Pellegrini seems to be a bad loser - or in this case bad at accepting a draw. He is always complaining in his immediate post-match comments, whether it's blaming the ref or taking a swing at the opposition team / manager. Should look in the mirror sometimes.

To be fair, Chelsea did play like a small team this week.

Well kind of unfair to stoke seeing as how they actually beat City and Chelsea only managed to get a point after that own goal
But seriously Pelle needs to drop this attitude. l see him being Mancini part ll if his players keep underperforming and he keeps going with the negative attitude. Whole squad seems to lack motivation, he needs to stay positive and keep them focused or he'll just lose the locker room and be on his way out.

That's the way Pelle show his disrespect usually. I'm not surprised at all. But at the end of the game the truth is City could not win in front of their home crowd with his ultra physical and bullying tactics. Even Silva looked reckless yesterday.

Shame that the small team is 5 points ahead of them after 5 games.
They were the team that had to win, they didn't win, they were upset, Pelle got mad. Just like he has done every other time we've played them

Typical Mourinho. Stat-padding against pos scrub teams and parking the mega-bus when the other team can actually attack. Some people call it 'tactical genius', I call it *bleep*.

Re: Chelsea are a small team who play like Stoke, says Manuel Pellegrini
I wonder if City were a "small team" last time they played at the Etihad.
Clearly bitter.
Mourinho knew a positive result will see him get a huge advantage as City are the only real direct threat to them so well done to him getting the result he wanted.

Re: Chelsea are a small team who play like Stoke, says Manuel Pellegrini
A corollary of which would be that he got 1 point from 6 against 2 "small clubs" in his last 2 home games...
The guy really doesn't think fully about things before he says them. Though I suppose senility will do that to a person.

In the end, it's looking more and more like Pardiola had the measure of him last season.-#cuckingoldfunt

Unfair to stoke tbh, have they gone an entire half without a single shot on target yet?

Being honest Chelsea and Maureen have been the greatest bus parking duo this decade . Some of the greatest " chit in a stick " games have been delivered courtesy of chav or Maureen managed teams .

Outdone
How Chelsea fans are happy with this I never know.
It was a terrible Chelsea performance. I dont care if your home, away, bus parking, attacking or whatever...they barely mustered any meaningful chances.

I don't know if happy is the right word. Surely no one will deny that it's frustrating and incredibly boring to watch. It's more of just accepting that this is Mourinho's way of doing things and that over the course of the season as a whole, it more often than not puts us in the best position out of all the top sides (see the Top 4 head-to-head chart I posted).
You have to take the bad with the good with Mourinho.

Re: Chelsea are a small team who play like Stoke, says Manuel Pellegrini
I can understand that.
I can only guess its simply the difference in the importance of philosophy. As in, if Barca produced displays like that, I couldnt take it, no matter what the result was.
Whereas for other people its an exchange for good results in the long run of the season.

Re: Chelsea are a small team who play like Stoke, says Manuel Pellegrini
I have to kick some knowledge for you young ones and non-La Liga watchers/Mou Slurper's.
First of all Mou has jabbed and jabbed at Pellegrini taking cheap shots at him for years now especially when he took over the job at Real Madrid when they scored a boat load of goals and Mou called Pellegrini's Madrid the "best losers" after losing out to a Fabulous Barca team who turned around and beat Mou 5-0 the next year.
He also made fun of Pellegrini taking the Malaga job calling it a second rate job where he did wonderful work and at the time it looked like a project that would rival City, PSG, Chelsea etc. Basically saying Pellegrini had no options but to take the Malaga job which again is horseshit and why he would say that is just well classless.
I find it somewhat funny as when Mou left I'm sure he would have flipped out had Carlo Ancelotti made remarks about him finishing 15 points back or Barcelona the year he was fired. But Ancelotti actually has class (Don't kick a man when he's down).
Just to put it out there Pellegrini's record against Mourinho is terrible but to the mans defense Mou said all year long last year to anyone who would listen that there team wasn't very good (when they actually had a very good team but decisions like loaning out Lukaku left them short at forward and Loaning out the best keeper in the world etc. These were still technically Chelsea players, Chelseas roster was very good) which was a lie and basically gave him the right to Park the bus against big sides. Which he did, even parking it against Atletico until they scored and then were raped.
Fine, I mean he is/was completely lying but whatever we know he likes to park the bus and then call it something else, it's what he does.
The two have history which Mourinho started and Pellegrini was correct in his claim. They did indeed park the bus and didn't really go for the kill when they were a man up for 30 minutes. I find it strange. A win would have given them massive breathing room in the EPL and the chance to rotate players and drop points here and there.
And BTW, down the stretch when Mou thought his "terrible team" were going to win the league he called out Norwich for the exact same thing. I mean Norwich for gods sake a team who actually would need to do that to come away with points.
So please take into context some of this before anyone slams Pellegrini. He is talking about the worlds biggest hypocrite after all.
