“City in crisis”

[Moss Side's Finest]

It's going to be fun at the end of the season when someone digs this thread up after we win the title

Sporting 4-1 Man City

Shortly after Gallagher declaring he "didn't expect it to be so easy for us" with Manchester City 1-0 up in the first half, Sporting's comeback began and Ruben Amorim's side eventually ran out 4-1 winners.

However, he went on to exude calm from a City perspective post-match despite a third successive defeat for Pep Guardiola's side in all competitions.

"Not a lot of City fans will have thought we were going to come here and win," he added.

"I go every week and stand on the terraces, I know what the chat is. We're not in a great place at the moment but we're not going to panic.

"We've won four leagues in a row, we're going to ride this out and we'll be there in the shake up at the end."

Sporting 4-1 Man City

Oasis star Noel Gallagher caused quite a stir on social media when he joined the commentary team on TNT Sports for last night's Champions League match between Sporting Lisbon and his beloved Manchester City.

Speaking pre-match, Gallagher provided some interesting insight into Pep Guardiola, who he has built a close relationship with since he arrived in Manchester in 2016.

"He [Guardiola] is a good friend," he said.

"He means everything. I think when he eventually leaves and when people look back on what Manchester City is it will be with this guy in mind. He changed the game in the country as well.

"The guy is like a wizard. The players are completely under his spell, they'd run through a brick wall for him.

"He inspired young coaches who all want to be like him. He changed the way young coaches see the game.

"He'll get carried out of the stadium on a shield. I personally think he will stay one more year. He's not going to stay for another seven or eight years. It feels like the end of an era is coming. I think everybody is ready to give him what he deserves in a great send off."

I had a feeling the last two games would go against us, (wasn't arsed about the Spuds game) but after the opening 35 minutes or so of last night I was more than encouraged.

I think with KDB back and hopefully others after the break I think we will be fine, I'm a lot more hopeful for the Brighton game as well.

We have a transfer surplus that I'm sure we'll use in January, always difficult to acquire players of the necessary standard that time of year but I'd imagine we'd give it a go.

I'm not on the bandwagon of City being in crisis, we were unbeaten this time last week. Its just been an awful 7 days since. One thing I would say is when Rodri got injured, taking into account we had won 4 in a row, i felt this would probably be the season the run ends. Hopefully I'm wrong and they get back on a run, but with all the other injuries I currently would be surprised.

I don't think interviews like Bernardo did last night helps with the crisis talks. Gave the haters all the ammo they need and would of been music to the ears of our rivals.

The only crisis at City is when they run out of pies and beer!

City in crisis? Nah, not even close.

City in injury crisis? Yep.

Saturday we got deservedly beaten.
Last night seems a freak result, it really does.
Shit penalties all round, shit finishing and schoolboy errors.
I expect us to be growling on Saturday teatime
