***City vs Bitter London T*** Official Match Thread***

[dick dastardley]

Sick to death of getting decisions against us that are blatantly fucking bent. The ball had gone before there was even contact a coming together.
We're gonna get screwed second half

[Nick]

Fuck off rag Taylor. Also sounds like I'm in the minority and not like me but Ederson is taking a risk there and he was on a fucking yellow and again doesn't save the pen.

1) why is out defence so much worse than last year with the same players (bar selling zinch to our rival and not replacing) answer: never playing the same back 4

2) why the fuck is bern at left back getting skinned by saka in some weird back 3 shit

Everyone picks:

Walker dias laporte ake

[sheblue]

Silva deserved his yellows.
He is not a defender.
Shouldn't be put in that position it is not necessary.

[Blue Jam]

[quote="blues2win"]Agree with everyone. Put on Laporte Ake at left back. Not sure who I’d bring off. Bernardo or Gundogan presumably. We’re hitting too many long balls down the flanks. Not keen to play from the back with that defence of course.[/quoteid take Haaland off for Alv

[Nick]

Shaunie - never a pen

Even Ian Wright disagrees

[Mase]

You know you’re being fucked when Neville tells it how it is.

Their bloke did exactly the same thing on Mahrez a minute earlier but there was no yellow for that. Which is odd but in no way surprising.

We’ll win this.

That bastard Taylor should get jail for his part in corruption. He's a criminal. We have been very average against 12 man arseholes and we'll be down to 10 men if they get their way.

[johnny crossan]

No other team would have that penalty awarded against them. No other referee would award it. Just more blatant and sickening corruption.

[Harry Dowd scored]

The consensus is Laporta should come on with Ake at LB, let’s see what, if anything happens.

The standard of refereeing is abysmal this season.

I don’t think one Arsenal player or fan called for that penalty. They were all focused on whether the ball crossed the line or not.

The referee clearly has been told to make no mistakes with Arsenal decisions after last week.

Incidents like that between players happen in lots of games every week and penalties are never given.

[Indianablue]

Tight game, Silva not working out at left back IMO. Arsenal look dangerous, we need to step up if we want to get anything out of this game. To be honest i think Arsenal are playing as well as we let them.

[Dimples]

We’re seeing a new take on the rules every week now, and always against us.

‘Clear and Organised’, does anybody honestly think that there isn’t an agenda against us?

It has been there for a long time which is why I have said many times that what Pep has won is extraordinary.

This season it has gone up a few levels. This season they are not even trying to hide it.
The MU goal, the penalty and the yellows tonight...
Even Pep will not be able to circumvent this level of cheating.

Disagree. Ederson committed himself, arrived late and clattered him

Hope you are right. But it needs to change.

[Indianablue]

How the fuck can Arsenal edge ahead if they get a draw. That idiot woman shouldn't be alloed to comment

He certainly did.

After the striker got his strike away. Since football began, that was always the rule.

Did Edersons tackle affect his strike?

No.

[CTID Hants]

Please bring Laporte on and put ake as left back.

Silva is a disaster there.

Should have changed it after 10 mins.

Absolutely SB, and he hasn't changed it, watch us go down to 10 men now

[gmercer1]

No changes. Wow
