Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Crystal Palace (13/05/26)

Well he does need to leave for his own sake as Pep only sees him as a striker these days, so the only games he’ll start over Haaland are these weird rotation games, plus domestic cups. If he’s happy with that then awesome, but why would he be? No matter what he does he still isn’t displacing Haaland, so it’s up to him is he’s happy with just being a bench player 75% of the season.

Squad game, can’t always start

 

[Chak19]

Very nice first half, now keep it up and don't fade in the second half please.

 

[Blue Abroad]

Foden has created two big chances tonight

Three, with two put away.

 

[Gogootz]

Good save from Gvardiol header

Shit save he's a cheating ****

 

[Bluearmy]

Anyone else we have forgotten to slag off? -:)

Megson

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Well done to the stiffs. Once they settled tha was good

 

[Rolo]

Foden dictating play from deeper instead of looking lost in the pockets with his back to goal. Maybe this is the new position he needs.

 

[Rhapsody in Blue]

Fantastic to see that Foden is getting back to his best. Will be like a new player if he sorts his things out during the summer. The quality has always been there.

 

[ufo]

fuck you henderson

 

[hogismuir]

I think I'd speak for most city fans when I say I have never wanted a player to get back to his best more than phil.

Agreed. His technique is incredible, just needs to get his mojo back. Unbelievably, someone described him as "deadwood" on here recently....

 

[roy.or.r]

Foden can be as good as Zidane if he can play like this all season

 

[GLBlue1995]

Have to wonder whether the contract has been on his mind? Somethings changed in the space of 2 weeks

The show of support and belief couldn't hurt.

 

[deano ou812]

Wonder if we might see a couple of changes with Saturday in mind now ?

 

[OldhamBlue94]

Foden outstanding. Love to see it

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

Good half. Two assits for Phil and two decent finishes. Shame the Gvardiol one didn't go in too, it was a really good save though.

"I've been playing shit and i'm nearing the end of my City contract...."

"Here's a few more years, lad!"

"Time to justify it!"

 

[Blue Til Death]

Shit save he's a cheating ****

My ex had one of them…!

 

[super_city_si]

Megson

Nigel fucking clough

 

[Gogootz]

Fantastic save!

Shame he didn't land on his neck the cheating rag ****

 

[Blue_Lightsaber]

Marmoush is a lot better than he gets credit for!

And it's nice to see signs of life in Phil again!
