You've not been brilliant, but nowhere near as bad as we've been. As for the red cards, there's not a team in the league who don't think they've been hard done by but you're fans shout loudest about it - just look at this place, you'd think every ref and pundit had it in for us. I've seen yesterday's red and if that was us I'd be pissed off, but there you go. You've not had 'dodgy red cards galore'.

Three red cards that have been outright comical. You saw another one today. No amount of gaslighting will work. Oliver has it in for Arsenal.

Whats your biggest wrong this season? Kyle Walker not being allowed to get back into position form the free kick. The way some City fans go on about this, you would think Martinelli ran in behind and finished the chance. Calafiori pinged it on from 25 yards on an angle - this was a XG of about 0.05.

I'd have to rewatch the Akanji incident. The ref messed up by allowing the free kick for Calafiori's goal without letting Walker get back into position though - that's clear.

Walker was in position. I dont know why the F people go on about this. Imagine this being your biggest referee transgression. Fuck me. Talk about having it easy.

The Kyle Walker thing doesn't bother me, but I know plenty on here have an issue with it. My point is that all fans think they're hard done to, it's just that given the amount of air time AFTV gets your lot have more skin in the game. Added to that is that you've pushed us close for two years and now we've had a drop off the clever money would been on you need being top dog. However, that hadn't transpired so your YouTube fans are even more vocal as they feel more 'cheated' because this definitely should been your year.

He wasn't and I'm an Arsenal fan so it's not like I'd be defending City on this incident! It was poor officiating - the ref called across Walker for a chat and then lets the ball get pinged to Martinelli without letting Walker get fully back. Crap refereeing.

And 0.05 is about the chance you have of winning the league

It’s not in the laws it’s an interpretation that a team with 10 behind the ball can hack but if a team makes a foul against a team on the break it’s an automatic yellow.

It is in the laws to an extent as it’s about whether it’s stopping a move that is a promising attack. We give a fair few fouls away to stop a counter, particularly when we’re not quite at it. When we press high and give fouls away trying to win the back then, we don’t get the yellows.
