it was a jokeWhat on earth are you talking about?
it seems that every rival fan already knows the result, just go on twitter or any social media and they'll all tell you that we're guilty. the newspapers too.

There was rumours that Eddy, Walker and KDB were of last summer.
The only player of recent times who was rumoured to be of every summer was Silva. But Silva has always given 100%.
Perhaps these 3 knew inside knew that they were done, knackered and need to step down a level. Did someone at the club make the wrong call and talked them into staying.
I'm not calling these players out they have been fantastic players for the club. Just a thought that the players knew their time was up, which happens to all players. The players know their minds and bodies better than anyone.
I think it's a book balancing thing, they did the sums on our major targets and thought we could get by an extra season and wait for Musiala's contract to run down and Wirtz to have his year in the CL with Leverkusen etc. They got so used to Pep working miracles with this squad they didn't notice he'd already fed the 500 twice.
Yeah if any happy clappers remain now, its safe to say they should be committed ;)As bad as it seems this could be the result that we need because tbh if we flunked a result yesterday we would be rejoicing a shit performance but now we now have to act .

There has been so many occasions on which I have seriously, literally, looked up to the gods and said "why are you so good to me"!
Greatest night, beating Real Madrid 4-0. Then possibly beating Villa to win the league on the last day against Liverpool. And then the classic, L Classico of Premier league goals Aguerooooo!
To come from so low, to so high, has been a unique rollercoaster.
Of whom Sir Pep Guardiola is the father. The greatest manager there has ever been. I'm grateful to him, and I'm grateful to the greatest sporting owner there is, Sheikh Mansour.
Nobody complained when money bought 13 titles out of 18. Farmers league? Nobody complained when Blackburn bought the league. A few people complained when Chelsea bought the league. Few people complain that an in debt club out spends everybody, whilst in 13th. Good look to Chelsea I say. And good look to all, new money and old money clubs who bought success. It's made it the greatest sporting league in the world of sport. The most exciting, nailbiting, enthralling Premier League, made by spending money. But Manchester City is the culmination of Thatcher's Premier league. And in every other respect, the club is run brilliantly, so why would they have bad accountants?
You can only play to the rules in front of you. If the some rules are badly written, as proved in court , that's not our fault.

I wonder why they went for Besiktas groundIf it’s any consolation
Next years Europa league final hosts are Besiktas. A potential return to Istanbul!! No yellow buses required as it’s right on the river !
Of the major stadiums in Istanbul, it is far from the biggest
Maybe infrastructure?

Yes.In hindsight, was the FA Cup Final a sign?
The effort taken to break that record fourth league title in a row was what last season was all about. Once it was achieved the intensity and pressure was off and once you relax after a period of intensity and pressure it’s hard to get it back. And the FA Cup final was only six days later.
This, don’t forget, was also after a tough run in 2021 where we had to come from a similar deficit behind the leaders to what we have now to win the PL title and very nearly winning a treble with the PL, CL and EFL Cup (losing in the CL final). After a gruelling long title run-in in 2022 and we were even 0-2 down on the final day and came back to win. And after winning the PL, CL and FA Cup treble in 2023 (also then the Super Cup and Club World Cup).
No team in English football history has done that much in a four year period, ever. Not Liverpool in the 70s/80s nor United in the 90s/00s.
