Poor start, but ok since their goal. Still a bit laboured, only really Foden (who has been very good) who seems to understand the need to inject a bit of pace into the game at times.
Cancelo and Mendy both pretty poor, again.
As for the elbow - further proof, if any were needed, that we are getting systematically fucked over.

MENDY poor give your head a wobble

How isn’t that a red?!

 

[scousemanc]

Good recovery to dominate after going behind. Foden influential. Still scared of a breakaway though, but we do seem to be snuffing them out in midfield. They are a nasty bunch of players and the decision to not give a red for that elbow is typical of the unfair treatment we continue to receive from officials, home and abroad.

 

[Draikin]

Foden is the best player on the pitch
Gundogan a parody of himself

 

[ninjamonkey]

Actually laughed at that, why the fuck isn’t that being looked at? Can understand the ref. It seeing it initially but you take one look and It’s a red card all day no hesitation. Before the pages upon pages of corruption allegations, just remember we have nothing riding on this game, it’s pure incompetence and nothing more but the level of incompetence is staggering.

As for the actual game, I see no difference today than the last half a dozen+ games. More keeping the ball for the sake of it, slowing it down to a snails pace allowing them to set themselves each and every attack, our wide men staying wide with no movement and no real purpose to our possession other than getting shit crosses into the one person in the box. It’s very worrying. Foden the only exception to this and no surprise his run brought the goal

Where’s BlueHammer85 ?

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

And again the bias against our club is witnessed before our eyes

Pathetic

 

[chaddblue]

I thought I was being generous, to be honest. Not as bad as Cancelo, but poor nonetheless.

 

[W11Nchenko]

How the frick did Rodri escape red there?!
That's as bad as the time Ederson headbutted Mané's boot.

he's got previous tbf, like when he tried to use his neck to break lamela's arm

 

[richards30]

He got up alright - I'll call out shite decisions, but I'll call out rolling around too.
I'm a dyed in the wool blue - but don't wanna see that from our players

you better be joking?!

 

[Chi-town blues]

Fuckjng cvnt ref been letting city players get kicked . Why?

 

[Gabriel]

And you think back to when VAR asked the referee to send Otamendi off. Consistent,at least in its corruption.

 

[rnblade]

They’re not even trying to hide it anymore, knowing we can do NOTHING.

 

[big phil]

The VAR is Jesús Gil Manzano from Spain as well, not some random no mark from a tiny country.

He's a UEFA elite referee and FIFA international referee and has 7 years experience in La Liga.

and probably a mate of teabag....

 

[Ban-jani]

How do you post videos from an iPhone?

I’ve recorded it for those that missed it

 

[bluetonium]

Real risk of this turning nasty as they seek a winner in this second half now. Musn't rise to it.

As for the elbow, either VAR reviewed it and said no cause to intervene on the referee's initial decision, or they didn't review it at all. Either way, extremely poor and there is an incresed risk to player safety because of the way the officials are handling this match.

 

[deano ou812]

Hahahahaha bt now saying it wasn’t even looked at tells us everything we need to know about what’s going on ..

 

[lonestay]

Eufa are not going to turn this into an uncompetitive match by sending one of their players off simple as that .
