I think he’ll be a shock exit in the summer. Playing him always feels like he’s being shoehorned in, he’ll eventually reach a point where he realises he has to make a big decision. It’s the Jesus/Alvarez situation again, and will always be that way whilst Haaland is here.

Pep’s subs have enabled us to see out this game superbly well. Really took the sting out of it, great control, side to side, no rushing. If only we were winning eh?

He’s great to have, he’s a genuine goal threat and we need players like him that are willing to shoot often. The problem, however, is I don’t think we will be able to keep him happy here for much longer. It’s the same process as what happened with Jesus and Alvarez - they can’t displace Haaland...

I don’t see the reason to be concerned about Ait-Nouri. He’s brilliant and will prove it in time. We are set for years at left back with O’Reilly and Ait-Nouri. I look at them as an absolutely ideal pair of options - what more could we actually want? Just give him time and enjoy O’Reilly’s...

Was ours? We used to bottle the CL all the time, didn’t stop us eventually winning it. Arsenal and Bayern are the two best teams in the world right now imo.

Arsenal have only conceded a goal in 3 of their 14 matches so far this season. They are a complete team tbh. Their style is also perfectly suited to winning the CL…

It’s difficult to get angry when you didn’t feel we were anywhere near good enough to challenge for the title anyway. It’s just another expected performance from a team consisting of numerous players that aren’t good enough. Until the club act serious again, I’ll probably continue to find myself...

Genuinely, how can anyone’s conclusion from that half be that we are just constantly creating high quality chances?

This is a poor City team. There’s just nothing about us.

We’re desperately clinging onto 1-0 against a Brentford team that hasn’t actually done anything. A genuine title-challenging City team would have been 3-0 up at half time and then coasted the 2nd half, still adding 2 more goals. We are such a bang average team it’s actually quite shocking.

Haaland signed a 10 year contract and still has more desire than all of the others.

If we are being honest with ourselves, there is no chance we compete for the title. We lack both quality and killer instinct. We are the Erling Haaland team.

What the fuck is Nunes doing there? He has the ball and instead of playing a normal pass, he tries to scoop it over one of their players on the corner of our box. Fucking braindead half of this squad.

This is the boring City of last season. Painfully so. Stones literally had Foden and Haaland free to his left on the counter and instead opts to pass right and recycle the ball back to the halfway line. Fuck this shite.

I want to see us beat a decent team convincingly to really spark some belief in me. Because the fact remains, the best team we’ve beaten this season is Utd. And they are absolutely wank.
