I just cannot, just cannot, listen to anything that Micah says anymore...I mute the fucking TV or You tube channel when he starts talking shite.

Hes embarrassing to listen to.
THEY SAY SWEARING IS DUE TO A LIMITED VOCABULARY. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF WORDS, BUT I STILL PREFER "FUCK OFF" TO "GO AWAY"

Arsenal only dipped because of the Saliba injury. When Neville rightly pulled him on it asking why that would stop them beating West Ham and Southampton he still wouldn't budge. Neville again destroyed his argument saying they can't say they've lost the league because of 1 injury. Do all teams not get injuries and some don't just concentrate on the league.

Unfortunately he gets worse by the week- I'd far prefer Nedum as a pundit who always talks sense and comes across as a true Blue. I'd heard somewhere Micah was a Gooner, He's seemed to totally prove it recently.

He didn't say they 'only' dipped becausd of Saliba, he said Saliba was missed when he was out of the team. He said there were other reasons that they faltered but it was a yes or no question put to him. I thought he stood his ground against Neville who likes to dominate any discussion. Micah does talk bollocks but so does Neville.

He's quite embarrassing to be honest. Heaven knows why they have him on so much. Almost (almost) yearning for the days when there was no City representation at all!

I also thought Vieira was talking utter shite mostly too - maybe why he's just failed lamentably as a manager.

Meanwhile, sad to say but usually Roy Keane is the only one talking any sense and telling it how it is. I feel his managerial failings were probably on the motivational/man-management side of things, rather than knowledge.


Who constantly surprises me is Given.
He was last night on MOTD 2 and while Murphy was talking his usually nonsense, Shay was talking sense about both of the games yesterday. He seems biased towards us, but makes it look very professional.

Something that Micah is missing, sadly
the odious Murphy was actually trying to be complimentary for once, he actually described Walker as "England's greatest ever right back", Akanki was "brilliant", Dias "the outstanding PL CB" and he continued by praising Foden & Laporte for playing well and not whinging etc. Strange really.


I am amazed you manage to decipher what the neanderthal is saying, JC.
here's his script from Chris Bevan

Ratboy is a pot of poison and also incredibly thick, Micah can be insightful but is too ready to resort to laughing like a donkey to please his paymasters. He even tipped the dippers for the title this year to keep them sweet.

Never thought I’d agree with Neville. Micah looks well out of his depth there. Almost like he made a shit point but then instead of saying, “yeah actually, you’re right” he just doubled down on it and made his point seem even worse.

I actually (hate to say it) but agree with what TAA said recently. Once City get going we can’t be stopped. We’re just relentless and that puts pressure on teams like Arsenal, even when we’re not playing them.

Changed my opinion a bit about him after what he said. He isn't braindead like Van Dyke or Robertson.
He talked a lot of sense out of the blue.

Old news

I said it months ago he's a donkey and cringe. I may add, Sinclair is thick and emotional.

Zabba , Nigel de jong and Onhuoha are great reps for us. The latter is becoming more predominant in media, genuinely think he's one of the most balanced articulate pundits out there.

Shout out to Vincent Kompany

The Mirror have published a table without Erling's goals and we'd be struggling for top 4 13 points behind Arsenal.
Do these morons not realise that we wouldn't play with 10 men so we'd have some sort of replacement and we might have scored 1 or 2 of his penalties without him even with our record.
These are the same people who were telling everyone he'd made us a worse team not so long ago.
Interestingly we've still outscored the rags even without his goals.

So apparently Haaland isn’t that good and anyone would score that many in this City team.

But also we rely on Haaland and we wouldn’t win the league without him.

Interesting..

I don't understand them. I thought he was the wrong player for us?

You've gotta love the spin out there they are hating us every minute. That table of us without Haaland's goals as a prime example. Were we not the league's top scorers without him and winning consecutive PL titles? But but but. Expect things to become even nastier come tomorrow evening

Modern sports journalism is just about counting clicks and shares, content is there to generate headlines for that sole purpose. We are a civilization in steep decline with a written culture aimed at debasing 10 yr olds.

Haaland and KDB will have had a punch up. Grealish wants to go back to Villa

And City will be docked 50 points

The pain these cretins must go through gives me great amusement.
At first they thought we wouldn't win anything because of the mighty, superior rags.
Then they thought the Sheikh would get bored and leave us in a financial hole
Then they hoped the rags and dippers would reclaim their rightful place at the top table
Then they tried to destabilise us with FFP
Now they are trying to bring bogus charges from a decade ago

It still hasn't sunk in truly for them yet. We are going nowhere. Our owners are here to stay long term. We have the best manager in the world. We have the best team the country has seen for a generation, if not ever. We are self sufficient financially and have been for some time and those revenues are only going to keep growing.

They can cry all the tears they want. Whilst we send out the YTS lad to B&Q to get another tin of brasso to keep all our pots shiny
