If ever a pic illustrated flat-track bullying - the only reason they beat Spurs is that Spurs are consistently shit away to the other top 6 teams.

City table for comparing:

Our worst results on that are:

Everton - 10 men, 1-0 down, battered them, should have won.
Bournemouth - wonder goal for 1-0 down, battered them, got the winner very very late.
West Brom - battered them, conceded 2 due to defence brain farts.

Everything else is generally ‘battered’ and got the ball in the net easier than other games.

The most irrelevant game (for form/score comparisons) was Palace. And Possibly Stoke - though that was on another planet.
Blinkers could argue ad nauseum about pool as well. Yawn.

And after we humiliate them in the derby. Their charging chariot will, change back in to 11 little mice, led by a pumpkin.

With Pogba back they will keep up with us against the cannon fodder. He does have the delivery to break down those defences they've failed to score against in the last few months without him.

They still aren't good enough to beat the best sides in the country though, and I'm pretty confident we can beat them twice too.

Should be 15+ points clear at the end of the season.

What struck me about him yesterday was the way he loafed about when the ball transitioned to Toon, especially when Matic was out of position. I am so conflicted, because on one hand I am always nervous ahead of playing them, but on the other, logically I just can't see how they are going to stop us when their "best" player refuses to work off the ball.

Reading the wank-tastic reviews of their performance, you'd think they'd destroyed the mid-50s Hungarian national side. But they HAVE to know they can't hang with us. I've a sneaking suspicion they are shooting their celebratory wad now because they know they won't get to in December.

Pogba reminds me of Balotelli. Moments of class but lots of ordinary stuff too.

I tend to agree with those who think the tactics will be to kick us over and over, and hope they get a lenient official. They will go right after Silva as everyone does but DeBruyne especially because once in a while he gets his dander up and retaliates.

The derby when they systematically tried to cripple Sweep will seem like a picnic compared to the forthcoming one. Peg is a very jealous man and he will be hating the plaudits we're receiving for our wonderful football whilst his Billion Dollar Wimbledon are being rightly criticised for their Sunday league hoofball. He is not stupid and he knows we'll destroy them toe to toe, so he'll get them to kick fuck out of us instead. He'll employ every cynical, underhanded dirty trick to ruin our game - regardless of what it costs him in red cards (should there be any referee out there with the spine to stand up to that bastard of a club).
He'll be gone from the swamp soon so he'll take any and all opportunities that come his way to make his last games against Pep memorable for all the wrong reasons...making them a blood bath. Then he'll fuck off to PSG sticking two fingers up at the Premier league as he goes.

PSG don't need (want?) him.

@M18CTID please re post this in the Title Race thread on the caf. Those fuckers have convinced themselves that we’ve been lucky so far and they’ll beat us at OT.
 


Nothing but cringe here.

What an embrassment. This kind of behavior makes me hope we really destroy them in the derby.
 
As close to 8th as they are to 1st and celebrating a home win over newly promoted Newcastle like they've won the Champions League, pathetic twats.

It's genuinely amazing that there are 3 sides worse than West Brom in this league.
