I love Gabby as a player, he’s good at a lot of things. Self discipline when deciding when to bolt is not one of them though... I feel sorry for his Mrs.
I'm sure it's the way a striker learns the game in South America and more of a case of anticipating at a level better than some of his team mates here that should pass it on quicker or greedily hold on.
He wouldn't be Brazil's no.9 without this attribute.
 
If you have no problem with that defence I am utterly amazed.
I have no problem with this defence against...

[checks notes]

... a Newcastle side currently generously down 2-0 at halftime.

Horses for courses.
 
7? Not sure we've missed 5 presentable chances. 3-0 maybe (the Foden chance). Struggling to remember anything else.
Mahrez from the ederson long kick,another one dragged wide left side of goal not sure if it was Mahrez again or g.jesus yeah that’s 5 maybe I exaggerated a bit ;-)
 
Why there fuck does Dave need to be leaving?

He has been great since the return.

In games like this, Rodri looks imperious.


Agree about Silva since the restart.. he looks rejuvenated, also love watching him Phil and the Ginger Prince in full flow. Gutted it’s time.

Rodri looks fantastic when the whole team hunts the ball in packs. Gets exposed if we are not in sync with our press or when he’s paired with Gundo as they lack mobility together. Great player for our system when everyone is doing what they are supposed to...
 
The only reason the option isn’t available is that it would preclude them from advertising upcoming games as well as trying to kid us about what a marvellous game we were watching
That’s probably it. They should all give us the option Amazon do!
 
Shouldn’t have to but I’d willingly pay a premium for a no commentary option
Agreed. I've watched enough football to not need "Stones... passes it to Rodri on now to Cancelo... now down the wing to..." And that's the most important job they do. The absolute shite that they spout on about to justify their jobs is 100% unneeded. Not to mention the amount of jock riding and bollocks stroking they've done all season towards the Scouse scum in games they aren't even playing in.
There should be a feature where they have the same game with zero commentary available. Turn their mics toward the field so we can hear more of the player banter. I would much more look forward to watching.

Well, Gundogan is on :)
 
He should give it 12 more months, finish with a better end to the season.

He’s good enough.

We can only hope that his last act is lifting the Champions League trophy.

A Vinny-like book end to a glorious City career.

So pleased my own 12-year-old son will be able to hopefully tell his own kids one day, I saw Dave, Vinny, Sergio, Yaya and Kevin play.

Now I know how my dad felt when he brought me up on tales of Bell, Lee and Summerbee.
