no what I am saying is that Ederson would have been nearer the edge of his box and when John shanked it, Barnes wouldn't have been through on goal.

Your right you know

ok in my honest opinion I believe that Eddie would have helped John from panicing' and for John trying to belt the ball into the stands.

Disagree. Thought the ref was solid and unflappable. Can't remember any bottling incidents. He appears to be the best of the bunch at the moment if the first half of the season was anything to go by.

Thought he was the best ref we’ve had all season who was it anyway welll done.

I don’t agree with the ones stating the first half City were not that good. We’ve seen it plenty this season even when we played Burnley at home for the league. Teams are able to cope physically for about 60 min. Therefore it looks like we are not that good or we look better the second half. I think the moment we are on top physically and bring on one or two subs we slowly and surely destroy the opponent. As we did yesterday.

Credit to Burnley for keeping up so long. The way they and similar teams need to defend and the concentration level to be 100% all the time cost them a lot of energy. Most can’t cope and from than on it’s about us being clever and clinical.

I thought all goals were great (even the one Burnley scored), but the back heel from Gundogan on Aguero was absolutely fantastic. So many backheels serve no purpose. This one however I’d on all fronts. Another 90min of enjoyment in the bag. Let’s keep it going please.

come on it was hit with power and pace, don't think many would have saved it from the position that Bravo was. His error was possibly not coming out and closing Barnes down, but could of been worried about bring him down and getting sent off.

Yes maybe but he just doesn' instill any confidence in me what so ever. If Ederson copped an injury we could really struggle.
For me he's to small to be a good keeper.

Thought he was very good too

Was great when he punished their attempt at time wasting (kicking the ball away and standing in front of the ball for AGES) by letting us have a quick free kick and getting that first goal

Proper moaning wanker isn’t he?

He can fuck off.

All his team does is time waste from the first kick off. Both games against them this season, Burnley haven’t strung three passes together in either game.

Utter caveman football

I was in there around 2pm and only went in for a badge for my hat!. Yeah the metrolink queues looked a nightmare, Alan Turing Way was too and not helped by some fucking idiots getting arrested wielding metal bars near the lights across from the campus.

City or Burnley?

Moaning about his team not being ready, well maybe if Barnes had just fucked off and got into position like a good little shithouse, rather than arguing with the ref, maybe they wouldn't have left a top goalscorer completely unmarked.
