The Boys in Blue never gave in. They fought to the end. Thank you lads, thank you everyone at City and thank you to the fans, especially those here on BlueMoon.
The cheating, son of an unknown father referee needs to be horse whipped and I don’t believe in violence but.... GGGRRR
Enjoy the rest of your evening fellow Blues. I am going for a calming cup of tea. :-)

I have to say, halfway through that I decided to stop joining in the live match forum because I'm shocked at how many fans do nothing but slag off everything we do wrong. I thought the likes of Neville was bad enough but he's got nothing on some of you lot.
I didn't want to see them out there killing themselves for a nothing game tonight with the league done and the CL final around the corner. Pep already knows who his team is, and let's be honest that was their cup final for the season. So I can take this defeat with ease.
I've always tried to be objective and if the ref and/or VAR is having a bad game I've given them the benefit of the doubt, but it was appalling tonight. Why was the stamp on Jesus not a penalty, yet we get those given against us? I get the ref making a mistake but why is it when one of our players is pulled down in the box it's not even looked at? I thought the whole point of VAR was to put all that sort of thing right, so it clearly doesn't work. Something's wrong, and tonight was a total farce. Even though he scored, Foden was pulled back three times and the player wasn't even spoken to; then he was fouled shortly after the goal. Gundogan's gone off injured but a kick on the knee isn't a red, but a tangle of arms is?
But all that I've come to expect. What I don't expect is so called fans expecting us to play at 100mph twice a week and slagging every player off who makes a mistake. Go try it. Nobody can perform at the top level every single game, and everybody makes mistakes. Given the position we were in 20 years ago I can take the odd poor game, the odd loss here and there, why can't you?

When Danny Mills say it was no red card, a red card on Gundogan and a penalty on Jesus, you know you've been had over!

The only good thing to be taken from this game, is that the Chelsea strategy and tactics lads will be scratching their heads. Nothing at all for them to take from this game.
But perversely, our tactics lads can look at this game to see how we can cope better as 10 men.

He is shiteAll 3 goals in part responsible to Garcia Too slow and poor decision making. Thank fuck he's off in the summer.
Judging by the bt commentary its just you mate, as it was a fantastic challenge by that lovable liverpool legend lalana, and of course.....meant more(dubious reffing).Was it just me or was that a stone cold penalty on Jesus.
watch the second half againWTF !!!!!!! ??????
early on we had a throw in deep into their half
the flag went up straight away as soon as silva got the ball
i couldnt see any contact between silva or the defender so it must have been a foul
maybe i have to watch it again if i can be arsed
