Chews with his mouth open ahaha I come on here mainly to read comments like this. Brilliant.

Or maybe it should be :-o

Strange discussion to define what's a correct reaction to something in life and what's not...
I thought people are different, no?

Some are able to accept criticism about City, others aren't so much it seems.
Some love to analyze a complex situation, others prefer a quick and straight verdict.

Maybe some Blues are fuming because they love City? Just a thought...

By far the most irritating reaction to criticism about the current situation is bringing up events of success back then. Every single time.
What's so difficult about making a difference between past and presence?

A reasonable and measured post chum.

Just thinking back to Sunday and I recall on quite a few occasions De Bruyne and Foden both being ahead of the ball along with Haaland and Doku.......it's no wonder we looked outnumbered in midfield especially due to the lack of energy in the middle.

This season there has been a big gap between the midfield and attack in most games ( apart from maybe Chelsea and the Forest game )

I'm not sure we can accommodate both the present day De Bruyne and Foden in the same line up any more and maybe this is one of the reasons we do not control the games as we have done previously.

No sure he’s shite but he’s no legend as a stopper. You’re right his passing can be sublime but I’d rather have a ‘ keeper it sort’ve goes with the job description.

Should play him at centre back

Hopefully the return of Dokavic will help this, although maybe not solve it completely

With Ortega in goal?
You could be onto aomething.....

You can add Gundogan to that as well, can’t cover the ground anymore just like KDB which means we have zero intensity and ability to press. The average age of this squad is the second highest in the Premier League, we’ve held onto players longer than we should have and the recruits brought in at the same time just haven’t been the level required.

A fresh set of eyes in the new DOF will be interesting, people forget Brian Marwood recruited David Silva, Yaya, Aguero, Kompany, Zabaleta, Dzeko etc. The recruitment won’t go to shit just cos Txiki is leaving.

I suspect that those posters who rail against those ventng against the team, players, executives etc are actually the angriest fans of all and are just taking it out on anyone who voices their concerns whilst, at the same time, showcasing what bigger blues they are.

I just try to "meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same.” Not easy though.

That's why I've taken to calling them angry clappers...

That's enough bluemoon for today

Made me laugh anyways.......... :-)

Had enough of listening about Sunday now let’s move on to slagging the cunts off

The only positive thing you can do is to support the team through thick and thin. Screaming at Nunes isn't going to help him.

City's current troubles relate to weak defensive midfielders and weak wide forwards that are leaving Haaland isolated and our defence exposed. But now there is no longer to play Gundogan and KDB, Doku is fit and Bobb should be back soon.

We should improve as the players return providing Pep is not wedded to the idea of playing Gundogan and de Bruyne. I think that's doomed.

That Scholes last minute header haunted me for years

Still does - no clever movement, no bit of brilliance just fucking waltzed straight into the area for an unmarked header about 10 yards out.

This despite me screaming the entire time from 116 for someone to pick him up.

That fucking dread never leaves you.........

 

[Marvin.]

Kovacic looked quality when he came on and we started to play. Foden was quality too. But out of the blue, Nunes made a catastrophic individual error. There's no point punishing him for this. It is done now. That was the behaviour of a player under pressure.

I am such a fucking saddo - I'm out in Cork for a couple of days, I've just re-watched that fucking goal?

Why oh why do I do it...........

Has anyone asked what the Rags' match day thread was like before we gave it them?

History has been re-written, the truth distorted and they've told each other enough times that they now actually believe it......It now appears that it's a common opinion throughout football that they totally deserved the 3 points

the amount of times the window lickers have done us at the Etihad even through our dominating years irritates the life outta me

Oh thanks mate, I have to admit I didn't know that great poem (German schools to blame!).
Sometimes Bluemoon unexpectedly gives you something back. Have a nice day!
