Looked to me like the Newcastle players just belted it forward. Thought THAT was a bit lucky, too.

'Where Were You When You Were Shit?
Obviously, this rankles with the home crowd because that support is proud of the way some of it’s support stuck by Man City in less financially doped days at Maine Road, when they were a proper club. I laughed when they sung it back to the away end, blissfully ignorant it seems of the Championship team we are following in the Premier League.
If there is one thing our support utterly owns and it’s the moral high ground.'
Seems odd to complain about security checks. Everyone knows what they're there for nowadays.
Moans about soul and being dead but their ground is named after a fucking budget sportswear shop.

Zinchenko was outstanding.
Technically superb, I felt he offered just as much as Delph does.
If anything, he makes that Silva Sane combo work even better.
To make 114 passes and complete 94% of them on your first start in the Premier League, at his age, is very impressive. I thought he was our best player in the first half; although Cap'n Dave was very good.
I heard someone make the point that Zin looked far more impressive when put into a full team than the weaker ones he has played in so far; whether that was coincidence or just progression, I don't know but he didn't look out of place. Good opponent for him to start against but that's just good management from Pep.

Really good performance. Zinchenko excellent, there was a real energy and confidence about our game. Exactly what Pep will have wanted.
I am serious. Apologies for not colluding in the illusion that Otamendi is 'Mr Reliable'.No doubt you will catch quite a few with that. If your serious, you havn't a clue what you are on about

He's been our best defender all year, mate
Based on what I've seen, he's currently the best CB in the league.
Very well said totally agree it was the ball given away in midfield which led to the goal, which nothing to do with him. Very impressed only problem I can see is that he is fairly light weight and could get out muscled.Particularly as it was his first ever start in a PL game, and he's just turned 21.
As regards his pace, only once yesterday was he forced to use it, when he lost his man for the goal, and gave him a 5 yard start, but he nearly caught him by the edge of the box, but he couldn't challenge (from behind) or it would have been a penalty and/or a red card.
I thought he had a good game, and will only benefit from playing more regularly, he's a neat and tidy player, who rarely looks pressured.

Or another way of looking at it is that when 2 goals down & with only a quarter of the match left to go, Newcastle decided to come out to play. It's about perspective.Yep and one of them were an Ederson triple save away from a completely underserved point as instead of killing the game of at 2-0 we completely took our foot off the gas and lost our focus.
What sort of morons have they got following em now , we were treated to the full lot today,Their fans are a particularly angry lot.
Shit Man Utd
Your grounds too big for you
Where were you when you were shit
Celebrations for only getting beat 3.1 , they were like a 3rd division cup sides fans , no class at all.
