Hate these cunts let's go cityyyyy

 

[city warrior]

He's not the new anything....he's the same old predictable,selfish,powderpuff,luxury,he always was.

Palmer is twice the player.

Of course, that's why he is our starter, he has countless of international experience, jas won POTY with a small team, has scored 20+ goals in the last 2 seasons...Mahrez is class and has his weaknesses as any player

Ha ha so true - anyone but Liverpool, can't stand them already trying to ref the game. I'm not a violent man but man they really do push my buttons. No injuries is all that matters for us.

Mate, they've had at least one, maybe two games more and for the last 30 minutes of that match didn't touch the ball other than clearing it...

I'm confident of another fantastic season, with LFC leading the chasing pack by some margin, but City being the boss.

 

[bondsman]

Who cares. We always lose a couple early season. It's called squad management

That smacks of arrogance though bud to assume it’s easy to recover dropped points.

 

[SebastianBlue]

Is that all,I want to punch everyone of those cnuts in the throat..

I was trying to be restrained. ;-)

 

[SamBlue]

What do you like about Bernardo's new role? He looks lost there

Didn't look lost to me, pretty much free role and covering much more pitch towards our back, which gives us security in transition when they pressing us. Pulling one of the Liverpool players back so Rodri or Joao can receive a pass and bomb forward with the ball. But hey, I 've learned here during all these years we are all watching the games with different specs on.

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Come on City, better showing is required 2nd half...

 

[I'm Blue]

Find Erling and he will score..

 

[Bluesince1979]

We look as rusty as my wifes knickers

 

[The slaughtered lamb]

We don’t look fit and that’s the biggest problem out there today. We know this is the kind of preseason Pep goes for. Given the length of the season and how we have performed under him we just have to accept it.

That being said there are a few things that still standout:

1. The Grealish/Mahrez wide pairing is fucking woeful. Neither of them can attack the byline and are so predictable. Where Mahrez is concerned, I look at us and think, last season we had 3 players battling for the wide right spot. We have kept the worst of the 3.

2. When Chelsea came calling for Ake, we should have snapped their fucking hands off. The euphoria on here when it was announced he was staying was absolutely baffling. He is nowhere near our level.

3. KDB was looking great in the previous games but all of a sudden looks rusty as fuck.

Don’t agree with any of that mate, and I usually do agree with you. Anyway, let’s go for em this half
