Topic: General Manchester City thread

    By the end of the season we’ll have the lunatic in a straight jacket rocking backwards and forwards wondering how it happened.

[The G in Gerrard]

City & United fans in location I watched the game were pretty complimentary towards us after the game. Through gritted teeth mind you.

[Ken-Obi]

That gif may end up being as iconic as the fuuuuuuuuuu in the Everton thread.

[Ghost Town]

What a jovial chap Pep is; his team losing by 3 and still he has time to cheekily make bunny ears behind the 4th official. What a card!

[Something Worse]

That gif may end up being as iconic as the fuuuuuuuuuu in the Everton thread.

It could be TWIIIIIIIIIIIICE as iconic if Pep goes full meltdown.

By the mid-point of the summer, City had reached their limit of overseas players, meaning if they wanted to sign a foreign defender then Otamendi, or another foreign player, would need to leave. Nathan Ake of Bournemouth has been of interest in the past but a move never materialised, and with Otamendi unable to depart, Benfica’s Ruben Dias, nor any other foreign player, could arrive.

...

And now, with City nine points off Liverpool and facing Chelsea, Newcastle United, Burnley, Manchester United, Arsenal, Leicester, Wolves and Sheffield United between now and January 1, many are expecting them to dip into their pockets and rectify their woes. Yet they face the same problems; unless they can identify a quality and attainable homegrown defender, they will have to sell a foreign player.

They're fucked

They can always "sell" Otamendi to one of the Etihad sister clubs in the US or Australia. Don't see it as being a huge issue.

Neville said in midweek that he never wants Liverpool to win or even score a goal. He must be struggling at the moment.

Struggling? The Rat's been having an on-air breakdown for three years.

Morning City Lurkers 

Do you know something? You lot are such a small club, the buzz from beating you has already gone. Yes it opened a 9pt gap to you, which is ace, but beating you ranks on the same scale as beating Villa in the next day buzz stakes. Compare that to a proper rival like Everton, where we would be buzzing for a few months, Divocks winner a year ago still gets us buzzing.

You are a small club with money, nothing more.

Rodri is utter garbage, another dud to add to many more duds bought by Txiki Begiristain.

I bet he looked amazing AF playing as one of the 3 DM's at Atletico that Simeone likes his midfield to set up.

I always read his name as Trixi Beerstain.

[12C]

Kompany is one bitter twat. This team took 97 points and became Champions of Europe last season, 2 pts dropped this season - they have the mentality to win this ya fuckhead

Souness should have asked him would VAR have sent him off when he crocked Mo, and then said “did you really sing a song about doing that, and about Seán Cox?”

[12C]

And Mikel Arteta, the backing singer!

Looks like one of those classical music boy band singers singing Nessun  dorma.
“The fake tenners”

I can't imagine what it must be like on Blue Moon. If most of them were based in the US, they'd probably be stock piling weapons and preparing for a revolution right about now. 

Manchester City are Peppers not Preppers

[Medellin]

Awwwww did that hurt?

Bit of Germolene will sort you out lads.

When the wounds heal maybe we'll have some more fun when our LFC thread get reinstated over at BM. 

Your post match thread is fun to read tho..

Still NONE of you saw the Bernardo handball before it struck Trents arm.
You Dumb Fucks!

I reckon Guardiola is spending his international break sitting on a park bench, swigging white lightning and shouting at the pigeons.

It would be entirely consistent with his behaviour of the last week or so.

[wheresnemeth]

That last twice is comedy gold

[thejbs]

That last twice is comedy gold

In my head I hear him singing it in high pitch. It’s a crescendo.

[Medellin]

Dunno what all the fuss is about.
Is Pep angry because there are TWO..yes TWO teams between his & leaders Liverpool? 

Lost his shit right there..pretty sure he was screaming fuckoff a few times straight after that.

[Davidbowie]

I don't think that the TAA incident was a handball - but you know what? If it bothers the City fans that much and they feel they've been unfairly cheated then... HA HA HA! Fucking have it!

We were cheated last season when Kompany should have been sent off for a leg breaking tackle, we were robbed by 11mm - that's called karma, so suck it bitches.

Doesn't get any less funny with each viewing....maybe Pep had put money on a 2-2 draw, that's why he was pissed off!

[RobbieRedman]

fuck me that's still giving me the giggles this morning

[Buck Pete]

This GIF is going to go down as the greatest in LFC history along with the Everton fan shouting "FUUUCCCCKK"

Cant stop watching it.

Kompany you biased bitter and twisted mushroom cloud headed ugly c*nt.  F

Pep went missing after his Anfield meltdown, he was found this morning.

The Times saying Pep was having a Basil Fawlty moment. He's made himself a figure of ridicule, at least temporarily.

Someone needs to add sound to that gif.

That's brilliant. He let himself down though, he should have done it right down the camera, it could have been his Maradona moment

So he's moved on from being Mourinho's a*se licker, to getting fully behind City and hating us?  Nice.

[Studgotelli]

Isn’t De Bruyne a Liverpool fan? Definitely played like one yesterday  Unusually poor all round from him

Full conspiracy mode with Trevor Sinclair on the radio this morning. Apparently some random bloke on social media has his own VAR machine and Salah’s knee looked offside. Thought he was going to cry at one point.

I’ve downgraded his overhead kick being one of my favourite goals of all time based on recent evidence that he’s a massive Manc crybaby.

[Yiannis]

In all seriousness, this is how much Liverpool are into their heads 

Guardiola and his assistant Mikel Arteta’s anger was sparked again in the wake of Laporte’s injury in August, with the two coaches wondering how their current options would leave them able to win at Anfield. Yes, that is the barometer.

Also, I'm gonna post an excerpt from this article, https://theathletic.com/1358830/2019/11/10/daniel-taylor-they-built-a-house-to-help-lure-pep-but-what-will-city-do-when-he-hands-back-the-keys/ , which I find a bit too much (probably an understatement) the lengths they go to attain their targets. Also speaks volume for our bald friend if that was a potential deal breaker.

I noticed that, at least he's decided to use the VAR monitor.

It really is and caps the whole thing off perfectly. Did I imagine it or he really sent sarcastic kisses in fast forward at the main stand after they were on his back for acting like a bitch?
