*** City v Leicester - official-match thread***

[london blue 2]

That ref is a cunt, he is totally responsible for our attitude, determination and desire all of which he fucked up for us big time.
That cunt has us battling with the rags for fifth. Sack the ref.

?????

"The ref is totally responsible for our attitude"

The ref is responsible for his decisions.

The players are responsible for themselves

i think you missed the point

[Mase]

McManaman and the sheep shagger talking absolute bollocks as usual after the match. Fuckin pair of idiots!

Why are you watching it Mase? Sherlock Holmes is on 119

I'm going back to Making a Murderer now. Picking up tips on how to pretend I didn't murder the pair of them once I do.

Utter cowards.

Sorry I was being sarcastic.

Having a pint in city Square and you wouldn't think we have just had our arses handed to us on a silver platter. Happy jokey smiley lot here. Wankers don't understand that we may have lost the league today.

Fair play to Leicester and their fans. Top performance from both.

[edge275]

Pellegrini is a complete braindead.

I blame the players.

Listen Manuel I'm not interested in your horseshit excuses. Take your hook and sling it up your anus.

[s1ty m]

Lost it big time too.

[stevefromdonny]

I told you that playing yaya would fuck us up today, he should not be in our team from the off, bring him on 20 mins to go, unless theres someone with only one broken leg and if so bring him on instead because he couldn't be as slow as yaya

The manager doesn't run about on the football field.

[Tim777]

Wanted to lose plastic fans? Their surely jumping onto Leicester's ship now...

They'll make top 4, but unless Leicester get an investment boost, they're likely to be subjected to a Southampton-style raid in the summer for players like Vardy and Mahrez - so those plastic fans will be wasting their time imo.

[aaron bond]

Our defensive abilities are abysmal. In three years, we have gotten progressively worse and there is no sign of improvement.

Yaya has increasingly become a passenger and yet we make him captain every week. I will always be grateful for what he has done for us but we have to accept he has limitations now.

We are so predictable each week that every team knows what we will try to do. Yet Pellegrini still doesn't change anything.

We have been hammered by Spurs, Liverpool and Leicester this season - 2 of those games at home. That is completely unacceptable for a squad of our calibre. Pellegrini can have no grievances that he has been ditched as he clearly cannot rectify the mess we are in.

Referee was not great, but I've seen worse. To blame that performance on refereeing decisions, is to put your head in the sand as to what has been happening all season.
It's true Leicester aren't great but they are a very good team. TEAM.
If you insist on giving teams like this the early goal that allows them set up as they would prefer, then you are always going to be chasing scraps.
We don't look like we have s plan and haven't done for quite a while. There's no drive, no cohesion, no leadership.
We do not look like we have a team capable of winning a league. Certainly not a fit one anyway. Too many of this bunch are either past it, were never up to it, never will be up to it, or just don't fancy it.
Pep will have his work cut out for him.
Our passing has gone to shite. I fear at least half of the ones you expect to stay do not have a football brain up to Pep's requirements.
We are always capable of one off performances but even those have not been up to the quality we saw a couple of seasons ago. We need leaders back on the park. Apart from Vinny, where is that going to come from.
Having said all that we've been in worse situations at later stages of the league before. Who knows. Either way there is a lot of clearing out to be done this summer.

Silva twisted his ankle and a doubt for next weekend.

Pellegrini asked whether Pep announcement affected the players. Doesn't want to answer but says it would be easy to say yes.

[City64]

We were utter wank . Leicester have the desire , the work rate and confidence to actually win the league they give everything . Most of our team downed tools at 2 nil , bad day to be a blue . Absolute no excuses apart from that rag cunt of ref Anthony Taylor .

I never want Silva to be injured but there's no doubt he's been shite for a long time now. I'd prefer he have a rest for a game or two considering his current form.

[RodneyRodney]

That's our 7th defeat - the league is gone.
Partly due to the f*g bent red bastard with the whistle, partly due to Yaya being lazy past-it tub of crap who doesn't give a s* any more, and partly due to Pellegrini being so damn blind that he can't see it.
Bye bye Yaya(...and a couple of others) , byebye league, byebye MP.
Hello Pep
Hello next season.

[branny]

I'll be gobsmacked if we get anything from the Spurs game. Our level of performance has been way off for most of the season especially against the top 6.

Hasn't affected the fuckign Bayern players has it !!!

The reaosn we are shit is down to Pellegrini.....he keeps yaya in the starting line up , he bought the shit defenders.

His team...his tactics....his bastard fault.

FUCK OFF.

Nice post. The ref was appalling though and he is a rag. I know him and he pretends to be an alty fan. I hate him with a passion and therefore my judgement is clouded where he is concerned.

I agree about the passing.. Sorry Mase but Kolarov was shite. Why does he pass into a space without looking. Get your fucking head up.

I am so pissed off at being beaten by Sunday league tactics and a team of half decent players. It makes me think that I could coach a team and beat city. It's shit.
