You doubt it yet everyone that's replied on this board has said they're annoyed at it....and it's ten times worse for the ones in the stadium that had to watch Shrek celebrate in front of them.
Annoyed and humiliated are two wildly different things.
Look man, here's how it is. Like it or not, Rooney played well. Granted, that was half our fault as I couldn't really understand why he was given so much room. But he played well, that Rooney tonight was a better player than the rags have seen for a few years. Pep is Pep, he loves football and respects the big players especially when they turn out a performance like that. This was obvious when he showed that love to the Bournemouth lad last season when he played well against us after he lost his kid.
That's Pep, that's what he does. It doesn't diminish his commitment to us, or what he does.
It isn't the game it used to be. Football as we grew up with is gone, has been for a long time. It's no longer local lads playing for their boyhood team, it's a glamorous sports industry where none of them grow up hating anyone else. For us growing up, it was more than just a game. Now, it really is just a game. Do you think aguero goes home and sleeps in a city duvet with pictures of Colin bell on the wall? It isn't like that anymore. The closest we have to all that is kompany and as much as he loves the club and fans, he doesn't have the blood that somebody like rosler has. It's all very different now and tbh I find it mental that people don't realise it's all been taken out of our hands and moved on, for better or worse, because we don't have a say in the matter anymore. That's modern football.
I know he let kolarov go but you need to calm down mate.
