Watching the United v Arsenal game.. Commentator making a big issue and controversy about Arsenals goal( checked by VAR and no issue).When rat face equalises just before half time he said it was natural justice.. I repeat again natural justice.
Never heard that before.. I think even co commentator McCoist was embarrassed by that

I've heard that before and similar phrases a number of times over the past 10 years, most usually when City concede a goal. "Justice was done ", cowboy justice.
 
Torres story not going away. It bloody annoys me that we get him back to fitness after he gets injured playing for Spain, then he sticks up two fingers and negotiates with the Catalans behind our backs.

He probably is already back in Spain, bloody ungrateful bugger.

Doubt he’s been here long enough to be sufficiently culturally assimilated to start sticking two fingers up, mate.
 
The Birmingham media bigging up Gerrard how great he is well if he becomes a great manager as in getting Villa top 6 then pushing top four maybe win a trophy?! Guess what Birmingham media he be of back home to Liverpool in a flash! Yeah they get a lift but it’s a bad bad appointment in so many ways.

But as Pep always says: "I only want players who want to play for Manchester City. if they don't want to play they can leave." It is a stance which has served us well. City is a big enough club these days to take this position. We are not in the begging business any more and I respect Pep for it.
The truth is that so far Torres has not made the grade in the PL. He will find it easier in Spain. He could turn into a great player over there. But some people are not up for a challenge at the highest level. Barca are a shadow of what they once were.

Would be strange to sell a player when we're scratching for a team.

Let's compare him with Sane, both started their first City seasons at the same age.

Sane PL 26/5 FA 5/2 LC 2/0 CL 4/2 TOTAL 37/9
Torres PL 24/7 FA 3/1 LC 3/1 CL 6/4 TOTAL 36/13

Whatever the stats say Sane made more impact, especially in big games. Also Sane was an out and out winger unlike Torres. Some would also argue that Sane underachieved in the PL (I am not one of them). My point remains though for any player. If they don't want to play for City then they can leave.
Sometimes people just get stale and need a change. Sometimes personal issues get in the way. I wish Sane well and hope Torres does well in the future. You won't catch me booing them when they come back to our place like the mindless Villa fans. The club is always bigger than the player.
