Seven games in and the standard of defending in the Premier League at an all-time low.
Some horrific stuff.

Finally somebody speaks up against their policy:
Manuel Pellegrini after his West Ham team got destroyed 5-0 by Man City: “I didn’t like the way Guardiola’s team played against us, City used tactical fouls to stop us and that’s not the correct way to play football.”
I listened to a few minutes of Talksport yesterday, while their game was on and they were calling them out for it quite a bit.Finally somebody speaks up against their policy:

For me one of the worst culprits is David Silva.The reason that it really winds me up is because they can't play their style/formation without it.
They commit far too many players forward so have no choice but to stop the counter attack or they'll be conceding loads. They do it so often in every game and the refs never tackle it.
The moment we found an illegal edge in our game, the refs jumped on it. Why don't they do it to them?
Ouch. 3-0 down.Chelsea look fking terrible. Two Championship players in their starting eleven...
Ouch. 3-0 down.
Yes he was injured in preseason and is still getting back from that.Kante on the bench. Was he injured? I can't even think of a reason you would not start a fit N'Golo.
