[bluevengence]

Alty **** is making my fooking head explode..wanker.

 

[DavidWhitesUnderpants]

As many have said, best we've played for a while. Nice to see.

In other news, Taylor is an absolute fucking wanker and a disgrace.

 

[daveiw01]

Is there a more likable ref than AT?

Yes, every single other ref.

 

[CΛL]

Nico Gonzales is the man, has it in spades. Perfect for Pep and perfect for this league.

 

[pbueno16]

No. We have the perfect balance right now.

I'm not saying right now ffs. If we put another 2 on them and keep them out, then why not?

 

[alexmcity]

Fantastic football. Could've been 3 up.

Cherki and Doku create chances for fun.

Add Rodri next to Gonzales, who was top in the first half, and we are talking.

 

[CityDE]

Very entertaining. Cherki and Haaland, incredible so far. Ref's a ****.

 

[jollylescott]

I'd be happy to play this eleven every game this season. The balance is perfect.

 

[remember arthur mann]

How refreshing to see 2 team with different tactics play an open game & entertain the fans .

Then you get Taylor with his pigmol directive to.fook it up.

 

[uwerosler28]

In the stadium any idea why the players went to the centre circle as if to do a minutes silence, stood there for 30 secs the it all got cancelled?

 

[eyalluvitt]

Good atmosphere for 40 mins goes quiet on 41 and the commentators complain it’s quiet and sterile, commentated to a different standard

 

[johnny crossan]

Great stuff to watch, I think Rudolph needs to watch our midfield getting stuck in and up his game accordingly.

 

[Gazza]

A concise summary of that half.

We are playing well.
We have missed some sitters.
I can excuse The Don that one mistake.
It might fairly be argued that Anthony Taylor is not having one of his finest games.

Taylor is that bent I bet he's putting a hotel fee on his expenses.

 

[super_city_si]

Only complaint (besides the wank ref) is we havent scored 4. Tight game v these at only 2-1 but I cant see us not scoring again with this talent on the pitch.

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Is Anthony Taylor always shit or is this a one-off?

It didn't come naturally.
You have to practice long and hard to reach that level of incompetency

 

[Penfold the Duke]

Hope the pundits rip Taylor a new one after this, plenty of noise made in the stadium about him. More songs about him than City almost!!!!!

 

[JULES]

good game of football, cherki the difference for us. Foden looking good again, they are lucky to be only 1 behind

 

[Blue Llama]

Fantastic football. Could've been 3 up.

Cherki and Doku create chances for fun.

Add Rodri next to Gonzales, who was top in the first half, and we are talking.

Who do you leave out to have Gonzales and Rodri on the pitch together?

 

[spiny]

Appalling how consistently referees apply a "levelling up" bias in decisions against City?

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

They probably wdon't even get a Xmas card

They'll get one from Howard Web.
