Chelsea fans tasted defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford on Wednesday night – where a chant about Manchester City could be heard.
The west Londoners suffered a 2-1 loss thanks to a double from Scott McTominay.
So, what did Chelsea fans chant about Manchester City? Let’s take a look…
What Chelsea fans chanted about Manchester City
Well, Manchester City fans will like this one.
Those in the away section at Old Trafford on Wednesday night could be heard singing: “Your city is blue, your city is blue, just like London, your city is blue.”
London being blue is certainly debatable at the moment, although Manchester most certainly is.
The Citizens steamrolled over the Red Devils at the end of October as a double from Erling Haaland and a strike from Phil Foden secured a 3-0 win at Old Trafford.
During that game, Manchester City fans mocked Erik ten Hag’s side themselves with a rendition of “Old Trafford is falling down” – to poke fun at the state of Manchester United’s stadium nowadays.
Manchester City could also win a fourth consecutive Premier League title this season – something Manchester United, who own a player Guardiola likes in Kobbie Mainoo, never achieved under Sir Alex Ferguson.
Therefore, Manchester is unquestionably blue.
Manchester City have work to do
Manchester City supporters can take a small shred of comfort from what Chelsea fans chanted at Old Trafford, but there will undoubtedly be concerns emerging from within the fanbase.
The Citizens are now winless in four Premier League outings and find themselves six points off Arsenal, who sit atop the table – Aston Villa even leapfrogged the treble winners with their win on Wednesday.
Pep Guardiola has lost something vital within his treble winning side – perhaps the experience of Ilkay Gundogan – and it is now up to the Spaniard to rediscover it quickly, or else a historic fourth consecutive Premier League title will slip away.
