When I used to ref on Wythenshawe Park everyone of those throw ins by the Leeds player would have been a foul throw. Both hands with the ball have to be behind the head or is that another rule change.?

Has anyone seen a worse team at the Etihad in recent years? Really trying to think, even when we have given teams a real thumping I thought they showed a bit more spirit. I'd be fucking fuming if my team conceded an easy cut back twice in ten minutes. And so much for the famed Big Sam organization, their shape was dreadful. And this was without arguably 5 of our first 11. Just wish the scoreline had reflected our dominance.

They are shit. Miracle if they survive.

They are shit. Miracle if they survive.

Yeah, the old cliche of there being three worse teams is categorically not true in this case.

Just got in. An absolute throwback to the typical City of old today, the only difference being was we won.

Two great strikes from Gundo, we were in absolute cruise control but you always sensed if we didn't score a third there was a twist in the tale and so it proved. There were a couple of nervy moments just after Gundo scored the second. Then near the end their long ball was causing a bit of panic. Soft goal to concede, the defence and Akanji in particular has to do better. Haaland channeled his inner Darwin Nunez today and Phil missed a couple. Still three points is all that matters. On paper we've won our easiest three of the run in and put the pressure firmly on Arsenal. Come on you Geordies!

On the bus outside the ground after the game I noticed there was a bit of fisticuffs, the police leading some people away.

There was lots of lard in stone Island in their end. They only came to Maine Road once in 1992 because they had to. We used to have half of Elland Road in the seventies.

You cant act like that haalaand was arrogant there no easy games we got lucky today he should of taken the pen.We cant also be playing like that in the second half why do we always do this? madrid would punish us and brighton also we got lucky last week and this week

I doubt if there will be any game during the rest of this season where one team gives their opponents the biggest statistical battering as Leeds got today - 81% possession, 16 shots to 2, two off the woodwork. If it's luck then Leeds had the lion's share of any going this afternoon.

They are deliberately making us sweat ;-)

Frustrating that they didn’t make it 3-0 long before the end of the game but a very vital 3 points with several key players rested.

We did indeed and we used to knock fuck out of the cunts when they charged at us from all angles when we were queing up to get in . Absolute horrible place .

Just got in. Hard watch that but, hey ho, 3 more points.

Leeds are seriously shit. Relegation fodder.
