As much as I hate the scousers I wont be upset when they win it and Gabriel, Partey and co celebrate another 2nd.

Agreed.
As much as I dislike their some of their supporters (and I do), their players and their current manager are much harder to dislike than this classless arsenal bunch. It honestly wouldn’t bother me that much if liverpool won it this year.

Saw the two lineups and thought City would really have a go. It never came close to happening.

First half Marmoush and Savinho were basically playing next to each other, until Savinho moved closer to Haaland later in the half.

Couldn't get my head around the lack of balance in our team as the game got going. Nunes getting all that space and no one giving him an option or support.

Gifted goals and a lucky deflection handed the game to them. Hopefully whatever fucking about behind the scenes got Gonzalez and Cambiaso has now been nudged along, and we can try and bed the new signings in to end this season and this freak show world Cup at the end of the season.

According to some on here, we were in control at 1-1.

Don't think so mate. Did you see us in the eighties we could only dream of what we have done under Pep during his tenure in the eighties and nineties. This isn't the bad days.

I did mate the full Monty, home and away. It was wank and I don’t want us going back there.

Watch the goals again and imagine that our defenders did what every other team's defenders do to us...
In other words, CLOSE DOWN THE MAIN WITH THE F***ING BALL!!?!
If we'd had the openings from which they scored their final 4 goals, I doubt we'd have got a clean shot away in any but maybe the last situation.
It's not rocket science - what do they DO in training? Practice running backwards? If so, I can tell you that they're wasting their time, because they've perfected that technique already.
Absolutely sickening to watch the same mistake being made over and over again.
Strange really - you'd think a genius coach would spot a pattern like that?

Exactly this we give the opposition space then they turn side on to open the target Does my head in
 
Why spend all that money on new defenders and not play them, and on Marmoush and bring him off? i think Pep needs to have a reset, at this rate we could lose against Leyton Orient next week

Funny thing is Arse will finish second again. Sky trying desperately to manufacture a title race when its clearly a foregone conclusion.
As for us, the season cant end quickly enough so we can press the reset button.

Got to go and play a moneyspinning tournament giving the players no rest and come back with more injuries yet.
 
Disclaimer: I am making this post simply because I always do and I guess I’m superstitious!
I haven’t seen one nano second of the game, I read about 8 or 9 posts on the match day thread at the beginning.
However I still maintain that the Boys in Blue never gave in. They fought to the end.
Whatever happened on that pitch today I doubt that any one of our players said to themselves‘I’m not going to try’. I doubt that they expected to lose by that many, I doubt that they gave up.
It was a very bad day on the field. Rubbish happens and they will be travelling home tonight feeling depressed.

This sounds bad but that is my hope as, obviously, I am not travelling with them, that that is how they are feeling because if they aren’t then I guess they are not the team I love. I stand with them when they win. I will not disrespect them when they lose. I will just say. You can do so much better Boys in Blue. Please come back and show us.

Shout me down, insult me (or not because you are always kind to me) tell me off for defending them but hopefully you will also acknowledge that I am as gutted as you all are.
Thank you.
Sorry @jimharri … We are MANCHESTER CITY THE BEST TEAM IN THE LAND AND ALL THE WORLD (STILL) :-)

Agree mate, we have a very large soft spot that managers are taking advantage of, however that doesn’t mean they’ve surpassed Pep.
Mistakes have been made, hopefully will be corrected but jettisoning Pep would not be a good decision

I agree, but it also cant be solely down to pep when he does or doesnt go
hes made my dreams come true, i love the guy .. so so much :)
But hes also a massive narcissist whi may not know when to make that call
 
Our club both mens and womens teams have been hit for 9 today by the 'unstables'.
Gutted it's a Sunday night or else the red wine would be opened
 
It's all hard to fathom - no midfielder bought in this window, the 2 disastrous purchases of Phillips and Nunes and the fact we don't have an Academy player ready or trusted enough to be able to do an acceptable holding job in Rodri's absence.

Man I just saw some stats.

Stones and Akanji made 0 tackle attempts and made 0 attempts at ground duels.

Its not that they failed in them, they didnt bother trying.

Stones didnt have battle for the ball aerially once, while Akanji won 2/3 aerial duels.

What in the lord is that, ive never seen CBs who literally just stand still so much when defending.

This!
Also, this going to block shots on a three-quarter turn with your hands behind your back is wank. Who the fuck has coached this into the game? Fuckin woeful display from the pair of them today.
