Of all the things Simon Stone has written we can complain about, that article really isn't one of them.

Anything that City-hating cretin writes about us is by definition saturated with rag poison.

I didn't say he was my bestie, I said there was nothing wrong with that article. It gets a bit much where absolutely everything is slated irrespective of content. Save it for the stuff that deserves it maybe?

Nothing wrong? Cue link to

"The Norwegian has warned his players to be ready for City's "pressing" and 'aggression'. They will snap at your ankles and heels and kick you," said the 46-year-old. They will not allow us easy counter-attacking. There will be fouls. No doubt about it because they commit so many players forward and will be stopping us as high as they can."
"In November, Guardiola was given a formal warning by the Football Association for speaking about referee Anthony Taylor before the previous Manchester derby at Etihad Stadium, which City won 3-1"
"Guardiola has previously denied accusations he tells his teams to commit 'tactical fouls' to halt opposition counter-attacks."

You probably will like the 'nice' Hattenstone sewage in the Guardian recommended earlier as well.

"City learned the hard way. They endured 35 years of pain – not winning a single trophy while United swept up everything in front of them. ... they endured prolonged periods of misery in the lower tiers of the Football League and United fans were merciless in skewering their unfortunate local rivals. At Old Trafford a ticker banner was unfurled every other week that catalogued City’s trophy-less spell....Since City have been endowed with Abu Dhabi’s riches it’s become more difficult for United fans to maintain the supercilious grins we’ve been wearing for the past two decades. But we still try. Despite the riches, the new stadium, world class players, record-breaking seasons and being treated to arguably the world’s best manager, City still can’t fill their ground. Every game features empty seats peppered around the Etihad, prompting rival fans to coin “Emptyhad” to encapsulate City’s phantom home support.
