Now I know this may sound like an old broken record, but could you imagine if he'd done that under Liverpool? It would have been headline news lol.

maybe just a case of the BRITISH broadcasting corporation catering to its international readers...

It's the imagining him doing it for Liverpool bit that I'm struggling with :-)

Fully deserved and another step up in his development at City.

Frustratingly sloppy. Sure, I'm writing this whilst pissed about the game but it's been on my mind this entire season. If he'd been Balotelli, he'd been hated by so many on here and it would've been highlighted over and over again.

Needs to cut that shit out. His age is no excuse, as the EDS guys are not doing that.

echoes my sentiments exactly.

aside from the match in Seville and being homegrown what exactly has he contributed all season?

Apart from Aguero and KDB; what have any of the players contributed this season?

10 goals and 9 assists.

Was he any sloppier than Silva? Than Aguero? Than Iheanacho? Than any of the cunts out there today?

Yeah he's contributed a lot, haven't claimed anything else and don't agree with anyone who claims he hasn't, but he's fucking sloppy. And again, it's not about today's game only.

And FWIW, if Silva keeps this up there's little point in keeping him on the pitch either. Thing is, the way Silva is playing now is out of character from what we've seen previously. Sterling has been like this for most of the season. Don't know if he was like this in Liverpool though. It's basic things like shielding the ball and passing the ball in not excessively tight situations. Which Silva is failing as well btw.

Was one of the few that gave a shit and tried his best. Wasn't his day.

agreed
the defence and yaya were far worse. in fact, if they'd played with raheem's enthusiam we'd have been fine.
bunch of cunts

Raheem was shit today. If Navas was fit, Sterling would be benched.

Was he really any worse than the rest of them? I thought he at least tried.

No he wasn't. I was just posting on topic. Hart was the only one I wouldn't fucking bollock or drop. No hunger or desire from them. The work rate was shit and it's not difficult to work out. It's schoolboy lump it to the quick man tactics.


Anthony Taylor has just left the ground in his Utd shirt with a large brown envelope

He tried but he lacks quality. He isn't good enough to play for us. He is not a good enough footballer. Navas would play ahead of him, as would Nasri and KDB.

His contributions are down to his speed and energy. He lacks quite alot in the attacking realm.

Thought he was one of a very very few that actually looked like they wanted something to happen today. At the start of the season when we were running at teams and he was on the left with Navas on the right he was good. He's 20 ffs! He'll be fine

Haha! That kind of stuff winds people up on here but I've seen you come back with similar to think it's hilarious. Question, are you related to Steven Avery?

Wasn't amazing today but at least he looked like he cared.

Sadly that's the best compliment any of our players can get today.

Of course he'll be fine, I sometimes wonder do people on here actually watch football apart from City games.

I can still clear as day recall Raheem making absolute idiots out of both Kompany and Hart to score a wonderful goal against us a couple seasons back. He showed composure, poise and great technique to hoodwink them before slotting home. He's all about pace though, riiiiight.
