If only we had a striker we wouldn't have needed to use four different players to score our goals this match...

...but...

I think Harland might worry that others would bang the ball into the net before it got to him if he joined us.

Perhaps we should ask the lads to ease up a bit... lol.

Steady nothing more nothing less. Felt for Gabby deserved a goal today

No one’s fault other than his own for missing that sitter.

'Not a great performance'​

FT: Newcastle 0-4 Man City

Manchester City
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola tells BBC MOTD: "A good result, not a good performance. We were lucky but Newcastle did not defend well for the first goal and a brilliant action from Joao Cancelo for the second goal. The first half was one of the worst we have played this season and second half was much better.
"We played better with the ball, gave players more touches but were losing balls in the first half. We were calm at half-time and spoke about what we should do.
"It was a fantastic goal (from Cancelo), we know the quality he has in the final third and he dribbled and did it.
"Records show consistency we have as a team, it is not winning titles or finals but it is winning and winning. Records are there to be broken and happy to have them.
"I didn't rotate today, I decide the best team, we need a different base for the players and now we have seven days until the next game. Hopefully Leicester are getting better with a lot of Covid cases so I will take a decision on the team."

Agreed. He puts that anywhere else, esp downwards, and he scores.

Jesus on the left makes a goal for Sterling on the right !.

Poor first half poor but 2 up, second half better but still some sloppy passes.

An odd match lol

Dont anyone moan about the atmosphere at the Etihad again that was one of the quietest home crowds I have ever 'heard'.
Well done the City fans you sounded great

I saw plenty of grey seats as well but they were not spotted by the commentators.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

I love the desperation for the dippers to stay on the coattails, not a whiff of post match analysis

 

[mosssideblue]

Great result but not a great match. 3 points was the objective and that was readily achieved, so no complaints.
