BBC lol. For the second week running City were the beneficiaries of a contentious offside call but there can be no doubt that they would have routed the hosts regardless.

Two perfectly legal goals not contentious

It’s only contentious if you fail to look at all the defenders when drawing the line. Wankers

Do not move cancelo back to the left. If we are playing walker and cancelo in same team cancelo has to stay on the right in his best position and walker plays as a centre half/right back hybrid.

Cancelo is the new Philip Lahm. Brilliant in that "Right Back then come inside" position that Pep invented. Actually world class. Pep moved Laporte onto the left tonight for the last 30 minutes. I wonder if he is trying to replicate it on the other flank as well. Bloody hell. What football.

Great performance all round tonight by the team. Much more clinical

The referee was very good tonight. So good you didn’t really notice him. Not so sure about the lino - I thought they’re not supposed to flag (there’s no way she could have been 100 % sure)

I don`t like a couple of players who I don`t "hate" but by the same token at times I will give them the benefit of the doubt,but by fuck some of you really need to reign in your hatred of certain players before a ball has even been kicked before a game.
We all know that Sterling is going through a rough patch,but the lad has proven how good he really can be from previous years.
Gundo has been magnificent over this past season and even the most ardent of fans who do not like him must hold their hands up and say "fair plays".The bloke does looks so much more accomplished as an attacking midfielder.
I accept that I`m no Zinco fan and doesn`t offer us a lot when playing as a full back but at times he looked far better as an attacking midfielder.However for me he`s still not a full back and never will be.
Lets be grateful that Pep understands the game far better than all of us.
Thank fuck !!!

Well said. I'd go one further than put your hand up and say 'fair plays' - just keeping their uneducated shit to themselves would be better. Gundo never got fit since we signed him for one reason or another. But now he is, he's utterly outstanding. And Raz will still score 20 and set up 15 so yeh keep slagging him off you tools. And Zin plays brilliantly for Ukraine in midfield which is his natural position - he's OK at LB against lower opposition. Just need a left back and a striker for next year and were back to being nearly invincible again
 
The improvement in Joao Cancelo this season is amazing. I have to admit I thought he was going to be a bad buy, but I was completely wrong. His passing & dribbling is brilliant & he can use either foot which puts him ahead of most professional footballers. Another outstanding performance from him today, but Gundo was my MOM even though he only played for an hour. Great team performance, but I worry about Raheem.

Sterling’s only problem is, he overthinks everything in front of goal, if he just let his instincts take over, he would be fine, he gets dogs abuse but he’s still a quality player and we need to stick with him, just like most of us did with Gundog..!

Agreed. Sterling was still chasing down balls in the 91st minute tonight. He is having a poor season but no one works harder. He will come back. He is a key part of our team.
