He goes down, he gets booked for diving. You know the rules. ;-) As has been said many many times on this thread,
he's damned if he does he's damned if he doesn't.

Looking at the Arsenal winner first offside, then a dangerous play penalty, for a Burnley player trying to kick a ball below waist height
If you look at the Jesus offside that could of stood ,if City were one of the royals who get these decisions
Its a four point swing right there

Two results against our rivals that if the referee does his job properly then we have 5 more points, Chelsea three less and Spurs one less.

Good performance, but let down by concentration once again. Sane was quality. Fully of pace and intent. Sterling can't do right for wrong. He goes down and gets booked or he shoots poorly and gets moaned at. We need to take our chances early in the game and kill teams off. We played spurs off the park for most of the game.

Sterling has been braded by the PGMOL as a diver. The number of times I've seen soft as shite penalties given for others, but with Sterling it has to be so blatant it can be denied. I suppose he's now paying the penalty (no pun intended) for previous dives in his early career.

Two efforts on target, two goals conceded. Some good distribution but it just does not make up for Bravo's non existent, and I do mean non existent, shot stopping abilities.

You are absolutely correct on all accounts.
I bet Hazard would have got two penalty decisions in his favour yesterday.

If anyone can help please PM me.

Cheers.

Fantastic attacking performance. Taken Pep a while to go back to KDB/Silva in the floating 8 roles but it really worked. If it can work against Spurs then he should know it can work at literally any PL ground.

Focussing on the positives Sane/Sterling looked unplayable at times. Silva was much better and much more consistent in his game across the 90 minutes playing in a slightly deeper role and with Kev/Toure around him to provide him with options constantly. Aguero looked hungrier at least even if it still feels like a bit of a forced marriage under Pep. Jesus is gonna be a star. It's written already.

CBA with our defence. Two chances two goals for Spurs says it all. Absolutely staggered that we haven't gone into the market this Jan. It's tantamount to writing the season off. A half decent full back on either side or a centre half who can defend and isn't brain dead and we'd be 9/12 points better off. Instead we have to watch the fucking Zabaleta and Clichy shuffle every week, or marvel at how Kolarov seems the only (make shift) CB who seems to have a grip on what Pep wants from that position.
