I know my point of view might seem petty and it was only a short break but people's religious and political views should be kept out of football. There's plenty of shit going on in the world and watching the game is a form of escapism for me so keep the aforementioned topics out of the game.

Is a one minute break for the health and safety of the players involved really bringing religion and politics into the game or is it just the bare minimum of being accommodating, for their sake, for the clubs sake.

Did watching that really take you away from football, I just don’t understand your PoV at all. It’s not like they’re preaching in that minute is it, they’re just scranning drinking various liquids and semi solids.

The only ones causing a stir, or a conversation about politics and religion are the Leeds fans. No story unless they boo.
 
I wonder when we will hear of Rodris punishment for speaking up. Why is it taking so long? Is it likely he will get a fine or a ban? Let's hope its a fine.

They did seem to boo right away when the ref blew, so would depend how quickly it went up on the screen and how many read it (considering it’s Yorkshire maybe some couldn’t).

I’m sure a blue in the ground will be able to give a better observation.

I know, We get much longer VAR breaks.

Should be a fine.
If it’s a ban and just before any of the Arsenal games, then it’s the final nail in the coffin for the league being bent.
 
Bit of a dicey opening 15 mins then a period of not great quality, especially up front. We got the goal though and dominated, with them having a couple of little periods of pressure in the 2nd half. However, that's a great win for us and a most welcome 3pts.

It benefited us winning the game. It was our lads that needed the break and two of them made the goal for us.

Savinho I thought was decent and useful the last 15 minutes including added time.

How, didn't touch the ball for 10 minutes and wasn't closing down.

When he came on I thought, he may hug the line and give them somthing to worry about, but he didn't.

Hopefully Erl is back Wednesday to keep defences busy and defend for us, I'm sorry but Sav does none of those things.

Anyway, move on and enjoy the win and the improving performances of others (Nico, Rodri, Cherki, Nunes, Nouri).
 
Did anybody notice the music package at the end of our match on sky sports the one played over a brief highlights of this evenings game they played a german dance song with lyrics in german obviously they hoped to play that over a leeds victory no doubt with numerous shots of Daniel Farke smiling and celebrating, but obviously us winning was a shock to them they didn’t even bother to switch the music package, they aren’t even trying to hide they’re hope Arsenal win this title, absolutely disgraceful.

Beyond pathetic, this. Truly.

I'm not a doubter of his, cracking player and has been great for us. I wouldn't say he was immense today though. If you were new to City you'd think Guehi had been here a few years and Dias was bedding in.

Fair point mate. Guehi outstanding as expected, what a footballer. For me though, Dias been on the wrong end of a lot of unfair criticism recently and I thought he was excellent today, gave everything and don’t think he was second best to anything

The notice was very clear, the Leeds fans booed because they perceived it was for “City’s benefit” ….if the stoppage was for Pep to save the life of a fluffy kitten they'd still have booed - it’s just tribal football bollocks - not worth City fans falling out about it in my view. More importantly - what a great win.
