Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Bournemouth (02/11/25)

Bernardo gets some unfair stick in my opinion, despite everything, but he's so good in this role. Just does all of the dirty work for the team, happy to get the ball wherever, knows when to slow us down.

Him and Gonzalez make playing Foden and Cherki together work.

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

In the stadium any idea why the players went to the centre circle as if to do a minutes silence, stood there for 30 secs the it all got cancelled?

Presumably forgot there's another home game before remembrance Sunday given everyone else has done a minute's silence all weekend.

 

[heslops barnet]

We always start great in the second half don’t we?

 

[TinFoilHat]

Just waiting for the club to be charged as 50,000 city fans hurt Alty's feelings by singing a song about him.

 

[lonestay]

Well on close replay there's the arm hooked around Donna's arm for the pull to put him off balance .

 

[deano ou812]

Get an early third hopefully and take the game out of Taylor’s hands ..

 

[Blue Llama]

Neither, I'd have both against the dippers next week if Rodri is fully fit.

12 players on the pitch??

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

I can excuse The Don that one mistake..

Was his mistake being held by David Brooks?

 

[Gazza]

It's not just because he lives about 3 mile from OT it's the fact that he refs us like he lives about 3 miles from OT.

Weird how bluemoon was played on the tannoy but the screens where blacked put while it was played

No, Rodri for Bernardo.

 

[Allnightlong]

I can see a red for donnarumma later. Second yellow for time wasting.

 

[Longballutd]

He's been excellent today, and in midweek. If he can stay fit, we have a potentially special player on our hands.

100% he makes it look easy

Not enough for him to flap like that.

 

[TinFoilHat]

10 minute VAR check to try and disallow it.

 

[CambridgeExileBlue]

One of the best games this season. Nico G, Cherki and the Viking have been brilliant. I thought O'Reilly was excellent as well.

Shame O’Reilly missed his chance. Would have done him a world of good.

 

[1961_vintage]

Taylor doesn't even hide his bias.

He fucking hates us. But he's also very clever with it.

 

[give it to gordon]

Well on close replay there's the arm hooked around Donna's arm for the pull to put him off balance .

Clearly held which meant he couldn't make proper contact with the ball

He’s had one of the best passes in the game, long to O’Reilly, but also two of the worst blind passes to opponents, Khusanovs if you will.

 

[TFC]

Quick mention for Nico too, quietly fucking superb so far
