Not good enough. Simples. Going in front twice and not being able to hold on isn't good enough

Very poor again. Fernandinho decent, Walker Gundogan Silva ok rest poor. Disappointed Pep left it so long to make subs and bring some energy - didn't help. Just a struggle at the moment. 

 

It's over for us this season in my opinion. I keep waiting for us to wake up but we dont. Liverpool don't always play great but they get over the line. We give poor teams like Norwich Wolves Newcastle  few chances and they score from each one. Still think we'd be better with Fernandinho in midfield and Rodri than trying to patch up the CBs.

 

Have to concentrate on the Carabao  cup now ☺

Time to start looking at insuring a top 4 finish. Too many obstacles to overcome this season, not the least of which seems to be the bloom off the rose a bit. As I've said before the squad looks a little jaded at times and not as hungry as the past two seasons. Add in the loss of captain Vinnie and the injuries. Not to mention the lack of adequate depth defensively.

G'Night chaps????

Why shouldn't they?

 

This has to be the weakest title defence since David Moyes.

Unfortunately it does but couldn't pass up the opportunity. If we're hanging around between undercards we should be able to get it on our mobiles

Less than 30 minutes from home and only a couple of hundred quid. It's mainly a bucket list thing really

If United and City are two washed up heavyweights, what does that make Bolton? ... A bantamweight on his death bed.

The corpse is still twitching ..

.. just.

That Ballon d'Or is a load of bollacks like most footballing awards isnt it.

 

Happy enough that the best player i've ever seen - the most consistently brilliant player - won it again, but what a joke the whole thing is. Examples:

Mahrez at no.10. He wasn't even City's 10th best player!!!

Bernardo at no.9 (behind Mane, i dont think so). The best 2 players in England  during the period were Bernardo and VVD.

You have to remember it is a world trophy and not based just on Premier League performances. Mahrez won the AFCON with Algeria (Captain I believe) so that will be why he was highly ranked...and as for Bernardo being better than Mane....????

Sorry but that's <deleted>.

 

Bernardo was City's player of the season and winner of 2019 UEFA Nations League Final (didn't he win the tournaments best player).

 

Anybody who watches City and world football knows Bernardo was vastly superior to Mahrez in the past year so why you trying to defend him?

 

Bernado better than Mane / Mane better than Bernardo comes down to opinion / personal preference (similar to Messi or Ronaldo...I'd go with Messi everytime).
