Respectful? He told Pep and Txiki he wasn’t leaving City and then met with Arsenal in secret at 2am at his house… only thing was, there were paparazzi there and the press broke the news the next day and that was the first Pep and Txiki had heard about it and they were supposedly furious.

And his touchline antics are pathetic. Kicking the ball away from the opposition, running at players in his technical area who are running up the wing with the ball to put them off, running after the fourth official all the time (yet rarely booked for it, especially compared to Pep), telling his players (usually the keeper) to fake injuries so he can have a time out on the touchline while he gets treatment, has his players running after the ref all the time, has his players holding their heads and faces all the time (often when not touched in the head or face), has his players diving like I’ve never seen from a team in the Prem before, has his players rolling around pretending to be injured when it’s them who have given a free kick away, has his players wasting time to an unbelievable degree so Arsenal games have all this added time at the end (50 seconds to take a corner, 30 seconds to take a throw-in, over a minute to take a goal kick)…

Arteta is a petulant little woman and this Arsenal team are the biggest bunch of cheating and timewasting bastards I’ve ever seen in English football and it all comes from Arteta.

de Bruyne knows

And breathe!
 
Don't know whether it is folks taking the piss, unrealistic expectations or people not actually knowing very much about football but our Erling has a couple of average games and suddenly he 'couldn't hit a cows arse with s banjo,' etc, etc...
8 goals(I think ,without checking) in the Premier League so far this season by early October. All I can say is 'being out those cows arses and those banjos'!!
 
Hopefully, Jack plays and actually tries to beat a man and get a shot off, rather than gaining 30 yards to then pass it backwards 40. Bring Doku on later, when they're tiring. Hope Lewis plays, they'd probably target him but he's good enough to take them on.

The fact he’s scored 8 league goals already doesn’t really prove much in his case regarding his performances and finishing.

Too many of our top players missing and too many not hit the ground running yet. Added to that is Haaland couldn't hit your wife's arse from 5 yards. Arsenal on a high after humiliating us in the Charity Shield and finally putting that 'cant beat City' ghost to bed.

I'd take 1-1 right now and move on.....

Humiliating us? Did I miss something? We ALWAYS go into the The Community Shield undercooked. I was expecting to lose. Instead we outplayed them and they needed a fluke deflection in the last minute to draw. The penalties were a bit shit, but it was hardly the end of the world. Like most City fans I chuckled at the MSM and Arsenal creaming themselves after the game at winning a friendly luckily on penalties. If that’s humiliating then yes, we were humiliated.

Pointless diversion tactics. There isn’t a striker in the world ever that doesn’t have lean spells. It only becomes an issue if they hide. I see no evidence of that from Erling. If he misses 5 chances he still makes the same runs and keeps going. That’s what makes him special imho. He seems mentally strong.
