Foden on for Pass Back Jack

In terms of playing an opposing team in the Premier League, Sheff Utd’s performance so far is probably the most abject I’ve seen in years.

They might be 0-0 thanks to getting extremely lucky but they’ve done absolutely nothing but hug and grapple us in defence and throw themselves to the ground on the 2-3 occasions they got past the halfway line. I’d be embarrassed. 0% action in our third at one point in the game.

Look at the stats they’re pathetic

If there’s any justice then we’ll smash three or four past them in the second half which will be no more than they deserve.

Somehow they got a standing ovation for parking the bus hahaha. I guess that's what our level has become where teams are extremely happy to just not concede against us

Foden not 100% so depends upon that, get Doku on for sure, especially as they get tired

Ah okay is that why he’s on the bench? Didn’t realise he has a niggle

I’d rip your arm off now for a 1v0 win, suspect we’ll get no favours from the refs.

Someone needs to tell the ref this isn’t a rugby match
The cunts are getting away with murder in their box

If you mute your TV'S you can hear Pep shouting lol

Erling needs to play his game and not get wond up. If they foul him it will be given as one.

They are resorting to pull and wrestling him to the ground

He should have had at least one penalty. One was debatable, the other quite clear.

Fucking come on City

…not sure what you are watching. There were two obvious fouls in the box: one on Haaland and one on Ake. He is letting them manhandle our players all over.

He gave the penalty because it was an egregiously obvious one.

The tackle on Grealish was borderline red and it wasn’t the first poor one from Baldock.

He has been trying to even the matchup and I expect him to continue with that in the second half.

Guess we will agree to disagree. Think the ref has done well
