Yh the press tried to light a match with all the uncertainty that comes with a new boss but your man answered them and I'd like to see him with the record under his belt as he's been sensational and made it look pretty normal and created expectations for himself. If he's there next year I reckon he beats his season PB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 (edited) We were sweating a bit in the end. Had a lot of tough decisions to make did the ref. For the silva goal I thought sterling's body was marginally off, he made a movement towards the ball, goalies view wasn't blocked, goalie couldn't get to the ball therefore sterling wasn't interfering and goal correctly given. There was an angle of mahrez from which he looked outside the box therefore no penalty should have been given. Bit of look that he double kicked the penalty - never seen that before.

Apart from the dodgy first goal, in which arguably Sterling became active, even though not in the line of goalie, I think the rest of the decisions went against us Bob.

Yeah the getting away with it part was relating to that goal and the 2 touch penalty. You could have easily come away with nothing. The refeering part was that Sterling goal and the Leicester penalty for a foul a good metre outside the box. Basic, easy decisions, horribly wrong again.

Bredbury Blue Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 "You could have easily come away with nothing" You're not wrong there. 7 minutes extra time plus 2.5 added on in extra time I thought we were on Fergie time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bredbury Blue Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Very sad to see Zaba leaving but the time is right. "Zabaleta has made 332 appearances since signing for £6.5m from Espanyol the day before it was announced that Sheikh Mansour was the club’s new owner and he made his debut for City in September 2008" - bargain! One of my favourites. No more black eyes and bleeding for City. An adopted Manc now with accent to match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Zabaleta = leaving. Jesus Navas = please leave. Can run all day fast but nothing more. Reported being offered a contract...no. Willy Caballero = took winning the league cup for us to like him. contract as backup to NEW goalie ok otherwise leave. Gael Clichy = lost his pace. Leave! Bacary Sagna = leave Yaya Touré = I always feel more confident with yaya playing. Go-to man. well worth a year contract. Joe Hart, Eliaquim Mangala, Wilfried Bony, Samir Nasri or Jason Denayer = All will be leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you need to spend such an obscene amount of money when you have the genius Guardiola in charge, because i'm reliably informed his achievements had nothing to do with managing the greatest club side this planets ever seen? He also reckons you are the most creative side in the league! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consensus of opinion on Goals on Sunday from looking at the slow mo's was that Sterling should have been deemed to be offside as he was making a move towards the ball thus interfering with play. Mahrez was bought down by Clichy in the box and that the resulting 2 touch pen should have been re-taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a game of best out of 3, alfie. You can't keep on taking them till you score. The penalty taker caused the infringement and according to Law 14, the opposition takes an indirect free kick from where the infringement took place. And no matter how much you slow down or speed up the foul, Mahrez was outside the box. Sterling's we were lucky to get away with as he did become active. More reason to bring in video tech ASAP.

Bredbury Blue Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 (edited) Fair play to Bobby Madeley for getting it correct, unlike in Italy this year where the ref didn't see the double touch and it affected the result: Sassuolo 0 - 1 Milan http://www.dutchreferee.com/bacca-touching-the-ball-twice-at-penalty-kick/ Edited May 14, 2017 by Bredbury Blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No no no nothing to do with the double touch, the presenter's and guest bought it to everyone's attention that the Gk was a yard off his line and 2 City player's were in the box before the double touch even occurred Edited May 14, 2017 by alfieconn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
