Yeah this is done I was amazed people even thought City would drop points they always win out yesterdays result was irrelevant as we were already behind them anyway.

I just don't understand how these lot are still this motivated to win every year.

That will do me.
Only im not a gambler Id put everything i own on 115 winning out now.
Brighton away can be tricky, but they are making it look like a walk in the park, deflected goal and non free kick aside they were winning this easily anyway.
Thats part of the big problem, they usually win at a canter, no running yourself into the ground, no injuries blah blah

One good thing about being out of the title race is not experiencing this sinking feeling with City winning.

Good health to the Arsenal fans out there.

When you think what we have to do to get a free kick. And then he gives that.

CS111 · « **Reply #1406 on:** April 25, 2024, 08:32:39 pm »

You cant even enjoy watching them as 95% of their games are so one sided, its usually attack against defence.
Boring as hell for the neutral.

Brighton 0 - [2] 115+ Cheats; Foden deflected freekick on 26' - https://dubz.link/v/jw895c & https://twitter.com/Cityzen_Jnr/status/1783578668461142302

^ Foden awarded the freekick for falling over / losing his feet - no actual contact with an opponent

It’s really amusing in a bizarre way. And given the alternative of Arsenal winning the title, as others have said it’s almost meaningless given the charges against them.

smicer07 · « **Reply #1408 on:** April 25, 2024, 08:34:10 pm »

Arsenal are going to regret that performance against City. Had a chance to beat them and decided to take a point. Silly.

Boggles my mind too. Guardiola is a freak I guess.

Surely after 4 in a row, there has to be some drop off next season but then again Bayern and Juve have clocked up 5+ in a row so why not them?

It kept it in their hands which they threw away against Villa.

Comes down to the Tottenham games now.

If Arsenal win on Sunday, then Spurs are probably going to be out of top 4 race by the time they play City. Spurs will walk the ball into their own net in that game.

They're professionals, they want to win. Its going to be 4 on the bounce this season, another double, names in the record books

Yep, loads of us got hammered on here from the Arsenal worshippers but it'll fuck them, got to take chances like that when you get em or at least try to. A draw isn't the worst but playing for it from kick off is weak, especially when they had a reserve defence and keeper.

Caps4444 · « **Reply #1420 on:** April 25, 2024, 08:38:22 pm »

Arsenal feeling clever holding City to a 0-0 draw, that’s what cost them.

When we were toe to toe with City in 19 and 22, we didn’t beat them in either of those seasons. The one time we did beat them was when we won the league.

It just frustrates me that the media never mention the charges, it's all hush hush, whereas with Everton and Forest it was all over the news.

Carragher on USA channel team to win CL is the team with 115 charges Man City.

Yet on Sky he never ever mentions it like ever.

It helps that they have a way of playing which is a cheat code in the Premier League (Arteta trying to copy the blueprint). Keep the ball all game and the opposition get bored chasing it. Their quality (and open chequebook) does the rest. We have to dig deep for every victory.

They don't have it their own way so much in Europe. We had them right under the cosh in the second half only a month ago.

Agree with a lot of comments on here, I've seen this same story twice before and it doesn't well. Think this is why we self imploded after the Man Utd game as we know what happens next. Good luck Arsenal fans.

Just a shoutout though to the muggings who moan about VAR. Clear as day from the Foden 2nd goal the issue isn't with the technology, it's with the people who run it.

darragh85 · « **Reply #1429 on:** April 25, 2024, 08:44:30 pm »

Is it only 3 nil?

Glad that game raising over rated twat isn't going to be our manager.

This feels set up for one of Guardiola's "Brighton were so, so good" interviews after the game

While it’s morally better of course for Arsenal to win, City’s stroll to another title despite the Sky hype about an alleged “race to the title” proves that real action has to be taken against them. It is just so boring and meaningless.

It’s actually a relief not to be the ones hoping they’ll slip and I can just watch the snooker instead.
