Twittering a question about City which obviously stimulates both Scouse and Scum fans to give vent to their bile in 140 characters or less, yes seems reasonable!
 
Just read the Pat Nevin article on BBC which I must say is refreshing to read an honest, informative and professional article about City,Pep and some of our players.
The best was finally some recognition for Sterling and his performance at Watford and his monumental, yes monumental improvement under Pep.
 
I think all the usual suspects are in danger of letting their anti City bias get in the way of the obvious results pattern we now are producing.
Our goals for are coming in volume without too many defensive worries at least as far as goals against is concerned.

The media are not yet on the Pep bandwagon but even other competitive forums are finding our current form impressive so to continue ignoring or belittling the results would perhaps seem to be patronising even to the most ardent United fan.

The BBC even got their stats wrong. Based on a 90,000 capacity the stadium was only 26.6% full, so to say a third (33.3%) when it is so obviously much nearer a quarter is pandering to their favorites.
In City's it case it would definitely be reported as 'Three quarters empty, the Emptyhad'.

Tacit recognition - 'is it time' - that they have in fact given Guardiola no credit whatsoever prior to this point?

Is it me ? - but I reckon Pep could win 4 trophys and the Meejah ! - would give MOTYear to Pullis - similar to Pellers not getting any recognition for 2 trophys in 2014. - Cynical - who me ?.
 
If we DO win 4 trophies there wont be any credit given just the same old spiel that we should have done it any way because of the money we have spent.

Cynical? Well, only two managers in the last 10 years not been awarded manager of the season after winning the PL.

You'll never guess which two.

To add insult to injury, the following season PEG won the same two trophies (PL title and League Cup) in his second season of his second spell at Chelsea as Pelegrini won in his first season in English football and was voted Manager of the Year. Pulis was voted Manager of the Year over Pellegrini as was Pardew over Mancini in 2012.
