Considering he was supposed to skin Reece James alive, it’s probably that.

Another solid performance from Erling, still “quietly” scoring his fair share of goals even when things aren’t going to plan!

Still learning and will come good so that’s not a worry. I was surprised at him starting today as I don’t think he’s ready to be starting big games yet against higher quality defenders. Think the hype train has got too much of a head of steam if I’m going to be honest.

Pep needs to stop messing around with him. He should be starting all the games against bigger teams. Benching him today was a mistake. As last season shows, he’s at his best when he can get into a rhythm and when the confidence flows. He’s been plagued by injury and what I see as Pep...

The Stones - Rodri - Grealish axis is integral to how we play and control a game. I find when that’s missing things go to pot a little bit. Only Rodri started today and we got drawn into a game of basketball from the very beginning. Shame his screamer didn’t seal the win for us :-( Think Pep...

Strong team that should win. Very harsh on Grealish though, he deserved to start and would rather see him on the pitch because I’m not sure what else he’s supposed to do? Worrying to see Ake out completely - really hope it’s not too serious as we’re thinner on defensive options now. Fingers...

Gutted about his injury - as others have said, a proper Rolls Royce of a player. Really hope Pep can provide a decent update for us later and not fall back into the “I’m not a doctor” mode, leaving us guessing more about how severe the injury is. One positive to take is that it happened before...

Exactly the team I would pick as well

Pathetic comment

Yep you missed the YB game.

VAR decisionS - Utd penalty guaranteed, Rashford dive - Disallowed city goal for “handball” as ball goes within 8 inches of Dias’ elbow - Definitely yellow for Ederson for timewasting - Two yellows for a City player, sending off by 60 mins. Can see Rodri or Bernardo being targeted here -...

Keep your hair on will ya?! Never said Pep isn’t a wonderful manager - he’s human and some of his experiments haven’t worked. Most of the time he’s bang on. Personally I don’t think he went about Arsenal the right way, why are you getting so wound up about it?

Hope Pep has learnt from Arsenal. No dicking around, get back to basics, stuff the starting XI with treble winners and smash them. Bring the newbies off the bench as needed.

Jack is about way more than keeping possession - as Wednesday showed and the whole of last season. No brainer for me him starting tomorrow if the rumoured line-up is correct.

It would have been nice for those shitty journalists to ask how the players are after playing on a plastic pitch just two nights ago. The level of questioning gets consistently worse. Really hope Foden isn’t out. Once again City will keep us guessing until the team step off the bus on Sunday…

Ederson Walker Stones Dias Ake Rodri Bernardo Alvarez Foden Haaland Grealish It’s derby day at the toilet so would like a team that knows how to rise to it. Would be surprised if it’s radically different to this tbh.

Thought we did really well considering the state of the pitch - made worse with the rain - and the dodgy officiating. And the smoke from the crowd. Noticed Haaland showing his scratches from the pitch on the bench! Didn’t feel that worried once - our defensive slackness in letting them counter...

Especially as he’s got to pilot the plane home afterwards

They did this the last time we had the 8pm KO. I’m sure BT used to do a full build up show for every 8pm game, now TNT have the cheek to charge more for less content (not that I want to listen to Laura Woods and co anyway).

Given the pitch…Carson, Gomez, Phillips, Moonbeam, any academy lads free for Wednesday? Don’t want most of our players going anywhere near that surface, especially Stones or any others more prone to injury. Wank by name, wank by nature.
