Kovacic is probably leaving in summer so that leaves Rodri, Gonzales, Anderson

Think Kovacic has got another year on his contract he'll be very hard to shift.

This was a meme before memes were invented.

City fans were years ahead of the curve.

Were becoming what arsenal were under arsene wenger

The 4peat was only a season ago. Give over, Pep is rebuilding.

 

[01cravend]

He had to take Doku off, he was dreadful tonight. Gonzalez was exhausted, he is playing every game.

Doku going off is fine....But for Savinho?

Gonzalez had 2 weeks off 2 weeks ago, he shouldn't be knackered... well actually Pep is playing him on his own with some of his selections so I'm maybe not surprised if he actually is. But again theres better options than trying to go with a like for like with a no legs CB.

Happy to get all three points, appalled by the second half performance.

It's going to be a mental season, blue, it really is.
We have to be ready for more of this craziness because it's not going away.

I am smiling like billy-oh even though it was nervy to say the least.
This is great fun if we let it be.

Up the mighty blues

 

[BuryBlue1977]

Cherki played well when he came on

 

[Ric]

I'd sign that Chukuweze guy on that game alone, looks a right player

I noticed on Twitter that a lot of their fans couldn’t believe he wasn’t starting when the teams were announced.

A win is a win but my god we have some
Problems.

Not sure what we were doing second half and lucky not to concede a 5th in the end they were so dominant.

Tf for Josko in injury time. Made up for him dithering over that shot a few minutes earlier....

 

[Don Karleone]

Grealish would've made that game less panicky imo

 

[cleavers]

Great outcome last two matches. Instead of two points we have six.

Yep, and I know I have a strong heart still.

 

[oakiecokie]

Has anyone got a definition of the word ‘tackle’?

Well Nico got hit in his.

 

[herrock]

Oh for a De Jong, Vinny or Fernandinho type player

 

[Phoenix900000]

Make you mind up.
Am i a happy chapper or a happy chapter,
mate.

I says it like I sees it

And it is you that is a happy clapper (sorry dyslexic) I've said it twice to you

And stop be annoying I don't want to use the ignore button on anyone

Absolutely superb game of football. Two teams going at it like that, brilliant game.

That’s the best anyone has played against us anywhere for years. Well played Fulham, very well played.

Goals were superb, and we could have had at least three more (Haaland post twice, Gvardiol squaring it in a 1on1).

If football was played like that every week, with both teams going at it like that, nobody would ever watch another sport. No pretend head injuries, no long throws, no long punts up field, no taking 55 second to take a corner, no goalkeepers having a sit down for a time out on the sideline, no hint of one team camping in their box with no ambition to attack making it a cagey 1-0 either way… just two teams going at it.

Best game of football in fucking ages!

Absolutely spot on. Good to hear from somebody else who actually enjoys the game instead of listening to these whinging bellends every week. After a poor performance and a defeat I get it, even if they still can't grasp that players are human, but after a win, just because it was 5-4 and not 5-0, give me a break. If you don't like it go and watch chess or something.

usual “happy clapper” nonsense. As always, it’s normal (as I did say) to discuss the errors made but at the same time some reactions such as yours are extreme and I feel sorry for people like you who took no enjoyment from it as you have clearly lost what the game is about. It’s not all about winning every week, having it all your own way. It’s ups and downs. Why let the downs get you so annoyed?

FWIW, 6 points in 3 days feels like an up.

 

[Norbiton]

Five goals from four shots on target is just lethal. No opposition could live with that and well done to Fulham for doing their best.

 

[Fordyboy46]

He's crap.

Well we couldn't handle him could we?

 

[BluestBlue]

Honestly the only difference compared to last season is we are riding a ridiculous amount of luck this season. What on earth was this again?

Somewhat agree. But I would say the main difference is individual brilliance. Haaland’s goals and Nico G holding our midfield together on his own. Add some Foden magic every few games and that’s what I see different from last season. Our creativity is much better tho.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Tf for Josko in injury time. Made up for him dithering over that shot a few minutes earlier....

He got O'Reilly out ot a huge hole, the lad should have cleared his lines instead of hesitating waiting for the keeper to collect.

 

[superwatsonwatson]

I’m amazed we’re 2nd. I’ll put it down to the genius of the Manager.
