So I take it we played well then. Can't argue with 6-1 and Mahrez nowhere near the pitch. Up the blues!!!

I'm more than happy with the amazing football and 5 goals I've seen today. You're starting to sounds like a spoiled rag


a classic line from a super fan who thinks he’s better than everyone else.... fuck off!
who said i’m not loving the football? it’s amazing but it would be even more amazing if we could finish as well as we can create. we need to be ruthless if we are going to win the champions league and at the moment we are blowing too many chances - we won’t have 15/20 if we play juve...


top of the league with 29 points, +29 GD. Not only defending the title, but on pace to break last season's records. We're 3rd in the league with shots/goals ratio. But that doesn't really matter since we are taking 25% more shots than the team with the 2nd most shots in the league. Made this just for you nige:

I'd be worried if we weren't creating chances and our play was static (like the past 1/2 seasons under Mancini/Pellers). But we're playing the best football I've ever seen, and almost all of our players are hitting top form. 6-1 win at home, top of the league, averaging 20 shots and 3 goals per game. So cheer up, because football doesn't get much better than this for a supporter.

We all say you’re not loving the football based on al the fucking moaning you do every single day. Seriously I cannot remember anyone more miserable on here even when we were proper shit.

I think we are the greatest team this country has ever seen, we would batter any team Fergie had. If we keep this up the rest will crack.

i don’t think pep is clinically depressed or miserable, do you?


As the manager, it's his job to keep the team at a high level. As a fan, you're supposed to enjoy your team playing brilliant football and winning by 5 games at home.

As brilliant as we were going forward we were easy to cut through at times. We had 8 shots on target and they had 6. I think Pep, a perfectionist, was pretty pissed off with the number of chances they carved out.

Nothing with our conversion today, 6 goals from 18 shots.

As per the table above we're steadily creeping back up to last season's levels.

Pep knows we could unleash hell on a team, I think even he is getting very excited, I also think Raheem is going some way to ease the Kun issue down the line. Plus no KDB again Scary thought.

You should spend more time watching City than the dross that is written on this web site.

Anyone else who went to the game today notice Pep look up in disbelief when the mass exodous of all the early leavers started at around 83 minutes ? Was a fucking embarrassment seeing those wankers leave en mass when the team was playing beautiful football and pushing for more goals absolutely no excuse for it on a sunday afternoon 3pm ko and the roads quiet as fuck ......... FUCKING EMBARRASSING !!!

I saw him lose it with the 4th official over the state of the one sided bullshit display. I enjoyed Sane’s goal though even if most missed it.

He gave the early leavers the proper stare like only he can pal. Ref Lee Mason is probably the most inconsistent ref in the PL , he is also shite ! :lol:

We're watching the best football our club has ever produced and the scariest thing is, for our rivals, there is still room for improvement. The only reason for a mass exodus is for an emergency, how the fuck can you not want to stay until the game is over and give Pep and the players the ovation they deserve? It's astonishing to me.

I left on 73 minutes today, as I was due in work at 1651 at Piccadilly. I had to swap jobs, cajole and fiddle to even get to the game. I even had to run a bit to get to work on time. I don't feel embarrassed at all about it.

When you win 6-1 at home , any person finding fault with the winning team is an Arse.
