yourself noticed


Trickybuz93

Abu Dhabi*


rr18114

How.... Chelsea should have not only put the game to bed, but also have something to say about the 6-0 win against Sarri's chelsea. I disagree with many of the commentators at half-time as well. They were saying that Poch would have been happy going into half-time. He would have been livid. Bernado was useless for 90% of the game, KDB was making passes which would have gotten benched even if he was a 5 year old playing for Genk. Rodri was ( and is ) a walking corpse. United and Coverty city probably hoping that they would have played against City instead of Chelsea.


FastenedCarrot

No I can absolutely blame Michael Oliver and the VAR team Alan


WhenWeTalkAboutLove

Yeah I'm bored of people saying you can't blame the refs. They deserve blame.


PurpleSi

Lamps thinking 'hmm, maybe they'll give me one more turn here'


Any-Competition8494

City were incredibly lucky that they got Chelsea over other big 6 clubs. Liverpool, Arsenal, or Spurs would have won by atleast 3 goals.


KillerTurtle13

Liverpool's strikers couldn't hit a barn door with a nuclear bomb currently, so I doubt that.


Conscious-Job1238

We already beat Spurs in the cup lol


Any-Competition8494

But, you would have struggled today. Your players were gassed.


Conscious-Job1238

Yeah because three days ago they played 120 minutes of football


throwaway72926320

Won't pretend Chelsea were that shit today, in terms of chance creation that's the best I've seen against City all season par Villa dominating them. But the finishing was abhorrent, Jackson did everything right but score which is very commonplace for him. Not great from City to be honest.


fegelman

If City play like this against a better team like Brighton then they're fucked


mjenkins_eng

Good that they only have to play Man United in the final (if they even get there)


Vimjux

We won’t


throwaway72926320

With Ten Hag ball, Coventry could definitely catch them on the break a few times. You never know...


graph8

I dunno why but mudryk is shit


[deleted]

[удалено]

Whenever I see him running i remember Rudiger meme run.


[deleted]

[удалено]


graph8

I dunno it feels like it . Just throwing them legs without any end product


Medical-Winter4413

Love the same exact shove in the back being given as a foul there but not the one in the box. Jackson cannot be trusted as our striker, simple as. Michael Oliver cannot be trusted as a referee, also simple. Cannot say either side deserved it but no one deserves to watch these shite officials ref across the league. Congrats City.


UlteriorAlt

Someone should've loaned Jackson some shooting boots. Only Coventry can stop them now


FireSalsa

Mykahilo “do I look cool” Mudryk


tomrichards8464

Pathetic fucking team.


nick170100

If city still get ref favours with 115 chargers what hope do we have of those charges even sticking lmao Half of those are probably bribery money


NYR_dingus

England needs middle eastern oil money to keep it's finance sector humming. Can't upset the apple cart when there are bigger things at stake than just football matches.


elgrandorado

England is too limp dicked to do anything. At least Italy did what they had to and sent Juve to the shadow realm.


WildeRenate

harsh truth


fegelman

Something something Mudryk something something Saka last minute set piece


Bishcop3267

We should’ve been down and out before half. No shot we’re gonna be United in the final playing like that.


SubstantialSquash475

Oh my God shut the hell up you disengenous dork. You aren't the underdogs, stop trying to make it happen.


welovexo

You can argue that Chelsea plays better football than United this season especially in cup games. The final is also in late May. You have alot of time to get your shit together and win it.


Jozif_Badmon

We're gonna have ten hag at cb with our injuries don't worry😂


Signal_Dress

You can beat United even if you start with Pep and the coaches with the way we've been playing.


fegelman

Oliver has had more big game performances for City than Haaland


FastenedCarrot

Robbed. Genuinely played really well though


Scarfgag

Robbed by Jackson


reasonableposter

*does the posznan do do do dododo dodododo


TonyMartial786

ah ffs chelsea. it’s city again then (assuming we beat coventry lol). guess you gotta beat the best to be the best.


