We’re 23 wins in a row at home but commentators and then reporter kept saying unbeaten for 23 at home. Is it too much to ask them to get basics right??

They knew exactly that it was 23 wins because it was said earlier on, but then changed to unbeaten on several times. Like I've said before, anything good we do will either be downplayed, forgotten about, lied about and generally dumbed down. They fuckin hate us being the best.
 
From the BBC sports page:

  • Manchester City are now unbeaten intheir last 18 European games (W12 D6), the outright longest run without defeatfor an English side across all European competitions (incl. qualifiers),eclipsing West Ham’s run of 17 from August 2022 - October 2023.
  • City's third goal this evening scored by Erling Haaland was their 250th in the Champions League and meant they became the 12th side to reach this milestone in thecompetitions and the fastest to do so (119 games).

I saw that but our own website contradicts it and said the rags had a 25 match streak 2007-09

Yeah the BBC are fucking hopeless, here’s a link to a UEFA page of records from 2020

Different things: Europe vs CL. United's record is only about CL games.

It's also annoyed me last night when they kept harping on that City scored 6 on Saturday but Haaland didn't score.
No mention of him only playing 1 half.
Just pathetic sly digs all the time

Shows how fucking good we are! It's funny how much stick we got for CL performances yet the fastest team to 250 goals proves we've been bloody brilliant and just haven't quite had the luck in previous seasons to convert that into winning it. Monkey off the back last season, the team should have the same confidence and hunger they do domestically to go and show we're the dominant team in Europe as well. 4 titles in a row would be immense as it's never been done in England before, but back-to-back CL's would be incredible. Let's hope we can do both! Fuck it, back-to-back trebles anyone!!!

When you look at the stats so far in the CL, whilst our group is clearly piss for us, we're miles ahead of the opposition in terms of our dominance.
