On the bbc

Adam: I don't think the end of this season can come any quicker for City. They are ahead, but look tired and are lacking confidence.

People did watch us handle Real Madrid for 179 minutes right? It was a fluke, a fucking mental 2 minutes. We didn't get battered, we outplayed them. But shit happens in cup football.

Saw that, a ridiculous comment but then there are a few on here to rival it

KDB playing some brilliant football.

Robbie Mustoe: City, as we know aren't great defensively.

City: Have best defensive record in the league.

Pundits are awesome.

Tyler "Wednesday night ......... Wednesday night.....Liverpool..........Liverpool".

Getting tedious now.

The real Trophy.... majority of fans would take every season if they had to choose one, is all that matters now. Becoming back to back Champions for the second time in 5 Years.

Someone needs to remind Tyler Liverpool could still potentially finish the season with just the Carabao Cup.

Finishing Champions League as Semi finalists is hardly failure from a financial perspective.

Gundo’s played really well. Also it looks like Fern is coming on. Was Rodri injured?

 

[wolviedinho]

Eh? They've had one shot. We're quietly playing them off the park.

We looked prior to the second goal a bit ropey in defence. Newcastle had 2 decent chances. Our defence has not looked as solid this season due to Dias and stones not been able to form their partnership.

Right, let's come out 2nd half and be on the ball straight away...don't need that Liverpool H and Madrid away 1st minute of the 2nd half shit again

Bit of stick on here for Grealish.
He’s been excellent

He’s been steady but excellent is stretching it, he should be giving every ounce between now and the end of the season!

 

[coolcity]

Really? I think he's worked hard. Tracked back when needed and some tidy passes up front. I wish he'd take more risks but anyone complaining about his performance so far are just looking for issues that aren't there.

Spot on. Nothing wrong with Grealish at all, just needs to be a bit braver and more confident.
