Bredbury Blue Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Pep on Sancho: Pep Guardiola has said that Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho decided not to take the challenge at Manchester City when he left the Premier League club. "I don't know. He didn't want to take this challenge, this opportunity to discover if he was able to," Guardiola told the media. "He decided to go there. So, it's perfect. It's going well and congratulations on what he is doing. "He is doing an incredible performance. He did it incredibly well this season. What would have happened this season [at City]? I don't know. "Again, with the players, it depends on them and what they do on the pitch." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He chose to let a top player leave for a pittance same player worth 100m less than 2 years later. It should make the sheikhs wonder if investing a bit more time in youth is: A. Cheaper B. Better advert for youth C. Better business than buying likes of mahrez for 60m D. with such a strategy would investigations of wrong doing be tarnishing them? There's a club with egg on their face and there's a 100m star with a bug smile. Do the maths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two chances two goals and its Palace and Leicester all over again. Needs to change 3 of them at kickoff (he wont change anyone) but can't see us saving the day.

mrbojangles Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 For those against VAR. That's why it's needed. Never a penalty and Aguero off side for the winner. But I'll take it until the luddites catch up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t have a 2 tier Cup. And why don’t they have it., because it’s not a Premiership ground. It’s not long ago Swansea were in the Premiership. Oh and they have it later on the United game.

But I'll take it until the luddites catch up Ive always been told on here luck evens itself over a season. Seriously though, Swansea got a deserved penalty, a cracking goal, hung on and had a lot of penalty box luck, but we got lucky with the penalty and taking the penalty, and Aguero's great goal could have been offside (not 100% clear). We'll take and move on. Exciting game. Bernardo by far MOM, again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show me anything that disagrees with me that we didn't want Sancho to leave. Bet you can't and therefore your argument is up the swanny. 2.

473geo Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Aguero laid the pass for the first goal, scored the penalty, and scored the winner, if you are looking for a man of the match his contribution was decisive even more so considering he was a second half sub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about own goal if the keeper gets a hand to a penalty and it still goes in that is not an own goal right? if it is his leg or backside on a rebound not sure, The luck of City swung from totally out to totally in all through the game.

The goalie has been credited. It bounced off the post and was coming back out until it hit the back of his leg. Totally agree we had luck but I suppose Swansea did as well. They had 2 shots on target to our 9. There goalie and defenders were stopping everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the ball is going into the goal and it touches the goalkeeper/defender , it isnt classified as an own goal , but if the ball isnt going into the goal and it touches the goalkeeper its classified as an own goal . Whether its an own goal or not depends on whether the ball was heading into the back of the net or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
