More on KDB...

Kun needs to look for him. I think this is also part of Kun's problem. Defenders don't expect him to pass when he's in or around the box.

These days I don't expect the penalty decision to go our way EVER.

[Dimples]

NBC saying it was not a pen and a good save as we see them switch to the side angle and foster whack Sané's foot.

seems like they're saying its good because Forster did get a touch prior to hitting Sane's foot.
is it still a pen if you take out the man AFTER getting the ball?

What I take from this is that I will place a bet that the Chavs get a minimum of 1 red card tomorrow.
Chavs are better than the rags who needed a red to beat Sunderland.
Logic says the Rags will need at least 1 red for Chavs tomorrow and they will be given it - have no doubt about that.

FYI this is what us folks in the US are seeing:

OK, I've taken one for the team. Backed Saints at 5/1. I haven't won a bet since the City comeback to beat Spurs in the FA Cup about 7 years ago.

A win for City is in the bag...

We have looked decent but without final product. Hopefully we'll stay patient and we'll get there. No doubt.
Ridiculous peno shout. Ref must've thought Sané's last touch was keeper's. Shocking all the same.
C'mon City. Think we have this.
S'ton have been very bad

[blues2win]

Kevin and Kompany excellent.

[gmercer1]

Haha not a yellow on Silva!!!

[mr_nool]

Again, how is that not a yellow for the foul on Silva?

Good bet. You have backed the team with the extra player.

[PrezIke]

how is that not a yellow

[Wooders]

refs bent as usual

[Saul Goodman]

Kevin De Bruyne's first half by numbers vs. Southampton:

100% tackles won
91% pass accuracy
8 crosses
2 chances created
1 shot

[littlebig]

Some of the shit that Silva gets! It's like WWF at times.

[gmercer1]

Haha fuckin ell no way should this ref be payed after this match!

[Hazy2]

No yellow for 2 shirt pulls ref a yard away, that is the agenda there, no yellow no pressures to stay away from another tackle. Fuck off holddle both hands you cock sucker said nothing when it was the other way.

[Dameerto]

Talk about onesided refereeing.

[Saul Goodman]

Silva shouldve played in KDB there. Took too long

[Dameerto]

Stop the press, we got a freekick!
