Worth a watch....

That's such a breath of fresh air to hear pundits talking positively about us.

Ha - should be interesting in terms of CL and PL rights cash going forward.

He was always going to show a card. It was obvious he was waiting for the VAR official to confirm what colour

The ref got that one spot on.. until then he seemed to be favouring PSG but no complaints now

According to what I managed to read online, by 4pm it all crystallized into 'The game of two halves and two lucky goals'.

I was amazed when re-watching it this morning (I turned the sound down last night) to hear Jermain Jenas saying that the ref was giving City nothing for all the fouls that were being committed against us. Not often they notice, or at least admit that they notice!

Thought Jeans was ok last night. Half decent summarising for a change.

Interesting that our mates at Silverlake were among those who considered buying in. Is that the only way we’ll get a fair shake? :)

I’ve just been reading the supposed shortlist for The Premier League Hall of Fame 23 man shortlist. There are 5 players on it who played for City past their peak and aren’t on the list for what they did at City.
I was shocked when looking at the list there was no Kompany, captained City to 4 PL titles, however Vidic, Adams, Campbell, Terry, Ferdinand are all on it.
Also no Silva, 10 years service, also 4 PL titles.
Finally no Sergio!!!! Scored the most iconic PL goal of all time, most hat tricks, leading foreign scorer and also FOUR PL TITLES.In ahead of him, Les Ferdinand, Robbie Fowler, Michael Owen & Van Persie who combined won 2 PL titles and have all scored less than him in the league.
Le Tissier is in the list who was a fantastic player & was loyal to Southampton but I am wondering what the criteria is?
Maybe with time they will add City players but those 3 should surely be on the shortlist now.

The criteria is, did they play during the Sky peak years mid nineties, otherwise they are irrelevant - How many times do they (pundits) bang on about Beckham Scholes Giggs Viera Bergkamp Gerrard etc when they are trying to make comparisons with a modern footballer. They are literally stuck in the past
