Cancelo for the 5th. WTF? Can we stop playing him in defence, please? Lad is terrible at defending. Attacking, hmmmmm.

Only downside to tonight’s game is the rags are guaranteed European football next season.

There was quite a bit of trepidation prior to the game and some of my lads were absolutely shitting them selves with our defensive injuries. Once I seen the side I was very much relaxed, sort of understanding that Pep had tried to ensure we played the game high up with plenty of recycling the ball. Yes, they had a few chances but we nullified them on the whole.

Superb performance from Kev, ably assisted with a full team performance that really stretched one of the PLs stingiest defences (4th in the PL).

Brilliant win, well done to all those involved.

Fantastic night, one big problem……Raheem Sterling……he gave the ball away continually missed an absolute sitter and scored when he literally couldn’t miss. I’m sorry to introduce a negative element but his performance was so startlingly bad it has to be called out. I hope we never see him in a City shirt again absolute garbage. Cancelo was shot yet again, otherwise a fucking brilliant performance by everyone else. Love it !!!

He missed a few again but his pace, positioning, running power and energy is absolutely vital to our performance - you need to be pretty myopic to just see the wasted chances.

Conference? That’s an absolute bonus for me.

CITIDHANTS would like to say “you are a wanker”

There’s loads of us wankers on here tonight so you are in good company .

Lucky you are not deaf as well as short sighted

Any City fan who didn’t enjoy that match needs to go to Specsavers. Come on. Huge match and a makeshift defence. Great response to the massive disappointment in Madrid especially by Kevin. Keep it going Lads. Blow some bubbles at West Ham.

Probably Europa. They are 3 points ahead of West Ham. And let’s assume we beat West Ham, it’s more likely the rags will finish 6th

Another assist and stretched the play with his runs. Prefer him on the left, as I like Walker, but has done well for such an adaptable player.

Not quite Kolarov, but I like him.

Self flagellation, you’re allowed, mate

That’s a shame, when Rags dropped into it there was a big change in the finances, near enough quadrupling the money received. Good money there but still not enough to cover their dividends, financing and player acquisition.

Pep says ‘tough’ for Fernandinho for Sunday. Laporte had a nasty bang on his knee. ‘We’ll see’. Might be Rodri and Ake with Gundogan or Bernardo playing deep.

Where we have to wait-out, not sure we would want Fern there after tonight anyway.

and then there were none apart from Ake

Antonio’s the danger man. Need to take care of him. On his day he’s a real bully and handful.

[sheblue]

Yes the defence is a big worry now ahead of Sunday. Looks like Laporte out. Which is a big blow as he played very well tonight.

Not to tempt it but he usually drops off at this stage of the season. As long as we do the same as we did tonight and play the game high in their half, I’m fairly confident.

Hammers will give us a game, and no away game is easy, but we do seem to have what it takes in these situations.

You are wrong CTFG, Sparklehorse wrote a balanced post starred with celebrating the win. I will not be calling Sparklehorse a wanker whatsoever.

Critising Sterling in context and also Cancelo fine, I have absolutely ZERO issue with that. You know what pisses me off is your little fag mate air dropping his needy pathetic snide cuntish at best one liners and fucking off again until there is a chance we MIGHT fuck it up again.

I cannot even fathom how his mind works, its almost like a cyber form of self harming, I seriously hope that is not the case in real life.

I repeat I am NOT calling people out for critising players when they have fucked it up, I will and have done so myself, I then move on I don't labour the point repeatedly.

Show me one post in this match thread where NT expressed any joy for an away 1-5 win which is a great and extremely important win. I would say check for his last ever positive post, but that would be absolutely fuckng pointless.
