A nifty goal from Jesus.:) And don't forget Walkers super strike pass strike pass strike whatever it was ???? Overall, very happy with that performance. Swansea are flying high in the Championship and we were in total command. We had so much still left in the locker and could have stepped it up at any time. Pep won't be happy we conceded that goal though and it won't help Laporte in try to wrestle his spot back 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bredbury Blue Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 It was reported that City broke a top-flight record by chalking up our 15th consecutive win in all competitions, with a victory at Swansea, passing the achievement of 14 consecutive wins by Preston in 1891-92 and Arsenal in 1987. However there's some confusion as some consider that City already hold that record, with 20 straight wins from August to December as they won the league and League Cup in 2017-18. The confusion arises from the penalty shoot-out win over Wolves in the middle of that run – but City historian Gary James had it confirmed by both the football lawmaking body Ifab and the National Association of Football Statisticians, that a win on penalties counts as a match win, not a draw. So we way, we either hold the record for consecutive wins in all competitions with 15 wins or 20 wins ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bredbury Blue Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Pep's 200th win as Man City boss in 268 games in charge with a 74.6 win percentage. At Barcelona he had a win rate of 72.4%. At Bayern Munich it was 75.1%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jellydog Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Pep is the manager of the month and Gundogan is the player of the month. Well deserved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will need one of either the League Cup or Europa to survive I think, both of which look unlikely at present. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bredbury Blue Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Similar to the Liverpool win, started slowly and nervy, but stepped it up 2nd half. Gundog was given MOM for his goals but i thought Stones, Bernardo, Rodri and Zinchenko were great. Notably 4 of those players (i.e. not Bernardo) have never been considered a star player of the team and have often been the scapegoat, but have all come good in this run (only Mahrez isn't in top form in the current squad). Think i would have given MOM to Zinchenko for yet another solid game - he's become important to us. Expected more from Spurs but it never came. Brighton and Villa were better recently against us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbojangles Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 This just seems to be a masterclass of game management. Lots of games to play and so only stay in the gear required to win the game. Score a goal, don't over do it and don't get injured seems to be the message.

jellydog Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Tough work for those three points but well earned. Looked like City struggled in the final third but the defense held up. I can do without Stones and Dias gallivanting up the pitch. Cut that out! And while I'm complaining, why bring on Jesus when you need more final third trickery? As usual it could/should have been Foden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stones and DIas running up gives the opposition a total headache as to how to defend 3) Foden is being saved for Borrussia MG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
