The negativity … ‘great’ City fans. Spoiled to the bone.

Lots of graft no cutting edge.
And why did Eddie decide to boot the ball (out of play)? From that moment on we relinquished controlling the last few minutes to gifting them to Palace.

Was Bernado not fouled in the run up to the penalty? Looked like he was pulled back from where I was sat.
We are soft as shit in the final stages of the game. Clear to see this season.
Mentality questionable.
Tiredness and fatigue? Should subs be coming in 20/15 mins from time? Maybe. But we don't have enough quality on the bench.
Feels we've fallen a long way from last season.
the only way is down from last season sadly

Don't be condescending mate I’ve been going to City for over fifty years. You need to get a bit of perspective you can't win them all and before you say it we've not been great for the last month or so. Give Pep a bit of slack or is that beyond you. Stop being entitled.If you don't understand the concept of a post-match thread then it might be your head that needs a wobble.
It's not about the treble last season, the domestic treble in 2019 or 100 points in 2018. - We threw away two points today, and the match was played today.

And if you're saying we're definitely going to challenge for the Premier League title then you're not watching City properly.If you’re saying the season is over, you haven’t learned a thing.
I'm still hopeful that we'll compete for the European Cup, as over a 2 legged game, it'll take a fantastic team to beat us. But, I just don’t see that desire to win consistently enough to win another Premier league title.

Pep fuming. Mainly, I think, with Foden.
Did he miss the chance he had to bring on Stones at 2-1, asking for a friend.
Firstly we will still win the title, with KDB back and Stones hopefully coming back into the team we will look completely different.
Personally I would shake things up slightly, which Pep is known to do.
For me I’d throw Ortega in goal for a period of time. I feel he deserves it and is a better shot stopper than Ederson.
Walker has to be rested at rb - he’s like a square peg in a round hole with the way we are currently playing. He needs to be a defensive rb and form part of a 3 at the back when we are attacking.
I’d throw Rico in again and let him do what he did so well last season.
Stones to play instead of Dias - I love Dias but he’s in poor form. He adds nothing to the build up and is rash when defending atm.
Bernardo for me is wasted as a rw, he got the ball so many times today in threatening positions but just didn’t have the final killer ball or shot. Fodens naivety with the pen proves he should be RW where he is much more of a threat. Get Bernardo back at cm and see our control improve immeasurably.
I’d also start Nunes - he has a huge amount of energy and adds something different. Replace with KDB when back fit.
But the main thing is getting a shape the players are comfortable with. Playing more form players and then building a couple up for the business end of the season.
Ortega
Rico
Stones
Akanji
Ake
Rodri
Bernardo
Nunes
Foden
Grealish
Haaland.
Onwards and upwards. We have been fairly shite all season but are in touching distance. When we click like we do every march onwards when it’s game over for the others.

Idiot.Who tf are you?
I'm assuming a rags fan as I've no idea why a City fan would be digging out one of today's goal scorers (who's actually scored three goals in his last three PL games) for this result. Because that's just ridiculous. If your girlfriend wants to shag Grealish, feel sorry for her that it'll never happen and she's stuck with you, but give a swerve to the stupid football takes.
I know Bernie is of slight build, but I don't think his arms are that thin!Thats clutching at straws.

Agreed, we should talk about player recruitment.We spent 145m on our midfield, and 80m on a defender. People talking about penny pinching and tight purses need to wise up.
