Verdict: Chelsea 2 Manchester City 4

Team Bridge triumphed over John Terry’s Chelsea thanks to determined defending, a return to form for Craig Bellamy and a return to the side by our new talisman, Carlos Tevez. This was a stunning result, the best of the season so far, and one to restore belief in our Champions League quest.

Player ratings: Chelsea v Manchester City

Given – Back to his best. Saves from Anelka were the highlight, but equally important was his ability to hold on to shots and keep the defence focussed. 8

Richards – Possibly feeling the effects of 120 minutes against Stoke, Micah made a few clumsy tackles and struggled to get to grips with Anelka. Grew stronger as the game wore on. 6
