Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Brentford (17/12/25)

[Gordyola]

Maybe if the commentators knew the law and the interpretation of it then they would shut the fuck up

Key Criteria for DOGSO
Distance to Goal: How close the attacker is to scoring.
Direction of Play: Moving towards the opponent's goal.
Control of Ball: Likelihood of the attacker keeping or gaining control.
Location/Number of Defenders: Are other defenders able to intervene?.

What is an "Obvious" Opportunity?
It's a situation where a goal is almost inevitable, like a player through on goal, one-on-one with the keeper, or a clear tap-in situation.

The key criteria is inevitable

I actually think Khus is consistently one of our better players when he's between picking up yellow cards, snapping people in half and occasionally forgetting he's a footballer.

I wonder what percentage of viewers would watch football without commentary if it was an option. I think it is on Amazon.

I imagine a very high percentage.

 

[oldius]

Other than Hinchcliffe, this has been wholly positive for me.

 

[mcfcpride]

Khusanov is just rusty. Chill out and support the lad. So fucking reactionary.

100%. I switch it off nearly every game I watch.

The way him and Phillips have been treated is appalling, Pep can be a bit spiteful at times. If Marmoush doesn't play against Exeter he may as well leave.

Well done Pep.

Is he back by then ?

If they could do a good job of getting the ambient noises right then I’d consider it.

Commentary can make great moments even better though.

I just have to put up with mute

 

[BlueMonkey79]

He’s negative in EVERY game he does. He obviously hates us for some reason and ramps it up even more for us. Got no idea why

He sounds like we forced him to play for us whilst holding his family to ransom.

Last night we were singing a song
Ooh we, Cherki, Cherki, cheep, cheep
Woke up this morning after City had won
Ooh we, Cherki, Cherki, cheep, cheep
Cherki, Cherki, cheep, cheep, Cherk

Where’s Utd gone “ where’s utd gone”

 

[pudge]

Horrendous dive

We usually put music on. Oasis.

 

[OldhamBlue94]

How many fucking times do these commentators need to mention the Khusanov foul fuck me they’re like fucking parrots!! I wouldn’t mind if they actually knew the rules…. A genuine attempt for the ball is not a red card if it’s denying a goalscoring opportunity you pair of lemons

 

[wolviedinho]

He denied a goal scoring opportunity so we couldn’t have complained if it had been red. Agree Hinchcliffe is painful though

Running away from goal…remember Haaland?

 

[samuelyeboah]

you have to say mukasa has looked like an academy player every time he's played for us

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

pushed him over Hinchfud

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Not going to win any Oscar’s with that, Sav.

 

[Chak19]

Pathetic dive Savinho.

 

[OrigamiNinja]

I don’t like that shit from Sav.