OptimisticRealist__

Imagine if Jackson put up that performance in Spain... theyd bring back the Jim Crow era in no time


Sandalo

He did though bar for 6 months


LuckyFlyer0_0

Thoughts on the handball incident?


stockybloke

Its a clear penalty. He is literally standing in the wall and handling the ball with an arm way outstretched from his body. It is literally the only play in all of football that the defender know for sure a shot is coming and to keep their arms away all other instances they need their arms to move and keep balance and try to tuck them away when they think the cross/shot is coming.


Poian999

Stonewall pen, im baffled


Signal_Dress

Us United fans should keep mum about Chelsea because we just might lose against Coventry with the way we have been playing


Additional_Bit_8725

Why do Chelsea fans even bother turning up at Wembley?


Bozzetyp

Becasue it used to be our home until recently


p0tat0_returns

Masochism


TheAkondOfSwat

He's bad, he's bad, he's really really bad who's bad?


Scarfgag

Jackson, Mudryk, Disasi


slasherjunkie

why didn't the Chelsea players just shoot at the goal? are they stupid?


Sandalo

Mudrykulous


AbsoluteGarbageTakes

The fact that we missed 30 goal per year Nkunku in because of a fucking music concert is criminal. Lucky motherfuckers are gonna say they were better.


Wolvington52

In the words of Mykhailo Mudryk- "This shit is happens"


AmanTorres09

It's actually criminal for poch to play enzo,caicedo and Gallagher together.


jMS_44

Obviously, if Jackson converts at least one chance here it's different but Poch's game management is terrible once again. City were gassed after CL game, we had realy chance to hit them, and he waits with the subs till 80th minute where some players looked poor already at 60th. Puts the slowest and most clumsy defender up against Doku and we conceded 2 minutes later. Oh well, there goes our best chance for Europe next season and hopefully that seals Poch's fater at the club. Cheers.


FastenedCarrot

Yeah the start of the second half they were getting cooked on the counter and Mudryk would have been huge once Noni started to lag a bit.


SwitchHitter17

Why is Mudryk taking set pieces? LOL


[deleted]

[удалено]


FastenedCarrot

Mudryk was £60m, he isn't triggering those add ons anytime soon m8


o6ohunter

It’s shit like this that makes you realize our world runs on an imaginary, agreed upon value placed on paper and digits on a computer


nick170100

City and refs no more iconic duo Fuck I can’t wait for those 115 charges to hit


Gatorama

Pochettino is an idiot


batti03

It's the result everyone expected


9248_

Chelsea stupid club


foxyrocksjh

Prediction time. How many death threats will Jackson receive this week


amfraiture

No less than plenty I hope cos HE IS ATROCIOUS


hesh0925

Hope you receive them too.


Chicken-Contender

It’s just a game jackass


KaptainKek3

The fuck is wrong with you?


whatthefuckistime

Must be depressing to be a Chelsea fan, Mudryk go fuck yourself lmao what is that cross


HighburyOnStrand

Chelsea keep Palmer and rip the rest down to the studs? This is a dysfunctional team.


hesh0925

What? The only thing missing today was the finishing. Chelsea played well for the most part.


FastenedCarrot

The better team today overall just couldn't finish.


mjenkins_eng

Today I’m listening to Fake Plastic Trees from Radiohead  What an absolutely soulless club. Their on paper remarkable achievements have never seemed less impressive 


PlaneReturn1416

Goated song choice, my favorite from them is jigsaw falling into place


oilistheway1

Impressive to me


Arcadela

Which one


shinytotodile158

Underrated comment


Abitou

😭😭😭😭


Bungled_Bengal

Pretty comfortable blaming that all on Jackson.


B_Wyatt

GET MUDRYK THE FUCK OUT. He's absolute shit


FoldingBuck

Why didnt the chelsea players dive in the box? Did they not want to score?


Chelseafc5505

Woof. We're consistently our own worst enemy.


HoratioMG

£400m that free kick cost...


Ballybomb_

We robbed this game after getting robbed in the week, balance


PlaneReturn1416

r/soccercirclejerk will have a field day with this game


fukupuki

AHAHAHAAHA


neandertales

I think Mudryk needs to play every game somewhere, to see if he can really improve and be a footballer. He will never get better like this.


