Was listening to 5 Live tonight's Monday night club.

Shay Given was saying that it was unacceptable that VAR didn't send off Henderson and that they must have been the only people in the stadium that thought that wasn't a red card. Was thinking to myself well apart from Shearer and Guy Mowbray as well.

Chris Sutton made the point that I was saying on Saturday, imagine that had been at the other end, all hell would have broken loose if the City keeper wasn't sent off for that.

They then went on to have a discussion about City losing, Haaland not taking the penalty, the fact that the manager doesn't select a penalty taker and that the players can decide themselves on the pitch (amateur hour this was described as) and Bernardo's comments in digging out team mates with pointed comments. Also a bit on Grealish with Given saying he feels sorry for how he's been treated and we should build the team around him, had all the football coached out of him by being made to play in a system etc and also saying he could replace KDB.
Then they also talked a bit on KDB not wanting to leave and being forced out. And also on our January signings that none of them bar Marmoush have looked anything like a success yet and £170m was a big outlay. Oh yeah and they also said it was very strange Echeverri got a run out ahead of the likes of Grealish

Their conclusion was that after years of doing everything well and efficiently that it all seems to be unravelling for City and that we're in a bit of a mess at the minute, and that Pep looks tired and as if he doesn't want to be there at times.

Whether you like these pundits or not, a lot of what they said is true and worrying.

It seems that Shay has moved closer to the sort of City bashing associated with the blister Sutton as this season has progressed, Don't know what his beef is but he's let himself down badly in the eyes of most blues - also you need to bear in mind he regards Jack as Irish.

Any other former Palace players/managers they haven't interviewed yet after them winning the Cup Final ? I haven't heard from Vince Hilaire yet but it can only be a matter of time.
Btw, with Ian Wright, is it "we" for both Arsenal and Palace or only the former ?

Think it's just about him, really.
Not a fan...

Does he?
Id doubt that. I don’t think anyone from Ireland still regards him as Irish
Played with him at Villa is why he’s friendly with him

& yet none of it would have been spoken about if the keeper was sent off & we’d gone on to win by 6.

I also think it's worth noting that Pep was fully supportive of Jack when his house was broke into and his partner and some family members were caught up in it.
It's unfair, IMO, the criticism aimed at Pep, for alleged 'harsh treatment' of him.

Pep has supported Grealish with his off field issues. Grealish has let Pep down with his antics.

The good old bbc have stated we are cooling our interest in Florian Wirtz......
'Owing to the soaring cost of the deal'

They go on to say it would be the biggest deal in City's history reaching up to 300 million euros...... wait for it....... inclusive of transfer fee and wages !

Just what the fuck. He's 22, if he stayed until he was 35, why it could be a world record 500 million, that's including win bonuses, taxis home after a night out and selling his worn shirts on Ebay

Its beyod a joke. No other club has wages quoted as part of a fee.

The dippers do now!

Their interest is all over SSN too.
So now everyone knows now how much Wirtz will cost, lets see if they'll be scrutinised, seeing they've already spent a shitload on Salah's & Van Dyke's wages!
They ain't sold anyone, so what exactly is liverpool way??

Agreed, and for all the press shit written about Grealish and City as a whole, we don't know what his training performance is like. It may just simply be that others are outworking him.

The puzzling thing with Grealish is that when he has played, hes actually player pretty well. Weirdly, he plays half decent and then we dont see for two months.
