Would have taken that result before kick off, slight pity that we didn’t add another couple second half but difficult when you aren’t getting stone wall penalties.

Thought Sterling was a bit better tonight but his first touch is a bit rough and some decision making poor, he should have squared to Mahrez at start of second half.

Midfield 3 so good that we are not missing Kev or Dinho which is a massive compliment.

Thought Jesus was very good, his all round play showed signs of him regaining his confidence.

Defence immaculate again.

In summary another performance to demoralise any watching Rags and Dippers.

Agree with all bar sterling who I thought was a tiny tiny tiny bit better than of late

 

[WickyWain]

That chest lay off from Gundogan made me wee a little.

Great team performance again, easyyyy.

 

[deano ou812]

In two hours we’ll probably be talking about a blatant Salah dive being given as a pen and VAR turning a blind eye to it

Exactly,my only thinking for it not being given as for the hope Burnley could grab a goal to put the game in the balance so to speak if we were 3-0 up it would have been given ..

 

[Rammy Blue]

Sterling was beyond useless.

 

[Brad mcfc]

Mmm, are you interested that he scored or not?

Lucky he did, he would've got slated even more, good job he scored the tap in. World class.

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

Jake humphries saying people on social media are saying it’s boring because we’re so good the despicable rat is hurting big time!

To be fair he was the most complimentary I’ve ever seen about us at half-time and at the end, absolutely gushing. He also rubbished the social media guff.

 

[Rammy Blue]

Jesus will never be the main man, regardless of getting a goal he‘s just not a striker.

Sergio would be having a field day in this side at the moment, if he was fit.

 

[lancs blue]

Some unpleasant posts regards Sterling. He has been one of our best players over the last few seasons, simply having a temporary dip in form,thats all. It's a team game, we are top of the league, so by definition currently the best team . City supporters should support the team.

Set up Bernardo for the shot that was parried for the first and got into position to get on the end of a good team move. Clearly shit...

 

[WesthoughtonJohn]

Apart from the entire defence behind him then, yes, he possibly was the last man..

I rather like the hypocrisy of:
"I can't remember a team having such a purple patch with big decisions"
Doesn't remember those decisions under Whiskey Nose then lol
(Pretty annoyed at the reporting on ITV this evening btw - total wank fest over them lot scoring 9. No mention of our 2 games in hand)

 

[waspish]

Comfortable win Burnley never had a shot on target another clean sheet and 3 points.

 

[Blueboy73]

He started by saying that it was 'incidental contact' in making the challenge, then realised what he'd said before changing to 'well there was contact, but the VAR official obviously (subjectively) decided it wasn't a 'clear and obvious error'.

Peter Crouch did well not to burst out laughing after listening to Walton's bullshit.
I can't believe this buffoon is paid to give an expert opinion.
He's on a hat trick now after his explanation of our first against Villa.

 

[fareastblue]

Sterling was beyond useless.

Maybe but his tap in stopped me from taking xanax

 

[Chi-town blues]

Your browsing history must be VERY interesting!

I wonder how many seconds they spent on drawing lines on mahrez goal vs gabby ’s clear pk .

 

[remember arthur mann]

After the bullshit they got away with yesterday?

Played the ball and the man. It wasn't a dangerous challenge, there was no injury, and he definitely wasn't the last man as both Stones and Dias were back in the 18 yd box.

rags, these are the fans who think their team playing a side with 9 First team players out, who go down to nine men, have hit top form, ffs !

I'm guessing the mods have outlawed irony over there. The mods on here are a much better class of person, definitely.



Most of them, anyway.

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

I can't grasp how an arm can be used, in the upper shirt sleeve area, as a part of Mahrez's body to judge offside, when if the ball hits the same location and goes in the goal it would be handball!

Can anyone explain, am I completely missing something that's recently been introduced?

They have to, because he's onside otherwise. It's a shit rule. One player got called offside because he was pointing to
where he wanted the ball played. Bloody ridiculous. VAR was supposedly bought in to stop shit decision deciding matches and now it's a 100 times worse.

 

[BillCarlisle]

the laughable pens last night,then this evening a stonewall one not given,doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know what’s going on ..

Laughable being the correct term.
How can anyone justify that the Martial incident warranted a penalty (AND a red card) whilst Atkinson wasn't even instructed to go to the monitor ?
They seriously expect us to believe that the officials are impartial. Don't insult our intelligence.

Ha, yeah. Dont get me wrong, I want him to get back to where he was, I’ve no idea what’s happened to him but he’s bloody awful, painful to watch.

Our mods are posh . They get caviar dinner with ric ;)
