Who wants a city player or manager to fail?

Do we really need a poll?

This is getting really weird lads

Buzzing with that.

Liverpool have Everton away on Saturday - not expecting anything more than a Liverpool win, but live in hope.

Much needed win.

Akanji being injured is no big deal as he’s been utter shit even when we were playing well .

Ake injured is a pisser though as Rico is not the answer .
Grealish played well in that position but he still needs to shoot more and not to dwell on the ball when he’s lining up a shot .

The piss take at the end of Newcastle was as bent as bent can be - laughable .

Much better tonight. Still we lost a few silly balls and there is still some fragility there which would be punished by a better team. Its probably only natural after the run we've had.

Still a clean sheet and we're going in the right direction.

They could’ve overtaken us and sat in the top 4, just shows how this season is panning out. And, to think, they had the best defensive record prior to tonight.

Good to see Pep changing his tactics and allowing defenders to do their job, instead of forcing them to push forward into their final third.

Palace away next, hopefully the same again.

Not sure about Akanji, Ake looked fucked. Take the win, deal with issues after.

Very good result, still exhibiting stupid errors that could have got Forest a goal, but great to see Silva, Doku and KDB get their goals. Good to see 2 points clawed back but still theirs to win

A win at this stage was what mattered. Forest could and should have scored at least one or two goals which would have made it more interesting. But they didn’t and a clean sheet is always welcome

Also it was good Haaland didn’t score and the other players got in on the action which is something we’ve badly missed lately

Woods put the 1 on 1 wide but Ortega made a couple of really good saves. He played really well.

I doubt that I will ever get over his brainfart in the cup final but overall, he also stops a fair few. Be interesting to see how Ederson reacts - competition should always be a good thing

No Akanji should never play centre back. He can cover right back until we buy a new one

A shame for Ederson. He kept the Spurs game down to 4-0 when it could have been six or seven.

I'm an awful cunt like that.

I take great adulation in every city victory :D

Some are more prolific at posting when times are bad would you believe.

It's almost as if they like it.

I think people like that are proper cunts.
But that is only my opinion of course 8-)

The fucks that got to do with how beautiful Grealish is and how mint it is to see him back? Let’s stay on topic.

Ortega over Ederson is very interesting if you ask me.
It shows something happened behind the scenes, but also, you should let players leave when it is the case: Ederson, Walker etc.

If the Saudi are still interested, he should be shipped out in the winter.
It is quite funny, because he had a decent autumn, one of our best players this season, but I think he was unhappy he stayed and it shows.
