Big Sam used to go mad at his players if they had a long range shot as chances are it will not yield a goal put concede possession and lose pressue/momentum.
To some extent they are right. We don't waste possession and give it back to the opposition by taking desperate low percentage potshots from 35 yards. How many of the long range screamers that used to happen had more than even 3 passes in the build up?
That's not to say we haven't scored some belters. De Bruyne v Real Madrid and Rodri v Bayern come to mind from just last season.
But you wouldn't have lower division goals like this without City. This is 100% our influence.
Give me a tap in like that any day!
There were dippers a few years ago claiming that goals from outside the area should count double.Careful, that's heading down the if only left footed shots from outsid the area are counted Rashford is the best player in the world tunnel.

The trick is to change your perspective.From the article:
“Just a year after the club's first major triumph of the Abu Dhabi United ownership - the 2012 acquisition of their first Premier League title.”
Not a win, or a victory, or a success, but an “acquisition”!
Must be that “dirty Arab oil money” BUYING shit again!
Blatantly offensive, yellow “journalism.”
He assumes that our criticism of critics of the club is based on love for the owner not the club or any legitimate criticism of the the criticisms
Decent article from Ducker on Phil.
