Not surprising at all, pretty standard affair for when both we and the rags win, almost as if maximising their sixth place greatness (read: mediocrity) by minimising our accomplishments.
Old Trafford is a fucking library, but no, "eerily quiet" in the Etihad. All over them in an unmitigated onslaught for the first half, better not show that and focus on attempting to corroborate the ridiculous sour grapes of Clement. 70% possession for City overall, let's ignore that and isolate the less polarising figure from the second half. Mike Dean handing out cards to City like it's Christmas while offering no protection when Swansea players repeatedly offend, let's selectively show footage to lead you to think the ref favoured City.
This doesn't happen for other clubs.
It doesn't happen to the other clubs in the title chase. We are expected to believe that CFC, Haringey Hotspurs, The Swamp Donkeys, and the Dippers have every tackle and challenge timed to perfection, such is the absence of straight red cards for serious foul play, and the lack of yellows where the likes of any ref turning up at The Etihad this season appeared to have yellow coloured confetti stuffed in each pocket. Every club's fans moan about the bias directed at their team, but let's see some of the outcomes re red and yellow cards that deprive us of our players, and a video of the top six clubs of two footed lunges that have escaped any sanction, or been 'downgraded' to yellow, or given a straight red! Such a video would never get aired, certainly on the sports channels.
