Absolutely, but the human nature balance seems to be way too negative and ignoring the positives.
Posters always go too far with Raheem though and that's what I find weird. I thought Foden was pretty anonymous and had less of a positive effect on the game than Sterling but he isn't getting ripped to shreds from page 1 onwards. Like all groups of supporters we've got this element though going back decades, Edghill was the first I remember so this isn't a new phenomenon. I just find it weird that this is what a small group of our followers concentrates on after a game like that. It's like they don't enjoy the game, just the negative over the top criticism of some players. As I said, it's weird behaviour.

Maybe and some fans are overly critical. Remember “Angry fan” on SoccerAm? They portrayed that phenomenon really well.

People remember mistakes more than goals.

It’s why these threads have less pages when we win as the people less critical don’t scream their frustrations as much.

I like Sterling. He’s scored tons of goals for us, but you can also see why he frustrates the life out of our fans too.

His movement and work rate is probably better than 95% of our players, but he misses sitters and freezes when he has time to think.

Some bellends watch my club.

We were outstanding as a team tonight, so criticism of any player is ridiculous, wtf do people want ?

You tell ‘em @cleavers. We were outstanding and we will continue to be so until the end of May. Positivity that’s the name of the game.

He certainly went in hard

Nah, he was off balance having been nudged by Foden. It wasn’t even a challenge, it was just two players colliding and Laporte had his feel planted.

I fear it could be a 6-9 monther, sadly.

It is, but I’m sure Pep and his staff point out certain misses to certain players.

A brain?

Kevin De Bruyne is a remarkable footballer.

Worried about the defence for the last 2 games.

We have about 2 players back there

Attack is the best form of defence. Imagine winning it with 10 midfielders plus a goalkeeper who thinks he’s a midfielder.
Media would have a meltdown

 

[bluemc1]

Losing so many defenders has me nervous for the final two games :(

Last few games we seem to be playing a bit more forcefully and direct imo. Was having this debate a week or two ago. Who is better Kev or David? My decision: David was the most beautiful footballer I've seen at City but Kev is a killer.

Maybe over egging the positives but thought Jack has been more assertive these last two games. He's had a bit more space than normal and is using it well

ill never argue on someone’s opinion of best player Over Silva, Toure, KDB or Aguero
All just genius at what the do but all different as well
I couldn’t give solid reasons why I’d take one above the rest, Ive tried to think if we were in a CL final and had to choose one to start who would it be, not much easier to be honest

Kevin was shit for the first half of the season, thankfully Pep has moved him further forward and he has been brilliant the past few months.

Pep even alluded to his improved form in the post match interview.

He was carrying an injury early season.

Oh no please don’t say that. We need every player fit.
