Chelsea Schooled.

I must say that this is the worst performance from Chelsea, especially coming against a team that has been struggling to score.

Manchester City played too quick and also played too clever for Chelsea. City players were confident on the ball and I could not say the same with Chelsea players.

Chelsea tried to assert their authority early on but nothing was coming from their effort. City was calm on the ball and grew into the game.

Gundogan who has scored in City's last two home games opened the scoring on the road in the 18th minute with a brilliant turn from Foden's delightful pass. It was just what City needed and it came at the right time.

Just three minutes after, the assister turned scorer when Foden doubled the tally on the night to leave Chelsea players seeking for answers.

City was not done as a brilliant break came from a Kante's mistake. Sterling brilliantly broke through and tried to round off the keeper when he was in a one on one situation with Kante trailing him behind but couldn't. He cut in and unleashed a strike that won't go in either. It struck the post and graciously fell in the path of De Bruyne who buried it in the 34th minute.

City could have gotten a 4th with Gundogan's effort. City went so close so many times and could have hit Chelsea for 6 but they lacked that last extra bite too.

Rodri could have scored also with a brilliant header in the 53rd minute but Mendy brilliantly saved too.

It was a forgotten contest because of the one-sided game City gave Chelsea. City couldn't add to their 3 goals but Chelsea got one back in the 92nd minute when substitute, Hudson Odoi grabbed one back for Chelsea.

Manchester City is in a good place now because they have a game in hand while Chelsea slipped back into 8th position. With a game in hand for City, they would be a point behind United and Liverpool.


Thank you for your time.

He didn't turn up on the night at all. Hopefully he would improve after that.
