Marsh: Man City ‘going out to intentionally lose’ at Chelsea
Manchester City’s team selection at Chelsea raised eyebrows, with Rodney Marsh among those suggesting boss Manuel Pellegrini had shown a lack of interest in the FA Cup.
Pellegrini handed full debuts to five players in a much-changed line-up for the fifth-round tie at Stamford Bridge.
And QPR legend Marsh, who had a four-year spell at City, made his feelings clear.
City will be fined for fielding weakened team. A toss they do not give…..

Have to say, 1st time I have seen a professional team go out to intentionally lose……

If you tell me, with hand on heart, Pelligrini is fielding this team with the purpose of winning I will change my comment !!
