Will never grow bored watching this.

Amazing drama,....what a Club......what a set of fans.

Cheers Sid enjoyed that again

Cos Arlo is taking over from Martin Tyler (??) Please.

Tyler still has 1 year left on his Sky contract. Arlo White is covering MLS games next season.

I loved this goal at Southampton almost as much as 93.20. Till the Villa match it was the most hysterical celebration I had ever seen from Pep. It was proper history in the making because no team will ever again achieve 100 points. It is a record that will stand for ever.. and another sublime assist from KDB.

That was another surreal moment from City. The precision of the pass from Kevin DeBruyne and the way Gabriel Jesus controlled the ball before lobbing the keeper was a perfect ending to the season and just like against QPR came with almost the very last kick. For a club with " no history " City supporters have been honoured to see some amazing, iconic moments.

Also last kick of the season against Southampton, when Gabriel Jesus scored for the first ever 100 points season.

I forgot to add the Vincent Kompany's goal against Leicester. That too was brilliant " No Vinnie, don't shoot."

Vincent Kompany's goal against Leicester too. We have been blessed with iconic moments as City supporters.

Just watching the last 35 mins, AGAIN, and one thing is very clear, Gary Ratboy’s contribution was basically a number of oohs and OGS and a bloody hell, as well as not being able to count to 3 (subs). He has no great tactical knowledge, and is frankly speaking a useless fucking ****

edit there was a 2 min stoppage in injury time, yet Michelle only added on 25 seconds, usually works against us but how fucking hard is it to tell the time

Ah, but he can be slightly forgiven for uttering the line, "Ilkay Gundogan, you little dancer", after the 3rd goal.

I wonder what was going on inside his mind when he mentioned that.

Really strange comment to come out with.

Maybe he’d got lucky the night before and he was still full of the joys of spring .

No he can’t, just one **** taking the piss out of smother ****, neither of whom have any relevance to us. It sounded just as daft as when the other **** said it

I think it was a little piss take with screech when he said the same about salah last season or season before when he scored a last minute winner.

Taking the piss out of Carragher who squealed "Mo Salah you little dancer" when the Egyptian Tom Daley scored a last minute winner against Spurs in 2019.

Villa fans are proper weirdos, they are very bitter. Compare them to West Ham fans a few years ago and there is no comparison.

I was cursing during the West Ham game, dreading that the dropped points might cost City. It all worked out in the end though. West Ham qualified for Europe in Mark Noble's last home game. Pep gave him a big hug at the end and the comeback helped City recover in the game against Villa. Championees!

 

[laplandblue]

Maybe taking their best players has upset them ;)

That's another thing that is hypocritical from supporters. They are only too happy to take players from other clubs, when those players think the move will improve their career prospects. They would more than likely do the same themselves. Same with the money. They would be quite happy if they had the luck City got.

 

[AliBobbyJ]

I can’t stop watching this.....



It sounds like it might be the audio commentary off the official site on the day. The noise when that 3rd goal goes in!

Just noticed at the umpteenth time of watching, isn't that Pete the Blue in the crowd celebrating Rodri's goal just before 78.00?

Yeah I think so…don’t think I will ever tire of seeing this.. so plenty of opportunities to check!

And his header against the rags...

A high percentage of football fans are biased idiots with no sense of proportion whatsoever. That's why football is a bit like pantomime. Boooooo. Hissssss. The 50/50 decision should have been give our way. No it should have been given our way. That ref is on your side. Oh no he isn't. Hissss. Boooo. He's behind you.

I saw a quote from a Liverpool fan yesterday, totally matter of fact, totally unchallenged by anyone. He said "Mo Salah is one of the biggest heros the Kop has ever had. But if he leave this summer he becomes the biggest mercenary traitor in the history of the club".

If he leave he just wants to leave you moron. There could be many different reasons why that is. I like to think that at City much of our fanbase is a lot more balanced than most other clubs. In the main we have accepted that players come and players go for their own reasons - ambition, location, game time, family etc and they don't suddenly need to become public enemy number one for having the temerity to change clubs.

Just wondering if 80:46 will become as iconic a timestamp as 93:20 has become? Probably not, given the latter was the first.

That's a great analogy. I had never thought of it like that. Football is very much like a pantomime.
