I wasn't

The linesman was on the right side to see it as well. More comically bad stuff from these officials. They really are a scourge on the game at this point. VAR should be something to help these buffoons out, but when you think about it, it will probably just make it a greater farce than it already is. If these guys are the best out there in the centre of the pitch on matchday, imagine how poor these plebs up in a VAR box are! Even with the benefits of replay after replay, these guys will make a sh*t show of things. The VAR in the world cup showed how truly awful it can be at times.

Huddersfield playing a lot better since going 1 down. Just seem to have very little quality in the opposition box.

Sane is some player. For a lad who possibly isn't even a certain starter when Mendy is fit, I'd have him alongside De Bruyne as their most important attacking player over the next few months. The sky is the limit for him. If Guardiola decides to drop him for some games when Mendy is back, I reckon it will be the end of City's hopes of winning either of the big 2 competitions. They have to try and fit Mendy and Sane into the same team regularly in future imo.

I’d say Phil Foden must be ragin that he signed a new deal. 3 up away from home, 3 subs made and can’t get a run

Aye he’s probably fuming with his life at present

There’s an obsession with everything City related every game. If they’re winning comfortably people will find something to nitpick about, whether that be empty seats, team selection, them being too hard on smaller teams by trying, or not giving young players a chance etc etc

I trust Guardiola with Foden, he knows a thing or two about bringing through young players

He’s played more games than Ryan Giggs had, for example, when he was the same age. Nothing to be panicking about

You can of course, don’t be silly now. I made points above to add to the debate

There’s no obsession. Well at least I don’t think there is, unless you define an obsession being along the lines of posting about how St Mary’s had empty seats during the week in their cup tie v derby.

My point wasn’t about Pep knowing what he’s doing or the amount of games Ryan Giggs had made at the same age. If you were looking for a closer to home barometer, then look no further than Michael Johnson. My point was that Foden must be ragin having not gotten on the pitch yet again in a game that was done after 56mins, instead on comes another player for his 23rd appearance of the season. That’s all, nothing more, no agenda and hey look if he goes on to great things and plays a sh*t load next season I’m sure you’ll only be delighted to bump a few posts about it in some form of immature pettiness.
