Great cup tie, hopefully our squad now realise that we have to work hard in every game, at every level. Mendy had a chance to impress then, what a wally

If that had been Cheltenham vs any other Premier league team than us, the whole forum would have been willing Cheltenham on

Correct, no agenda, just everyone loves an underdog, well done Blues for getting over the line, Danny Murphy though, very anti City every time he opened his mouth !

We would, but we wouldn't be neutral, we'd be Cheltenham fans for the ninety minutes.

Released by Forest at 16 and joined us then

No idea why the Mendy haters are out in force. I thought he did pretty well. Kept possession, defended a bit, fired in some excellent first time crosses and had a superb effort saved off the line. After hardly any game time, I'd call this pretty decent tbh.

I loved that mate . You could see the bbc devastated because we turned it round but we won’t be the first team to struggle against hat kind of opposition and won’t be the last but some of our players didn’t fancy it and that doesn’t sit well . Phil foden is becoming the player he was destined to be and gundo is showing why pep loves him . I have been one of Laportes biggest backers and was fed up with stones coming in but tonight I saw a player who is not performing to stones level at the moment .

wouldn't be too critical of Laporte he had to keep an eye on Garcia and Harwood-Bellis, plus he hasn't played for a couple of months.

true
but the BBC would not be backing the underdog 100% if it was united or liverpool would they ?
truly shocking and so bias by the BBC commentary team. thank god city come back and won the tie because the tv would have blown up or smashed hahahahaha

 

[lazerblue]

At least we now know the history of his entire family tree and the high points of his dogshit career

yeah, the first 25min was like a chat show

How telling that it was a 20-year who stepped up for us today, not some £65m ex-player of the year/African Cup star.

There will be a statue of Foden in 20 years outside our ground. Mahrez will be that player who won the league with Leicester once.

 

[sir baconface]

Why the fuck do pundits and commentators keep saying Foden must start more games?
This season he's a first team regular FFS

Because he went on a significant run of not starting PL games.

Not the best today. We played a 3 at the back with all players that have not played first team football. Don’t understand why Garcia played he doesn’t want to here. A wins a win. Swansea will be hard too.
