Burnley - Post match thread

Meanwhile rags benefit from dubious sensing off and an offside goal

Not just offside. 3 men yards offside.

SWP how is the fourth official gonna have a better view than the ref to make a decision? The ref is the ref he makes his own decisions on what he sees at the time .

The same old same old is back for the Rags. Need a leg up? Struggling a little with eleven v eleven? Here yer go - how about a sending off and another offside goal? Has Rojo or any other Rag got away with another Ferny tackle?

 

[MadchesterCity]

Well done to the players today, a spirited performance against 14 men once again

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

What a game. Things I learned...

Nacho just isn't good enough yet.
Kolarov is much better in the middle
Kdb can have poor games and still be good enough
How much the fans love zabba
John stones is an awfully nice chap
The referee is most definately a wanker
That Navas is finished as a city player. Sad.

8/10 but only cos it was Burnley

We were genuinely dire first half and not much anyone can say, but fair play to Pep for the subs and set up in the second half. It definitely worked and we got the deserved win.

Have to say I'm worried about our lack of depth in midfield with Fernandinho and Gundogan both out. We need 2-3 players in Jan but suspect we will end up with 1.

On Bravo the guy is an absolute liability. Why we signed him I just don't see any particular strength or characteristic that makes him good for our team.

 

[cleavers]

Over to you Slaven!

Didn't you mean Mike Dean ?

 

[sir baconface]

In his interview I think Pep stated that rules in the PL are interpreted differently than anywhere else in the World.
He could have said that in the same game the rules are interpreted differently for City and the opposing team but he would have been taken to task for that.

I wonder if he could still have problems if the FA take exception to his global comparison of their rule interpretation ?

Just the right side of the line, I believe. He played it cunning, which is no mean feat in a language other than your mother tongue. Watch the shite pundits and press hyenas start circling now though.

 

[jimharri]

Is Fernandinho going to serve a 4 game suspension just like Aguero did?

Yep.

 

[Corky]

Is Fernandinho going to serve a 4 game suspension just like Aguero did?

Everton away, Spurs home and two FA cup games or Swansea - could be a season killer.

Anyone seen Sagna's Instagram post? Very funny [emoji23] 10 vs 12

Well, knock me down with a fcukin feather.

Not seen this but had enough of the two Rojo non-reds and all the wanking over an offside goal.

Savage about to come on the radio again. Not sure whether to risk a coronary by listening to the Hollywood toothed, fcukwitted Barbie doll.

 

[crazyg]

Has anyone mentioned yet that we have 42 points?

WE'RE SAFE FROM RELEGATION!!

I think today showed that Lee Mason is quickly catching up in the bent referee stakes with Anthony Taylor. Who'd have thought that two referees from Greater Manchester, supporting different teams, could have given such an "inspired" performance to earn Man of the Match awards, for the opposition, on their visits to the Etihad. The only problem for Mason is that he won't pick up his brown envelope, sorry, MOTM award, from Mike Riley as City won.

I really do think that it's getting more blatant every match. It's not even subtle anymore.

He will be fined for that and retrospective action taken for his kick after Sky spend the next 3 days going on and on and on about it whilst ignoring the injustices at West Ham today.

Just watch!

 

[SWP's back]

Because I have a fucking opinion and I'm entitled to post it on here

That's not what she said.

Your opinion always has a downer in it. It's why you stand out. That may be a good or a bad thing.

Don't bother he was already sticking the knife in at HT in the WHU v united game.

 

[MadchesterCity]

I wonder what our breaking point is when it comes to actually reacting to the blatant corruption? What will it take?

For anything to me done a mass walkout must occur

 

[come-on-barney]

Just seen Pep's interview on the city website - yes it's always city's fault. Really calling into question refereeing in this country. Looks even more pissed than in the bbc interview. Tapping his fingers on the table and a very awkward atmosphere. He's fed up of the bias no doubt about it.

On it's own not so much, but without Gundogan it's going to handcuff Pep a lot on squad choice.

I like Fernando, and he's been playing a lot better when on this year, but he can't perform on Dinho's level and those are some desperately tough fixtures against pacey sides.

Think he got booked for that incident , but could be wrong
