PL2

Well done boys, dug in to get the 3 points and finally get our season up and running. Great to see Pedro thrown straight in and impressing, Costa close to his menacing best and Zouma tidying up convincingly.

Very happy that this one seems to be happening, especially as it seemed he was set for United.

A defeat on Sunday may convince the board to spend big before the end of the transfer window.

Yea that was a strong performance from city fair play to them.

Fwiw here's mine: Schmeichel Cafu-Terry-Maldini-Roberto Carlos Zidane-Makalele-Scholes Messi-Ronaldo-Cristiano Ronaldo Subs; Buffon, Hierro, Gullit, Iniesta, Ronaldinho, maradona, van Basten.

Ooh this is an interesting one for a Sunday afternoon. I'll get my thinking cap on.

Thank you West Ham and big Pete for making my weekend slightly sweeter.

Take away the fans with their smug, insufferable superiority complex, take away Wenger with his visual narcolepsy when decision go his way, take away the fact they are the original MK Dons, take away the fact they play in red and white. Losing to arsenal doesn't seem too bad now.

I'm a very laid back person but seeing those assaults by Ibra and Aurier made my blood boil. It was a f*****g friendly for f**k sake what's the matter with them? Wouldn't mind Ibra coming to the PL and having that done to him every other week.

I genuinely feel this kid will be a star.

Looking forward to this one, taking my son for his first Chelsea game. Seeing Cech in an arsenal shirt will be difficult to digest though.

I hope we get this one over the line.

Sky reporting a done deal.

I can see this years top 4 finishing in the same positions next season. Arsenal maybe pipping city to 2nd with the introduction of cech.

Andy Cole from Bristol City,

Born in Plymouth, grandad supported argyle. old man supports Chelsea, literally never had a choice when I was growing up. Wore my Argyle shirt on Saturdays and my Chelsea shirt on Sunday's. Got plenty of stick from United and arsenal fans at school but fair play to my dad and grandad they made sure my support for both was unwavering. Thank f**k they did.

That is ludicrous. I would hope for their sake they have hefty relegation wage drop clauses in their players contracts.

Not enough players tell it how it really is. I've got no issue with his post match comments to be honest, anybody who does just remember how the last 14 months of his Liverpool career panned out!

Rubén starts. Cmon son.

Arsenals celebrity fan is Piers Morgan. I think that speaks for itself.

Jeez hull are poor.

110% behind the Blackpool fans on this, the way the club is run is an absolute disgrace. If it was Chelsea or argyle in the same position it would be me on a mobility scooter in the middle of the pitch.

This is brilliant

Good on 'em.

I wouldn't mind someone actually challenging us next year to be honest.
