***City v Southampton FA Semifinal Official Match Thread***

[Pretty Boy Lee]

Haaland, Doku, Semenyo and Cherki for all the remaining games please. Nobody else should be in, even on their bad days one of those 4 will score or assist.

Nico G great strike and so happy for him.

Foden is on the end of two seasons of shite with a decent month in there somewhere. He’s one of us and I want him to come good, but he’s been given time like nobody I’ve ever seen. Shades of Michael Johnson this season.

We used to slag off the rags and all belonging to them for being entitled. Nothing is a given in football. We've achieved unbelievable success under Pep and I've been a critic at times. We can all have a moan but we have to enjoy the highs ffs. Pep's not going to be here forever but his achievements for our club will.

Can I please point out that I detest Pep as a person, I think he is a self entitled elitist twat. I will celebrate when this excuse for a human being has left our country. I detest his views & his inappropriate behaviour. That is what I believe. I have supported City since 1964 but have standards. This person is not a fit & proper person to represent City. End of.

No Harry you can not point out who you detest. Btw i am a City supporter since 1959. That gives me the right to tell you young Urchins off.

How are you on one thread moaning that people are arguing, and then you're purposely trying to wind people up? Why don't you use the foe button instead of bullying people? It's absolutely pathetic at this point.

Had no idea Danny Dyer had joined the forum and taken it upon himself to decide what people are allowed to feel.
Apparently, if you’ve got a personal opinion on Pep Guardiola that doesn’t fit the approved narrative, you’re suddenly less of a fan, or worse, labelled elitist.

Honestly, what’s happened to this place, mate?

I'd like to keep defending Phil, but at some point it'll have to stop. Nowhere near it for 90% of this season. The drop off has been huge from the season he carried us to the title while Kev was out. Rumours of illness, family issues.. if the club wants to keep secrets then it'll just flame the rumours more.

A few years abroad might do him well.

Another chance to shine for him yesterday and he was largely anonymous. Fuck knows what the issues are, cannot solely be family I'd guess from the outside. Should be leading from the front. A big summer coming up for him and the club. I don't think we carry him too much longer especially if we go and get Anderson. Sort it out City.and Phil

Him missing the World Cup might be a decisive moment. He can find the hunger in that.
I think he needs a kick in the head of that magnitude.

I think going to the world cup will do him more harm than good.

Agree with both of you. Doubt Tuchel does though

I think you've misunderstood. Nothing against a good argument, I am completely against stupidity and hypocrisy though.

Like when someone makes a statement about being opposed to elitist twats and then makes an elitist statement in the next breath.

It's all a bit of fun and I think you forgot how to take a joke at this point snowflake.

I don't know how FIFA can allow a Competition to be staged in a country at war.

My biggest concern is he goes and believes he deserves it and continues the path. Yeah, for Jackie it was the opposite, I get what you are saying, but I hope Phil has a fight in him. Either way, this summer something has to change.

[Indianablue]

TUCHEL if he chooses to use Foden it will be sparingly. I'd be very surprised if he gets a game. His form is way off what he was and well below international or even PL standard. His first touch is average, his confidence is way down and he's struggling to find space . When he does get the ball, he's easily dispossessed and knocked off it. Looks weak. I'd have said he was ill

"Snowflake" If anyone mentions pink or blue hair, or anything anti left you're the biggest snowflake in the world. Nice to see that it's just "a bit of fun" when it suits, but if Carl or I want a bit of fun it's a ban..

I'd be very surprised if he's picked for the squad. Not even anonymous these days - you notice him when he gives the ball to the other side

As stated above, he's had a ridiculous amount of chances.

Macclesfield beckons

My man I completely ignored that shit from you after many attempts to get a rise out of me on it because I thought it was stupid. Is it a memory thing or are you attempting to rewrite history with a classic "I'm rubber, you're glue" defence?

Snowflake is the one who can't take it, you are getting offended on someone else's behalf FFS.

I mean, if you really need a "safe space" I can talk to my brother for you.

I don't need to say anymore. Glad you've proved me correct and it's there for everyone to see.
