Rodri needs benching at HT as a punishment.

Doesnt mean that one player played well all season , it is a team game

 

[roy.or.r]

Stones is immaculate.

 

[Blu1]

Pep might be best to take Rodri off before he gets a red

What I find strange though is that Jack is capable of these sorts of take-ons, but seems to be asked not to do them so much for us.

 

[Chi-town blues]

lovely footie

 

[TrentGrisham]

Love how the Etihad still applauds Doku when his take-on attempts don't come off. The last thing we need is him overthinking and losing what makes him special.

Sorry but if this was Grealish not running at Milner we'd not hear the end of it..

 

[wolviedinho]

Brighton are no mugs. City playing well here.

 

[DMA's]

Brighton are playing into our hands, but nevertheless this has been an outstanding half.

Can’t help but think their manager is trying to impress pep with his set up. Was never going to work as we clearly have much better players, perhaps the charm offensive from pep pre match worked!

 

[pudge]

That was the ref being a dickhead.

He booted the ball away, yellow card

Take the blinkers off

 

[jimharri]

Rodri has to wise up. That was a silly yellow card. Yes, you could say it's petty by the ref. But kicking the ball away is a booking more often than not nowadays. After the red card against Forest, you would hope he learned his lesson.

Dosent mean we rubbish the player who contributed to arguably our greatest season 3 months later.

 

[TrentGrisham]

Yeah! Booooo! He’s shit! Boooooo!




Fuck off.

Huh? I'm being sincere.

Teams that play a similar style to us but with lower quality players are basically our perfect opponents. Bournemouth back in the day were similar. Played lovely football that beat a lot of teams, and always got hammered by us.

I honestly thought he was lifting the ball back to the keeper.

 

[Keeper!]

The boys are back

Causing havoc

Fired up and roaring

Tearing the little yodder a new arse hole

Wonderful first 45 mins

He was giving the ball back for the offside, Brighton didn't complain as the needed a breather.

Your right but we just want to see this rule applied to all teams,certain teams the ref wouldn’t even give it a second thought..

 

[jimharri]

Been relatively comfortable so far. But we need to be "on it" against this lot. One goal back for Brighton, and it gets nervy.