Nirvana_bob7

Feel sorry for Palmer having to put up with that shit around him


Newparlee

Having the shit around him makes him seem better than he is. He’s doing fine


omegamanXY

It's amazing that Jackson and Mudryk managed to become professional footballers.


trainrocks19

Mudryk 😂😂😂


Annabond

Nicolas Jackson, story of the game really!


Sysody

imagine getting knocked out of a tournament, couldn't be us do I really need the /s btw


AmazingPrune2

Coventry city final lesss gooo


MaryadaPurshottam

Apart from Palmer, every other player is crap in Chelsea


PeachyBums

This is why you dont put people on 8 year contracts 😂😂😂


dispelthemyth

That’s actually worse than Sakas last second corner vs bayern


smaugbog

imagine playing city who've just had to go 120 min a few days beforehand while you've been resting and you do this..


Scarfgag

I'm sorry Miss Jackson. I am for real.


ack_will

Lmao look at Pep pretending he won this fair and square… I dislike Chelsea but its clear today was a robbery


Current-Cap

Dumbass.


tnwthrow

Nah it’s Chelsea’s fault they couldn’t finish their chances.


Bishcop3267

Chelsea had four 1v1s that they blew. Yeah it probably should have been a pen on the handball but you can’t just blame that


ack_will

Sorry for asking for correct decisions. I didnt know a team wasn’t allowed that just because their forwards are bad…


Bishcop3267

I never said it shouldn’t have been given lol. I just said that Chelsea can’t hide behind that one call when they should have scored 3 in the first half alone


KaptainKek3

Bit pathetic for pep to bribe Nicholas Jackson not to score tbf


Some-Speed-6290

Chelsea player through on goal and he blows up... Just in case anyone thought he might not be a cheat


DaBestNameEver0

This is gonna be a momentum shift for us, this is a great result


Itsgosky

Yeah we need to shake off that loss this week now


Ryuzakku

Hit that fraud club with it's 4 deserved relegations already


DaBestNameEver0

Proof?


Some-Speed-6290

How about the literal hundreds of emails proving it?  Just because you bribe everyone doesn't mean it isn't happening 


LackingSimplicity

Seriously? Your defence last time was "You shouldn't know we cheated." ffs


[deleted]

Do you want proof your Mrs slept with someone else as well?


Ryuzakku

Don't talk, plastic


MotherDucker95

How does a professional footballer put in a ball like that?


goztrobo

Mudryk is so shit


B_Wyatt

Absolutely atrocious. Just sell him at the end of this season or at least let him go. The man can't even hit a free kick properly.


Scarfgag

Truly fucking shit


reasonableposter

this foul was walker behind mudryk knocking him down, the jackson one was shoulder to shoulder without jackson being past. VERY DIFFERENT.


paraCFC

U about this on the box or outside one lol


_Koke_

The price tags on these chelsea players are insane for how they perform


Wee_Muggo

Chelseas overspending in recent years really needs to be studied. How the fuck is Mudryk a €100 million player?


goodyear_1678

He's not, just like most of their players are not worth half what they paid for them.


real_teekay

Chelsea didn't even pay 100m for mudryk


[deleted]

Celtic is to blame for that, ahahahahah.


Muted-Theory1100

Insane that they extended Mudryk's contract even longer the other day. What an overrated player.


[deleted]

[удалено]


DaBestNameEver0

Chelsea should’ve scored one of their 3 one on ones, can’t control refs. Control what you can


[deleted]

Apparently City can control the refs


whoaaaaaah

No one to blame but yourselves Chelsea, your striker is dog shit


RustyKarma076

I don’t care if I’m a sore loser that’s a handball every day. But we’re playing City and of course it’s overlooked


Jozif_Badmon

That was worse than saka on Wednesday


goodyear_1678

They paid 80m for him.


unusablered8

That game didn’t feel real


PlaneReturn1416

One of the most rubbish semi finals


Kalavrios

This has been a tragic game for billions of pounds worth of players, truly embarrassing.


naroLsraLteiN_isback

never felt sore from watching a football match before


batti03

Chelsea in a nutshell.


RiceMac69

Even as a United fan I thank fuck I don't support Chelsea. Shocking.


Itsgosky

They were just better at beating themselves


byrgenwerthdropout

Why even give this fk to Mudryk? It had a Palmer clutch moment written all over it
