Here's a fun quiz - is this headline from a victim fanzine, or the main BBC Sport home page?

The two aren’t mutually exclusive. Both subscriptions come with a free pack of candles.

The former? This seems to be the BBC match report.

City have reached 4 articles, albeit with a Chelsea slant in the………



Compare that to the 17 fawning articles after United scraped past Fulham on Friday.

On a serious note. Once again City get no obvious credit by name after beating Chelsea.

To be fair, it must be irritating.
Like mentioning "Invincibles" everytime you open your mouth, or trying to portray yourself as a football hardman when everyone just remembers a lanky, error prone, average player.

Don't think Keown was that special, but he did play for Arsenal (whom he hangs onto), Everton & Villa.
But, when he tries to be over-elaborate with his punditry, he sounds like a pretentious twit...

You would have thought they had beat Real Madrid, not Ed sheeran tractor boys

New season. First game. Minutes in from Kelly Cates, 115 charges. Micah thicker than a whale omelette Richards using guilty and innocent terms. This legal terminology is so far entrenched it’s become fact. Nobody pointing out its 115 Premier League rule breaches. The Police are waiting for the outcome with bated breath.

Then they are all nicey nicey when Big Earl shows up for an interview

“Big spending, 115 charge dodging City squeeze past a youthful Chelsea team to join United and Liverpool at the top of the table”

Over elaborate for him would be stringing a sentence together with a hint of a cogent argument the knuckle dragging halfwit.
