Blues find their old feet!
This was probably the hardest month of the year fixture-wise. We faced very hard to beat teams and we knew that strong performances would be needed to get any points from a few of these sides.
September update:
Blues 1-0 Arsenal
Yannick Djalo
The best result of the season so far, we were irresistable today. They only looked slightly threatening on the counter-attack but otherwise their 'attacking prowess' was non-existant.
Blues 2-1 Bayern (ECC)
Yannick Djalo 2
A great start to our Champions League campaign! We dominated their injury stricken team for almost the entire game. We created chance after chance and really deserved more goals. A good three group points though.
Newcastle 0-1 Blues
Ekdal
A very good performance from Steve Harper kept the score respectable for them. We really had trouble breaking him down until the seventy ninth minute when Albin curled the ball in from 25 yards. It was a great goal to grab us the win we deserved.
Bristol City 0-4 Blues (LC)
Larsson 2, CHUCHO, Yannick Djalo
A confident performance takes us through to the fourth round to face West Ham. It was good to see Christian score as the competition for striking places is really hotting up. The way we are playing at the moment really symbolises the faith the team have in making a successful season.
Man City 0-3 Blues
Larsson, Yannick Djalo 2
Probably the best performance of my regime as manager. We absoluelty destroyed Mancini's negative tactics with all out attacking play. Yannick was brilliant in front of goal and tested Shay Given many times. A great day for the club as we dominated the title favourites.
Spartak Moscow 3-3 Blues (ECC)
Hamsik, Austin, Ekdal
I'm not going to moan, we were expected to lose and we got ourselves three up. Yeah, I'm a little disappointed but we're not expected to get anywhere in this competition.
Month overview:
Won: 5
Lost: 0
Drawn: 1
Scored: 14
Conceded: 4
Yannick is quickly becoming a household name all over the world, he is at the moment; Europe's deadliest finisher. Keep it up.
A complete and utter beast at the back! That's all I can say.
One of our best months under my control. We brushed aside quality teams with relative ease. If we keep this up the title will be a disappointment to us.
