Post Match Thread: City vs Southampton

[crazyg]

Get everyone back,fit & in form.

Then we need to play with the intensity & style of the first 5 games and go on an unbeaten run of 12 to 15 games winning,respectively,10 or 12 of them.

We are capable, but we have to become like the All Blacks,ruthless,remorseless,ultra professional from top to bottom,particularily the coach.

They are the benchmark.....they ARE elite !

Looking forward to see the lads performing the Haka before the Hull match.

If we dont win the title it will be down to 2 fundamental issues. 1. We dont put away the umpteen chances we get. 2. The dreaded ongoing injury list. On a different point WHERE TF are the City fans nowadays. SO many empty seats almost every home match.....frankly its embarrasing and cannot be defended. If the players had a forum they would have every right to slag the "fans" off that dont turn up.

Talking about the ref. - When Kolorov took the free kick in the first half - their keeper - not sure if he pushed it onto the bar - then he recovered to fall on the ball -
and 2 City players went into the net. The ref gave them a free kick ? - Why FFS ?. The keeper wasn't touched , he was happy to have the ball in his grasp.
Still can't see why a free kick was given to them - even after watching MOTD.

Was that the free kick where the ref paced out 10 yards then walked back to where the Southampton wall was (3 yards further back) and sprayed his line there (I.e. 7 yards away)?

Also Utd fans will have gone back into their shells

Turtallly agree.

Or maybe as it was not on tv not so many saw it.

They're all well able to find a stream when we have a bad result.

Liked the look of Van Dijk at Centre Half.
Very assured on the ball, brought it out with confidence and two-footed.
One to keep an eye on.

Really ? Today was the first time this season that there was quite a few empty seats. Most of them were ST no shows as the official att was still above 54k.

And I still hate them for that stunt following the final game at Maine Road.

What stunt?

What stunt?

I presume he means taking their full allocation and then selling them to Blues for a big profit

City gave them a smaller allocation, just in windy corner, they complained and we were fined for it.
Even with less seats, they didn't sell out though.
