***City vs Dirty Rags Official Match thread***

[Mase]

Will Pep say anything though about their first goal? Or are we going to do this typical City nice guy approach as usual?

Sky Sports' Peter Smith at Old Trafford:

"Wow, that is a big call! The view in the press box watching replays was that Rashford was offside because he went for the ball.

"The City players look furious.

"This is a decision which is going to be scrutinised for days to come!"

[london blue 2]

Gutting. We’re not that good anymore.

[gmercer1]

Fallen off a cliff

[Michigan Blue]

Rashford was practically doing stepovers

Disgusting cheats. Rotten to the core.

[nottsblue]

BT as yet not commented on the offside

[blues2win]

If Rashford hadn’t been there Akanji could easily have cleared it. If that isn’t interference I don’t know what is. Completely changed the dynamic of the game.

[zuricity]

Blame the ref as much as you want - fact is we have been shit this season .

Defense has never ever been settled and that’s all down to the bald genius we have at the helm .

Totally disagree, we were controlling the game until the officials decided that offside doesn't count anymore for one team only. Blatant pushes in the back from Casemeiro and Fred don't get given as penalties.

If gashford didn’t touch the ball and didn’t obstruct the goalie , how is it offside ?

Or am I not seeing something that you are ?

And if you think Baldie has played a blinder with picking out defenders then I have no more words to say .

What are you talking about Carl ? That is absolute nonsense. Rashford was two yards offside when the ball was played through He didn't stop knowing he was offside, he ran on to try and take a shot at goal. He was interfering with play. further, he was offside on the second goal too . No VAR check for both of them. That is cheating.

[gmercer1]

Rashford even pulls his left leg as if to shoot. You can’t get anymore blatant

Will Pep say anything though about their first goal? Or are we going to do this typical City nice guy approach as usual?

100% nice guys approach.
I often feel that we live as a club in Shangri La, everyone plays fairly around us, the media will recognize how good we are as a club because we won so many things, there is no agenda and so on.

They are bending the rules of football against us and we just sit there and take it.

If the club want to push our own fans away, they’re going the right way about it.

Wonder if it was the other way around what the decision would be?
Answers on a post card.

[ruralblue]

I feel sick. Clearly offside and a decision like that would not go in our favour. We were robbed but we were also shit in the first 35 minutes playing sideways and backwards.

Is 3 points each and a 7 - 5 aggregate any consolation?

[Mase]

Will wait to see what Pep says..

[Sparklehorse]

That happens when you stop playing after your first goal…..

We didn’t stop playing, we were in total control and I think we would have got a second. Then the officials gift those cunts a goal and then we were always going to struggle with the momentum against us.

Pep needs to come out now and say it how it is. Did it even go to VAR or did the linesman change his mind so it was just given.
Come on City it’s time to fuck these cheating cnuts over

[Outcast]

The dodgy refereeing is just sugar coating our abysmal form. We're not consistent and all over the place. Pep said in the presser he saw it coming from preseason, well fuck me why did you allow it to fester. We need to revamp the midfield, get rid of Silva and even possibly Gundo. Time to bring in young hungry players and start rebuilding.

The only way we are winning the title is by miracle or fluke.

So so happy?

You actually saw the fat fuck linesman say to Ratface that he wasn't offside and he was changing his mind. Terrible decision and lacking any integrity.
