Snapped your hand off for a point at half time...

Let's hope we don't bottle it again next week

Pathetic comment. Are you man or mouse?

Taylor was shamed into giving that penalty. He’s a disgrace.

 

[SWPISHOME]

You miss some you score some penalties. The big thing for me if City has scored that penalty in the first half had been given and scored.
Makes it a different game

How can VAR not give it ?

We all know the answer to that question.

If only Mahrez was replaced by Foden.

I would have swapped Kev for Phil and moved Grealish into the Kev role. After his goal Grealish looked on it. The pen not given was a fucking disgrace. The wanker needed to be told by var for the one he gave. Fix is always on.

I don’t contest that, but I still maintain you don’t give *this* penalty to the player that remembers they missed their last very big penalty. It’s too much of a psychological distraction. I have been there, I know it plays a part, even at that level. Many formers pros have spoken about that pressure and how it impacts your performance.

The penalty should have been given to Kev.

@Quagmire blue notice I am having a civil debate rather than calling other posters a “clown”. Cut out the insults and discuss like an adult.

His last very big penalty was an equalizer in a Champions League quarter final second leg.

Kevin missed v Liverpool last season, Jesus has a terrible record, Sterling and Gundo weren't on the pitch but both have missed in the past.

Hard fought result today............

 

[abu13]

getting in early before everyone kicks off; good point all things considered but FUCK ME that was hard watching.

still, it’s still in our hands and we always had to beat villa anyway and hopefully the home crowd will be up for it. I believe we’re gonna do it!

Imagine if the impossible happens and Liverpool lose their next game. Now THAT’D be funny

Stranger things have happened, even if they draw it would be an excellent result for us.

They have to Win the next 2 games to have a shot at the title, it puts huge pressure on them to do so, any slip and they are fucked.

 

[SebastianBlue]

So I dreamt that he’s been the most reliable penalty taker over the past two seasons?

In big matches? I honestly would be happy to be proven wrong that he scores game-deciding (with major title implication) penalties more than other players and so it was justified for him to take that penalty.

It's all set up nicely for Grealish to twat his old club on the final day to win us the league.

tbh im not sure he should play...the emotions behind that transfer sets a tone for the game and motivates the villa playes and fans more and thats not what we need. ...plus Foden is far superior to him at present.

Id have him on the subs bench and keep him there as I wouldnt put it past him to do somethign really stupid as he aint that bright

Well….I’m absolutely knackered! God knows how the players feel, it’s been a really tough period for our boys in blue, but they’ve now got a full week to prepare for Villa, I only wish one of our defensive lads could make it (preferably Kyle) over to them lot now, we’ve made Klopps selection difficult by giving them a sniff, but I’m not really expecting anything from Southampton or Wolves
