Maybe others need an eye test before reading posts in context

I did actually delete my post, but clearly not quickly enough. From memory, though, didn't Havertz have two shots saved by Ortega in the first half?

Course the should celebrate but to celebrate like City did when they beat United and Inter is fook embarrassing tbh considering they are supposed to be a giant of the game

It wasn't that mental, and tbh when we won the champions league our celebrations weren't exactly mental.

 

[Gingers Dad]

I honestly don’t see what’s wrong with that? They hadn’t beat us in about 14 games prior to today. Of course it will be a psychological boost to arsenal. So much of elite sport is won inside the head and any boost no matter how small will be used by any half decent manager,

Thought the psychological boost was ours. We cut through them quite easily when we tried. They knew we were a couple of weeks behind them in fitness but couldn't take advantage. They scored a proper flukey goal in injury time. They've spent big in the summer with no outgoings and nothings changed. Still waving their arms about to get the fans worked up. They are the complete opposite of mentality monsters.

I bet the in match thread was in a frenzied state earlier; )

Fuck me, the atmosphere in the City end was shite.

At least I was there trying to support the team, will leave it at that.

U should of done more as it sounded shit on tv.

 

[Pedestrian]

Thought we looked very good. Just missing foden/kev behind haaland.

Agree. Foden should have started though.

 

[lloydie]

Was not expecting to really give a hoot either way about today, but the renewed tw*tishness of Captain Black, the same old same old with their snide stuffiness and the shameless grovelling from itv has kick started my hatred for the lot of them a week early.

The season starts.

Meh

Thank fuck we’ve landed gvardiol because I have no idea how we managed a treble giving games to akanji at lb. Highly competent player but exposed at least once a game by a decent winger and he was massacred at lb today.

Kudos to them for stealing that. Aside from a 15 min spell in first half we were far better despite them trying at a much higher intensity than us.

Delighted for Cole Palmer getting that goal. Really needed that.

Don’t mock them for celebrating it’s raggish and most of us would have been delighted to have won today.

On the whole they showed everything they have today and it’s very good, better than last year. But it won’t be enough.

No you didn't

 

[Lavinda Past]

Why, what makes you think we will suddenly play better on Friday? Burnley back in training for a month a lot fitter. Lack of creativity, Haaland starved of service. Blinkered.

Cardiff City away 2013/14... Never take promoted teams for granted.

Vinny will have Burnley chomping at the bit for this one.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Tbh they did beat the champions of Europe and champions of England, I don't blame them for celebrating what do you expect them to do not celebrate too much lol?

Yeah, sooner they celebrate that than the games at The Emirates and The Etihad last season!

 

[Norbert D]

I day when the football gods were not on our side. Thankfully, when we really needed them, they were there for us.

Exactly.

 

[dctid]

Back to calling you a div then.

I can live with that

 

[Man_City_Loyal]

disappointing to lose any game, but fuck em.
