An odd jose move - i guess its to play against the big defenders of city and hold the ball up. Perhaps a mobile remy would have been better.
Anyway, its all over now.
I feel disappointed that we didnt win, but until the sending off and the goal from schurrle I thought we would be lucky to get a draw.
When we went in front, Jose did not change the team or the way we were playing. That was probably the mistake - we should have changed things.
Still, a draw is a good result - it will definitely be our hardest game of the season. Other games have gone our way this weekend with our rivals dropping points (bar arsenal).
Frank didnt know what to do at the end - he went to the chelsea supporters who applauded him off the pitch. Class all round.
