I thought we showed a lot of resilience last night to hold onto the win despite being down to 10 men. And we didn’t give up in the Community Shield. Arguably, we handled the penalty pressure better than you. Given however, how widespread this stereotypical meme is on here, it’s certainly how you City fans seem to view us. I’d love a pound for every time the word ‘giddy’ has been used on here. But if it makes you lot happy in believing it, carry on, no skin off my nose.

There are more options than we realise:For me it's not just if Rodri picks up an injury, it's who plays when he needs a rest that's the problem.
Stones and Kovačić
Stones and Bernardo
Stones and Lewis
Stones and Akanji
Stones and Gvardiol
Stones and Phillips
Kovačić and Bernardo
Kovačić and Lewis
Kovačić and Akanji
Kovačić and Gvardiol
Kovačić and Phillips
Lewis and Bernardo
Lewis and Akanji
Lewis and Phillips
Lewis and Gvardiol
Akanji and Bernardo
Akanji and Gvardiol
Akanji and Phillips
Phillips and Bernardo
Phillips and Gvardiol
Bernardo and Gvardiol
… or any of them on their own.
Over the course of the season in the EFL Cup and FA Cup early rounds, the opening game in the World Club Cup, some of the weaker teams at home in the PL and CL, many of these combinations should be good enough to give Rodri a rest.
Yeah but you did bottle the last two seasons though so you can talk out your ass about winning a charity game on pens but when it mattered in the past you bottled it, if you don’t like the truth I would advice you to piss off to Arsenal Mania where you belongI thought we showed a lot of resilience last night to hold onto the win despite being down to 10 men.

Thank you for your cogent and well meaning advice. I’ll take it under advisement.

Why? This isn’t RAWK, opposition fans should be welcome. It’s not like he’s come in and called us all cunts and slipped on ‘115 charges’, ‘financial doping’, ‘Emptyhad’ comments.Yeah but you did bottle the last two seasons though so you can talk out your ass about winning a charity game on pens but when it mattered in the past you bottled it, if you don’t like the truth I would advice you to piss off to Arsenal Mania where you belong
The more opposition fans there are on here, the better. It stops us becoming warped in our outlook and trapped in an echo chamber of the same biased thoughts… that’s what leads to cult like fanbases. I think there’s too much of that recently with our fanbase, we’re getting far too touchy and sensitive and a bit paranoid.
I agree with him. I think our perception of Arsenal being overemotional all the time is overegged.
There’s no doubt that they have been overemotional at times, it was definitely one of the reasons they slipped away last season with the over excitement from wins at Spurs and Villa and against Bournemouth, and a few of them completely seeing their arse in defeats at Everton and City… but it’s not all the time and wasn’t last night despite loads of comments about it in the live game thread and the Arsenal thread after the game. That was simply a run-of-the-mill post-game celebration that any team has from any week to the next.
And I’m someone who doesn't like Arsenal at all and I can’t stand Arteta.

This is the most pathetic thing I've ever read on a football forum.And we didn’t give up in the Community Shield.

I don't mind fans coming and talking about their own team, giving a view of someone who watches their team week in and out when we are about to play them, but he's all over the main forum like a rash, getting excited that Pep has an injury, disrupting conversations I want to have with fellow blues about my own team. There was multiple Arsenal fans that's did the same last season as well. He's like a knobhead in a pub who won't leave you alone to chat with a mate you've met because he's overheard something you're talking about and is now dominating the table.Why?

Mind you the latter were voted out of the FL in 1951 and subsequently went bust.

New to football forums, are you?

Thank you for that balanced and welcoming post. Much appreciated. I’m new to this forum and still ‘finding my feet’ so to speak, gauging how views are expressed and responded to.
I have been a bit surprised at how sensitive some of you are on here but there you go.
And I’m someone who doesn’t dislike City. I admire the football you’ve played these past few years and I do like Pep. One of the greats.
