Media bias against City

[Monkfish]

Fucking Danny Mills makes me wanna kill myself. What a dour human being he is, stole a living from our club too, can't stand him.

Punishment from God for not buying a ticket

Haha skint at the moment mate, plus I don't like Champions League nights at home, hate the atmosphere.

Must admit wish I was there though, I'd pay the 35 quid now just to shut Mills up.

Probably not the time for it after a great win but this report by the BBC's Chris Bevan is proper anti-City media shite.

You will have to highlight the parts that the writer got wrong.I thought he got it pretty much spot on.

Yeh I read that and thought the same, the usual digs about money spent and saying our £70m CBs had bad games.

Depressingly used to it by now though.

The money jibe is so worn out now, you would've thought they would have got bored of it after 7 years.

Must admit, tonight Mills and Darke had me thinking about attending champions league games for the first time in a couple of years.

It's not so much the bits he got wrong, he's entitled to his opinion, but the overall tone of the report.

"often caught wide open at the back"...OK

"Pellegrini will be looking for a big improvement in his defence."...well yes, that's kind of the same point.

"Defensive uncertainty...The first-half touchmaps of City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne (left) and left-back Bacary Sagna show how far they were pushing forward and leaving space at the back"...you're labouring the point now.

"City had won their previous two home games 6-1 and 5-1, but not without looking wide open at the back at times in both matches, and that vulnerability continued here."...For fucks sake.

He then goes on to rip the piss out of Mangala, Otamendi, Zaba and Sagna and tops it off by having a go at Bony for good measure.

I don't think it was anything like that bad against what was very useful opposition. In fact there were times tonight were I thought we showed signs of getting it in this competition. Playing a cagey game against a good team instead of showing the naivety that has been apparent against the likes of Juve. I've been critical of the defence, especially against the geordies but tonight was a world away from that.

So overall he was spot on.However and I said this before in the match thread,the fucking midfield need to do their job,thats why the defence always looks so shaky.But lets be fair,Bony was worse than a dogs turd.
