I went for a piss when the penalty was given and was walking back to my seat when they scored the 2nd so didn't see either of their goals.
Therefore, I will claim a 1-0 win.

Fucking shit.

All 3 goals were scored at the opposite end to me and i don't look at the big tellys so i'm sticking with a nil nil...

The current car crash all comes down to the situation where the manager waits until November to decide if he still wants to be the manager and DoF asleep at the wheel whilst on his victory lap. You just can’t allow that to happen no matter what success Pep has brought previously. You can’t stand still when a rebuild is needed.

This is not a transition season. We are in a tailspin and the transition season will be next season and possibly the season after when we will be in the same position with Pep leaving again.

No idea what the solution is but if feel sorry for anybody that thinks a load of new players will rock up on January 1st ! We are fucked. Possibly the worst team in whole league at the moment and it ain’t going to improve anytime soon.

Did anybody at the club ever think what would happen if Rodri was injured for a season ?

Mind blowing complacency which will cost us hundreds of millions to sort.

Any midfielder City are interested in signing in Jan will have £40m added to their fee by the selling club and won’t happen till the end of Jan when our season will be toast anyway.

And why trust Txiki with a penny after complete and utter tfr failure for 2 years.

Do we rebuild in January quickly, and cull our legends, or is. It going to be slowly slowly, I fear with the club world cup without an injection of 8 top players next season will be another write off. It's hard to say it but it feels like half the team are playing in a benefit season and the other half not good enough to go up to the level required, it's been the worst season in terms of entertainment for a good long while. We need 2 proper full backs, a complete refresh in midfield, and certainly another striker, as far more depth, playing every 4 days is killing us. Personally ii feel the rebuild has to start in January, and players bedded in, KDB, Gundo, Bernie, Walker, Stones, Grealish, Nunes are not the future

Couldn't bring myself to watch the highlights after I got home from the game , but just seen the goals, how the fuck did Gvardiol not clear that second from the line? Calamitous defending.

 

[remember arthur mann]

Square pegs in round holes.

 

[Bluesince1979]

Think I would rather eat your turkey butties to be honest.

Id rather suck his balls

 

[Blue Til Death]

Scored and conceded over 100?

Typical City :-)

 

[Immel & Dibble]

Erm… Bournemouth win and they could go above us!!

That is beyond my control and yours

Embarrassingly emotional thread.

That last mad 5 minutes aside we were much the better side. That 5 minutes doesn’t happen and everyone’s buzzing saying we’ve steadied the ship etc.

You can’t blame Pep for Nunes being a **** for their first. You can’t blame Pep for no one putting pressure on the ball for a good 5 seconds before Martinez puts Amad in for the second. You can’t blame Pep for Ederson (again) making a complete **** of himself by rushing out when he had no chance of getting it,

Mad, ridiculous individual errors. That’s it. Fuck all to do with Pep.

I suggest some of you log off and sleep on it you sound like 6 year old girls.

You can blame Pep for picking Ederson over Ortega when his two previous games were Feyenoord and Juve, and he was pants in both of them.
You could also argue that there have been too many "5 minutes" of late...capitulations have been a regular occurrence during this poor run but you're right, that is on the players.

 

[Fat Freddy's Cat]

We were shit bar literally a few moments of decent passing. We didn't just lose the game because of a few defensive lunatic moments. We lost the game because we didn't win the ball often enough, didn't maintain possession often enough, didn't attack often enough didn't have shots often enough and didn't score more than one goal.

Our creativity is gone. Has been for weeks and has been declining for months before any injury crisis.

We were not the better team before united equalised.

Whether Pep stays or goes we can't delude ourselves into thinking we are unlucky. This crisis is deep. Imo at least.

It pains me to say it but I agree with with everything you say.
