They need a consistency check on the message they want to convey about each match.

For example, in our game they showed highlights that suggested a similar level of chances each. Then the pundits went on to talk about our total domination, but anyone who didn't watch the match would have a hard time figuring that out from the clips they showed.

Don't know if they do it to have appeal to both sets of fans regardless of the game itself, but in games such as yesterday it creates a huge mismatch between visual evidence and their opinions and conclusions.

To be fair its not just us - I have watched and/or listened to other games but when you see the MOTD highlights thought eh? really? Eg the rags ALWAYS come out of it well. Even if they get beat and only have say 3 chances all 3 get shown to make it look like they were in with a shout
 
just watch it I thought it was very good except KDB did not have a quiet game , but good show this time
 
Don't think it was in any way bad. Decent highlights and very good comments afterwards.

I saw the whole match and CFC didn't have half of the game. The stats tell the story of how we outplayed them. It just didn't come across in the highlights - but then 60%+ possession isn't a highlight. The BBC want DRAMA!
 
I always get the impression these so-called experts would rather not give us credit, but they are professional enough to realise showing extreme bias would not keep them sitting in comfy studios for long, being paid a fortune to watch a game they would probably be watching at home anyway.

I do honestly believe that Manchester City, as a football club are disliked by senior figures at the BBC, Sky, ITV and BT. But we're probably not alone. I don't think the Chavs are too popular either, but it would be professional suicide for anyone to come out and admit it on camera. So they grin and bare it and just get on with it. I would imagine, like most supporters, when they're alone with friends and family these people rant and rave about various clubs (not exclusively us), they wouldn't be human beings otherwise.
And we, like all supporters, only see things going against us all the time. And as the years pass we become more and more convinced that everybody hates us and is out to stop us becoming successful.
 
Delph for me, Sane's control and Aguero's perfect footwork were sweet to though. Kev's was a fantastic goal to really. Gonna go with Delph though as it was a very tidy shot.

Nahh it was a class goal but meaningless with us already having the game in the bag

Agreed, i am just perhaps a bit blue specs for him atm as he has sat on the bench for the majority of his time here. I would have to admit this vote is not based purely of the goal it's self; just happy he is getting a fair crack now i suppose.
 
I'm voting for KdB - amazing that half the choices are City goals! Of course none of them will win as our vote is split.
