No corners yet.



Thank fuck.

City up for it and playing well. 2-0 up at HT. Rodri and Bobb back on the bench.Totally different to Wembley. Good atmosphere. What's not to like? Keep up the pressure for 3 points.

Think Marmoush plays with anxiety on the ball at the moment - like he needs to prove himself. But that leads to an obscene wonder goal and what should have been an assist - as long as we build stability around him, you can get away with it next season

 

[paulsimpson]

He’s actually been one of our best players in our run back into semi form. His goal vs Villa is looking like the difference between Tues/Wed or Thurs next season.

Missed him on Saturday

Yep; he's earned his place in the team.

We don’t play teams like Bournemouth every week. Doku would also thrive against a non compact defence

He’d thrive until he gets into the box and hits it out for a throw in

Can’t make it tonight due to family issues so made the mistake of popping in here.
Big mistake.

We truly and honestly have the very very worst fan base in English top flight football. As I’m typing this on page 54 the last non-moaning post was on page 47. For a team that has broken every meaningful record in world football over the last few years.
I popped on Twitter and some knob is having a go at kev. “Shouldn’t be playing” etc. I bet that twat has sold a few tee shirts with Kev’s face on over the years though eh?

We have a small-time, bitter, obsessed and childish fanbase in big quantities. Absolutely terrible.

We are a big club in every respect apart from fanbase. In that regard we never got out of the third tier.
Fucking shit house twats.

2-0 as I finish typing. There’ll be a lot of gutted slobs on here and social
Media by now. And most of them will be City fans.

Sounds like you need to skip social media and this gaff. It's not just the Matchday Thread, you'll have to steer clear of the player threads as well - ooph, there's some stuff on there.

I think we clearly missed Kovacic in the Cup Final.

Absolutely, has been brilliant this season

 

[Gabriel]

De Bruyne’s head went for about 5 minutes after the goal but before that his movement and vision were excellent.

 

[big gaz]

Can we vote now for MOTM and get it done and dusted ;-)

I think we clearly missed Kovacic in the Cup Final.

Baffling how we have so many players miss single games due to "sickness" can't recall it ever being a thing until pep arrived

 

[St.Pauli support]

Gvardiol has to stop being anxious and play football. So nervous in important matches.

 

[r.soleofsalford]

The Marmoush goal reminded me of the Aguero goal against Swansea the way it dipped into the corner.

Sheer power and dip

 

[Nellies left peg]

Poor guy looks exhausted with legs of lead. He must be so frustrated knowing he's been one of the greats and it's disappearing week by week...

Don’t think he will go to another premier league team as the strains on his body at this level have taken their toll, USA is a good option to give Inter Miami a football lesson and show that wanker Beckham what a proper midfielder is

 

[Really_here]

is it the best long range goal ever at the stadium? townsend perhaps and the long range Kev one

Vinny's takes some beating

 

[sh249]

They both spend far too much time in possession. I love Dias but he looks especially awkward on the ball.

Thankfully they’ve spent less time on the ball than at the weekend. Helps having three midfielders all showing properly.

 

[Stato]

Rodri warming up

 

[MarsLlama]

Definitely some parallels between this season and Pep's first. Started strong, quickly went to shit and then seemed to find some rythym at the end to rescue Champions League space (hopefully) but then marred a good finish to the season with a shocker at Wembley.

 

[flook]

Good performance overall but I feel duty bound to slag someone off. Any suggestions?

KDB, go on, I double dare you ;)

Latics winning 3-0 at York !
