alot of poster wasted in day jobs

 

[Millennium]

In overall. It was fantastic performance from City. Well done

 

[bluethai]

The result isn’t bad at all, but what’s really worrying is the huge gap in bench quality compared to Arsenal, especially when it comes to creative players.

 

[Gumzy97]

That performance is similar to Madrid under Ancelotti. I reckon we go far in a cup competition this season if we play like that. Haaland is unstoppable on the transition. Having a world class keeper like Madrid has with Courtois is why they were so frustrating for teams to play against in the champions league. Donnarumma is our Courtois

Lol what a fanny.

Just another half wit added to my ignore list.

Edit: not you.

 

[Allnightlong]

Marmoush, but he's injured

Ha …simply forgot about Cherki and Marmoush!!

 

[Blueknows]

He was fucked

Signalled that he had a knock

 

[ChicagoBlue]

What a team performance after a very difficult week!

United, Napoli, Arsenal…W W D

Would have taken that 8 days ago and after seeing Pep(s) be more real in their approach, I feel even better now than I did before the game.

Hope Khusanov isn’t injured-injured.
Hope Nico isn’t injured-injured

After the start Donnarumma has made at City, I’m gutted he got caught in No Man’s Land. Looks big, strong, dominant, but clearly at fault for the goal. Rough with the smooth…

3-0, 2-0, 1-1

Would have taken that in a heartbeat last Sunday morning.

A point at the Emirates or Anfield is pretty much always a point gained. And we've shown another side to us, one that can dig in and be tough to beat when needed.

We now have a run of 4-5 very winnable games to play ourselves into a bit of form before Liverpool come to town. Don't need to worry about anybody else at this stage in the season, just keep doing what we've done this week.

Exactly! Long way to go, let's see where we are in a month or so, especially if Pep and the team can get everyone in the squad fit and up to speed.

C'mon you Blues!

 

[paulchapo]

It's always gutting to concede so late but the majority of us would have taken a point before the game. Considering all our injuries, the fact we had no pre season and we had to play Thursday night it's a great result.

 

[Cuban heels]

We're taking baby steps in the right direction. Just a goal conceded in the last 3 games. Once we are defensively solid, we'll fly.

A shit show ?
What a spoilt brat you are

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Think today showed why both sides won’t be winning the title this season.

Disappointing to concede so late on but ultimately a good point after a busy week.

 

[Gorbachev]

Wouldn't make any difference. We're not in the title race.

We fight until the end though.

We cannot have another season where we end up around 13 points behind 1st.

 

[Solatron]

What a complete prick Micah has become

 

[kunaguero10]

Micah Richards has turned into a right ****, as well as a moron

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

I said to my lad at half-time, one of the weirdest halves I’ve seen under Pep, basically Pulis’ Stoke with Crouch upfront. Nothing changed much in the 2nd half and Arsenal did the same, lobbing the ball over the top for a runner.

Who says we can’t adapt, and if we hadn’t only had a couple of days rest, taking off the knackered legs, we may have gone on to win that.

Disappointing for the late goal, but would’ve taken that before the game.

 

[CityDE]

Bobb probably would have been better at keeping the ball than Savinho.

 

[Moss Side's Finest]

Interesting that there was almost no mention of our injury list, in commentary or on here

 

[Macca77macca]

That performance has really given me a lot of confidence for the rest of the season it shows we can defend when we need to.

By conceding three minutes before FT

 

[noseve]

If Gigi is on his line no way Martinelli scores. the back line fell asleep aswell. Draw is ok, we move on

If he'd stayed on his line, he'd have been rightly pilloried on here.

Similar situation to RM's first goal in Madrid. There are times that a keeper is put in an awkward situation by his team and he just has to do his best, against the odds.
