Manchester City players ran 73.3 miles in total against Stoke. In the same fixture last season, they ran 63.6 miles.

Ive just seen that reported myself,its just another fantastic indicator of the impact Pep is having on the team already.

On the flip,it also shows how much the players 'got away' with last season.

Part of me doesn't blame the players much at all, every man and his dog saw the players looking half-arsed in a lot of games so there's no doubting that Pellers and his staff must have spotted the same.

So either they didn't notice, didn't do anything about it or tried and failed to get the players to put a shift in. Whichever of those is true - not good enough.
 
Not gone through all of this thread, so don't know whether it has been discussed.

Why has it not been picked up, that Whelan gave Aguero a forearm smash after he scored his 2nd?

If it had been one of our players I am sure the media would be all over it.

Thanks Celesteltis. The response you got sounds a load of old bollocks to me. So they remembered him diving a couple of years ago whilst playing for another team and since then he's been singled out by the Stoke boo boys?

They were chanting "only one greedy bastard" at him as well. So i dont really think it had anything to do with a dive 2 years ago. Just the usual bollox created by the shit stirring Sun and bitter scousers.

Anyone catch Stirling being mugged on the byeline by Pieters when we scored the 3rd?

I have been away from home last two days. Thought it was a weird game overall with absolute ref blunders...with blues playing the better stuff especially towards the end. Can't complain at the loss at all, but thought 4-1 was harsh as an end result. Dean is a twat.

Why harsh fella ?? Pep brought on Nolito and Kelichi and their fresh legs were the injection of pace needed to get our last 2 goals. A fantastic substitution that didn't get no where near the credit it deserved.. goals scored in the last few minutes of a game are just as important as those scored early..( it seems when we do it it flatters us but when the vermine used to do it it was the pisscans tactical genius)
 
And, that 4th goal was a work of art - the dummy by Iheanacho was sublime, yet - typically - not deemed worthy of comment in the media.

Ref blunders? Yes, your thug of a right full back should have been sent off for an over the ball tackle in the first half, and you maybe should have had a penalty if the ref hadn't been unsighted for the Kolarov 'foul.' Then again, if the ref had spotted that Shawcross pushed Sterling first on the penalty incident, maybe you shouldn't have had that penalty at all. So, all in all, if the ref had spotted everything, we would have had double figures instead of just the 4.
