why would any "professional" journalist downplay the quality of product they are trying to sell to their audience? isn't that, in effect, downplaying his own worth?

Because City aren’t the product they’re trying to sell - and we aren’t their audience.

The Fail have no interest in engaging City fans in reading about their team - the product they are peddling is endless reams of empty drivel about United and Liverpool.

It’s little more than a Fanzine.
 
The last 7 days of Slys attempt to sell Penandes as the greatest ever Premier league signing looks very futile again this morning.
They never learn from their previous mistakes of blowing smoke up the rags arses.
No cos their get out of jail card and smoke screen now seems to be racism, which is very sad.

Would it really hurt them to praise other teams players every now and again, or like a junkie are they just addicted to shit gear that as we know as a detrimental knock on effect to the wider community.

THEY NEED TO GET CLEAN!!!
 
It’s also strange because he basically dismisses the goal, says we only had one shot on target but then cites other shots that prove that his assertion is wrong.

Not like the media to tie themselves up in knots reporting on City. Turning a positive into a negative is very much the reporting style.
Cith beat West Brom. Aside from the five goals City only had one shot on target and apart from the other 40%, had just 40% possession.
 
Just listening to 606 from last night, the sport bulletin just said, and I quote, "Manchester City just did enough to ensure they'll remain top of the table for now"
For now?
The woman reading it out sounded fucked off when she said it.

Was a weird way saying we're top. Bitter cunts.
That might have been the same reporter who gleefully announced "Liverpool turned on the style beating Tottenham..."
 
Dharmesh shit is painfully annoying on sly and over on BT you have 2 old fellas that look like they have been pulled from the bin, dolled up with a bit of makeup and a hair wash.

But then, at the bottom of the report, he awards their goalie MotM. They just write shit piled on shite, not understanding that what they've written is full of inconsistencies at best or just total inaccuracies! You'd think that a national broadcaster, so covetous of its reputation, would produce something that matched what actually transpired.
 
Simon Stone's match report on the Beeb

Aside from Gabriel Jesus' close-range strike from a Ferran Torres cross, an instinctive header from Bernardo Silva - created by a stray Oliver Norwood header - was City's only effort on target until Aaron Ramsdale denied Oleksandr Zinchenko and then Aymeric Laporte from the corner that followed.


What a weird sentence
Without any timings that’s just laughable. City scored and had another shot on target, then had no shots on target until they had two more.
 
Anyone enjoying the Pep Milestone special this morning on Sky Sports. Absolutely eulogising over the unbelievable numbers he has posted on his managerial career and his time here in England.
It's that bad with all the media I'm not sure if this actually happened or your just having a laugh.

I know which I'd be putting a pound on and I'd be laughing too then.

ignores a couple of efforts in the second half by Jesus and Zinchenko and a header by Laporte? Not an easy game but we were in control and it was a professional display that incorporated half a dozen squad rotations

Stone was encouraging Blades players to dive in the BBC live text.
Must be overdue for another of his regular appearances on the dwarf boxing promoter Howson’s laughable YouTube grift channel
