Media Thread 2017/18

[Grassland Blue]

Also, if you read football reports in the 'little i' as I do, it is clear that more than one correspondent is American. I have been angered by some of those comments made by these correspondents as they have been entirely at variance with what I have witnessed at the games.

 

[its grim up north]

Have we received glowing media coverage after ruthlessly dismantling a 10 man title rival?, or is it still all about the scousers being robbed?.

Even this morning on the radio the commentator said " you get an unlucky decision and end up losing 5 0 "

They need to look at how EFC played, and Bournemouth and Brighton to see how to marshall ten players between the halfway line and your penalty area! Liverpool were carved open time and again!

Truly disgraceful behaviour again from Sterling!

People who say that the best things in life are free clearly haven't ever picked up a copy of Metro.

The little scamp.

Tony Gale you absolute cockwomble. Just on Sky now and said Ederson got a kick in the face and was down for 6 minutes whereas Heaton dislocated his shoulder and was straight back he waved to the crowd. Gayle started laughing and said Heatons a proper man

Just seen that, hard to believe an ex pro would mock another professional who was clearly injured and very fortunate that it wasn't very seriously.

Yeah, that was outrageous I thought.

Nice piece from the BBC, for those that don't follow the stats side, city's expected goals last season was something like 17-20 higher than we scored whereas Chelsea scored a similar amount over their expected goals

I clicked on the 'expected goals' link from that article and was surprised (ish) to learn that of all the top scorers in the league last year, Aguero was the only who scored less than would have been expected from the chances on offer. Kane and Lukaku were both well above the expected goals scored.

In other words - big tough English fella, soft arse foreigner. Xenophobic cockney cünt.

Matt Law clueless ****. John Cross Wenger puppet. Who cares what they think.

Cross was actually very complimentary towards City.

 

[Blue_eyes]

Ederson should challenge Gale to a "manly" duel and put the crapartist in his place.

 

[SWP's back]

No mention yet of our 10 game unbeaten run collecting 27 premier league points?

Quite a feat and mathematically impossible.

 

[andyhinch]

Quite a feat and mathematically impossible.

Thought you accountancy types were used to imaginary numbers ;-)

 

[Norbiton]

Quite a feat and mathematically impossible.

They deducted our point against Everton because of Walker's vicious challenges, Aguero diving and Sterling can't shoot straight so it obviously wasn't a goal.

 

[frothy]

Yeah, that was outrageous I thought.

Yes I saw it the other 2 looked embarrassed, and it looked like he realised what a stupid comment he had made

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

Quite a feat and mathematically impossible.

Ha ha, made me laugh that! You gonna tell him?!

 

[paulchapo]

Why has no media outlet shown the picture of the damage to Ederson's face as he lay poleaxed?

Do you really need to ask that question.

 

[Blue Mooner]

Yeah, that was outrageous I thought.

What an ignorant tw^t. It was the medics who quite rightly made sure he was treated with the utmost caution because he could have potentially had a fractured skull. FFS!

 

[ancoats]

Why has no media outlet shown the picture of the damage to Ederson's face as he lay poleaxed?

its because its all fake like wwe and blood gate with the physio having fake blood in his bag and anyway he did not touch him its a man game just ask dave whelan who broke his leg in the fa cup final hahaha big shout out to the make up artist who did a great job on ederson he or she must have worked on the rocky movies
