Chelsea is winning the league, it was looking that way before today.

It's way too early to say that.


They're still very reliant on Costa and Hazard being fit all season.

Sure, they picked up 3 points here, but there's 3-4 pretty good sides who have a shot. Wait until after the new year at least.

Maybe, but i still expect them to be top of the table a month drom when we have a clearer picture.

Aguero was terrible.

City should've won if he could bury at least one of the million golden scoring chances he had.

Diego Costa is a beast.

January - February should be interesting. They play Spurs, Arsenal and Liverpool.

If they get through that (and there's a good chance they should) then, yeah, I'd agree.

But it's still a lengthy season, even without playing in anything worthwhile but the EPL.

Especially given the game could have turned out entirely different. Luiz could have got a red, and Kante could have given up a penalty if the ref was in a different mood. De Bruyne missed one of the easiest chances anyone will have all season.

No chance Chelsea would have come back down a man and 2-3 goals. Yes they had good finishing and solid comeback, but it's not like they were obviously the best team today or are in a different class.

Disgusting tackle by Aguero. What the hell was he thinking there?

The automatic suspension for violent conduct and the second red is 4 games.

It's possible the FA extends that because of how ridiculous that challenge was.

He also is a repeat offemder. Was already suspended earlier this year.

That was a disgusting challenge. Can't believe he tried to plead his case with the ref.

Fernandinho lost his marbles too. And I don't know how Iheanacho didn't get anything.

Interestingly enough he's a repeat offender on David Luiz.

Who reacted like few others : "Let's not talk about that, sometimes players are frustrated by the result". :handclap:

BTW, Luiz proving quite OK at CB these days and proving a lot of people wrong on these boards. Sometimes people like to stress mistakes but forget about all the other.
