City v Crystal Cloggers officially the Match Thread

[Pretty Boy Lee]

Joy to watch today. One of only a handful this season where we were really exciting to watch. Yet we’re still in the mix at the top. God I hope we find form this season, well romp it if we do.

[Beefymcfc]

Any point in a MoTM thread?

Oh yes, I’ll be watching.

As sublime as his passes are, I think Kevin must be one of the worst corner takers I saw.

For all that he brings to this team. I will give him this one.
You can find a fault in everyone if you look hard enough.

We have found form. Just need to keep it now!

[Blue Jam]

My thoughts on this match are negative. We've not had this sort of pressure for a long time.
Even though our form is so much better than fmit has been for a year and a half, my money is on us dropping 2 or 3 points so the red scum and red scum can laugh at the egg on our faces.

Come on City!

So 5-0?

I do so hate unwarranted optimism

Corrected for accuracy

City scoring four goals from set-pieces against a Roy Hodgson team is quite remarkable (credit to Cocacolajojo, who sent me this observation via whatsapp).

I liked the hunger to get the ball back when Palace had it. Relentless hunting in packs.

How's he doing these days, iirc he was in a dark place before the world went tits up?

I think me bitching to my brother all game about us winning corners is feckin pointless helped tbf

Cloggers not a shot on target fucking disgusting team

Still get pissed off with these ultra defensive teams who come to not play - what is the point. Took our chances very well tonight some real quality finishing. Villa will come and play though fuck knows when they last played?
Starting to wind ourselves up nicely. Well done boys

Spot on reminds a bit when the rags used to catch up teams like the Geordies after being behind the top teams, wonder if we could do this

[john@staustell]

Fuck me.

I typed the same into Wattsapp for Gundog's worldy.

There's a smell about City that we've all seen before. Just saying.

Yep

But keep it quiet - let the Red media keep discussing whether Rags or Dippers will win the League. (Or in some cases Leicester, anybody but City basically)

[littlebig]

Masterful display yesterday. Everything is clicking into place and the players look hungry. Fair do’s to Pep.

If we continue in 4th gear we will win the title with ease. Kun to return soon should help.

Defence looks impregnable which is a huge improvement on last season. Dias some player and Stones resurgence is an absolute joy

He's doing fine, but has become a dad again so is quite busy with two little ones at home. Doesn't have the possibility to watch as much City as he would want to, so is asking me for updates via whatsapp during games.
